erich hess.
the name brings forth images good natured tom foolery or of cute interaction with elidih on big brother 2..or was it 3? who didnt fall in love with him on big brother? i mean,after all....who has ever had a bad experience with meeting erich hess? the internet is full of tales of people meeting erich and his putting them through college or paying off their house. to his faithful,erich hess is second only to jesus when it comes to selfishness. but what if i was to tell you that erich hess just as a fantastic pr department?
first off, make no mistake erich hess rakes in the dough. yes,atomic war bride doesnt have merch you can buy. but atomic war bride IS on a major label,and erich does invest in his lady friend's label. (more on that later.) the band is always on tour,so the cash is always rolling in ,in spite of playing smaller venues. think about it, which brings in more money? an arena partially sold or a club completely sold out? erich hess may play the part of an idiot,but he knows what he is doing. on average,atomic war bride releases are made on the cheap. 20,000? when their contract is 50,000 per release. thats 30 Grand in profit before the music even drops. and oh boy,the music.
atomic war bride sounds like it was as recorded in 1984. there is no excuse a major label release should sound so shoddy. simply put,erich hess is pocketing the label's advance.
sure. erich may drive a piece of shit car...on the outiside. but that 1959 rolls silver cloud rat rod is worth an easy 1 mil.
he has at least 30 1959 cadillacs. a spyker c8,several buggatis and A 55 mercedes sl 500 gullwing not to mention his own cruise ship. erich hess is NOT hurting for money
the duke of winchester may look like a piece of shit,but its worth millions on the scrap market. which is where hess bought it.
remember that time erich hess married to ada von wannemaker?
the pair divorced years ago with the understanding that ada took the daughter and vanished. but is this truth?
ada von wannemaker had her demons. to say otherwise would be dishonest. but did erich exacerbate things? an anonymous source claims that erich hess was pretty mentally abusive to ada. there were several instances of him holding her ex boyfriend's suicide over her. he would regularly hold guns to ada's head. in fact,he was rarely without at least one pistol in his waistband. (most of the times it was a pair.) the source claims that on many occasions a very intoxicated erich hess would regularly force his wife to play russian roulette with him. the source goes on to say that erich was also the source of ada's noticeable weight loss. he would make it a point to demean her and flaunt the fact that groupies could always replace her. is any of this true?
the truth is hard to discern. erich hess is currently dating the head of permanent reminder records,selene cassadine.
she has yet to mention erich's less than honorable behavior. in fact,she defended his purchase of a soviet era rocket train.(maybe she hoped it would kill him?)
but the pair does not live together,nor spend all that much time together. could there be a nefarious reason? or does erich only try stuff with people he knows he knows will take it?
which brings us to marlena hess. the offspring of erich and ada. even billy khan is in his son's life after the split between he and andrea. in fact,he seems to even get along with daniel's step father,payton. while erich has zero contact with his daughter. he doesnt even pay child support. this is documented in new york court documents. for years he has used his vicious legal team to delay payment for his daughter. so yes,on all fronts erich refuses to acknowledge the existence of his daughter. we live in a world where billy khan is a better father than someone. so,send billy some flowers or something. on the other hand,erich does dote on dustyn blue. going as far as jokingly adopting the man. its well known that his friend's children adore erich. cassie summers and karoliena's children go as far as calling him uncle. (in fact,he is the biological father of karoliena's daughter,eris.) it seems erich only likes family when its convenient for him...or if he doesnt have to do very much.
so is erich hess the scumbag we've painted him to be? granted,a lot of this is just hearsay,but lets look at the facts.
erich hess is well known for gunplay. many hotels have had their tv's shot in a weird tribute to elvis presley. many venue owners have seen erich wielding a large revolver backstage..shooting strawberries for some reason. the nra has courted his membership for years. (but to his credit,he never joined.) its never been stated for the record why he and ada divorced. so make of that what you will. could it be she is scared to face the wrath of erich's legal team? they must be good because just from what we know: erich should have been jailed long ago. his disregard of his daughter is concrete. anyone can view the public record of the court cases. so lovable weirdo or dangerous pyschopath? the choice is yours.
