Gene Simmons Slams Rihanna/ Questions Talent

Published: Wednesday 21st Mar 2012 by David

With a career spanning almost 40 years, KISS front man Gene Simmons is just as renowned for his Pop culture impact, as he is for his talent.

Never one to mince his words, his outspoken persona has oft landed him in hot water, coming under fire in 2011 for his ‘controversial’ stance on the late Michael Jackson‘s personal and legal issues.

Now, he has weighed in on the supermodel Rihanna. Slamming her for what he calls ‘fake bullsh*t’.

His comments below…

During a press conference in aid of KISS’ upcoming tour with the Motley Crue, Gene confessed:

We’re sick and tired of girls getting up there with dancers and karaoke tapes in back of them. No karaoke singers allowed. No fake bullsh-t. Leave that to Rihanna-Schimianna and everybody else whose name ends with an ‘A.

We’d say he’s being a little unfair.

Because, 8 times out of ten, Fenty does sing live, which is more than can be said for a number of her contemporaries.

But what do you think?

    The more the industry calls Rihanna on her b******* the btter the industry will be. Its important we realize Rihanna has the raw talent and natural ability of a wet spaghetti noodle. Why do we pacify and baby her like shes legit. She has a string of CUTE hit songs. At most the Paula Abdul of our generation. Lets put her back on the banana boat to Barbados where she belongs and make room for REAL Artists, with REAL intent and love for music, and the ability to make a REAL mark on the industry.

  2. KingMikeJ March 21, 2012

    Gene Simmons is irrelevant. He hasn’t had a US #1 album since… oh yeah, EVER! There’s some buzz words celebrities use to get publicity to whatever s*** they are promoting. A hot artist right now such as Rihanna will do the trick. And you’ve just gave Gene Simmons that publicity he craved. This is exactly why irrelevant celebrities who were popular in the 80s will continue to do this.

    “Is Rihanna a bad singer?”- hahaha, TGJ, u’re VERY funny and you know it. Girl can’t even sing.

  4. Real Music Please March 21, 2012

    This b**** cannot sing!! You 90’s kids are f****** losers, all of your music is s***, and no one that was born in the 90’s is not doing s*** but being posers f*** you , and this b****!! Gene is so right ,this w**** has no talent at all!!

    Kiss band have all got memberships to the
    over the hill gang and they can’t find their d**ks
    with a flash light and they can’t get it up no more
    Therefore they need to keep them V***** close
    like their false teeth and toupe’s and leave Rih
    the hell along! And make for sure they snap
    both sides of their depend’s!

  6. Nauqak March 21, 2012

    I understand that he is indeed a legend, but what was his motive or purpose for saying. Rihanna sings live most of the time and recently has even started dancing. She isn’t only just a pretty face, the girl actually has talent. I wonder why so many people spend their time find negative crap to say about her. She never throws shots at anyone.

  7. RIHANNANAVY CAPTAIN March 21, 2012

    @AISHAAGUILERAKEYS @MINDSET212 @REAL MUSIC PLEASE

    Don’t be being bitter b*tches like Gene Simmons. I am surprised that Sam knows who he is…or he use Google or Wikipedia.

    Rihanna sings live, mostly. Get over it. If you hate her so much, keep her name out your mouths. As you all remain anonymous and irrelevant, Rihanna will continue to slay and make #1 hits and sell out arenas worldwide…which is what KISS couldn’t do during their heyday.

    In fact, he’s mad because Lady Gaga is wearing their outfits from back in the day.

  8. RIHANNANAVY CAPTAIN March 21, 2012

    FOR THE RECORD, Beyonce YELLS and not sings…Katy Perry YELLS and not sings.

    WOMP WOMP!!!

    The real culprits are Britney Spears and Kesha.

    • Kellz January 16, 2013

      Beyonce sings beautifully. For example, I wouldn’t call her beautiful vocals on Halo yelling by any means whether she’s live or in the studio. I think Rihana has a huge following and has solidified herself with hit after hit, and the hitlist will keep climbing. However, she hasn’t stepped her live vocals up at all. She does sing live, but she’s not very good. Most of the ime you can’t hear her for the loud backing tracks and band, which is definately intentional. I do agree that Katy Perry does yell. The most famous lipsingers and autotuners today that somehow get a pass from the pulic are Britney Spears and Nikki Minaj, who both ironically end up as judges on singing shows. Go figure…

  9. Lax March 21, 2012

    The more the hounds run Rihanna in the ground the stronger it is
    going to make and keep Rihanna. You know you are the shits when
    you have got THE BUCKET GANG, Trying to critique you. This is just
    what the doctor ordered for Rihanna right about now, i love each and
    every single word of this show stopping party.

