SHANNON TWEED On GENE SIMMONS: 'He Does Not Have Sex With Anyone Else While We Are Together'

March 19, 2008

Joseph Hudak of the Seattle Post-Intelligencer recently conducted an interview with Shannon Tweed, the model-actress (and onetime Playboy Playmate of the Year) who has been "happily unmarried" to Gene Simmons for the past 25 years. A couple of excerpts from the chat follow:

Q: Twenty-five years. What's the secret?

Shannon Tweed: It's about being strong enough to have your own life. That doesn't mean be a nasty bitch who's loud or bossy; it just means be strong in your own sense of self. You can still be strong and be feminine.

Q: Some people believe your relationship with Gene is an open one....

Tweed: "Open" has never been a word I've described my relationship as. And he has never described our relationship as "open," nor has it ever been "open." He does not have sex with anyone else while we are together. It's a sore spot for me that people think that. Anything that you've ever seen... happened before 1983.

Q: What one thing about Gene would surprise us the most?

Tweed: How soft he is. He's very sweet, and kind of stupid. [Laughs] He can't make a sandwich but he can make a lot of money.
