Credit: Reuters/Lucas Jackson Related News Q&A: Bret Michaels' "Life" to unfold on cable TV Fri, Sep 24 2010 Related Topics Fashion » Entertainment » Television » People » Media » By Louis Hau Fri Sep 24, 2010 6:08pm EDT NEW YORK (Billboard) - Every year, Billboard polls music industry experts to compile its Maximum Exposure list: the top 100 ways that bands, singers and rappers can get their music seen and heard. Bret Michaels, who has a new cable show 'Life As I Know It,' landed at No. 30 on the list. Michaels is a prime example of how starring in a cable TV reality show is one of the best ways for a musician to attain maximum exposure. In a Q&A with Billboard, Michaels talked about just how TV has been good to him. Q: How would you say your career was going when you decided to do your reality dating show, "Rock of Love" on U.S. cable network VH1? A: I thought it was going great, actually. Poison has continued to tour throughout our 25 years, give or take a few years off for drug rehab and fistfights. I was starting work on my first real solo album, and I'd finished being a judge on season three of "Nashville Star," which ended up as their highest-rated season. Q: Were you actively looking to get into TV at that point? A: No doubt. I don't bury my head in the sand about anything. I'm not the new kid on the block anymore. Writers always use the phrase "aging rocker," and I'm like, "What other option do I have?" You're either aging or you're dead. So I'm embracing it. TV gives you such an opportunity to be exposed. That could be really great for your career or absolutely detrimental, depending on when the real you comes out. Q: So which part of "Rock of Love" was the real you, and which part wasn't? A: All of it was the real me. I like to party, I like to have a good time, but everyone who watched knew that I was a down-to-earth guy who tried hard to be respectful of other people. The show never crossed a line. Q: Were you worried that "Rock of Love" could harm your music career? A: I thought that I have three generations of Poison fans, and this would open me up to a whole new generation. My fears about the show weren't about music. I turned it down the first time they approached me, because their first idea was very retro. They wanted the 1986 Bret Michaels. My fans enjoyed the teased hair, the spandex. It was great, it was the time I lived in. Who knew that spandex tucked into cowboy boots would ever go out of style? But for some strange reason, it did. I'd progressed forward and I didn't want to go back. I stood up for myself and said, "You need to let me be who I am right now in my life." Q: How has reality TV affected your music career? 1 2 Next Fashion Entertainment Television People Media Add a Comment *We welcome comments that advance the story directly or with relevant tangential information.
