Gene Simmons, the frontman of the rock band KISS, has revealed that he slept with 4,800 women during his wild rock ‘n’ roll days.

The 66-year-old musician stated that he did not do drugs at that time, but he certainly did s**.

When asked about the number of women he had slept with, Simmons said, “Did I sleep with 4,800 women? So they tell me. I did have the Polaroids to prove it, oh yes.”

Simmons has been in a long-term relationship with the former Playboy model Shannon Tweed, and they finally tied the knot in 2011.

They burnt most of the Polaroids as a sign of their commitment to one another. Simmons stated, “Most of them were burned. Shannon and I got together with them and we had a ritual.”

The musician admits that he never knew what a big deal it was to have children before he and Shannon had their own.

They have two children, Sophie, 23, and Nick, 27.

He stated, “I never cared about it, I didn’t want to get married or have kids. But when they were born, I was at the hospital crying like a 12-year-old girl.”

Simmons is known for painting his face black and white, sticking out his freakishly long tongue, and wearing outrageous outfits on stage with KISS.

He acknowledges that his children were embarrassed by his on-stage persona.

He said, “When they were younger, they would see me performing on stage and say, ‘Oh God, there’s dad sticking his tongue out again.’”

KISS was formed in 1973 in New York City by Simmons and his friend Paul Stanley.

The band, along with current members Eric Singer and Tommy Thayer, were inducted into the Rock ‘n’ Roll Hall of Fame in 2014.

The band has sold millions of records, and Gene feels that they are “the luckiest b******s in the world.”

Simmons attributes his success to his belief in himself.

He stated, “I’m a confident person. I’ve always been that way. I don’t really care if somebody doesn’t like me, or if somebody doesn’t agree with me, or if somebody thinks I’m too loud, or too this, or too that. I’ve always had a very clear idea of who I am.”

Gene Simmons is not just a musician, but also an actor, producer, and entrepreneur.

He has appeared in numerous TV shows and movies, including the hit reality show “Gene Simmons Family Jewels”.

He has also produced and starred in movies such as “Detroit Rock City” and “Runaway”.

Simmons is proud of his Jewish heritage and has always been vocal about it.

He even released a solo album in 2017 called “Anomaly” which featured a song titled “Isaiah 53”, which is a chapter from the Hebrew Bible.

He explained, “It’s the most contentious chapter in the entire Bible. That’s where the Jews and the Christians separate. The Jews believe one thing, and the Christians believe another thing.”

Simmons has also authored several books, including “Me, Inc.: Build an Army of One, Unleash Your Inner Rock God, Win in Life and Business” and “Gene Simmons’ Tongue: A Tongue-in-Cheek Guide to a Happy Life”.

Despite his wild past, Simmons has settled down in his later years, stating that he is a changed man. He attributes this change to his family.

He said, “I’m a family man. I’ve got a wonderful wife and two great kids, and that’s what it’s all about.”
