Bret Michaels Injured at Tony Awards (video)

Published June 8th, 2009 by Wendy

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.

Rock of Love 2 Winner Wonders What’s Under Bret Michaels Bandana?

Published April 18th, 2008 by Karen

It has been a busy week in the music world, but our favorite story of the week is Bret Michaels FINALLY revealing what is under his bandana. Bald? Wig? Weave? Keep reading…

VH1 wrapped up another season of the surprisingly popular celebrity skank-a-thon, oops, we mean, dating show, Rock of Love.

The show stars Bret Michaels, singer for ‘80s glam rock band Poison, known for songs such as “Every Rose Has Its Thorn” and “Talk Dirty to Me.”

This season’s winner of Bret’s, um, love, was a girl named Ambre. You can see the dramatic final scenes, here.

Unfortunately, Michaels didn’t find true love, he’s already talking about the possibility of Rock of Love 3.

Of course, the biggest mystery of the show isn’t finding out who Bret’s new special lady is, it’s finding out what secret is concealed beneath his ever-present bandana.

Once part of his signature style, in recent years onlookers have started to suspect that the bandana covering his shiny blond hair is there to conceal Bret’s baldness and to hold on his wig.

Turns out, they were right. Sort of.

AP reports that Bret finally revealed what is under his scarf, “My hair is combined of my hair and the finest extensions Europe has to offer. I do the show without it on all the time and they won’t film me. They are like, “Put your bandanna back on. It is your image.” It is my signature thing.”

Now, if someone could just convince him to stop wearing so much lipgloss…

Seriously though, maybe he should take a cue from Jessica Simpson and launch his own line of hair extensions for aging rockstars?

In other news, Bret’s Poison bandmate, drummer Rikki Rockett, was arrested in March on sexual assault charges.
