Bret Michaels to Follow in Flavor Flav’s Footsteps


LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) – Bret Michaels, the frontman of ’80s pop-metal band Poison, will be looking for love in a new VH1 series from the producers of the network’s hit “Flavor of Love.”

The cable network is set to debut a 10-episode reality series titled “Rock of Love With Bret Michaels” in July. The show will feature Michaels looking for a woman who can keep up with his rock ‘n’ roll lifestyle and not become jealous of his one true passion — performing — which is said to be the reason for and destruction of most of his relationships.

The women, who will live with Michaels in his “Los Angeles rock palace,” will be put through various challenges in a test of their devotion to him as well as their understanding of everything rock ‘n’ roll. Those who win these challenges will join Michaels on “wild and exclusive excursions,” while “those who can’t hang like true backstage VIPs will be escorted out in bona fide rock star fashion,” VH1 said.

VH1 has found success with other series featuring celebrities looking for a soulmate, including “Flavor of Love” and “I Love New York,” both of which have set ratings records for the network.

Poison, which came out of the Los Angeles club scene in the mid-1980s, scored hits with such tunes as “Every Rose Has Its Thorn” and “Unskinny Bop,” but its popularity faded as grunge took over in the early 1990s.

    I have followed Poison since when they first came out in the 80′s. Not only was Talk Dirty to Me the first album that I owned but I still have it! Bret still looks great for his age…which isn’t old at all. And he has a great body and seems to be a loving and caring person. I have watched some of the show and feel shows like this are a waste of tv space but they are interesting none the least. I was surprised to see that Bret would have a show like this but sometimes that’s what celebrities do to stay in the spotlight. They find and audience and obviously he has one. I would have hoped he’d done a show to promote young aspiring artists but I guess the Flavor of Love bug bit him too. Non the less I like him he has great talent and a big heart and maybe this will open the door for him to do betting things with his talent.

    Brett us so hot it’s ridiculous. He seems very down to Earth, but still with that sexy bad boy spice. I saw a recent picture of him without the “head gear” and no he’s not bald. It’s just his trade mark. Somestimes you might notice pics with the bandana just wrapped around the front and there is a ton of hair on top. Anyway, Dior… were u trying to be funny? Or Serious?

  17. By gracie

    i just wanna say i watch the show all the time && Lacy should be kicked off she suxx.. And i love jesss she so sexiii. i would take her in a heart beat. And i also really like wild thing and sam but do understand why she had to go.

    BUT PICKK JESS OR I WILL =]

    Go to his website and click on BIO. Large pic of him with no hat or bandana. Hulk Hogan? I have SEEN him with his bandana off! He only has hair (long hair) above his ears and around. He has always been like that and he doesn’t have a problem with it. He starightens the hair too! I’m sure before Bret’s show is over, we are going to see him with out a hat.

  19. By dior

    Some of yall are crazy! If that is his hair he has thinn a** hair! On top of it that is fake hair! Its called 100% human hair weave and glue!! Same as Hulk Hogan.. I think he keeps that stupid thing on because he don’t want any girls putting hands in that mess.. Sometimes its all nappy in the back like my girls barbie dolls hair! Why would u let ur hair do that!! Or damn why let it get like that! That makeup and bitch eyeliner has to go! He is gonna screw the girl he picks then get another rock of love show just like flava and have more dumb ass stripper hoes to make fools out of to help him make $ they don’t get shet!! Lisa is another new york.. He will pick her I’m sure.

    You people who think bret is not covering up his baldeness with hair sewn into the bandana are seiously dillusional!
    Give me a braek! I went to the web site shelia posted, I saw over 40 pics, not 1 without a bandana & cowboy hat or baseball hat.
    If he has decent hair he would show it, take it from someone who knows.
    I’m not bashing him I am just saying he is hiding under that Bandana/wig/hat system he has.
    Going bald sucks X 10 for a Ex~Rockstar.
