- inactive, on 07/03/2009, -39/+682I think all the homely teenage girls that Gene Simmons has forced his grotesque carcass on over the years need to speak up.
- ZachsMind, on 07/04/2009, -28/+327Why would people lie about being molested by Michael Jackson now, when there's no way of profiting from it?
- primatage, on 07/04/2009, -28/+319Gene Simmons has molested millions of ears, where are their voices!?
- jmdwinter, on 07/04/2009, -10/+280Jackson's accusers, especially the Chandler family in '93, were extortionists. Jackson paid them $23m to shut up so he could get on with his (declining) career. Wikipedia says they're all living in multi million dollar mansions under assumed names. If anything Jackson should be derided for being stupid enough to get into these situations. I don't think Jackson 'molested' anybody but his behaviour was bizarre enough to allow the vultures to start circling.
My 2 cents. - macmcraeart, on 07/04/2009, -19/+242gene is just pissed nobody will give a ***** when he dies.
- ConcernedCanuck, on 07/03/2009, -14/+149when i first read the headline, I thought he wanted Marijuana abusers to speak up.
- MrFisty, on 07/04/2009, -3/+134That's what rap is for.
- smacksaw, on 07/04/2009, -5/+121I dugg you, but I'll tell you what I told my mom when she announced to me that he was dead and good riddance and all that jazz.
On a scale of 1 to 10, 1 being "impossible" and 10 being "undeniable", the chance he had an unhealthy interest in little boys was a 6. The chance that these people were scammers and gold diggers who sued him? That's a 10. And the likelihood the parents knew Jackson was a 6 out of 10 and sent their kids into danger? That's also a 10.
It's like sending your kids skydiving and then complaining one of them got hurt or died. I guess skydiving is guilty for being dangerous, but you're more guilty sending your kids skydiving. Sending your kids to live with another grown adult with no supervision? Moronic. - Chicagoland, on 07/04/2009, -22/+123I highly doubt he forced any girl to have sex with him.
- shrewduser, on 07/04/2009, -7/+106all i know is that there was a trial and he was acquitted. i have to base my judgment on that, not the court of public opinion, it's kind of strange that he calls for us to hear from the children and "not the celebrities" there's more than a bit of irony there.
everyone has their right to justice, but MJ is no longer around for his right of reply, calling for this all of a sudden after he's dead seems a bit of a douchebag move. - DouglasQ, on 07/04/2009, -19/+101KISS suck.
A great band shouldn't dedicate most of their lyrics to telling people what a great band they are. - scarwars, on 07/04/2009, -3/+79his tongue did that
- Inaktivist, on 07/04/2009, -12/+86Gene Simmons wants attention. Period.
- nwhysee, on 07/04/2009, -7/+72I'm going to need a more random celebrity to comment on the MJ situation. What does Gilbert Gottfried think about the Jackson family not getting permission for the burial at the Neverland Ranch?
- bakamas, on 07/04/2009, -2/+67This is the third time I read a story this week that starts with "Gene Simmons wants....."
I wish he'd stop telling us what he wants/thinks. - EddiePotato, on 07/04/2009, -8/+65Simmons is high in the running for the King of Douchebaggery title.
- ggrubins, on 07/04/2009, -5/+60he wasn't into it. i don't think michael was into sex with anyone or anything quite frankly. it's difficult for people to believe that a man could love kids and not be a perv ,but jackson's logic was perfect when he challenged every reporter who asked him about sleeping in bed(which he claims he never did) or in the room with children. men do this everyday when it's their own kids. what kid hasn't slept in the bed with mom or dad or mom and dad, sister, cousin, brother, grandma etc...
so you can believe that mj molested only 2 kids who both just happened to have had shady parents? do perv priests usually molest just 2 kids? hell no. and what kind of pedo doesn't have child porn? jordan chandler( the 93 accuser ) was full of *****, his parents were scammers, and in 2005 his dad struck him in the head with a dumb-bell. and the 2005 accuser's mother tried to scam jay leno and george lopez before moving on to mj. that's it. those are the 2 kids who accused mj of molestation.
gene simmons is a mildly talented ***** head with his own issues. quite honestly any man that would admit to thousands of sex partners sounds like a sex addict.
