Bret Michaels
News

In an interview with random website amNY.com, Bret Michaels admitted that he and Rock of Love Bus winner Taya Parker are not in love, while adding that he may end up in front of reality TV cameras again.

"It should be called Rock of Dating," Michaels said backstage at the Tony Awards, saying that he and Parker see each other in a "fun" way, but that he bangs plenty of other women, as well.

Should Bret have gone with Mindy, pictured here, over Taya on the Rock of Love Bus finale? Would it have mattered?

As for another season of sex with drunken, insecure women reality TV?

"If I was forced to do it again, I might," Michaels said.

Meanwhile, Bret walked into a piece of scenery at the Tony Awards. It was hilarious.

Bret Michaels has claimed this season of Rock of Love Bus marked the end of his reality TV career.

As the rocker's swan song, he chose Penthouse Pet Taya Parker as his supposedly true love.

In an interview with VH1, he talks about that decision, along with past suitors and future reality show viewing...

Why did you choose Taya?
When you’re around her one-on-one, she lets you know that she cares about you and she makes you feel like a man. She’ll tell you, “You look great.” Being flattered whether you’re being played or whether it’s sincere, matters. She at least let me know that she gave a s***. And you go, “OK, that feels pretty good.” You want someone to care about you.

You chose the girl who didn’t sleep with you.
It was weird. We had a good oral relationship. There was a give and take on both parts. Me and Mindy had a great... relationship. And some of the others. But with Taya, I now have 4th base or a home run to look forward to.

Did you pay attention to Rock of Love Charm School?
Oh yeah. And I plan on watching Daisy of Love, too. I just found out that Megan’s going to have a show. She’s a character, man. She should have a show. But Daisy, she was my heroin. I was sexually addicted to her. I think she’s gonna have a pretty good time on her show.

On the season finale of Rock of Love Bus, Bret Michaels will choose between Mindy and Taya.

Who does the rocker select? We don't know yet.

But in a recent interview with TV Guide, Michaels said he has fallen in love with the winner. Kinda. Sort of.

"I definitely felt love at the end of all three seasons. Or, I felt lust and a lot of like. It was the same feeling I had at the end of the first two seasons. I go into these relationships with the same intention, but whether or not they last is a whole different ball game," the reality TV star said.

Who do you wanna win Rock of Love Bus: Mindy Hall or Taya Parker?

Attention, Rock of Love Bus girls.

Whichever one of you wins over Bret Michaels this season, you're gonna wanna turn away any time an episode of Friends is on.

"There is no doubt I find [Jennifer Aniston] to be very hot, smart, funny down-to-earth and a great actress," Michaels recently told Us Weekly. "She is creative and seems to be on top of her business as well."

Because he's Bret Michaels, the singer added: "Behind closed tour bus doors, she could rock your world."

A quartet of reality TV stars made their presence felt in Tampa this weekend.

Indeed, two of Bret Michaels' former Rock of Love suitors posed together on the red carpet, prior to a Playboy-sponsored Super Bowl party; while Michaels himself sidled up next to a former Baywatch star and future Celebrity Apprentice contestant.

First up, Ambre Lake and Heather Chadwell:

Finding true love on TV is tough. - Bret Michaels

Despite this declaration, the former Poison frontman is at it for the third time, starring on Rock of Love Bus with Bret Michaels and sorting through drunken mess after drunken mess in order to see if his soulmate is on tour with him.

"If you want to know the true measure of a person, spend a week on the road with them," Michaels told celebrity gossip tabloid OK!

Bret Michaels has a lot of drinking to do before determining who to go home with on Rock of Love Bus.

So, did the singer end up with a life partner following the taping of this series? Maybe.

"I find what I think is my best chance for it," he said. "She's someone who can handle being out on the road, but she can still have fun. I think I did good."

Will Bret Michaels find true love on Rock of Love Bus, which premieres this Sunday night?

The rocker didn't reveal that information to The New York Daily News. But he did say that this series is likely his last foray into the world of reality TV dating.

"I can never say never, but I'm pretty sure that this kind of show is it for me," Michaels said.

Does that mean we've seen the last of the rocker on the small screen? Of course not.

"I'd like to do a hybrid of [a series] where you come into my real life a little more, like a mixture of Rock of Love and Gene Simmons Family Jewels," he said. "I think the ups and downs and sideways of my life would be really interesting for people to see."

Sorry, Bret. But we don't agree.

Bret Michaels and Jes Rickleff (the winner of the inaugural season of Rock of Love) never had a chance.

And things may have looked good for a while between Bret and Ambre Lake - the winner of season two - but, come on. That relationship soon fizzled out.

Despite these heartbreaks, however, Michaels is dusting himself off and putting his penis back out there again: the third season of Rock of Love, deemed Rock of Love Bus because it will actually follow Bret and his skanks around on a tour buss, premieres January 4.

Bret Michaels is 0-2 in the reality TV relationship department.

On season one of Rock of Love, he offered his heart and soul - or at least his penis - to Jes Rickleff. But she rejected him cold, actually saying she already had a boyfriend.

“When Jes came back [for a season one reunion show] she said, ‘I have a boyfriend and I only did the show because I thought it would be fun,'” Michaels said in an interview this week with the Grand Junction Free Press.

“He didn't get jealous when we were on TV sucking face,” Michaels added.

Bret Michaels says: Bring on more babes!

Undettered, Michaels filmed Rock of Love 2 and selected Ambre Lake to be his soulmate. But that didn't work out, either.

Now, the rocker is ready for the show's third installment, Rock of Love Bus, which he says is a better representation of his life.

“I've never had a normal dating life. I was 18 when I left Pennsylvania and came to California in a van. I've pretty much been a nomad or a gypsy for six to seven months of my life a year,” Michaels said.

Bret Michaels may be auditioning desperate women for the next installment of Rock of Love, but he told People Magazine that he still loves season two winner Ambre Lake.

“I still love her,” Michaels said. “I’m not really over her yet. We still hang. She was just out with me a couple days ago and we were having a great time. She’s really got it. I think she’s great.”

Bret Michaels still hearts Ambre Lake, at least the best way Bret Michaels can.

Considering his career love record, what does the rocker attribute all his failed relationships?

“The reason for destruction of all my relationships is that I’m passionate about being on the road and making music,” he said. “I have great relationships. But the women I date don’t realize that I spend between 6 and 8 months of my life on the road — touring or traveling or seeing family with my daughters.”

To help him find a woman who can deal with his lifestyle, the upcoming season of Rock of Love will be shot exclusively on the road.

“Wait till they travel on a bus and are living in and out of a suitcase under the bay of the hotel,” he says. “You know they’re going to show up here with 14 suitcases when you can fit about one. I have two pairs of jeans … You learn to live like that. It’s a whole different life.”
