I should remind you, ladies. You cannot change us, whether you force us to put a wedding ring on your finger or not.

Good luck, Gene… I give you a year, tops.  And, in the immortal words of Kanye West: “If you ain’t no ponk, holla we want prenup!  We want prenup”!

Per TMZ:

Gene Simmons is finally revealing what Shannon Tweed told him when he asked for her hand in marriage … and SHOCKER … she didn’t say no.

Now, the couple is planning the wedding — and they’ve already sent out invitations — complete with a sarcastic wedding announcement from their kids.

The announcement says, “After 28 years of loose strings, our parents have finally decided to tie the knot.”

“Our mother will share our horrendous hyphenate of a last name and our father’s life … well, it doesn’t change that much.”
