Rock singer Bret Michaels had a collision with some stage scenery during last night’s Tony Awards show, according to an Associated Press report.
According to the AP, Michaels, who is the star of the reality show “Rock of Love,” went onstage with his hair-metal band Poison during the telecast’s opening production number, which featured performances from the season’s Broadway musicals.
They performed “Nothin’ But a Good Time” with the cast of “Rock of Ages,” and as Michaels exited the stage, a falling set piece smacked him on the head and knocked him to the ground. Though it looked like the scenery broke his nose, it did not, according to a Tony spokesperson, who said the incident happened because Michaels “missed his mark.”
The musical Rock of Ages celebrates 1980s hair music and features songs by Journey and other classic rock bands. It stars Constantine Maroulis as an aspiring rock star.

At least it didn't knock Bret's wig off, that would've been really embarrassing...and hilarious.
