 Bret Michaels: Injured by set piece at the Tonys
Singer Bret Michaels was hit on the head by a descending set piece at the Tony Awards 2009 on Sunday.
Bret Michaels, the star of the reality show "Rock of Love", took to the stage with his glam-metal band Poison during the ceremonies opening number, featuring performances from the season's Broadway musicals.
They performed "Nothin' But a Good Time" with the cast of "Rock of Ages" and as Michaels exited the stage, a set piece that was being lowered down struck him on the head, knocking him down to the floor instantly.
Christina Stejskal, Tonys spokeswoman, stated that the singer "missed his mark". At first glimpse it looked like Michaels may have broken his nose, but he didn’t. Stejskal did not immediately know the extent of his injury.
"Rock of Ages" celebrates 1980s hair music and features songs by Journey and other bands. It stars Constantine Maroulis as an aspiring rock star.
