Gene Simmons: 'There's No Doubt In My Mind Michael Jackson Was A Paedophile' [Music World News]

KISS rocker Gene Simmons says there is “no question” in his mind that Michael Jackson molested children.

The 60-year-old also claims he knows a former Michael Jackson musician who quit from touring with the King of Pop because “of seeing boys coming out of the hotel rooms.”

The Demon – real name Chaim Witz – made the allegations in the new edition of Classic Rock Magazine where he said he had pleasant memories of Jackson in his younger years, but this soon changed when the child abuse allegations arose.

“As time moved on, and no matter what my fond memories and fond images of Michael were, with one allegation of paedophilia after another and another and another… Oh dear,” he explained.

“I knew some of the musicians he toured with, and specifically one who quit because of seeing boys coming out of the hotel rooms. And then you factor in that his travel agent was put on the stand and in court said that she was authorised to fly to Brazil and bring boys back to America for him…

“Well, you know, where there’s smoke there’s fire. There’s no question in my mind he molested those kids. Not a doubt.

“Michael’s on tape going, ‘Give the kids Jesus juice.’ Which is wine. I mean, it’s just endless.

“There’s never been a single female of any age that I’ve ever known about who has ever made a claim that she has had a physical relationship with Michael, ever.

“In fact, while he was alive, I never heard about mature men ever making that claim either – and believe me, you can’t keep it a secret. If you’re a celebrity, somebody somewhere will say, ‘Oh yeah, I shagged him.’

“The only sexual references ever made about Michael Jackson that were made by anyone, anywhere around the world, have always been made by kids, and specifically males usually 10 to 14 years of age; never females, that age or older, and never grown men.

“Oh, I don’t think this is going away any time soon.”
