Gene Simmons: 'Lady Gaga Is A Female Version Of Kiss'

May 4, 2010
Gene Simmons: 'Lady Gaga Is A Female Version Of Kiss'Kiss star Gene Simmons has praised Lady Gaga, describing her as a female version of them.

Simmons said he admired the US singer’s music and that her success was a result her close relationship with her fans.

“She’s not Lady Gaga, she’s really Lady Kiss,” Simmons told the Daily Star.

“I love the vibe, the big mouth and the big visuals. She’s the most exciting thing to happen since us. She’s a female version of us.”

Speaking about Lady Gaga’s fans, who the singer calls her “little monsters”, Simmons added: “One of the first things we learned was to treat the audience as the guv’nor.

“When they buy a ticket they become your boss. We just work here. She realises that her fans deserve the best you got because they pay your wages.”

Lady Gaga is due to return to the UK later this month as part of her Monster Ball world tour.

Tickets are on sale now.
