Rock of Love 4: The Light Rail?

Why is Bret Michaels incapable of finding true love? Or does he even want to? After all VH-1 is willing to provide him 24 women at each stage; it is like a perpetually refreshing harem. And believe me, the way he kissed the runner-up on the reunion show for the Rock of Love Bus suggests that "happily ever after" may not be a concept in his lexicon of love. Perhaps his heart was fatally wounded by the rose that had that thorn and he is unable to commit, and again VH-1 is providing him no reason to commit. After all, this show has resurrected his career. He has gone from playing dive bars to outdoor arenas. I am sure he has been able to buy a whole new set of bandanas, t-shirts, and faded jeans at the very least. But his judgment may not have improved. In the latest iteration, he dumped Mindy, a woman that is still head over heels in love with him three months after the show ended, for Taya, a former Penthouse Pet, who is now currently a "featured" stripper (not sure what that means). Leafing through this week's Westword, I was amazed to see she was appearing at La Boheme, a local strip club where apparently she will be featured. Somehow I doubt that Bret is touring with her; although I find the concept of her doing a stripper-pole opening act for a Poison/Whitesnake double bill to be the next step in rock marketing. What is worse for poor Bret (who can be sympathetic at times with his diabetes and his love of the Steelers) is that Danny Bonaduce is claiming that Taya tried to seduce him. When Danny is claiming a dalliance with your gal, you know you are in trouble. Meanwhile, poor Mindy, who laid her heart on the table and perhaps much more, is left pining away. Who knows – she may get her own show just like Daisy has? All I know is that ring for Taya may keep burning a hole in Bret's pocket. But I am sure he will have no problem finding 24 more women willing to be the consolation, and consoling, prize.
