Triple M spoke to the legend himself, Gene Simmons, who came out firing against new age pop stars like Rihanna and Madonna. He said they had to lift their game and they were liars.
"My only question is… why don't you have enough balls to get up on stage and tell them truthfully 'look, I know you love me and you love my records but only about half of what you're hearing is real. The other half is canned music like a karaoke singer. It's not real. We're lying to you.' What an insult!" exclaimed Gene Simmons.
"If you're going to charge one hundred bucks for a ticket at least have the decency of telling your fans that only half of the stuff they're hearing is live music and the other is canned or pre-recorded.
"Or have the decency to get up on stage like great bands like AC/DC, Metallica, certainly KISS… and what you hear is what you get. Four people sweating their nuts off with nobody in the backstage pressing buttons or digital this and digital that."
Whoa... he doesn’t hold back!
And this from the guy whose OWN DAUGHTER auditioned for the American Idol 'find a karaoke singer' series (or was it X Factor? )... and he even attended her audition with her!!!! (she failed)
Hypocritical moron.
