Who is Gene Simmons?
Well, if you’re someone who grew up in the 70s, 80s, or even the 90s, chances are you've stumbled upon the booming sounds of KISS blasting from your parents' stereo. And if that's the case, you probably already know exactly who Gene Simmons is. But for those born after the face paint revolution, buckle up because we're about to tell you about the fascinating life of the Demon himself.
Gene Simmons is an Israeli-American musician. He co-founded the iconic rock band KISS in the early 1970s. Born in Chaim Witz in 1949, he's not just the fire-breathing, blood-spitting demon on stage. He is also the band’s bassist and co-lead singer. His powerful vocals and stage persona really feel like absolute force.
However, we bet many of our readers are not aware of this - KISS is just one facet of this multifaceted rock legend. “Wait, really? How much talent does this man possess?”, you must be thinking. We know, right?
Gene Simmons is a savvy businessman. You know who built the KISS brand into a global phenomenon? Yes, the demon himself! And there’s still so much more to tell about him! Mr. Simmons is also a reality TV star, and has appeared with his longtime partner Shannon Tweed in their show Gene Simmons Family Jewels.
And let’s not forget his acting career! Gene Simmons has appeared in many popular films like Runaway and Kiss Meets the Phantom of the Park.
So, there you have it. Gene Simmons is way more than just a rock and roll icon. Whether you know him from his thunderous bass lines, his iconic stage persona, or his shrewd business ventures, there's no denying the lasting impact of the Demon!
Is Gene Simmons's Hair Real or Toupee?
Okay, here comes the moment you’ve all been waiting for. Not long ago, there was a photo circulating on the internet in which the Demon can be seen bald. The picture was released by his band’s manager. Upon seeing it, many people started to believe that Gene had actually gone bald. And that he wears a hair toupee to conceal baldness and keep his on-stage persona intact.
However, Lordhair, being Lordhair, decided to do some research and discovered that the picture in which we all saw Gene Simmon with a shiny, bald dome is nothing but him donning a skull prosthetic. Now those who don’t know, it’s basically a bald cap. In 2019, the legendary musician himself joked about those who were under the mistaken impression that he was genuinely done with his beautiful long locks and now wears hairpiece for recovery.
Still skeptical? Here, check out this Tweet from Gene Simmons:
Even if the rock and roll icon happens to be bald, he likely spent thousands of $$$ to keep his hair situation a SECRET. Meaning, the true story behind his hair will probably remain hidden unless there’s a catastrophic stage mishap. (Which we really don’t want to happen tbh)
So, we all can say that Gene Simmons's long hair is as real as his charisma on stage. He also surely doesn’t rely on a men’s hair toupee.
