U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice may have attended just four rock concerts in her life, but the rock band Kiss apparently thinks she is pretty cool.
After a day-long international conference on Iraq, Rice was dining Thursday evening with Swedish Foreign Minister Carl Bildt at a 19th-century villa when a call came in that Kiss was in the Nordic capital on a tour and wanted to see her, aides said.
The U.S. group had heard Rice was in town.
“It was really fun to meet Kiss and Gene Simmons,” Rice told reporters on her plane en route to Iceland on Friday.
Simmons, who sings and plays bass, is famed for posing while wagging his long tongue.
