Hey, you know what might kill you? COVID-19. You what definitely won't kill you and will also prevent you from getting COVID-19? Wearing a mask. Which is why Kiss vocalist and bassist Gene Simmons is here to tell you to just wear a damn mask.

In an interview with K-97, Simmons said he's shocked by some of the anti-maskers out there. He also made the very obvious, but somehow missed, point that wearing a mask is about everyone. Not just you.

"Be kind to each other," said Simmons. "C'mon! Seeing these YouTube and TMZ videos of everybody going insane. I know the nerves are up, 'cause we're all scared — what's gonna happen and all that stuff. It's okay. The sun is gonna come out one of these days. It's all gonna get better. And just be kind to each other. That doesn't take much effort. And wear your goddamn masks. It ain't about you.

"If you sneeze, you put your hand over your mouth. Why wouldn't you cover your face for something that might be life-threatening. 'Well, you can't tell me what to do.' Actually, you get told what to do all the time. When there's a red light, you're told to stop the car. 'Well, I don't wanna stop the car.' It's not about you. 'Cause if you go through a red light, you're gonna kill somebody, possibly. So when there's a red light, you're told to stop.

"Wear a goddamn mask. It's not about you; it's about the rest of us."

Simmons joins folks like Lamb of God guitarist Mark Morton, Slipknot vocalist Corey Taylor, and Twisted Sister vocalist Dee Snider in urging everyone to just stop being stupid.
