Watch: GENE SIMMONS presents the weather on Los Angeles tv station

17-03-2025

On Thursday (March 13), KISS bassist/vocalist Gene Simmons took over Los Angeles meteorologist Adam Krueger‘s weekend report on Fox 11.

Wearing a denim shirt, sunglasses and a black cap, Gene opened the segment opened by roasting Krueger (“You look much better in real life than you do on TV”),while Kreuger slipped in relevant KISS puns and lyrics into the forecast, including “There’s been a lot of rain lately, and the rain you drive us wild, we’ll drive you crazy talking about this rain,” borrowing a line from the KISS classic “Rock And Roll All Nite”Simmons seemingly approved, telling Kreuger, “Hey, I wrote that. I like that.’

After the broadcast, Krueger shared some behind-the-scenes photos with the rock legend on Instagram and wrote, “Do weather with @genesimmons” along with a checkmark emoji.

This is not the first time Gene has tried his hand at meteorology. Last September, he joined KTLA 5 Morning News to read the seven-day forecast.

Simmons and his solo band, aptly named GENE SIMMONS BAND, will kick off a U.S. tour on April 3 in Anaheim.

Simmons is offering his fans a chance to be his roadie for a day during his upcoming tour with the GENE SIMMONS BAND.
