One of the best moments from last night’s American Idol was Bret Michaels performing Every Rose Has Its Thorn with Casey James. And for Bret, it was therapy.
“I didn’t tell my doctors I was going to do this,” Bret told MTV backstage. “But I feel great, I gotta be honest. There’s still a lot of pain I’m still experiencing. But except for a little hitch on my left side from the stroke, I feel amazing.”
Ever the rocker, Bret added, “I can’t believe my family let me out. I may not have told them either; I left a few things out,” he joked. “But I needed this for my soul. Honestly. It was a great experience.”
He’s ready to rock, he says. “I’ve spent the last month and a half in the hospital. I don’t ever want to see a hospital again,” he said. “I just want to go out and have a great time.”
There’s been some doubt about whether Bret Michaels tickets would sell, given the issues he’s been facing for the past month. But between his appearance at Celebrity Apprentice last week, and now last night’s AI performance, it looks like the rocker is ready to hit the road on schedule!
