'Gene Simmons Family Jewels' To Air In The U.K. Via BIOGRAPHY CHANNEL

November 9, 2006

According to The Sun Online, KISS bassist Gene Simmons' "Osbournes"-style reality show will be screened in the U.K. by the Biography Channel.

"Gene Simmons Family Jewels" features the rocker, 57, at home with his partner ex-Playboy centerfold Shannon Tweed, 49, and their kids Nick, 17, and Sophie, 14.

The family show will be in sharp contrast to his image as a hell-raising rock star who claims to have slept with more than 4,600 women.

The 13-episode series, which will be shown on the digital channel in early 2007, has strong echoes of MTV's hit show "The Osbournes" which revitalized the careers of rocker Ozzy and wife/manager Sharon.

The U.K.'s Channel 4 showed Gene's last series "Rock School" earlier this year.
