Legendary glam rockers Kiss spoke about world affairs in an unexpected late-night meeting with US politician Condoleeza Rice.

Secretary of State Rice learned she was sharing a hotel with the rockers after bumping into them in the executive lounge of the Sheraton Hotel in Stockholm, Sweden on Thursday.

Rice was in the city for an international conference on Iraq, while the metal quartet was in town to play a sold-out gig on Friday (30May08).
