Twice-Bitten Bret Michaels Takes ‘Rock of Love’ On Tour

A two-time loser in his quest to find love in front of the cameras, Bret Michaels is doubling his powder and shortening his fuse in Rock of Love Bus with Bret Michaels, the third installment of VH1’s reality show which aims to find true love for the Poison frontman.

The new series will hit the air sometime in early 2009, VH1 officials said.

After things didn’t work out with women selected through a series of eliminations in each of the past two seasons of Rock of Love, Michaels is shaking things up a bit this time by taking a “tour bus filled with beautiful babes” across the country in his latest quest for “the one.”

“Seasons one and two of Rock of Love shattered ratings records and VH1 is so happy to have Bret back for another outrageous season,” Jeff Olde, VH1’s executive vice president of original programming and production, said in a statement. “This time we'll reveal Bret in his most comfortable setting—the infamous rock star tour bus.”

This time as the bus pulls into each new city, the girls will engage in challenges specifically revolving around Bret's life on the road. Whether it's greeting aggressive groupies with a smile, enduring grueling schedules, dodging the advances of the warm-up band or even stepping in last-minute to fill in for delinquent roadies—these girls will be put to the test.

Rock of Love Bus with Bret Michaels is created and executive produced by Mark Cronin and Cris Abrego for 51 Minds Entertainment, LLC, an Endemol Company.
