Yea he had his game face on this time.. That wasn't particularly the case on a couple other vids. I also noticed (as you did) that he had a thicker skin in this bout
Gene is actually a really sweet guy, he took some time out of his day before a concert to visit a young fan who was in hospital who could not make the show. Gene brought along some sweet merch for the young boy to purchase
5:09 "Some people can put it (Gene figure) in their pooper." "All right, settle down, now don't get excited. There's no reason for jail talk, now. Good god, you went there fast." LOL
I've met Gene Simmons in person and I can honestly say he is one of the most honest, kindest, and intelligent people I have ever met. I believe that he uses this "douchebag" persona as a means of selling his brand(s) because it gets peoples attention, sometimes negative. What he said about politics is true. We need to quit arguing with each other and come to compromises. I've been a lifelong KISS fan and have nothing but respect for this guy.
Jonas Salk invented the polio vaccine. THAT’S a genius. Gene’s a smarter than average musician and incredibly successful. But a genius? Slow down, partner.
I don't know where this "Gene Simmons is a genius" bullshit comes from, I suspect a lot of it comes from Gene himself. He's a bullshitter, smarter than your average American but he's no genius.
He is such a very intelligent man, I can't understand people who don't get him. His humor is great, and even what he says has depth beyond many people's normal understanding. And I sit here asking myself why those self acclaimed intellectuals don't get Gene. And then I think if I get Gene I can call myself lucky because apparently I see something in him others don't.
Gene is a smart Man. You can say whatever you like about his ego (which sure is big as hell, He never deny it) but he have his beliefs, he talks reasonably and he is living he's life the way he dreamed. You all sure have the right to not like this man, but you won't belittle his role in rock'n'roll music.
I used to dislike Gene cause I thought he was a complete piece of shit but now he cracks me up. Dude is completely self aware and has a very unique sense of humor.
This is the first honest interview Gene has given in a long time. Usually, he's more character than person. Here he's actually not that different than what he is in person.
It's funny how all these people say "oh I dont like Gene, hes a jerk, hes full of himself " but yet you clicked on the video to watch him so some part of you like how he is.
I will defend KISS as a band for the 1970's. It's fine for people to like KISS. Just Gene's constant ego, shilling and bad takes have chipped away at the KISS legacy over and over.
Gene Simmons is spot on over the presidency of the United States, and the way the voting system works in the United States. He is also right about Hamas and other governments in the Middle East that supports terrorism. The U.S has Trump as their President, simple as that. The U.S President position needs to be respected like it or not.
Gene's cool his ego is healthy he's older and wiser so who gives a shit if his character offends you at the end of the day any offense you take from him is drawn in by your own insecurities that's why judgment is left to the Divine and not to man
Like him or not, Gene seems to be an intelligent and articulate person. 100% agree with his statement about us all being Americans, not political party members. Americans. Also agree with referring to our President as President. I can’t stand the previous one, but I referred to him as President. Thanks Gene.
Stop hating on Gene. You can love or hate KISS, but you must respect the Demon. He is a Jewish immigrant who came from absolutely nothing, he worked his ass off, and he became a millionaire. He serves as an example to all
+maxtrod1 No, I fucking don't have to respect that greedy son of a bitch. Certainly not after he opened his mouth and told sufferers of drug addiction and depression to "fuck off and kill themselves". I don't owe him shit, especially as someone who lost a boyfriend to a drug overdose and has personally struggled with addiction and depression. Here's the bottom line - Just because you're rich and famous doesn't mean you automatically deserve respect.
It's literally a clown hairstyle... Imagine him with like a shorter hairdo, or even like the slick hair back into a ponytail, it would look a hundred times better already. - Some people are so afraid of change. And he's an intelligent guy, actually, he's not stupid. Yet he walks around like an idiot.
Gene actually donates a lot of his money to charities and hospitals. People just don’t get his humor and he is also really wise. He raised good kids too.
