Well…sorta. Last month Mr. Jesse James unveiled a motorcycle he built for Kiehls Skincare. In May, Vanity Fair did an article about the endeavor that Jesse undertook where he likens skin care to motorcycle care.
Sorry, I have to interject here: do you think if Jesse wasn’t married to Sandra Bullock that he’d even CARE about skincare at all? That he’d even know what the hell Kiehls was?

“I’m not metrosexual or anything,” insists James, whose ruggedness—or maybe his baby-smooth cheeks—has gained the charms of wife Sandra Bullock. “But I’m pretty fuckin’ hard on my skin.”
Mhmm.
Well, that didn’t stop Jesse from slapping his name on a Kiehl’s exclusive Jesse James Dopp Kit which includes: Facial Fuel Energizing Face Wash, “White Eagle” Ultimate Brushless Shave Cream, Ultimate Man Body Scrub Soap, Facial Fuel Energizing Moisture Treatment and a deluxe sample of Ultimate Strength Hand Salve for a mere $66.
Anyway, here’s the accompanying video to the motorcycle build. Jesse’s not in it, but the end result isn’t too shabby.

Jesse’s a talently guy and produces some awesome bikes. I’d hate to see him become a joke in the industry like OCC did after they started slapping their name on action figures and lunch boxes.

I have to say, I’m not a big Jesse fan, especially when I saw him cop out on a crowd eagerly waiting to see him at a rally. He was so rude. I now find it hard to respect anything he does.

I can’t help but like Jesse. (maybe its the quintessential bad boy thing…) He’s such an ass at times, but he’s got his teddy bear side to him too, and a sense of humor. There’s something about anyone who has such a rugged exterior but is such an amazing artist!

Damn chicks talking about motorcycles doesn’t get much better than that.

Jesse is definitely an American rags to riches success story. A legend! He could even be considered a sell out… but his “cool” reserve is off the chart so it just doesn’t matter.

I would love to meet Jesse James…he’s a straight up talented builder and yes, he may be cocky but I would probably be a little too if I had that kind of talent!

OK, I like Jesse as much as the next person. He is cool and charismatic for sure. But does this latest venture make him a “sell-out” or is he way past that already?

I hated to see him turn into “Mr Bullock” but it looks like that is happening. Times are tough even in the high end world of West Coast Choppers and OCC. It’s sad to see the rebels and hard core builders selling out to keep their expensive life styles going.
