Gene Simmons Collapses In LA

Gene Simmons collapsed at LAX and was briefly hospitalised on Sunday.

The KISS bassist reportedly collapsed whilst waiting for a flight at the LA airport on Sunday. He was rushed to hospital with a cut to his forehead which he suffered as he fell.

After doctors examined Simmons he was later discharged after being diagnosed with dehydration.

Simmons later posted an update on the official Kiss website:

"So, Miss Tweed and I were at LAX... we got some Decaf Coffee and some eggs... and there I am munching and taking a few sips... and then, I feel this rush of heat from my feet up to my head... and then apparently I blacked out.

"I woke up in a nearby hospital. I was told I passed out due to dehydration, lack of sleep, and just pure exhaustion.

"I spent a night at the hospital and found, to my surprise, half of my left eyebrow literally fell off... I must have hit the ground hard. I don't remember. So, there I am being stitched up, eating hospital food, and itchy to get back to work.

"I'm back home. All is well.

"I've been getting lots of emails and calls asking if everything is fine. Yes. Thank you. All is well.”
