One of the last true rock stars, Gene Simmons' reputation precedes him.

Ahead of Gene's upcoming solo tour of Australia, Andrew burrows into his relationships with women and his attitudes towards them. This, after all, is a man who has bragged about sleeping with almost 5000 women, and has been obnoxious to women interviewers, including one respected Australian rock critic. In a stunning confession, the 68 year-old rocker looks back at the person he was, explaining his behaviour ("I was an arrogant, sexist pig") and setting a challenge to other men to not act as he did.

This is Gene as you've never seen him before.
