About Gene Simmons
Known as not just the bassist and one of the lead singers for the rock band, Kiss, Gene Simmons is a television star and entrepreneur, the business and marketing brains behind the band. Born in Haifa, Israel as Chaim Witz, Gene Simmons migrated to America as a young boy with his mother. He became an elementary school teacher after graduating college while still plugging away in bands on the New York music scene before teaming up with Paul Stanley. Gene's love of comic books and horror films helped him create his character's makeup and persona for "The Demon" in Kiss. The band released their first album in 1974 and Gene has remained with the band ever since, pushing them to legendary status and marketing hundreds of items under the Kiss banner. He also stars on his own reality television series on A&E with his longtime girlfriend and their two children, "Gene Simmons' Family Jewels."
Dressing up as Gene Simmons
Call "Dr. Love" to get some coaching on your best baritone speaking/singing voice before you put on an officially licensed Gene Simmons Kiss mask, done up in Gene's signature black and white "demon" makeup with his infamous 7-inch tongue hanging out and black, rooted synthetic hair styled into a kabuki-like top knot. Design your own costume with a black bodysuit, gauntlets, a cod piece, and of course, some vintage '70s Kiss platform boots in silver or black in men's sizes!
