NEW YORK — Bret Michaels says he is not 100 percent healthy yet but is looking forward to going back on the road and performing.
Despite life-threatening illness, the 47-year-old rocker appeared on the live season finale of “The Celebrity Apprentice” on Sunday night and was rewarded by winning the competition when Donald Trump said, “You’re hired,” earning $250,000 for the American Diabetes Association.
The Poison frontman’s appearance had been in question after he suffered a brain hemorrhage in April and was hospitalized recently after what doctors called a warning stroke. He faces surgery for a hole in his heart.
Monday on NBC’s “Today” show, Michaels said he is not back to “100 percent yet” but that he is going “to do a show and see how it goes. . . . I’m ready to rock, and we’ll see what happens.”
