Poison’s Bret Michaels Considers Making A Biopic

Bret Michaels has cancelled the remainder of his 2026 performances after doctors determined he needs further recovery following kidney stone surgery and an attempted return to the stage in Georgia.

Freedom 250's star-studded concert series has unravelled weeks before launch, with multiple artists withdrawing from the Trump-linked event and an unlikely figure, veteran booking agent Jeff Epstein, becoming part of the story.

Martina McBride, Bret Michaels, Young MC, The Commodores and Morris Day And The Time have all withdrawn from the Great American State Fair, citing concerns over the event's political associations.

A growing number of artists have pulled out of Freedom 250 Presents: The Great American State Fair, the 16 day event set for Washington D.C.'s National Mall next month, after concerns emerged over the festival's links to Trump and the broader political positioning of the celebration.

Forty years after its release, Poison's debut album Look What The Cat Dragged In remains one of the key commercial and cultural documents of the 1980s hard rock era, a record that transformed a self-financed Los Angeles club band into an international act.

Bret Michaels has teamed up with The Paradise Fund to help 200 families in need in the Coopers Town village on Abaco island, which was one of the places devastated by Hurricane Dorian, last year and Bret, 56, will fly his own plane to the island to personally deliver the gifts and supplies.

Bart Walsh, a one-time member of David Lee Roth’s band, has died at the age of 56.
