A New Look For Gene Simmons

Believe it or not, we're back from Austin and on track to resume our regularly scheduled coverage of frivolous, rock blog posts. In case you don't believe us: KISS man and reality TV star Gene Simmons recently went under the knife for a little cosmetic facial enhancement, as teased in the series finale to Family Jewels. Naturally, TMZ.com was on hand to document the unhealed after effects, and we thought it'd be a sweet way to kick off the week. And by "sweet," we mean "grossly disturbing." Pic after the jump! (Best viewed on an empty stomach.)


Who loves ya?

I find his receded hairline more disturbing than his eyes.

I think all four original members of Kiss should go on tour with this look instead of the makeup. This is far scarier than the demon makeup.