I think alot can be learned from Gene Simmons, he knows what he talks about. Some might not like how he speaks at times, but his answers are truthful, and he's not trying to win a popularity contest.
I love it when people get angry at everything he says. You're missing the point, he does this to get a reaction and make himself relevant every 5 minutes. I know he's a twat but he doesn't care and he gets away with it! At the end of the day, he'll be laughing at all the butthurt comments when he is in his multi million dollar mansion!
How happy could one be, who is basically earning money by being an asshole? For not a 10 million bucks, I'd swap with him. He is a sad, lonely old man, who is selling off a dream that he lived long time ago...
Gene seems like a cool guy. Only issue I've ever had with him was years ago when I heard he was trying to say he created the "horns" hand gesture. It's very well known that Ronnie James Dio of Black Sabbath actually learned the gesture from his grandmother who reportedly used it to "ward off evil." Rest in peace Dio, and long live Rock and Roll!
Loved Gene here! I admire the work he puts in and how sick you can see he is of all those who just talk shit all their lives that means nothing! Love ya Gene! Thanx for the upload!
Wow! this is awesome! I am so sorry he lost his mom.... he always took such good care of her.... as he prospered, so did she! LOVE how KISS always honors our Military and America OUT LOUD with NO RESTRAINT and with humility and joy!! Thank you Gene and thank you KISS!
HAHAHAHAHA Good interview! Good interveiwer. He made the already decent discussion with Gene Simmons even better by being witty. And Gene made THAT even funnier by being Gene. I have been annoyed by Gene before. But this was redemption. Im glad I clicked.
What Gene said about Ace being on the road makes a lot of sense. I used to wonder why so many rock stars become addicted to drugs. It wasn't until I performed a stand up comedy act for the first (and last) time that I understood. I was on such a high afterwards that I didn't get to sleep until about 7am. How do you deal with the adulation and feeling on top of the world to silence? That kind of natural high is impossible to maintain.
"Character is not the right word. You're not acting." Well isn't that just the opposite of what you and Paul Stanley have been trying to sell in dressing up to imposters like Peter Criss and Ace Frehley? "They're aren't playing Ace Frehley and Peter Criss. They're playing the spaceman and the catman." .
8:55 - This is the very first time that GS has said ANYTHING that I agree with. Not sure why he had to bring up Hamas, but as a Zionist, I'm sure he can't help himself.
mr simmons seems to be a moderate gentle truthful voice. sensible man. a middle of the road point of view i can understand (doesnt matter if i agree with all points or not)
If the interviewer reads this, I hope you know how much you have grown so much as an on camera personality!!!! You’ve always been genuine and so pleasant to be around. Attaboy. Lookin good!
That's the best advice about politics I have heard in the past two and a half years! Ingenious absolutely right once again at least he's not disrespecting anyone because two people believe different things. We are not each other's enemy they hate us we can bicker amongst each other but when it comes down to it we have to stand United against our enemies. It's a shame we have enemies but we do. They hate us we don't need to hate each other. We need to stick together instead of all this constant stressful mess that's happening. Look the economy is doing okay and things are not getting worse they're getting better so we should just go with that. Everyone has their struggles in life you cannot blame that on the government although people would like to the truth of the matter is we are responsible for ourselves. No one is handed anything for free and if their parents handed them something their parents were the ones who work for it so it was not free. I was homeless on the streets for 12 years! I was born in Beirut Lebanon my parents were killed in the war. I was it that opted and a not-so-nice household. I can go on blaming everything and blaming God for where I was born and the people that adopted me and the government for not helping me and this and that but where is that going to get me? Nowhere and the minute I started to let go of all that and take responsibility for myself oh, my life. 100% better! You do not want people handing you things because it doesn't get you anywhere. What good is if you're handed everything you need and never worked for anything to feel any type of accomplishment? That would be very depressing not knowing what it's like to earn something and they have that gratification. I never took a hand out from the government when I was on the streets. And I'm not saying that you shouldn't if you're in a situation and need help and it's therefore you use it for what it's for on a temporary basis to pick yourself back up and then let it go and move forward don't step back. Remain humble because there are people that have it so much worse than us and there's always someone that has it worse. Just look at how amazing Gene Simmons is but yet speaks so clearly to all of us that do not have the same lifestyle as he does. Because he's human and he knows reality and he works very hard for everything he has. So why not all of us conservatives and liberals put down the hatchet and work together? And I will say for the record I am a conservative despite the fact that I was homeless on the streets with nothing because my core values and beliefs R conservative. I will not sell out my beliefs for money no matter what because what good would it be if inside I felt miserable. So it's put down the hatchet
Well now you had me till that last part, brother lol Powerful? Yeah sure, have you listened to the first 4 KISS albums?? Masterfully melodic bass riffs 🤘🤘
I love what Gene has done for metal but I am typically disgusted when he acts pompous. However, he did end this segment with some deeper wisdom and that’s respectable. Good job.
