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.
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 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.
