IRL’s Gene Simmons sex tape revealed

UPDATE #3 AutoRacing1.com has learned that the girl in the video, is absolutely NOT ELSA from Frank's. It looks like her; it is not her. Absolutely not.

05/16/08 This rumor is upgraded to 'fact' – in this article Simmons' lawyer confirms the tape's authenticity.

05/16/08 A reader writes, Dear AutoRacing1.com, Just to add to the intrigue and embarrassment…..lostinshowbiz.com reports that "The model, named Elsa, who appears in the sex tape with Simmons is reported to be a paid promoter of a concoction called Frank's Energy Drink, which counts Simmons among its endorsers."

Frank's is also the Official Energy Drink of the Indy 500 and is a sponsor of Andretti Green Racing and 2004 IndyCar Series champion Tony Kanaan. Maybe the recent rash of publicity surrounding FIA president Max Mosley has acted as inspiration to this new and absurd episode. The "sport" of Motor Racing is in a downward spiral and these revelations only act as another reason for people to tune it out of their lives. Bloody sad. Ray Masters

05/16/08 By the looks of this Google search the IRL may have a major black eye to deal with. Seems there is a lot of talk about a sex tape Gene Simmons made in which he stars in it. If true look for the IRL to distance itself from Simmons. Simmons was contracted by the IRL to head up their marketing strategy and it was Simmons who came up with the corny I am Indy slogan.
