According to Dmagazine.com, billionaire businessman Donald Trump counselled singer Bret Michaels to file suit against CBS and Tony Award Productions and others over injuries Michaels suffered at the 2009 Tony Awards, the POISON lead singer said in Dallas Saturday.
Talks to resolve the matter earlier broke down because, “let’s just say, they were pretty cold,” Michaels said, referring to the defendants in the lawsuit, which was filed in L.A. by his lawyers Friday. While Trump offered to intercede and advised him to sue aggressively, Michaels said, he decided mainly to ask to be compensated for work-time lost due to his injuries, which included stitches with a cut lip and a broken nose.
