Gene Simmons Family Jewels: The Reality Show’s Most Memorable Moments
Gene Simmons Family Jewels was a wholesome family reality TV show that aired in the early 2000s. Even though Gene Simmons was a member of KISS he was a docile father and husband who just wanted his family to enjoy one another’s company. The series was loved by many due to its real-life scenarios that could resonate within anyone’s own family. Gene was pretty funny. But I would argue his children stole the show. The Simmons’ were the perfect mix of Rock and Roll and Leave it to Beaver. And I just love walking down memory lane.
The KISS legend had a way with his children. He reminded me of my own father, just with a lot less make-up. Gene enjoyed handing out advice to his two teenagers, but sometimes, it came with a side of embarrassment. But as my dad always said, “I’ll get smarter as you get older.” And he and Gene were not wrong. Gene and his Playboy wife, Shannon Tweed, decided to give Nick a talk about the birds and the bees, with the high schooler wishing he could be anywhere else.
The former model noted that the only exercise that Gene does occurs every second night, causing his son to turn bright red. Shannon shared that she lived in a town called “Dildo.” Her son, Nick, poetically notes, “This is where I jump off a cliff.” Shannon found herself in a laughing fit as she stated that she loved grossing her son out. Nick giggled and said, “I’m never coming back. This is the end of my run on this show.” It was clear that the parents were just enjoying razzing their son. And the interactions also made viewers laugh.
