Gene Simmons is one of the biggest egomaniacs/douche-bags I have ever seen. I have never seen anyone with a higher opinion of themselves, not even Donald Trump. Gene is very smart, though, and I'm sure this is just a "stunt" to get more viewers so he can get ever richer. Music wise, he has no room to gloat. For the most part, he and the rest of KISS suck!!! (Please, I know this is just my opinion, so don't freak out, Kiss fans).
