The Vinnie Vincent Forum - Where Freedom Rocks!

Vincent h cusano has another name boys. Yes virginia lynne. Yes crystal craft.

He comes up with some purtty names.

Purdy Polly

I've wondered why it's always a female name? Why he never tries to portray a male?

Meredith, denise, virginia, crystal. Yes it's a trend. He either dresses up in drag or people think his glam look is drag because too many reports that he dresses in public like a women but to be cautious it could be he is attempting the glam look.

Well, he does look feminine lol. He could pull off the old lady look quite well. If I had no clue who VV was and I seen him in drag, I would assume he was a real woman

But if it is all just about glam look...more power to him.

It's his Ankhilles Heel?

Robert said somewhere that v would come to his house and visit the bathroom and use Roberts wife's make up. Of course this is the glam era but this was before the album came out and before they started going glam. From what I read the glam thing was actually created for the album pictures and then they stayed with it.

I'll never forget an interview from around the first VVI album where Vinnie stated that he was trying to be the daughter his mom never had... something along those lines. Kinda odd considering he has twin sisters.

Obviously it was more than just glam rock for him...

Maybe he's a metro sexual, who also likes to cross dress at times but remains manly. Lol. No complaints here. Just wondering what his intentions really are...if they go beyond the whole just doing it for glam look

In the grand scheme, all of that doesn't matter. He can chop the thing of and be a pin cushion for all I care just as long as he is mentally all there and he is happy.
All of us have weird issues with our vanity.
Sadly, We are seeing that he might not be healthy.

Good post poserboy

Life's a "drag"...

Vinnie is sexy in drag/glam. I prefer him that way! But true, his mental health doesn't seem good at all. Where are his whereabouts now? With family? If so maybe they can get him to seek help. I feel if he did, we would see some new things from Vinnie. A better, healthier VV.

A few of us know where he is and always will know.
We will protect this information to hopefully preserve some of the happiness that may still linger inside of him.

Well if he is with family, should persuade him to get help. If not, highly doubt he will seek help on his own.
Loneliness will get to a person after so long...

What does he do Under that name, Crystal Craft?

I sometimes wonder if he "supposedly" treats his fans the way he does, then how does he treat his family? I do hope he is well but he does not seem to be..the more of these "three sides of the coin" things I hear and back posts on this forum and other various google-ing the weirder it gets...the ALL female fake names (aside form Spyder) and seemingly different persona. I sound like a jerk but all of these insane stories are consistent from person to person. I still just wanna hear him shred. Shred hard. I know that the mystery behind this guy is completely engulfing. Once you start looking into it.....you CANT stop!

Fuck Three Sides... ... very biased and not fair.

I kind of agree. They bash him really hard and NEVER acknowledge Vinnie's genius as a musician..Though some of their guests are interesting to hear talk.

Three Sides of the Coin are assholes. Listened to them once...and never will again.

All they do is bash VV straight up. Never even acknowledge the good things about him and what he did for KISS. Purely focuses on the negatives. Screw them.

I totally agree.

Vinnie has 4 amazing talents.

1. Ruining his own career and burning bridges
2 amazing guitar player
3. Amazing song writer
4. Amazing singer

TRUE !
I really really like his voice , it can be sweet and hard rocker at the same time.
Baby Oh and Back on the streets demos are killer with him on vocals.

Those two demos with him singing are better than what's on the debut album IMHO.

totally !!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think his voice more commercial too.

He did sing the opening part of back on streets on the album.

Yes but we need more

I love both VVI albums, but will always believe Vinnie should've been the lead vocalist in his band. Not only do I prefer his voice, but I can't believe his ego allowed a singer center stage in his own band.

He certainly came to regret that didn't he?

He paid the price for wanting mega high vocals.

It's pretty much the number one question to ask him why he hired a singer.
I suppose robert maybe able to answer it

Those demos are crazy good.

He did mention he may sing in gfh so I wonder why he brought back robert

Maybe he is insecure of his voice, but IMO his voice suits his music way better than other singers.
Maybe Gene could have done a killer job.

LOL Brother!

I had seen an interview where Vinnie stated he didn't like his singing voice.

But I do like his voice, he should sing more on his songs. But perhaps he just has more of a thing for his guitar playing. We all have things we're good at, but just not passionate about.

"Back On The Streets" is especially good.