Genes final words of advice on the political climate is GOLD. Nobody could have said it better beautiful seriously enough bickering were all Americans 2020 is around corner where all one family Democrat or Republican
Never was a fan of KISS, not my era but I don't get all the hate for Gene. Dude is smart and has a great outlook on things, and the political rant at the end was spot on.
I’m down for this American party he speaks of that really would solve all the fighting and that separated Americans with the party system! we should all be one party and vote for who we want so the party doesn’t win the person who got America’s vote wins now that’s the America I wanna live in!
"I don't think characters are the right idea" said the man who's been saying for years that the Kiss make up is not about the person underneath the make up but the character...
He will never admit to himself that he simply came across as a big Dork on the Mike Douglas Show, I was watching it that day with my grandma, we both laughed. The seventies were so much fun.
Yeah, he gave a pretty classy response. You can tell he doesn't like Trump, but he was respectful and logical in his words. He wasn't foaming at the mouth with hate and craziness like most lefties.
The guy's a genius. He does it his way! Such a businessman! He understands artistic identity more that most! He is ELOQUENT! You want this guy on your side in an argument!
This might seriously be the first interview I’ve seen where an interviewer actually knows how to handle Gene Simmons. Huge props to you, man!
Yea he had his game face on this time..
That wasn't particularly the case on a couple other vids.
I also noticed (as you did) that he had a thicker skin in this bout
Gene is actually a really sweet guy, he took some time out of his day before a concert to visit a young fan who was in hospital who could not make the show. Gene brought along some sweet merch for the young boy to purchase
I see what you did there
🤣🤣
I hope it wasn’t the Kiss coffin….
This deserves more likes
🤣🤣🤣
Say what you will about Gene, but he has some brilliant comedic timing.
And he’s at least talented at his instrument.
Paul Stanley: a jerk with a nice guy persona
Gene Simmons: a nice guy with a jerk persona
That's so accurate.
gene simmons is most definitely not a nice guy
Weird thing is I’ve met both quite a few times and they’ve always been very nice, I’ve met them both in M&G and outside of M&G.

"Hi, I'm Gene Simmons, and you're not"
Thank fucking God
HAHAHAH! LOL
OH MY GOD
I'm glad he always reassures me, makes me feel better about myself.
Wasn't he saying that we're not at his website?...
Love him or hate him, he's a genius and tells it like it is. Some days I can't stand him, but I still respect him.
Was thinking the same thing.
I hate him. He makes me feel so unhappy and miserable about life. Just the sound of his voice makes me uncomfortable.
I masterbate to him daily.
Jonas Salk invented the polio vaccine. THAT’S a genius. Gene’s a smarter than average musician and incredibly successful. But a genius? Slow down, partner.
Same.
I don't know where this "Gene Simmons is a genius" bullshit comes from, I suspect a lot of it comes from Gene himself. He's a bullshitter, smarter than your average American but he's no genius.
If Gene goes to the white house, he should go in full make up.
