About a month ago, Bret Michaels underwent surgery due to kidney stones. However, due to his diabetes and a stent being put up his penis, doctors insisted he take a month off.
On Friday, he was ready to take the stage again. Or so he thought.
His people wrote in a statement: “Following Bret Michaels’ comeback show at The Bowl at Sugar Hill, doctors and paramedics determined immediately after the show that he still needs additional rest and recovery from his recent surgeries. Bret will be taking the next several months off to heal and get back to 100%.
“Bret’s doctors, Dr. Abby Borhan and Dr. Patel stated, ‘We will be pulling Bret off the road for the time being. He wanted to attempt this show, but we feel there is a much-needed period of rest and slow recovery ahead, especially considering the heat and humidity during the summer months and the effect it can have on his blood sugar levels.'”
Today, Michaels wrote his own statement: “There are not enough words to ever say how grateful I am for all the well wishes of family, friends, fans, bands, crews…and Larry, as well as the incredible get well shoutouts from my musician friends on stage at The Mountain Music Festival. They truly gave me the strength I needed to remain unbroken. As you know, I always choose victory over being a victim to my disease. I truly felt I would be able to do all these shows in spite of the recent health domino effect that has occurred. I was truly upset that I could not play The Mountain Music Festival as I love the fans, the outdoors and Tennessee. And I vow to return in ’27 or ’28 and make it the best show ever, plus I wanted to see the rumored BearSquatch & rock with so many great bands, fans and crew…Right now, I’ve worked diligently with my doctors and physical therapists (who have been beyond incredible) on Saturday, today and will again on Monday, adjusting all the new medication and factoring in what I did not the other day, which was the heat factor in Awesome Atlanta, and, as it was my first show back and I wanted to give every ounce of energy I had in me, with my excitement, I also forgot to factor in the day of, coast to coast flight, which had an effect on my blood sugar & blood pressure levels with the new medicine adjustments, including my insulin. You’ve gotta know that my energy and my soul really want to play music. Hopefully, I will get this figured out much sooner than later. If I could, I would be back out there tomorrow. Sincere love to all…stand strong, rock on and remain Unbroken!”
Hopefully, 2027 will be his year. And maybe he will humble himself enough to reunite with Poison.
Simple Plan’s most famous song is I’m Just a Kid. But what happens when one of them celebrates a birthday?
If they are Jeff Stinco, they realize at 48 they are no longer 18. That and they are NOT still alone, and the world is NOT having more fun than me tonight.
Therefore, continue being a kid because age is only a number!
A few months ago, e.l.f Cosmetics launched a limited-edition dill-flavored Glow Reviver Melting Lip Balm, and people went dill-arious for it. So, they are bringing it back, along with two new flavors.
The Real Dill: A return of the original sharp, classic, and unapologetically pickle-forward with a sheer green shade
e.l.f. von Dill: Nodding to German pickle fans, a light and fresh balance of sweet, salty and tangy paired with a glossy pearl finish
Spicy Lil’ Dill: New plumping formula innovation that packs a hot and spicy kick with a deep red sheen
“When our community speaks, we listen. With our first launch of our pickle flavored Glow Reviver Melting Lip Balm, we popped the lid on a new wave of fandom,” said Laurie Lam, Chief Brand Officer of e.l.f. Cosmetics. “We moved at e.l.f. speed to bring our community more of what they love. Within weeks of our first drop, our teams were testing new flavors and ramped up our innovation pipeline to meet this cultural craving. And as we learned in real-time the depth of passion out there for pickles, it was an opportunity to stretch further to produce something like with the plumping formula in Spicy Lil’ Dill. We are here answering the call for more fans to get in on the fun.”
You can buy the dill-icious lip balms online now, and they will be available in Ulta stores starting on Monday.
Since I love pickles, I am going to try them all. Which one are you going to try?
Do you remember the boy from the Baby Shark music video? Well, he has a name, and it is Park Geon Roung. The 17-year-old is back with new music, and he released his first single since that massive hit.
Park said this about his new song Wave, which he co-wrote: “For me, Baby Shark Dance was like the first wave that began 10 years ago. I grew up riding that wave, and now I’m standing at a new starting point as Baby Shark Boy. I put that sense of moving forward into “WAVE,” and I hope people can see who I am today in a new way.”
Along with the music video, we are getting WAVE: Becoming Baby Shark Boy, a documentary about him this winter.
The Pinkfong Company, who released Baby Shark and Wave, said that there will be more collaborations in the future. Hopefully, one of them is with the Nirvana baby.
Steve Martin shared a photo of Martin Short dressed up like an English woman, and he wrote, “Show business leads us down many strange paths.”
All I could wonder was if that strange path was going to send the two amigos down the aisle. So could we someday meet Mr. & Mrs. Steve and Martin Martin? Only time will tell.
