Newlywed Simmons offers up saucy marriage tips

Newlywed Kiss rocker Gene Simmons has found the secret to a lasting Hollywood marriage - the wife has to be a "w**re in the bedroom" and the husband has to stay healthy.

The once-womanising star exchanged vows with his longtime partner, former model Shannon Tweed, in October (11) and he insists he has quickly become an expert on marriage etiquette.

He tells HollyScoop.com, "Romance is interesting, but somebody much more prolific than I am put it better - 'she should be a Madonna in the kitchen and a w**re in the bedroom.' That’s pretty accurate. And guys have to be in good health."

Tweed agrees, admitting she knows how to keep her man happy: "Keep having sex in different ways. Try to think of something new."

And married life hasn't curbed their sexual appetites.

She continues, "Thank god the children are grown up. As soon as they hear noise form upstairs they leave the house. That’s good."