    And if Gene and his tongue don’t do better than Rihanna did when she
    was on tour tell me who is going to look just like a bonified old bucker
    gang member then.

    Hey keep saying she can’t sing i don’t give a fukk because if you can make
    the kind of paper she have made by not being a good singer then we all need
    to start singing asap…

  10. Black Madonna March 21, 2012

    WHEN IT COMES TO LIP SYNCHING U WOULD THINK HE WOULDVE MENTIONED BRITNEY SPEARS INSTEAD OF RHIANNA… GUESS SHE WAS THE FIRST BLACK PERSON TO COME TO MIND, SHE DOESNT EVEN LIPSYNC

  11. Lax March 21, 2012

    Simmons look at Rihanna and it make his old worn out
    ass think about those days when he could get it up, and
    since those days are long gone there is nothing to do but
    try and get himself some Buzz since he know that Rihanna
    got the Buzzer in hand and running with it.

    • Carlos September 2, 2016

      It ain’t about whether Rihanna can sing well, but if she can sing, period. Whatever one’s views on this vapid subject, comparing Rihanna’s talent to Gene Simmons’ ability to get it up is not even a comparison. It’s the mouth drippings of an immature fool.

  12. Lax March 21, 2012

    He mentioned Rihanna because he have tried to figure out
    why this black b**** is so dam popular.

  13. Darion March 21, 2012

    RIHANNA is Not A Perfect SInger but her voice has a Good Sound! and she makes hitss!!

  14. xoxo March 21, 2012

    when will you realise SINGING LIVE DOESNT MEAN SINGING WELL. i can sing live an say “it doesnt matter if i sound like s*** because i never lip synced”

  15. Real Music Please March 21, 2012

    You know what navy! You sound so f****** dumb! Live????????? Live like a d**** in her p**** hole! You cannot sit here an say she is a good singer!! When has she ever had an album that went number one? When has she ever had a album that made damn near half the country go buy her s***? This b**** will never be a real singer like Whitney Houston, or Michael Jackson! Sit your poser ass down somewhere with that s***! You are trying to defend a cyborg ass b**** who has to do nasty s*** to say in the spotlight, who used getting her ass beat to sell a few cds! Your generation of singers ain’t s***, and with so many old school talents coming back out, no nobody will be talking about this b**** in no time! Gene is right, it is time for these artist to stop trying to convince themselves of having this major talent, when we allllllll know this motherfucka suck JAY D*** TO GET ON! I’m SORRY B**** BUT i KEEP IT 1000% On you teeny bopper b******!!! Please stop taking up for a b**** that will not call your name during s** you silly ass b****!!! F*** your h** ass navy! Real artist don’t need a “team” of people to boost their name up, real talent speaks for themselves a la Whitney Houston b****!!! Lick p**** h**!!!

      al Music Please: You made your point (or maybe just a lot of potty mouthed noise).
      Now get over your sad self and concentrate on something you should really be concerned with: your mental state. If that is of no interest to you, consider finding a more varied vocabulary with which to verbally p*** on people

  16. Christinasalmosthere March 21, 2012

    @ king mike j

    Rihanna doesn’t have a #1 album in the US yet so what’s your point?

  17. Lax March 21, 2012

    He is getting ready to go on tour and some one higher up
    have asked him if he think he can do as well as Rihanna
    the pop star did and he have though about it and got mad
    about Rih’s tour gross, let him double what Rihanna the
    black b**** did on her tour . If he don’t come in at #7 and
    since he is a legend i want him to double rihanna since
    she is not great in his old twisted mind.

  18. King Tasha March 21, 2012

    Awwww 🙁 and Rhianna started thinking she was a real rockstar after getting her face pummeled..:-( poor her awwwww

  19. Lax March 21, 2012

    She do not have to be the greatest singer to be able to entertain.

  20. David March 21, 2012

    If People think Beyonce yells, then I am afraid of what they call people like Chaka, Patti, Fantasia, Karen Clark………

  21. Lax March 21, 2012

    Fukkkk a #1 Album.

  22. ecchi March 21, 2012

    no she’s not a bad singer. she’s good, not perfect – but who needs that perfection?!? she always sings live, that’s worth more than S******.

    on that rant.. ofc she’s having dancers and doing backtracking but this just mainstream pop not the alternative rock. he may have failed the business a lil.

  23. Lax March 21, 2012

    Singers and entertainer come in all forms
    loud, soft, big and small and who can sing
    the best and dah dah dah is subjective.

