Gene Simmons Family Jewels

WHAT DOES GENE SIMMONS SEE WHEN HE LOOKS IN THE MIRROR?

We can no longer ignore Gene Simmons’ hair. He’s a perfectly decent looking guy with an attractive family, but THAT HAIR! It’s a frizzy helmet/pageboy that appears to be sprayed to high heaven and stiff as a board. What is going on there? Is this the result of a low budget hair transplant or a weave combination? It’s shocking that a guy with all of Gene’s money and smarts should walk around with hair far worse than Donald Trump. A shaved head would be an enormous improvement.

Gene Simmons Gene Simmons Family Jewels Papparazzi Shannon Tweed

WHO’S THAT HIDING BEHIND THE ANTI-PAPARAZZI UMBRELLA?

It’s the beautiful Shannon Tweed, who really has little use for such an item. She and her husband Gene Simmons and their kids Nick and Sophie are accustomed to being photographed at odd times. Their A&E reality series Gene Simmons’ Family Jewels has been successfully on the air since 2006, so intrusive cameras are an everyday occurrence. Nobody loves publicity more than her husband Gene.

ANOTHER REALITY SHOW WEDDING: GENE SIMMONS WILL DO ANYTHING FOR RATINGS

Is Gene Simmons trying to out-do the Kardashians in the fame-whore department? We can imagine how the self promoting rocker is envious or perhaps inspired by the Kardashian steamroller of financial success. THAT explains his sudden desire to get married on TV after a lifetime of being adamantly against the institution. Ratings competition changes everything. At the beginning of this season of “Family Jewels” Gene wanted us to believe he and Shannon Tweed were splitting up. Next he proposed on camera and set a wedding date – October 1 at the Beverly Hills Hotel. Are we running out of ideas? (Above, son Nick, 22, Gene, Shannon, and daughter Sophie, 19)

NICK SIMMONS HAS A WAY WITH WOMEN

Nick Simmons is still filming his A&E reality show Gene Simmons Family Jewels and going to college, but he finds time to date a cute girl once in awhile. Nick is a comic book freak and he released his own comic called “Incarnate” in 2009 published by Simmons Comic Group. Six months later production was halted when he was accused of plagiarism. Presumably, he learned a good lesson from THAT.

KISS musician Gene Simmons’ son Nick does take after his dad in some ways. You’ve seen him on A&E’s “Gene Simmons: Family Jewels.” He’s pictured here leaving a Hollywood club (yes, he is 21) with a beautiful blonde and looks very pleased with himself. Nick is not just a party animal – he is attending Pitzer College in Claremont, California.

Charity Gene Simmons Gene Simmons Family Jewels Kids Shannon Tweed

SHANNON TWEED GOES THE EXTRA MILE

One thing about “Gene Simmons Family Jewels” star Shannon Tweed – when she hosts a charity event, she really gets involved. She hosted an outdoor tea in Westlake for the Cure in the Canyons fundraiser for breast cancer research and she made a revealing speech. Shannon spoke about the need for open communication about the disease. She related that a few years ago, when her teenage son Nick was dating his first “serious” girlfriend, he came to Shannon and told her he was upset because he felt a lump in his girlfriend’s breast. He hadn’t said anything and didn’t know what to do. Shannon urged him to tell the girl immediately so she could be checked. He did, and everything turned out OK. Shannon praised him for sharing the information with her and doing something about it. Shannon also contributed some physical labor for the event. Journalist Sue Facter noted that Shannon was seen picking up tables and chairs and hauling them into the shade (in high heels, yet) when the weather turned hot. Family Jewels has been renewed for a fourth season.
