Twisted Sister

DEE SNIDER PLAYED HIS CARDS RIGHT

Hard to believe, but Twisted Sister singer Dee Snider has been with the same woman- his wife- for 46 years. That has to be a record in the rock world. Dee and his wife Suzette met when she was 15 and he was 21 – for Dee it was love at first sight. They married in 1981 and Dee admits when the band was really hot in 1984, they nearly broke up because his ego got out of control. But he came to his senses, and they went on to have four kids. Suzette is still a knockout – they went out to dinner last night in West Hollywood. Dee is delighted that Ukraine’s anti-war anthem is Twisted sister’s hit We’re Not Gonna take It…

DEE SNIDER CAN’T TAKE IT ANY MORE

Dee Snider, 62, says he retired his band Twisted Sister after their 40th anniversary tour because head banging no longer agrees with him, “My neck has had it.” He wanted to put an end to the band while it was still good. His new music is less physically aggressive than heavy metal, but he still dresses the part – head to toe leather in the summer! Dee and his wife of 36 years, (!) Suzette, have 4 kids and two grandchildren. Suzette was a costume designer when they met and she is still quite a beauty.

DEE SNIDER ISN’T GONNA TAKE IT!

Twisted Sister’s Dee Snider, 61, has not lost much of his boundless enthusiasm and physicality when it comes to heavy metal concerts. He appeared at the Bloodstock metal fest in the UK and gave it all he had. You may recall, Donald Trump (Dee’s Celebrity Apprentice pal) used Snider’s song “We’re Not Gonna Take It” early in his campaign. Dee called Donald and told him he couldn’t support his political views (for one thing, Dee is pro-choice) so he didn’t want his song used. Donald said OK and they remain friends. Most astonishing thing about Dee is his amazing HAIR!
