GENE SIMMONS: Third Season Of 'Family Jewels' To Debut Next Month

A&E network has announced the third season of "Gene Simmons Family Jewels", which continues to follow the KISS bassist/vocalist and his family in their daily lives, will premiere with back-to-back episodes on Tuesday, March 11 at 10:00 p.m. ET/PT.

According to Reality TV World, third-season episodes will include fans finding out if the 4,800 women Simmons claims to have slept with all occurred before his relationship with Shannon Tweed began in 1983; a Gene Simmons Roast in which he gets verbally assaulted by friends and comedians; the first-ever KISS concert where the band performs as a trio; a behind-the-scenes look at Simmons' role on NBC's "The Celebrity Apprentice" before he was fired by Donald Trump; and various family trips to both Hawaii and Mexico.

In other news, Gene Simmons was a guest on BlogTalkRadio last week with hosts Stephen Baldwin and Michael McCullough. Check out the 20-minute interview at this location.

Simmons said in a recent interview that he is attracted to reality television simply because he is Gene Simmons.

"I'm in the Gene Simmons business and anything I want to do that appeals to me, I do and I don't really question it much," he said. "I did ('Rock School') because I wanted to do it, it's sort of like if you're lucky and blessed in the way I have been and continue to be, life gives you a menu and you have a choice. Most of the people on the planet don't have any choices. You know, you go to work at jobs you hate, you wind up having to go to your mother-in-law's house, the church forces you to get married. I refuse to lead my life that way, I do what I want to do ... I pick what I want from the menu of life."
