Legendary KISS frontman Gene Simmons is the latest music mogul to face sexual misconduct allegations. In a lawsuit, Simmons allegedly harassed a Los Angeles radio host during an interview at the rocker’s Rock & Brews Restaurant.
Nirvana, the influential Seattle grunge band founded by the late Kurt Cobain, and the flamboyant 1970s rockers from KISS were among six new inductees to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, the organization said on Tuesday.
KISS will not be joining others being inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland. The ceremony airs on HBO Saturday, May 18.
Among those joining those already enshrined Rush, Heart, Public Enemy, Donna Summer, Quincy Jones and Randy Newman, among others, will be seen joining those already in the museum.
But KISS, the self-proclaimed "hottest band in the world," won't be inducted yet again.
Get out your makeup and dust off those platform boots, KISS is hitting the road again with one of the summer's biggest concert tours, teaming up with fellow rock band Motley Crue and kicking off "The Tour" on July 20 in Virginia.
