Ace Frehley is alive

Rumors of former Kiss guitarist Ace Frehley’s suicide began to circulate around the Internet on Friday, Feb. 23rd, but it appears they turned out to be false. Instead, Frehley is said to be in good health and still working on a new solo studio album and even a couple of film projects.

Reports started to circulate the Internet on Friday that Frehley had committed suicide by taking pills, and was reported dead at 2 a.m., Friday, Feb. 23rd. However, there had been official report from Frehley’s people, KISS, or even a credible news agency.

Internet encyclopedia Wikipedia also listed Frehley as dead from suicide, but stated more information concerning the death had yet to be reported or confirmed. It has since removed the death information.

Frehley is said to have taken the news of his death well, reportedly responding: "I don't know how this ridiculous rumor got started."

Ace Frehley (who’s real name is Paul Daniel Frehley) was born on April 27, 1951, and was one of the original members of the iconic rock band Kiss. Frehley left the band in 1982 to pursue a solo career. He rejoined Kiss in 1996 for a reunion tour and new album, but left again in 2002 during its Farewell Tour.