  24. Lax March 21, 2012

    This old spider web is old enough to be her great, great grampa
    and his old ass is talking s***.

  25. nibbibu March 21, 2012

    Whatever!!! Little or no talent Ri is still one of the most successful singer current. Everybody knows why she is were she is so whatever.

  26. grammy dammy sammy March 21, 2012

    well this is one thing the 99cents of simple minded preteens cant buy you – RESPECT! I know some will play the race card but rih is a disgrace to the black community. i cant remember any black gimmick before her, save milli vanilli. black people are enriched with flavour and culture, she is just deficient

    Rih will never go down history as a great performer/ dancer or singer. no she will be remembered for her sense of style, being a “badass” and a holder of _ no1 hits that lack memorability factor.

    i really tried watching her performances from loud tour, it’s a hopeless situation. the only thing to make up for the lack of vocal prowess are the costumes and sleazy antics, not even a stage presence to brag about. so many things wrong with today’s world and the music market is definitely one of them, the balance between style vs substance has been so heavily tipped, talent is probably the least impactful factor in making it in music these days

  27. Real Music Please March 21, 2012

    YET LAX, YOU WANT HERE TO GET A NUMBER ONE RIGHT?? ISN’T IT A GOAL FOR MOST ARTIST THAT MAKE AN ALBUM? YOUR LOGIC SUCKS BIG TIME!

  28. grammy dammy sammy March 21, 2012

    @LAX

    save the motivational speech for rihanna, whenever u bump into her lol

  29. Those That Cannot Do, Stan March 21, 2012

    Lol, I think it’s one thing to disagree with him but insulting him and his band (old, over the hill, blah blah) on such dumb stuff is doing the Navy no favors.

    Sorry but the man doesn’t like Rihanna, fine, but when you call. 40+ career, icon status on being ‘old’ you really do feed into the stereotype that the Navy is made up of the immature and ignorant.

    I can’t quite blame the man, every so often you get sick of the cheesy s*** being done but for me it’s really Katy who’s just raping music. Rihanna…eh.

  30. MadameDeuxVisage March 21, 2012

    I have to say, you Titanic members slay me to no end.
    Gene Simmons isnt respected because hes been in the game 40 years, its because of what hes DONE in those 40 years.

    You sit here with your ‘who is he? he’s irrelevant’ comments, but you don’t see that your showcasing your ignorance.
    Rihanna is NOT a good singer, and we all know it. That doesn’t stop me from enjoying her music but it should not come as shock to her fans when they hear someone with actual talent say so.

    You WISH Rihanna could have a career like Gene Simmons, at over 60 years old he’s readying to go on tour- why? Because TALENT never dies. It may falter or weaken but it NEVER dies. THAT is why Tina Turner and Madonna can still embark on world tours and it is why Beyonce will still sell out shows well into her 80s.

  31. Twitter: @dirtyPEACHES March 21, 2012

    He wasn’t lying.

    I’m waiting for her talent to show up because it’s been six albums now and I haven’t seen any.

  32. maira March 21, 2012

    I think he missed his name, would be other singers, haha ​​… I think he’s really listening on the radio and rihanna for being a pop singer widespread, I have seen the rihanna concert here in Brazil in RockinRio and was the best of the night and same night he had another friend of hers who is and was bad!

  33. commanderofthedancefloor March 21, 2012

    woooow please tell me when was the last time rihanna ever lip sang anything?? she just starting dancing last year!! so what the hell is gene simmons talking about?? and rihanna is pop and gene is rock what does his opinion even do??

    oh and riri does get respect why dint you check what donna summer had to say about riri!!! sams girl kelly even said she was inspired by rihanna!! no matter what riri will be in those record books and she will be looked on as one of the greatest artist of our this time!!
    greats of now
    rihanna
    lady gaga

    katy perry

  34. Deveal2014 March 21, 2012

    Singing behind a back track is not singing live it’s karaoke period

  35. whyohwhy2 March 21, 2012

    Yes!!!! Now somebody will start listening, them white folks is talking and they talking the truth!!! Fake as a white banana she is… She got as much talent as a dead ant…. Catchy tunes coming from an artist with no talent I pray is over. Now let everyone be on one acord and send her packing…

  36. xedos March 21, 2012

    he must have red the article in billboard that in the last 10 yrs the chart has be rule by people of color or duets with people of color and a white artist these guys has been irrelivant ever since soundscan started to track music sales. the chart can’t be rig anyone to make them famous. ever since soundscan came it rock died. hip hop,pop and in the 90’s rnb rules the chart.

