Gene Article in Mail

The following article was in The Daily Mail just over a week ago, you may remember that Paul & Gene done some NOH8 campains a couple of years ago too:-

"They are often seen attending Hollywood events as a family unit on the red-carpet. And now Gene Simmons, his wife Shannon Tweed and daughter Sophie are coming together all in the name of protest.

The famous family, as well as Shannon's younger sister Tracy, were seen adorned with 'NOH8' stamps on their bodies as they stepped out on Hollywood Boulevard on Wednesday night. The clan had earlier attended the NOH8 Campaign 4th Anniversary Celebration at the Avalon Nightclub along with LeAnn Rimes and her husband Eddie Cibrian.

The NOH8 Campaign is a charitable organization whose mission is to promote marriage, gender and human equality. In 2008, Proposition 8 passed in California, amending the state Constitution to ban same-sex marriage. The NOH8 campaign is also a photographic silent protest created in response to Proposition 8. Photos feature subjects with duct tape over their mouths, symbolising their voices being silenced by Prop 8. Participants are usually seen with one cheek painted with 'NOH8' in protest. Gene and his family members posed with face paint applied on their cheeks, hands and chests. 

The clan, who previously starred together in the reality show Gene Simmons Family Jewels, all wore black during the outing, opting for jackets and sweaters in the same hue. Daughter Sophie, 19, went for a more daring look by wearing a sheer top with her black bra seen peeking through. Recently Gene's daughter Sophie stepped out of the spotlight of her famous father and into her very own when she auditioned for The X Factor USA."