Complete with the blood spitting, that would be so cool.
Also, do the stint with fire.
Gene has an amazing introspective on everything, he's also quick witted, can laugh at himself and he is so smart. He's a great interview.
Most Jewish people are very smart/ just something in the blood/ for real
Say what you want about Gene but he does do some good charity for kids

People just don't get Genes sense of humor
Exactly.
Amen!
Gene always makes me laugh, love his sense of humor.
Because Gene Simmons knows how to speak.
He is such a very intelligent man, I can't understand people who don't get him. His humor is great, and even what he says has depth beyond many people's normal understanding. And I sit here asking myself why those self acclaimed intellectuals don't get Gene. And then I think if I get Gene I can call myself lucky because apparently I see something in him others don't.
Everybody’s hating on Gene just cause he’s sarcastic. He’s just a funny dude. Just listen to the crew in the background.
You have to admit that Gene is pretty hilarious. The part when he said Ace was performing with him was hysterical.
You guys don't understand his dry sense of humor 😂😂
Not gonna lie... It took me a while to catch that up.
I do!!!
Humor is subjective. I pitty comedians in the current climate.
I do im dying!😂😂😂😭 i love it
Some people are goin to be putting it in there pooper Alright now settle down no need for jail talk he went there quick!😭😭😭😭
The more I watch his newer interviews, I slowly start to respect him, he's a really nice guy
"Is it not a thrill sitting next to me?"
He just plays up his ego and narcissism... Doesn't mean it's not real, but he does.
Gene is a smart Man. You can say whatever you like about his ego (which sure is big as hell, He never deny it) but he have his beliefs, he talks reasonably and he is living he's life the way he dreamed.

The first four KISS records are great. Loved em since I was a little kid.
I would go so far as to say that every Kiss record up to Lick It Up is great! With a few exceptions.
And I have to say that Revenge is incredible, even knowing Ace and Peter weren't.
ACE IS YOUR FATHER !
This is the first honest interview Gene has given in a long time. Usually, he's more character than person. Here he's actually not that different than what he is in person.
Such a pleasure to listen to this awesome legend speak and joke around, love him!
It's funny how all these people say "oh I dont like Gene, hes a jerk, hes full of himself " but yet you clicked on the video to watch him so some part of you like how he is.

Because he's human and he knows reality and he works very hard for everything he has. So why not all of us conservatives and liberals put down the hatchet and work together? And I will say for the record I am a conservative despite the fact that I was homeless on the streets with nothing because my core values and beliefs R conservative. I will not sell out my beliefs for money no matter what because what good would it be if inside I felt miserable. So it's put down the hatchet

So he'd send "Canned goods and unbrella's" to hurricane hit areas. What fucking use is an umbrella either during or after a hurricane?
sounds to me like gene voted crooked killary, and odumbo prior to that
8:25 Real wisdom in those words. He is 100% correct.
I'm wondering for how much Gene would sell his wig
50 years of rock and roll, 10 (?) Years of silly hair!
Great Interview by Graham , and gene alway funny as hell whit his acquard sense of humor
How does a random TH-cam Channel get Big Stars to Go on Interviews with them
Damn
Graham: I don't know if they had TV back then
Gene: Right.... xD
I subbed because of the SLAYER poster
I also have met Gene and he was nice as can be.
“Americans should take care of each other..”
What a nice concept man.
He will never admit to himself that he simply came across as a big Dork on the Mike Douglas Show, I was watching it that day with my grandma, we both laughed. The seventies were so much fun.
Gene gave some of the best political advice I have heard in a long while. I was totally not expecting that.
Yeah, he gave a pretty classy response. You can tell he doesn't like Trump, but he was respectful and logical in his words. He wasn't foaming at the mouth with hate and craziness like most lefties.
The guy's a genius. He does it his way! Such a businessman! He understands artistic identity more that most! He is ELOQUENT! You want this guy on your side in an argument!
GENE FOR PRESIDENT!! \m/
