According to New Zealand's 3 News, DEF LEPPARD are using the hype behind new movie Rock Of Ages to launch a new t-shirt collection. The British rockers have teamed up with designers at Lyric Culture to create a line of stylish rock gear. Singer Joe Elliott and his bandmates will launch the collection at an invite-only luncheon in Hollywood on 7 June - a week before the movie debuts in US cinemas. Models will parade the t-shirt line at the event and the band will discuss its inspiration for the designs.

As reported yesterday, Def Leppard have recorded new versions of their classic tracks, 'Pour Some Sugar On Me' and 'Rock Of Ages'. The songs will be available on iTunes, Amazon.com, and all other digital music retailers June 4th.
