“Celebrity Apprentice” is down another man. Bret Michaels was rushed to a hospital on Thursday night after suffering a subarachnoid hemorrhage, which is basically means the area between his brain and the tissues that cover it is bleeding. There is no specific cause of the bleed and doctors are currently trying to locate the source of the hemorrhage. According to several doctors, his recent appendectomy nor his diabetes are to blame. It can happen to anyone at any time.

An update on Michaels’ current status was posted on the former Poison rocker’s Facebook:

“Once again we can’t thank everyone enough for all the well wishes and prayers being sent Bret’s way! As of now Bret remains in ICU under 24 hour surveillance. Further testing this week will help locate the source of the bleeding.

Look for an official medical report from doctors this week at BretMichaels.com.
Please remember Bret is, and always has been, a fighter and survivor and is under the best medical care possible. Thanks for your support!”

Get well soon!

Ah yes, the Tony Awards. It’s like the Olympics for thespians. I love a good musical as I often bust out in song in random life situations. (Leaving drunken messages including my rendition of “I’m Like a Bird” on my friends’ answering machines counts.)

Neil Patrick Harris, the newest unicorn to out and proud posse, hosted the evening and quickly won the crowd over. However, the highlight was Bret Michaels (I am guessing to pimp “Rock of Love: Bang Bus Edition.”). As he was leaving the stage from his lip synched performance to make way for the fiercest of the fierce, Stockard Channing, he ran headfirst into a gigantic “Broadway” sign.

A spokeswoman for the Tony’s say that Bret missed his mark. You can see the rest of Poison scrambling out of the way but Bret hanging around as the sign descended. It was first rumored that he broke his nose, but People got a hold of his rep who stated the he did not break his nose.
