Bret Michaels fuelled rumours he will replace Simon Cowell on American Idol as he made his concert comeback following a string of health scares.
The star appeared onstage in Biloxi, Mississippi on Friday, marking his first full gig since suffering a near-fatal brain haemorrhage, an emergency appendectomy and a stroke.
Despite a slight limp, Michaels performed a string of his Poison hits for the crowd, including ‘Talk Dirty to Me’ and ‘Every Rose Has Its Thorn’.
He told his fans, "I've got a little bitty hitch in my left giddy up, but I think we'll be all right. It's an awesome feeling, I'm glad to be here."
And he even hinted about taking Cowell's seat on the Idol judging panel next year, announcing: "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."