this whole thing is mostly sexist. men have been made into freak monsters with respect to kids. a man can't walk down the street with his kids without someone thinking he's a perv. if you make mj an unmarried female celeb who loved kids and who let them sleep in her room no one would believe she were a perv. - seanrtilley, on 07/04/2009, -13/+57Honestly, at least someone has the nerve to publicly state how obnoxious all these celebrity tributes have been. Yes, he was a great musician. Yes, there were allegations and rumors that followed him for a good portion of his career. But, a little over three weeks ago, most of these very celebrities would be cracking Michael Jackson jokes. A bunch of hypocrites, in my opinion. I'm sick of looking left and right and hearing "Michael Jackson! Michael Jackson! Michael Jackson!". Yes, he's dead, but death is entirely a natural thing, in fact the only thing we all can bank on happening. People cling to a fear of death and love of celebrities in the strangest of ways, almost immortalising them.
This is the tragedy, to me. - bubbameister33, on 07/04/2009, -5/+44Oh Snap!!!
- Stinkylicious, on 07/04/2009, -4/+39Glad to hear this celebrity doesn't want to hear what celebrities have to say.
- Tejbir32, on 07/04/2009, -28/+61Who is Gene Simmons?
- kelmaster1, on 07/04/2009, -1/+32Mr. Simmons is quite the dumbass:
'"Jackson paid millions of dollars to settle out of court with a 13-year-old who accused him of molestation in 1993, Simmons noted."
"I want to know what that boy has to say," Simmons said.'
Gene, ask your lawyer what settlement means... - inactive, on 07/04/2009, -1/+31A very popular actress from the 50's.
- mr5150, on 07/04/2009, -9/+36Gene Simmons.....what a ***** narcissistic douche.
***** off Simmons......shut your pie hole and go figure out how you sell another "Kiss' Final Tour" again...classless scumbag *****!
i bet there are many young stupid/star obsessed 13 y/o (in the dark aged verging into the Jurassic period) who could tell a many morally questionable stories about you and your band's sexual antics. - kanojo1969, on 07/04/2009, -2/+29Any of the tabloids would pay huge money for an insider's account of either case. or brand new allegations from a new child, but in that case they would need very high quality evidence.
It's actually better now that he's dead, because the tabloids don't have to worry about libel as much. If I had any inside dirt on him, I'd be making phone calls while the body is still warm.
The complete lack of any really shocking revelations since his death tells me both cases were pure fiction. - johnsmith555, on 07/04/2009, -3/+30Gene's a attention whore
- smacksaw, on 07/04/2009, -2/+28And Gene Simmons wants file-sharers put in jail.
It really makes you wonder what sort of rebel rockers these guys really are/were...buncha conformists if you ask me. - Intention, on 07/04/2009, -0/+24Gene Simmons daughter has huge boobs.
- Zanarkand, on 07/04/2009, -3/+27I think Gene is still a bit pissed he isn't in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and yet Michael made it so easy.
- waspbr, on 07/04/2009, -8/+32he is your real father
- wentwj, on 07/04/2009, -2/+25If your argument requires you to create an arbitrary scale, and then arbitrarily declare values to it, then it's not a good argument.
The simple fact is that Michael Jackson was either doing something very wrong with little boys, or was so moronically stupid, that his actions make it nearly impossible to tell if he's just that stupid or was doing wrong things with little boys.
You do NOT sleep in the same bed with small children who are not yours. You do not give them questionable drinks.
Is it conceivable that MJ was just crazy and didn't do anything totally wrong? Sure it is. I also highly doubt ANYONE would question his guilt/innnocence if rather than MJ he was Crazy Larry from down the street - djpray2k, on 07/04/2009, -8/+31Gene's inner thoughts: "Hey Gene, you know nobody gives a crap about you these days? Well why don't you bring up those to charges for child mollestation that never came to anything? He's not been dead a week - it will show how wild and cool you are shock people so much they might remember who you are"
Gene "Yeah, then they might by my records, I could do with another ivory back stratcher"
Gene's inner thoughts" Fcuk off Gene, people aren't gonna buy your records again, Jackson was ten times the artist you were, and probably then some". - kelmaster1, on 07/04/2009, -3/+25well said. It's interesting how our society attaches the pedophile tag because he's weird and like to hang with little boys. Could it be possible that he liked children because it reminds him of a youthful innocence that he never had? Nope, he's a child molester, like everyone who likes children.
