A judge has ruled that a former hairstylist for the rock band KISS can move forward with his wrongful termination lawsuit against Gene Simmons and other individuals associated with the group.
In his Los Angeles Superior Court lawsuit, David Mathews alleges he was wrongfully fired from his job as a hairstylist in 2022 after he was incorrectly accused of being the source of a magazine article talking about lax coronavirus protocol within the band.
Mathews maintains he urged the defendants to “force” Fran Stueber, a guitar technician for co-lead vocalist Paul Stanley, to get medical attention and that he told Stueber in front of some of the defendants that he needed to go to the hospital.
