KISS bassist/vocalist GENE SIMMONS has issued the following update:

"I know I often come off as a self centered, arrogant and delusional person. And your point is????

Wanna see me get my 'come-uppance?' -- tune in to Gene Simmons Family Jewels on A&E, Sunday, June 15th, 10 PM/9 Cenral (Marathon begins at 9/8C) and see the finest comics drill me a new one... along with some surprise guests.

This is real stuff. I had no clue what was going on, who was going to be there, or what they were going to say. Very little of it was edited out (except that stuff A&E just couldn't put on the air).

Some of it was very raunchy, and you may get to see that stuff on the web."
