During her time there, she appeared in the play “Into the Woods”, and made her first television appearance in “No Contest II”, which also featured her mother. After matriculating, she attended Pitzer College and graduated with a degree in Religious Studies. However, since she was small, she aspired to have a singing career similar to that of her father.
Sophie started to become known during the series “Gene Simmons: Family Jewels”, which started airing in 2006; the show would run a total of seven seasons, finishing up in 2012, and she would become very popular in the show thanks to her charisma and personality. While the show had a high focus on her parents Gene and Shannon, the show inevitably made their children popular too. However, the show has been known to display some events that never really, happened including Gene purchasing the Carlton Football Club. Regardless, the show is reported as the second highest rated series of A&E, behind “Dog the Bounty Hunter”. The show also released a DVD and has shown significant parts of the family’s lives such as Gene and Shannon’s marriage, although in fact the two had never been married, but did have two children. The show ended when Gene decided that he needed to focus on other business commitments, as well as a KISS tour.
The next people heard of Sophie was when she announced that she was auditioning for the second season of “The X Factor”, though there was no report on what happened to her audition. Aside from her singing aspirations, Simmons is also known for various modelling work. In 2016, she posed for the lingerie company Adore Me.