  37. xedos March 21, 2012

    its funny he has to use rihanna ‘s name to dram attention to his tour . without rihanna. no one would be talking about him or the tour these guys are bitter,because they remember when black artist could not get airplay on MTV and it was all about them. now no one cares . it people care Kiss wouldn’t have to join with motley crue. they should be able to tour on their own

  38. DIONFATALEI March 21, 2012

    Its very sad that he has to slam Rihanna to promote his tour. What makes it even sadder is Rihanna’s not known to lip sing, she rarely does it. I guess she’s the biggest Pop star right now that he could use to generalize them all.

    Sounds like he’s just bitter that Pop is more mainstream & popular than rock once was.

    I doubt this even bothers Rihanna especially since rock legends like Bono, Prince, Slash, Elton John, & Bon Jovi have praised her and gave her the honor of working with them.

  39. RATEDxxx(yall cant wait to see my name to bust that n**.) March 21, 2012

    a number 1 album in the U.S market wont mean s***, at this point of rihannas career.. because people will stilll talk s***, def jam bought the albums or jay z bought the albums..

    she cant win for s***

    many people that has a
    number 1 album in the U.S market, still cant outsell rihanna..

    rihanna is world wide money….

  40. glum March 21, 2012

    @KINGMIKEJ you’re f**king deluded. Gene Simmons is relevant even if he’s not popular. You don’t need a #1 to be good. Rihanna doesn’t sing well live and I just don’t know what she does with her time and money cause since she was 15 doing hero, there’s been quite little change.

  41. mobwife March 21, 2012

    RIHANNA, GIRL I’M BEGINNING TO really LIKE YOU….LOL!

    You got these WHITE FOLKS going crazy! 🙂 Gene Simmons is nothing but an OLD WHITE NON-SINGING NO D*CK HAIVING FAKE with an ALLEGEDLY LONG TONGUE to compensation! @Sam you mentioned a 20 year career but lets be honest shall we? KISS has always been nothing more than yells, screams, guitar riffs, TIGHT SKINNY NYLON GYM WRESTLING CLOTHES and FEMALE MAKE-UP!

    MOTLEY CREW, with SERIAL WIFE BEATERS: Vince Neil (lead singer) and Tommy Lee (drummer) are better examples of a group WITH AN ACTUAL CAREER that spans 20 years! <—Yes, folks, I'll admit to liking a little MC LOL….HA HA…..*wink, wink* 🙂

    ***** psss… Gene what are you thoughts on Madonna, Katy Perry, Gaga, Selina Gomez, and your non-acting W**** of a living GF Shannon Tweet? Talk about YOUR OWN you b******!

  42. RATEDx(yall cant wait to see my name to bust that n**.) March 21, 2012

    he’s just using her name for publicity..rihanna is that bad bish…

    people talking about rihanna is going to be known for her fashion not her talent, umm

    ur fave is going to be know for faking a pregancy and stealing and lying, and swagger jacking peoples s***..

    at the end rihanna is always going to me more likeable…..she keeps it 100…

    people hate the fact that rihanna is winning with an average voice, and a bad bish swag..its ok people i feel ur pain..

  43. MISHKA March 21, 2012

    Awww, poor Riri…she thought she was a rockstar but that fam doesn’t want her either. Getting dissed by Kiss, that sucks.

    _________________________________________________________________

    I sense complete and total bullsh** coming out of your mouth and I’m not even a Rihanna fan!

    She has far more vocal ability than Paula Abdul ever had. Paula was a hell of a choreograhper – no Debbie Allen but she was good – so she was not completely void of talent! Rihanna, when she takes the time, has the ability to carry a tune unlike many of the other POP-TARTS Gene Simmons failed to mention!

  46. Onyx March 21, 2012

    I love KISS but Gene is bitchy with everybody he calls Madonna a karaoke singer too just because she would sing at the Halftime of the Superbowl and KISS not, i’m in a point when i don’t listen to anybody point of view about singing, talent and dancing, i mean if i like an artist that’s all it matters to me because at the end of the day i enjoy the Musician not the critics or haters, just me and the Music, Rihanna is a great entertainer, her voice is good she just have to learn how to control her vocals live, nothing else, the girl is a female version of the King Midas, she turns every song #1, her personality is the best, don’t know why so much hate for her but not even God is loved by everyone so i say i don’t give a f*** what people say, i like her, your hate, your comments, your shades won’t change what i think of her, F*** YOU.

