Kiss Dropped From Michael Jackson Tribute Show


LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - The rock band Kiss was removed from the line-up for a Michael Jackson tribute concert in Britain, after it was revealed frontman Gene Simmons has called Jackson a child molester, organizers said on Tuesday.

The decision to scratch Kiss from the line-up came after Jackson's fans this week expressed anger at Simmons' comments.

I have never understood all this unending tribute to Michael Jackson myself. Yes, a great musical talent, but
his was unbalanced, and not a hero to be idolized. Although, he was not convicted of child molestation, by his own words, he clearly did not understand what appropriate boundaries are necessary with innocent children.

Right on 933. MJ was a pervert. He is being praised when he should not be and it's sending a message that what he did is okay. Good music or not I say good riddance. He was worthless after he molested little kids (we all know he did it).

Just another reason for me to like Gene Simmons!! He tells it like it is.
