SIMMONS’ JEWELRY BOX: Gene Simmons’ wife and daughter are making their own foray into self-expression, albeit via a very different route than that of the Kiss front man. In collaboration with HSN, Sophie and Shannon Tweed-Simmons will launch an accessories collection called Sophie & Shannon’s Jewel Box. Comprised of costume jewelry, belts, dresses and handbags, the line is meant to span generations, incorporating pieces that both a mother and daughter can wear.

I've always considered Gene Simmons to be a true rock icon. While other bands may come and go, KISS, as a band and as a business empire, just gets bigger. I think it's all mainly due to Gene's acute business acumen and general wisdom.

I must admit, when I first heard he was allowing cameras into his life to film a reality show, I expected a lot of strippers and crazy rock star parties. What I got was a truly touching look at a caring family man who deeply loves his wife and kids and experiences a lot of the same issues as the rest of us.

A lot of other TV viewers agree, and the show has been a hit, gaining more fans each season. The seventh season of A&E's hit TV series "Gene Simmons Family Jewels" premiered on May 28, following the couple's wedding, which was the big finale to season six. I like the show and think it really does show the other side to Gene and his family.

I had to the chance to interview Shannon Tweed about what doing the show has meant to her, Gene and the family:

Sophie and Nick perform in Vancouver on the weekend, here is a preview of the performance

Rocker Gene Simmons and wife Shannon Tweed have a new addition to their “Family Jewels”. During an interview with the couple airing on Thursday, Shannon introduces ET Canada to her new dog, “Moly, Moly, Moly… Cujo?” The couple hasn’t settled on a name yet and it’s not the only thing the newlyweds aren’t seeing eye to eye on in the new season of their reality TV show, Gene Simmons Family Jewels.
