MUSIC legend Gene Simmons had a surprise on his trip 'home' to Israel.

The Kiss frontman met a brother and three sisters whom he didn't know about. The Kiss star, born Chaim Witz, emigrated to America with his Holocaust survivor mother Flora at the age of eight after his parents divorced - and he had never returned until now. The 61-year-old and his partner, former Playboy model Shannon Tweed, are in Israel as part of his reality TV show Gene Simmons' Family Jewels.

On Monday, Simmons tweeted: "In Israel, land of my birth. Very inspiring. Bethlehem. Nazareth. Galilee, Jerusalem. Home to the religions - Judaism, Christianity & Islam.

"Never knew I had a brother and three sisters. Kobi, Sharon, Eugenia and Drora. We met. We reconnected. We loved each other.
"My father left when I was 7. Was married 6x (six times). No one knows where he was born, or how many children he had. He's always been a mystery to me."

From PaulStanley.com:
Paul Stanley, founder and front man of the legendary rock band KISS and highly-successful fine artist, and his wife Erin, a Los Angeles attorney, announced today that they are expecting a baby girl in August.

This will be the third child for the legendary Star Child and his wife who married in 2005 and live in Beverly Hills, California with their daughter Sarah Brianna (2), son Colin Michael (4) and son Evan Shane (16) from Stanley’s previous marriage.

“There is nothing greater in life than family, and my accomplishments as a father rank at the top of my successes,” Stanley said. “Erin and I are blessed with our expectation of the addition of another princess to our family and a new member of The KISS Army. I may be 59, but the only rocking chair this rocker is getting ready for is the one for my new baby.”
