GENE SIMMONS 'Roast' To Be Taped Tonight

November 27, 2007

The "Gene Simmons Roast" will be held tonight (Tuesday, November 27) at the Key Club on Sunset Blvd. in Hollywood, California.

The event — which is said to be a benefit for "wounded warriors" — will be hosted by comedian Jeffrey Ross and will feature "roasts" by the following celebrities and comedians:

Brian Poshen
Carrot Top
Dave Navarro
Craig Gass
Danny Bonaduce
Eddie Griffin
Fred Armisen
Jim Norton
John Heffron
Lisa Lampanelli
Ralphie May
Shannon Tweed
Steve-O

Each "roast" focuses on a particular celebrity as its target. A panel is selected from the celebrity's peers and current, popular comedians to comically point out the foibles of the personal and professional lives of the celebrity in question.

The "Gene Simmons Roast" will be in a similar format as the one for Pamela Anderson, going from 8:00 p.m. to approximately 10:00 p.m. PST and air on A&E sometime in April 2008.

Commented Ross: "I'm roasting my childhood hero... Growing up, Gene was my favorite member of my favorite band. But that doesn't mean I'm not gonna take him down hard. What should i say about him???"

A poster for the event can be found at this location.
