Bret Michaels Clears Up Motley Feud

03/11/2011
. (Gibson) For a guy who's been through the ringer thanks to a plethora of health problems over the past year, including surgeries on both his brain and heart, Poison frontman and reality show golden boy Bret Michaels refuses to slow down. Just days after being released from the hospital, he took home the big prize on Donald Trumps' Celebrity Apprentice, and now he's gearing up for one of his busiest summers ever thanks to a new solo album, solo performances, gigs with Poison and a Poison/ M�tley Cr�e co-headlining tour

Michaels went on to discuss some of the well-publicized and none-too-kind words made by some in the M�tley Cr�e camp, who Poison will be co-headlining a tour with this summer:

"I know M�tley Cr�e made some derogatory statements early on when I mentioned us doing this [tour] together. But I've spoken with Nikki [Sixx] several times on the phone now, and really, the truth of the matter is that rock fans spoke up and said what a great tour this will be, to see those bands with that kind of energy and stage shows. So I want to go out this summer, regardless of what's been said and what's been done... Really, it means nothing to me. What matters is I go out and have fun with my band on our 25th anniversary. That's all." more on this story
