on the racks: bret michaels bares it all [almost] for billboard

Tweet It must be the kind of day where old-school musicians feel like being naked on my blog... Not that it's a regular occurrence or anything....

Not only is Seal gettin' jiggy with Heidi in his new music video, but now Bret Michaels is showing you everything but his goods on the cover of Billboard.


Their Maximum Exposure issue compiles a list of celebs who are accelerating their career in various ways. Bret Michaels is #30 thanks to cable TV- Rock of Love, winning The Apprentice, and now his new VH1 show- Life As I Know It.

"TV has absolutely made my sales go up, made my tour guarantees go up. TV has been a great addition to my career. But the key thing is knowing what to walk away from. I advise anyone-especially musicians-to be very careful not to just grab anything they throw your way."
-Bret, on how TV has affected his career.

Apparently he was also really close to being an Idol judge. He said he was in the "final four" and even in talks with being a judge on X-Factor. For some reason, he settled for his own show on VH1 that will probably make everyone roll their eyes, but still watch.

My question is: Is the cover too much for you?! Are you covering your eyes or wanting to take that oh-so-convenient circle away?!



I'm pretty shocked by his hott bod, not gonna lie. Keep on rockin', Bret!

watch: bret michaels headbanging

I need to start trusting sites that tell me "this video is funny and everyone likes it and you should watch it." Sometimes I read titles and say "that's probably stupid."

This Bret Michaels video is a prime example. So he gets beheaded... It's about time, right?! Well, it's actually a lot funnier than it sounds.



WHAT!! Did that REALLY happen on live TV at the Tony's?!? Yes, yes it did. He got taken out by his stage decor [or whatever you want to call it] as if he didn't see this ginormous thing coming down at him from the ceiling.

"Oh what's that? That looks fun! I wonder what will happen if I run under it?! Oh.. Ouch....."

Dummy.

being put on hold

Hope no one was too excited or looking forward to "Rock of Love Bus with Bret Michaels"...

Turns out one of his crew members fell asleep at the wheel of a production van and crashed... and killed two 19-year-olds. (It happened Friday..)

Bret says "As a father of two, I cannot even imagine what the families must be going through at this time. I will make every attempt to reach out to them to let them know that my heart and prayers are with them during their time of grief” in a statement he released.. yet, sources say he has not yet contacted the families at all.. Yikes.

Cmon Bret.. don't you know when you apologize publicly you're supposed to mean it? And you're supposed to do something to "correct" the issue?

here we go again

Looks like all of you "Rock of Love" fans have not only one thing to look forward to.. but TWO!

Yeaa, the oh-so-clever show is coming up with two spin-offs. One with the rocker we have grown to love so much, Bret, and the other to the girl we have come to "love," Daisy de la Hoya.

To Bret's "credit," it will be called "Rock of Love Bus"... aka, the show will all be on his tour bus.. so that he can really find someone to ride or die with....

..............

Daisy's show will find her the man of her dreams.

...........................

Rightttt... I'm thinkin it's going to find all of us another New York.. what do you think?

I also think it might be time for you to step out of the box, VH1.. but I'm no TV expert..

love,
