Paul Stanley recently stirred up controversy with his remarks on gender-affirming care for children. As a result, the KISS icon faced backlash from various quarters. However, in a recent episode of his The Nightly Nuge Show, Ted Nugent claimed that Stanley unleashed his ‘beautiful logic’ with those statements.
Stanley’s comments on parents allowing children to question their gender identity led to heated debates and, of course, backlash. Some supported his views, while others were disappointed and criticized him for seemingly endorsing transphobic views. The debate around Stanley’s remarks escalated quickly, leaving the musician to face the consequences of his opinions.
During his Nightly Nuge show, Ted Nugent showed support for Paul Stanley, saying that he appreciated the beautiful logic behind Stanley’s remarks. Nugent also acknowledged Stanley’s work ethic and praised his contribution to the music industry. According to Uncle Ted, Stanley hit the nail on the head this time.
Here is what Ted Nugent said about Paul Stanley:
“Well, Paul Stanley, number one, has a work ethic. And the industry and the world never really celebrate the incredible work ethic that James Brown taught us, the hardest-working man in show business. And KISS, and certainly Paul and Gene Simmons, and all the guys, they have an incredible, fire-breathing, animal, unstoppable, indefatigable work ethic.
So when you work your *ss off to put your heart and soul into being the best that you can be, providing the greatest products you can possibly come up with, the greatest performances every night, when you have that kind of logic-driven life, then logic will surface in other ways. And Paul Stanley just unleashed some beautiful logic.“
He continued, touching upon Gene Simmons’ stance on vaccination:
“Once again, I love Gene, and I actually contacted him after he made that mistaken statement, and I let him know I still love him, but it was a really ridiculous, cruel, dishonest, totally misrepresentative statement that he said. But this time, Paul Stanley hit the nail on the head. So, yes, women should only compete against women, and men should only compete against men. Wow, that’s radical.”
While many on the rock scene disagreed with Stanley, Ted Nugent stepped up to defend his statements. However, it should be noted that in light of the backlash, Stanley recently took a step back from his initial remarks. Meanwhile, Nugent’s Alabama show was canceled due to his views on the transgender community.
