hopefully when you say "most" that is excluding Trace - since he plays to sold out shows all over the country he isnt a has been. As much as I will be loving watching Trace play I do think that Simmons will win - I, too, liked his show and his kids - the one thing that struck me was not only did he not use the drugs and such but you could just see the love in his eyes for Shannon and the kids - Trace does run a very successful business on his own and he has been promoting the heck out of his book (an awesome read BTW, for anyone that doesnt have it yet) and newest release from GAC but I still think that Gene will probably take this

I have a feeling that the focus of many of the challenges will be team work. All of the promotion for the show talks about checking your ego at the door. You've got an interesting combination of "soloists" in the mix of celebrities, with a few athletes smattered in that have a better grasp on team work. If being a team player and working well with others is a huge emphasis from Trump, I could see that being Gene's downfall. As strong of a business man as he's proven himself to be, he's never come across to me as much of a follower. Can the queen bee morph into the worker bee?

I wondered about that also - but Gene does have a good crew of people that he interacts with - I guess we will see in a few hours how this starts to play out - I still loved the look on Traces face when Omarosa asked him if he waxed or something equally as stupid and when he said an emphatic NO she said oh so you aren't metro sexual ? And he looked at her and said uh I don't even know what that is but I can tell you I am most definitely not a metro sexual - lol

Gene did great - as much as I am rooting for Trace since I am a huge fan of his I do think that Gene will win this thing.

I haven't seen Gene Simmons show so I only know him as the frontman for KISS. Having grown up in the 70's and 80's I still think of him as a rocker and not a father and businessman. So I thought he was the ultimate in "cool" when he made that phone call and sold a $5000 hot dog in the middle of Stephen and Pierces argument on the best way to sell hot dogs.
