Michaels sues Tony bosses
BRET Michaels sued CBS Broadcasting and the organizers of the Tony Awards on Friday over a 2009 mishap that resulted in him being hit in the head by a set piece, claiming the accident contributed to a brain hemorrhage that nearly killed him.
The Poison frontman's lawsuit claims he continues to deal with effects from the injury and brain bleeding that left him hospitalized last year. "Through his sheer will to live, to see his children grow up, Michaels was able to survive this trauma," his lawsuit states.
Michaels and Poison performed at the Tony Awards in June 2009 and the singer suffered a busted lip and broken nose when he was whacked by a piece of scenery.
He claims show organizers never explained that the set would be changing after the band performed, "Nothin' But a Good Time."
The musician also claims the show could have prevented the incident from airing, but chose not to.
Within days of the accident, Michaels expressed dismay that Tony organizers hadn't shown more concern about the incident.
