The 2011 Billboard Music Awards brought out Bret Michaels to Las Vegas on Sunday, May 22nd.

Michaels wore his signature bandana and paired it with a cowboy hat as he took the stage to introduce Ke$ha, who performed that night.

The 48 year-old Poison frontman and star of reality TV shows Rock of Love, Celebrity Apprentice and Life As I Know It was last seen proposing to girlfriend and mother of his two children Kristi Gibson on the finale of Life in 2010.

No word on a date for the wedding, but Michaels has said it would not be on camera.

Bret Michaels has filed a lawsuit against CBS and the Tony Awards after he suffered injuries as a performer in 2009.

The musician was flattened as a heavy stage set was dropping rapidly while he was attempting to exit after finishing his musical number for the telecast.

At the time Michaels suffered an obvious broken nose and cut lip however the suit contends the sub arachnoid brain hemorrhage that landed him in the hopsital six months later was actually a brain injury resulting from the damage.

“One of the most common causes of this type of hemorrhage is head trauma exactly like the one Michaels suffered at the hands of the Tony Awards,” TMZ quotes from the suit.

The Poison frontman says that he asked producers which way he needed to go upon exiting the stage after singing “Nothin’ But A Good Time” but the directions he was given at the time were vague and are what led to the hazard.

“Quite the opposite, Michaels specifically asked for instructions regarding how to exit after his performance and was just told to walk off the rear of the stage — in what was ultimately the danger zone,” the legal papers say.

The 48 year-old singer says to add insult to injury, CBS and the Tony producers claim he missed his mark and offered no apology.

Michaels is asking for an unspecified amount in damages.

After having surgery to repair a hole in his heart a little more than a week ago, Bret Michaels called in his doctor for a health scare.

The 47 year-old Poison singer suffered a severe drop in blood pressure and wasn’t feeling well, prompting the physician visit but luckily, Michaels is doing just fine.

Bret suffered no setbacks and is fine,” said Dr. Mansour Assar, an interventional cardiologist who was involved with the procedure carried out on January 24. “It’s always good for patients to be evaluated when they’re not feeling well,” he said.

The possible reason for the plunge in blood pressure is attributed complications from diabetes leading to dehydration and exhaustion.

Michaels was discharged from a Phoenix area hospital and is recuperating at home with fiance Kristi Gibson and their two daughters.

Billy Ray Cyrus is getting an ugly divorce and he really doesn’t want to talk about it.  So all y’all better back off.

When Daddy Cyrus went on the “Woody & The Wake-Up Call” show on WCOL in Nashville and Woody Johnson asked about divorcing Tish, Billy lost his cool and stormed out.

Watch out y’all.  Billy will continue to make public appearances and expect y’all not to ask any questions that aren’t related to his blossoming career.

Bret Michaels and Tish Cyrus‘ alleged affair is supposed to be the real reason that Billy Ray Cyrus filed for divorce.  Well, as expected, Bret is callin BS on the allegations.

He told Fox & Friends,

“The answer is no.  I’ve been friends with her family forever.  It started out with me and Miley simply working on a song together. Her mom, Tish, likes ‘Every Rose Has Its Thorn,’ the first concert Miley ever saw was Poison, and so they wanted to remake it for the new record. … When I was in the studio, Miley came in and sang on my song … and that was it.”

That sounds innocent enough, right.  Well, then how did this rumor start?  And why hasn’t Tish made a real statement about it?  I really hope it’s not true.  I love Bret Michaels and you’d have to be a pretty bad guy to sleep with your friend’s wife.  Do you think Bret is telling the truth?