  61. Anne March 21, 2012

    I think he used Rihanna as an example because she has lip synced for some major tv performances of “Found Love” lately and maybe he saw them. As for Madonna, everyone knows she was lip syncing at the Superbowl. But I think it would have been better for him to name someone with more of a history of lip syncing on a regular basis, like Britney Spears or Janet Jackson. Both have done so on a consistent basis for years. Regardless of who is being used as an example, overall though I agree with his point. Lip syching the majority of a song should be rarely done by a vocalist. If they can’t sing the major parts of the song and dance then they should just stand there and sing and leave the dancing to the dancers on stage. If artists insist on dancing but can’t pull it off while singing, they should just let the song play without moving their mouths as they dance, pretending to sing. In other words, just be real, don’t fake it to deceive the audience. Especially not on a regular
    basis or you will lose credibility as a vocalist. For example, since they lip sync so often swear I have no idea as to whether Britney or Janet have any ability to carry a tune long enough to finish a whole song. Rihanna may not sound great when she sings live but at least its real and honest.

    I PERSONALLY THINK HE USED RIHANNA NAME FOR PUBLICITY FOR HIS TOUR. TO GET THE HYPE GOING???

    Feel me i don’t give a fukkk people stop coming after me about a #1
    Rihanna don’t ever have to have a #1 just as long as she can sell and try and beat her wheels off about what her sales are it don’t fukkkk matter.
    And if Jayz can do a album a year for ten years straight and no one says
    jack s*** know that don’t talk to me about #1 albums because it don’t meant jack s*** to me.

    And Rihanna being talentless don’t mean s*** because Rihanna caters to a
    certain group of people who follow her and support her Regardless.
    Rihanna have her followers just like the Rappers and Rockers have theors
    so Gene can say what he want to it don’t matter.

    @richnblack11(just lke bey)

    WHAT U SAID IS TRUE. BUT HE CALLED HER OUT ON SOMETHING THAT SHE DOESN’T DO! RIHANNA DOES NOT USUALLY LIP SYNC. AND OUT OF ALL THE HE COULD HAVE CALLED OUT(BRITNEY SPEARS) HE CHOOSE RIHANNA? A PERSON WHO HARDLY LIPS SYNCS

    I PERSONALLY THINK HE USED RIHANNA NAME FOR PUBLICITY FOR HIS TOUR. TO GET THE HYPE GOING???

    DONT U AGREE????

  79. ITAINTYOBABY March 21, 2012

    Gene need to sit his old ass down, when KISS is nothing more than a gimmick act they are more known for the costumes then their music so grandpa need to go have several seats

  80. freedom March 21, 2012

    Wait, is this the same Gene Simmons of KISS whose band put out an awesome “live” album in 1977 recorded at the Forum that was actually recorded primarily during a soundcheck at the same venue with the fake crowd noise dubbed-in at a recording studio?

  81. LARRY March 21, 2012

    This Man is a joke he said MJ was not the real king of pop suck my d*** !

  82. Aurelian March 21, 2012

    All the criticism against RIhanna, is ALL the EXACT same criticism people had for Madonna in the 80s and 90s. Gimmicks, selling controversy, no talent, microwave hits….all the same.

    There are tons of artist considered legendary today, who were not respected in their heyday….(Beatles, Elvis). TIme and perseverence turns people into legends. There are tons of music acts that have incredible catalogs and tons of talent that nobody remembers.

  83. DTG March 21, 2012

    Hell, Gene just called a spade a spade. LOL@you silly teenagers slighting a rock legend, who is in the rock and roll hall of fame, and whose band will probably earn more money from their next tour than Rihanna will earn for 3 of hers.

    Gene is a highly regarded, highly respected icon/legend. Rihanna is a manufactured pop tart, with no talent, who will probably be gone by the end of the decade. Gene’s place is cemented. He knows talent. He’s seen it. He has it. He shows it. Therefore, he can call that ridiculous record-label created s*** out whenever he pleases.

  84. JOSE March 21, 2012

    Since when was KISS or Gene Simmons in the Hall of Fame? Last I checked, the band has been rejected.

    Just because someone is a legend doesn’t mean that they can go around talking s*** about everyone. He lacks class(see ppl like MJ, who he dissed, who neverh as to do such a thing).Gene is a known bitter and senile old man.

    You people are the same people who said that Rihanna would be gone after Umbrella. LOL. Keep on banking on it. Beyonce fans have been bitter ever since Ri blew up. It’s no ones fault that B is old news. Stop taking it out on Rihanna and worry about when your girl is going to get another hit. And talking about respect? LOL how many times how journalists written about B stealing songwriting credits? Stealing songs? While you’re worried about what Rihanna will be remembered for, worry about how your “living legend” is also a known living thief.

