GENE SIMMONS' 'Family Jewels' Heading Down Under

December 3, 2007

According to C21 Media, Australia's Bio channel, which AETN International has on pay platforms Down Under, will debut KISS bassist/vocalist Gene Simmons' reality series "Gene Simmons Family Jewels" in the New Year.

Filling the weekly Wednesday 21.30 slot, the series will make its Australian premiere on January 9, offering a look into the life of the KISS legend and his family. It originally aired stateside on A&E.

Simmons' reality show, "Gene Simmons Family Jewels", has entered its third season on A&E. Gene also has an animated show on Nickelodeon called "My Dad the Rock Star".

According to Billboard, Simmons is writing his third book — "Ladies of the Night", a "personal and historical overview" on the profession of prostitution — coming this spring via his own publishing company, Simmons Books. He also has Simmons Comics, with three comic-book series based on characters he's created.

And if that weren't enough, Simmons manages a host of efforts with partner Richard Abramson as part of Simmons Abramson Marketing. Among those is NGTV.com, a popular video web site featuring uncensored celebrity interviews and music videos, in which Simmons is both the chairman and an investor.
