Gene Simmons, when not performing in concert, starring on his Family Jewels reality show or masterminding something like a KISS lawnmower or toilet brush, likes to write books. In fact, Simmons even has his own book distributor, Simmons Books/Phoenix Books, to go along with his own comics distributor, Simmons Comics Group. We thought Simmons had lost the ability to shock us after that KISS toothbrush that played “Rock and Roll All Nite,” but when we visited the God of Thunder’s Yellow Pages-like Web site today, we quickly learned that Gene still has the ability to surprise. In a news post dated November 11th, Simmons boasts, “I’m up to my neck writing my next book: Ladies of the Night – A Historical and Personal Overview of the Oldest Profession.” For those not jiving with Gene’s lingo, he’s writing a book on prostitution. And it’s not just an overview of the history of prostitution; it’s also a personal overview of prostitution, meaning we’re all going to be getting an eyefull of dirty details about Simmons’ family jewels that we could probably live without. Simmons anticipates finishing the book by the spring.
