About Bret Michaels:

Rocker and pop culture icon, Bret Michaels has been making hits—whether solo, or with rock group, Poison—for 25 years. Beyond his legendary work with Poison, as well as his acclaimed solo career, Michaels has gone on to enjoy a stunningly successful run in the realm of reality TV, including a first place finish on 2010's "The Celebrity Apprentice," and VH1 hits such as "Rock of Love" and "Life as I Know It." Michaels recently partnered with Dean Guitars, to design his first ever signature Bret Michaels series. Philanthropy remains an important facet of Michaels' career as well: a lifelong diabetic, Michaels partnered with the American Diabetes Association in 2010/2011, acting as a spokesperson and sponsor. He gives generously to the cause, donating both his time, money, and support to a number of diabetes charities. Bret also has a line of diabetic lifestyle products coming out this fall to coincide with National Diabetes Awareness Month. Bret continues to evolve as an artist and as an entrepreneur, taking on new projects in music, business, and beyond. And with dates for Bret's "Get Your Rock On" solo tour continuing straight through New Years Eve, Bret Michaels will be rocking right through 2011.
