Gene Simmons enjoyed a rare red carpet appearance with his entire family including wife Shannon Tweed.
The 76-year-old KISS frontman – who recently blasted a fan as a ‘jealous loser’ – had the support of his family at the premiere of Deep Water in Los Angeles on Monday night.
The Rock and Roll All Nite hitmaker was joined by his KISS bandmate Paul Stanley as they both serve as producer for the horror disaster film.
Simmons looked every bit the gentleman as he was arm-in-arm with longtime love Tweed who used a cane while walking down the red carpet.
He donned a black jacket over a shark T-shirt, skinny blue jeans, and python leather boots.

Simmons, 76, looked every bit the gentleman as he was arm-in-arm with longtime love Tweed, 69, who used a cane while walking down the red carpet.
Tweed stunned in a long black coat over white graphic shark T-shirt and black leather heeled booties.
The way their relationship works may be a mystery to many as Simmons famously insisted that he has slept with 4,800 groupies.
In 2016, Gene told The Sun he had photographic evidence of sexual partners but was made to burn them all by his now wife, Playboy model Shannon Tweed, before they married in 2011 after 28 years of dating.
He said: ‘I didn’t do drugs in the crazy times but I did do sex. Did I sleep with 4,800 women? So they tell me.’
‘I did have the Polaroids to prove it, oh yes. But most of them were burned,’ he added, calling it a ‘ritual’ he and his wife shared.
Simmons and his wife initially began their relationship in 1983 and remained unmarried for nearly 30 years.
The happy couple started a family with the arrival of Nick in 1989, and they welcomed Sophie in 1992.
The musician and his loved ones starred in the reality television series Gene Simmons Family Jewels, which premiered on A&E in 2006.
The program ran for a total of seven seasons and eventually concluded in 2012.

In 2016, Simmons (pictured in LA back in March 2020) said: ‘I didn’t do drugs in the crazy times but I did do sex. Did I sleep with 4,800 women? So they tell me. I did have the Polaroids to prove it, oh yes. Most of them were burned’
The musician and his wife tied the knot in 2011 during a wedding ceremony that took place at the Beverly Hills Hotel.
Deep Water is centered around a ‘group of international passengers en route from Los Angeles to Shanghai are forced to make an emergency landing in shark-infested waters. Now they must work together in hopes to overcome the frenzy of sharks drawn to the wreckage.’
It stars Ben Kingsley, Aaron Echart, Priya Jain, Rosie Zhao, Kelly Gale, Lucy Barrett, Chrissy Jin, Angus Sampson, and Molly Bell Wright.
Deep Water – directed by Renny Harlin – is set for release on Friday.