    And lol @the Christina Aguilera fan. Christina is a joke now vocally. Please

  85. Jasun March 21, 2012

    Are some of you actually trying to call out the prolific front man of one of the most beloved, accredited bands of all time in defense of some non-singing s**** Jay-Z found on the streets of nowhere whose claim to fame was getting punched out by Chris Brown?

    Gene could have said much worse about her.

  86. JMO March 21, 2012

    I question Rihanna’s “talent” too.
    Actually, no I don’t.
    There is no question about it: she has none.

  87. ITAINTYOBABY March 21, 2012

    @Freedom so you going to name one album in that was release in 1977, you just made my point.

  88. Bey Fan… March 21, 2012

    LOL how many times how journalists written about B stealing songwriting credits? Stealing songs?
    _______________________________________________________________

    What credible journalist has ever written about Beyonce stealing?????

    And while I dont think Rihanna is that talented, most of time she’s singing live. Gene has to understand that ppl entertain differently. But I will admit , I too am tired of this dance music with the same beat.

  89. Vegas Girl March 22, 2012

    I think Gene Simmons and company are upset rock isn’t as big as it used to be but his statement isn’t completely wrong. I think he just chose a name, not really attacking her only, that was meant for everyone who dances and doesn’t PLAY instruments . Thats what some think a real musician is.

    That being said singing over a backing track that’s loud and contains not only the chorus but the verses, etc. is no different than singing along with a CD. We don’t get to hear what an artists really sounds like without the filler, so they can pad their voice and hide some flaws. It’s really BARELY a step above lip synching…,.barely.

  90. COOKIE – DIVAS – TONI B. RIHANNA March 22, 2012

    TGJ left out the following comments from Gene Simmons:

    “No disrespect to Rihanna, she’s a great singer, but we’re in a slump for some s*** that has some personality and appeal beyond a bunch of pop stuff that’s floating around out there,” he told Billboard.com. “I’m glad he said that actually because I don’t think I can bear watching another f**king award show that is just a little bit better than ‘American Idol.’ It’s f**king pathetic to watch people go out and f**king karaoke with a bunch of lights and video. It’s all completely watered down.”

  91. DEZI March 22, 2012

    Why he single out rihanna? He probaby want to f*ck rihanna old ass pervert. This pervert used to sneak around with diana ross.

  95. kimberly March 22, 2012

    Singing live is singing with hte help of a live band and back up singers. Singing live is not with backtracks. Navy please rihanna sings over a backtrack and take that away. You will not want to hear her. clueless.
    Why is it a shock? It is the truth yall know that she is no talent. yall know that she is the least talented overall? why is this a shock??

  96. kimberly March 22, 2012

    It is time these fake artist be called out not just rihanna,Britney Spears, Chris brown, Ciara, choose what you want to be. a dancer, a singer or an entertainer. stop with that b******* backtrack, stop with the autotune, all the gimmicks. I know alot of people in the industry agrees but they don’t want to be the one to say it.
    The navy wants to question gene? b****** it just shows that you have no history of music. you have no knowledge of talent. This man is going on tour with his old ass. will rihann be able to do this at his age? madonna has showmanship and stagepresence to make up at her age but what will rihanna do? with no stagae presence, no showmanship, no skills, just touching her p****? will her fans at 50 still be on itunes buying her s***? #1 don’t mean great music, don’t mean longevity, don’t mean iconic, don’t mean relevancy. If that is the only thing the navy can use to battle the war…. get ready to sink.
    It is also time to call out madonna because she is the one that introduce these so called pop stars to lip syncing and huge productions to cover their lip syncing and talentless ass.
    Comparing artist before and now it is pure garbage……..Preach gene preach…I am sick of it also.

  97. kimberly March 22, 2012

    TO THE UNEDUCATED NAVY.. KAREOKE IS NOT LIPSYNCING, IT IS SINGING ALONG TO A BACKTRACK. ISN’T RIHANNA KNOWN FOR THAT? PLEASE POST A PERFROMANCE WHERE THERE ISN’T A BACK TRACK AND SHE HAS BACK UP SINGERS. HAVEN’T YOU BEEN TO SING KAREOKE WITH YOUR FRIENDS/ WHAT DO YOU DO… DO YOU LIPSYNC TO THE SCREEN OR YOU SING?

