7. Gene Simmons Gets in Trouble
In 2011, Gene Simmons and his girlfriend of over 26 years, Shannon Tweed, made the talk show rounds to promote their reality TV show Gene’s Family Jewels. During an interview with Joy Behar, things got incredibly tense when Behar brought up the long time rumor that Simmons slept with 5,000 women by asking the incredibly insensitive (and not sarcastic at all) question, “How’s your back, Gene?” After his answer, Tweed rolls her eyes dramatically, hits Simmons in the back, snatches off her mic and storms off the set. The two gave a similarly painful interview earlier that day proving that good reality TV does not always make for good celebrity interviews.
