Gene Simmons calls Prince's death 'pathetic'

Gene Simmons has weighed in on the recent deaths of musicians Prince and David Bowie in a new interview with Newsweek. According to the 66-year-old Kiss frontman, Prince’s death was “pathetic.”

“Bowie was the most tragic of all because it was real sickness,” Simmons said. “All the other ones were a choice.”

I swear, every time this a$$hole says something, I just want to punch his face in...:stopitslime:

If im being honest and assuming the reports are true, I agree.

Geniuses should self preserve better. I think about Whitney's voice and it really makes me cringe the thought of her drugging. Even Mariah who probably doesn't drug has still fukked with her gift by not taking care like she should. Your voice is an instrument that requires training and upkeep.

No judgment cause I'm no genius and don't know the other side of thisr. Plus no one owes us anything but you would think with gifts like that they would see drugs and run in the opposite direction. Just like I dont expect to see top athletes doing dumb shyt jeopardizing their gifts and hard work.

drug addiction shouldnt be seen as a weakness of willpower but as a disease

scientists have found genes that make people more susceptible to addiction (almost 600% more likely to be addicted to a drug if you have the corresponding gene)

they also found neurotransmitters and proteins in these people's brains that causes addiction to be much more likely because of how the brain responds to the drug (some people's brains are susceptible to changing so that they are devoted to the drug while others can easily quit because their brain is more resilient)

this issue is too complicated and Gene calling Prince "pathetic" is disgraceful and ignorant

Yes addiction is an disease. It runs in my family that's why I adamantly avoid drugs and gambling. If I had a genius gift best believe no one around me would be allowed to dabble with either .

I agree Gene was inappropriate and incompasaionate voicing this publicly at his level.