    DAMMY SAMMY I CO SIGN EVERYTHING YOU TYPED, I GUESS TIME WILL TELL. I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO TELL THESE LAME ASS BOOPERS THAT SAME THING. Rihanna will not be known for anything…..not singing, not dancing, not perfroming, not entertaining, not songwriting, not producing. she doesn’t even know the name of the notes she sings in the studio. she doesn’t know anything about singign styles, her producer have to tell her, to pull it live is a problem. Rihanna will be known for changing wigs and trying to follow the route of madonna, which is a fail…..
    To the person praying for her controll her voclas live? keep praying how can you control your vocals when you don’t know about vocals

  98. Stans make me LOL March 22, 2012

    Sorry but Gene is so right, Pop is known for being cheesy but the lack of talent in music now is getting beyond ridiculous.
    At least Britney and Madonna could dance in their prime. Katy Perry can write music and play the Guitar, whilst Rihanna can barley hold a note.
    And the Navy needs to stop the whole “she sings live” s***! Just because you sing live does not equate to good singing, (if you have seen her LIVE you know that I tell no lies). As someone above said although Rihanna has a string of number one hits many still do not respect her as an artist.

    And you Rihanna will be pissed at Gene’s comments #ROCKSTARSHIT!

    Well he said some truths

  111. freedom March 22, 2012

    I am not exactly disagreeing with Gene and the subject of his tirade, but I think having a second rate musician, whose band relies heavily on theatrical displays because their music is not of a good enough quality to stand on its own airing these grievances is kind of ironic. Sure I agree that this kind of American Idol-esque performance is way over done, but to suggest that people want to see old men wearing silly clothes and painting their faces while singing simplistic three chord rock tunes is not really my idea of a decent replacement. Kiss was always more of a show band than a quality musical interpretation. And Motley Crue was just another cookie cutter hair rock band that were a dime a dozen back in the eighties. These guys are barking their profanities like they were class acts in their times. Now they’re just a couple of old swear boxes trying to recapture the fame they once had. But once again, their words do have a vein of truth behind them. The only problem is its just the pot calling the kettle black in this case.

  112. Tosh March 22, 2012

    I’ve come to terms with Rih Rih’s music is thebomb.com…I didn’t say her singing! I think that Rih is eclectic and she doesn’t try to fit in the mold! The folks who can SANG have their box and the folks who can DANCE have their box…and there are the folks whose packaging is so precise either you love’em or you hate’em! Truth be told there are plenty of artist we love that sound terrible outside of a studio, for instance, Janet Jackson! **tell me I’m lying””

    So basically, Gene’s could have been more tactful because as someone said previously he’s very irrelevant! LMBO

  117. Kyle March 22, 2012

    Sometimes I think Rihanna SHOULD lip synch because her live vocals are beyond terrible. I mean, if she did lip synch she could focus a bit more on dancing because clearly she can’t do both at the same time. Gene Simmons is probably one of many legendary rockers who question todays batch of pop stars. And when he stated any other singer whose name ends with an “A,” I think he was throwing another jab at MadonnA because we all know how he felt about her performing at the Super Bowl.

    You know,every artist has their time–KISS had theirs, let Rihanna do her thing. I think entertainers/celebrities are just as bad as regular folk–they don’t think before they speak, and they end up suffering the consequences of what was said.

    And there are some artists out right now that can truly sing and sound the same via album & live; but COME ON…face it…Rihanna CANNOT sing, BUT she’s still going to make her music (a few of which are catchy) and be a raunchy entertainer at times (since the breakup w/ C-Breezy–haven’t you noticed??). So let her be. =]

    Gene Simmons Says “Karaoke Singer” Madonna Inappropriate For Super Bowl
    The legendary tongue of KISS rocker Gene Simmons just took on a more barbed tone, thanks to critical remarks he made about upcoming Super Bowl XLVI halftime performer Madonna, who is now officially set to entertain the football-loving crowd at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, Indiana on February 5. “I don’t think it’s appropriate,” he told TMZ about the NFL’s choice of the Material Girl for the game. Read on!

    TMZ grabbed the “Rock And Roll All Nite” bassist as he was leaving Hollywood establishment Boa and asked him to elaborate on Madge’s upcoming Super Bowl performance.

    “I love all karaoke singers,” he said, with his lengthy tongue firmly planted in cheek. “I like all the girls who get up and sing with tapes.”

    The site’s interviewer asked 62-year-old Simmons if he caught Scotty McCreery’s recent lip-synced flubbing of “The Star-Spangled Banner” during the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. Gene said it was “a bad thing,” then brought things back around to Madonna again.

    “You gotta have some integrity,” he said. “I don’t care what your music is. Have some integrity. Be real. Or, full disclosure before the fact: hold up a sign and say, ‘70 percent of what you hear is fake. It’s a tape. I’m a karaoke singer’.”

    Finally, at the tail end of the interview, Gene said, “By the way, Madonna’s terrific.” Surely that makes it all better, eh, Madge fans?

