Bret Michaels To Replace Simon On ‘Idol?’

Bret Michaels could replace Simon Cowell as a judge on “American Idol” next season. During his return concert in Biloxi, Mississippi, last week, Bret told the crowd, “I can’t say this is true yet, ‘cause I don’t know. Next year they asked me to possibly be the judge on ‘American Idol.’” Michaels is still recovering from an emergency appendectomy, brain hemorrhage and a mini-stroke. He plans to have heart surgery later this year to repair a hole in his heart. He recently won the latest season of “Celebrity Apprentice.”