- smacksaw, on 07/04/2009, -9/+31@ ShingoEX
Wu-Tang Clan, NWA, A Tribe Called Quest, De La Soul, Outkast, D12 and countless others disagree. And the fact you know none of them makes me sad for you. - Rocketbird, on 07/04/2009, -1/+23Well..They're ears.
Let's start a campaign to give ears a mouth!! - Mockylock, on 07/04/2009, -16/+36I grew up with MJ's music and he was a pop idol. BUT, I've gotta say... nobody else would have gotten away with the ***** that's been covered up over him. The guy was obviously ***** up. Look at what he did to himself.. ...holding a baby over a balcony... all the other *****. If he was anyone else, he'd have been eaten alive. Probably a rubbery texture, but you get the point.
- DouglasQ, on 07/04/2009, -2/+22I've been telling people that for years.
- steviaextract, on 07/04/2009, -12/+32he was found innocent by a jury of his peers, what more do you want?
- EddiePotato, on 07/04/2009, -3/+23Do You Love Me from the Destroyer album. 100% narcissism.
I'm convinced Kiss lyrics were the main inspiration for most Spinal Tap lyrics. - zebraz, on 07/04/2009, -4/+24Gene Simmons needs to put his tongue back in his mouth.
- ophello, on 07/04/2009, -2/+21I think they will probably do so when there is something in it for them. At the moment, there's nothing.
- spookyttws, on 07/04/2009, -0/+19Sorry, those families were paid millions never to speak of such things. Even though he's dead his lawyers would be all over them if they started to talk.
I have no idea if he actually did do any of the things the kid's families claimed none of us do except the people actually involved. I was too young to care about the first case, but the family of the boy in the second case seemed out for the money. He very well have been molested, but that family had a history of trying to scam a bunch of different companies, so his acquittal didn't surprise me. - cygnus2112, on 07/04/2009, -22/+40I tend to agree with smacksaw's interpretation, except I think Michael was more of an 8. He was a pedo, but I don't know if he ever acted upon it. He never slept with his wife, never had sex with her, and would sleep with little kids. As much as the parents might have been gold diggers, why did former employees come forward to testify to reveal what they witnessed? They had no real motivation to make money from testifying and it could have damaged their reputation.
I'm just sayin'... there was wine, porn mags, locked doors, surveillance system and one ***** up entertainer who had a ***** up childhood. Where there's smoke, there's usually fire. But unsure if MJ ever had the chance or the balls to stick a dick in a little boy like he obviously wanted to.
(Sorry MJ fans.) - Senturion, on 07/04/2009, -2/+19And I'm sure Simmons never had sex with a minor either. What a hypocrite.
I am 99% convinced that MJ had an unhealthy infatuation with children, however I am also maybe 70% convinced that his infatuation never extended to sexual exploitation. Inappropriate, definitely, but not sexual.
I am also 100% convinced that those families who took money to shut up were full of ***** because no one who truly cared about their child would allow a molester to go free for a big payday. - darthbutcher, on 07/04/2009, -2/+19I'm about 99% sure that if a child was molested, the family would not just settle for money. I may only be 17, but if my child was ever molested, I would make sure the person guilty is isolated from society for the rest of the Earth's existence.
- SherwinS, on 07/04/2009, -0/+17Lets get Ja Rule on the phone. What are Ja's thoughts on this tragedy. WHERE IS JA?
- ManImAwesome, on 07/04/2009, -2/+18I'm with you Gene, all these other people are trying to make money/gain publicity from MJ's death, no reason you can't jump in on this one
- rssej, on 07/04/2009, -1/+17When someone commits so much to charity and also influenced so many people, its natural for the masses to want to immortalize. Honestly, MJ had a profound effect on me on growing up and had a hand in my professional career of me as an artist. Yeah the coverage is a bit much, but his influence is extraordinary and its finally to nice to see people revisit everything hes accomplished and contributed.
- EddiePotato, on 07/04/2009, -1/+17Search your feelings, you know this to be true. And if you still don't believe it, just consider that the odds are about 75%.
- kolop1, on 07/04/2009, -11/+26So, was OJ. Money buys things.