    @RICK,,,,,,While i want you to know that while i respect your last comment and sais as much, i want you to know that me aganist the FORCE OF THE BEE HIVE IS
    LOSSING BIG TIME AGANIST THE FORCE THAT IS THE HIVE And it is hard for a naval officer to try and defend aganist you all BUT I DO MY BEST.

    And with me being limited with bad english and poor grammar it is a tall hill to climb
    aganist the force of the bee hive because many of the navy could care less because we know deep down what Rihanna is all about and we have heard it all before, i love trying to win a game and remember that i know that i have to pack my lunch to come up aganit the bee hive and perhaps some more of the navy will began to dig in harder later on, hopefully but until then……The beat goes on.

    What GENE Stated is what her haters want to hear and by his using her name
    he still included the girls meaning all of the pop tarts, Rick

  144. Lax March 23, 2012

    The reason GENE went after Rihanna is because she is the “HBIC”

    RIHANNA SHOULD GIVE UP HER CAREER!She disgusts me!
    Without the power of iTunes she can’t even have a hit!
    RIHANNA SUCKS AND HER FANS KNOWS IT BUT THEY DONT WANT TO ADMIT IT :p

    Hahaha true that he’s done this to promote himself, but fact is she isn’t a great singer and anyone who thinks otherwise is deluded.

  149. REAL TALENT WINS! March 23, 2012

    Don’t be mad at Gene for telling the truth. Everyone knows Rihanna is no singer.

  150. Jessica March 24, 2012

    Even tho I can’t stand Gene Simmons, I agree with him!!! Rhianna can’t sing for s***!!! Even live she’s garbage and everyone knows it. The only reason she been around this long is her opening stink ass legs and the whole CB scandal, that is it!!! She’s a studio singer who got her voice enhanced to sound good, just like Britney, two worthless singers out there. Rhianna is done, the white people are tired of her already and now they want real talent, BYE CRAPHANNA NICE KNOWING YOU- FLOP!!

  151. Lax March 24, 2012

    And even with rihanna being all of the things many of you says she
    is still getting paid and raises on her job. While many paddles that s*** around on their backs like beggars trying to sell it on and about her she is still making waves on stunning on yo asses like click work as Usual…

    CRAPANNA Says bye and nice that you dropped by to do your usual kissing of
    her rich ass and she will see you the next week or the next post.

  152. Lax March 24, 2012

    Rihanna says try holding you legs open like she does and find you a Chris
    so you can make you a haul with yo broke hating ass beautiful self. She says that she is so thankful for chris because hes the reason she made it to #7 on the top
    tour list of the best tours of last year. And Chris is why shes the Facebook queen and have over a Billion Youtube views and why she covers that Fitness Book this month. If Chris have got this kind of power to make people in Far away countries
    Storm every place she visited in Europe this pass year considering that many of them don’t know Chris from a hole in the fukkkkin wall they still swarmed where ever she was and showed her Love & Respect buy what her bottom line ended up being, Sound like u mad to me. Goes to show u that many need a Chris in their Fukkkkkin dead Ass a door knob miserable ass lives…Right
    @JESSICA???????????????????????????????????????????

  153. Lax March 24, 2012

    She is like britney and they are two Worthless singers and the white people
    or tire of her yep we already know that and you have been paddling this same old witch doctor medicine for a while now.

  154. Lax March 24, 2012

    MEMMMMMMO: Rihanna and her navy do not buy medicine from
    Snake Doctors because it have not been USDA Inspected Yet!

    Rihanna is popular cause she is illuminati trump and that’s why there’s so much buzz about this b****. I hate her and billions of people in the world hate her too cause she can’t sing for s***. Her songs have no message and she looks like a h** those who support her this 200 000 people in the world are jay z and his illuminati buddies who bought all if her records and tickets. This b**** can’t sell any arena nor records jay z and his publicists are lying to you so that u start buying records tickets and Im telling you EVEN IF I GOT PAID I WOULD NOT WANNA SEE OR HEAR THIS B**** I SWEAR !!!! I know lots of people kids adults and none of them buys any Rihanna’s tickets or records please get the f*** out if music industry u evil non talented ugly troll !!!!

  156. Johnny December 16, 2013

    His point is Rihanna can’t quit being so blind and stubborn if Rihanna is considered a good singer that means anyone can become a singer and Rihanna didn’t become popular because she can sing jay-z signed her to his label because at the time he wanted to f*** Rihanna because she’s hot so that means if you look good you can become a bad singer like Rihanna and still make millions of dollars

    Her songs are shallow and vapid which is probably why they appeal to this generation. She was a creation of someone who liked the way she looked. Does she have any vocal training? Does she play an instrument? What is her life experience? What is her education?
