GENE SIMMONS Becomes 'Emperor' Of Japan - Sep. 18, 2008

According to Spinner.com, KISS bassist/vocalist Gene Simmons makes a cameo in Japan's No. 2 box office hit, "Detroit Metal City", as Jack Ill Dark, a legendary American death metal guitarist who holds the title The Emperor.

Simmons flew to Japan last March for five days of shooting after director Toshio Lee tracked the rocker down with the help of Sony Music Japan. "He was a complete professional," Lee tells Spinner.com with the aid of an English-speaking translator. "He didn't even want to rest. He said, 'I'm here for business.'"
