Kettle, Meet Gene Simmons

Gene Simmons has been asked quite a bit about performing with American Idol finalist, Adam Lambert, as of late. And while mostly everything has been generally praise-worthy towards Lambert, Gene goes and blurts out this on Good Day Philadelphia:

"Mostly he should shut up about his sexual preferences.
We, America, the rest of the world, really don't care.
I mean, if the story becomes 'I prefer farm animals to,'
you know, who cares?"

Wow, that's an interesting statement coming from the guy never seems to shut up about his own sexual preferences:

Now if Gene wanted to say that he thinks that Adam Lambert's decision to speak openly about being gay is a mistake career-wise, he should just say so. But for him to say that Lambert should 'shut up' about his sexual preferences after Gene himself has spent decades talking about his own sexual preferences and the number of women he has bedded down is hypocritical to say the least.

I can honestly say that I care as little about who Lambert prefers sexually as I do who Gene Simmons prefers sexually. Yet, since the mid-80s, I've had to endure watching/listening/reading Gene blather on about his sexual preferences hundreds and hundreds of times over. I wish Gene would learn to take his own advice.
