This year in 2010 we are lucky enough to see once more the great works of Alice Cooper when he tours the world with another rock legend Rob Zombie. These two guys together are called the Gruesome Twosome which is pretty on the money considering that they both have interesting ways of expressing themselves. Not many people are unaware that Alice Cooper is also a legend on the screen as well as when he is singing his lungs out. This year Alice is appearing in a horror movie which is perfect for his nature in the movie Horrorween which you might think would be a movie based on the Halloween holiday tradition. Like many horror movies before this it would not be the first time that the slaughter happens during this holiday. Keeping in mind that it will be a horror comedy with some very talented actors and actresses then you might be inclined to watch it. Alice is known to be in many good movies and other TV appearances so you can bet on this movie being something worth watching.
In 2009 the comedy and almost musical movie called Suck about some Rock and Roll vampires who were living out their lives in the modern day world. this movie was another cult classic which really spells out the originality and fun that is created with any movie that Alice Cooper is involved with. In 2006 Alice appeared in one of the episodes of Monk which was a TV series which gave the impression that the main character had some sort of mental malfunction which somehow worked to his advantage. The year before this episode however Alice played an important piece of his path to providing the masses with entertainment. Metal a Headbanger’s Journey was a documented film about the life of rock and roll stars, their triumphs as well as their tragedies. There was also one particularly funny episode of That 70′s show which Alice appeared in that really would have helped boost the ratings for the already popular show.

Alice Cooper has credited golf as having played the major role in helping him to overcome his alcohol addiction. He has even said that when he took up golf it was a matter of replacing one addiction with another. This 2007 autobiography was titled Alice Cooper, Golf Monster. Alice Cooper has participated in a number of Pro-Am competitions. He plays golf six days a week and has a handicap of three or four.
The Alice Cooper Celebrity AM Golf Tournament has been held annually since 1997. All proceeds from this annual event go to the Solid Rock Foundation. The Solid Rock Foundation was formed by Alice Cooper and his friend Chuck Savale in November of 1995. The Christian goodwill non-profit organization is dedicated to helping troubled teenagers and children.

You will also see Alice Cooper appearing in television commercials for Callaway Golf equipment. He has been a guest on a Golfer’s Travels with veteran British player Peter Alliss. He has written the foreword to the Golf for Dummies book written by Gary McCord.
Cooper has in recent years become more public about his religious beliefs. He is a born again Christian. Asked by the British press how a shock rocker can be a Christian, Alice Cooper replied that it is easy to drink beer and trash hotel rooms, but real rebellion is being a Christian. Cooper regards politics and music as being mutually exclusive. He has always kept his political views to himself, and has at times spoken out against other musicians who have promoted or given opinions regarding politics. He has been quoted as saying that the musicians who were touring and campaigning for Democratic presidential election candidate, John Kerry during 2004 were ‘treasonous morons’. Amid the controversy that followed Alice Cooper released a statement stating that the treason was against the ethos of rock itself.
