Kerry King & sunglasses

Why does Kerry King always wear sunglasses in interviews and other public appearances? Is he afraid he will not look as tough without the sunglasses, or just worried people might actually notice how stoned he looks?

The only thing worse is a singer or guitar player who wears sunglasses on stage. Absolutely pathetic.

Sunglasses are fucking awesome for all occassions and times of day, I bet you can't name any other device that allows you to stare down a woman's top constantly from one metre away without them noticing!

I suppose one morning he will wake up and decide he wants to be called K.K. instead of "Kerry King", because well as you say he can do as he wants. Same way Jennifer Lopez woke up one morning and decided she wanted to be called "J. Lo." and then people actually started doing it. Celebrities seem to get away with any kind of idiotic behavior, that would get ordinary people laughed out of town.

What the hell is it to you what the man wears? Jeez, he can wear sunglasses if he ****ing wants.

I'd also be really amused to see you say anything negative about him to his face.

I don't think anyone has ever looked more 'metal' than Kerry King without looking like a total plonker... the guy's cool, leave him alone. He can do what he wants.

Does a chloroform soaked cloth count as a "device"?

Anyway, I have to post this every time Kerry King is mentioned.
