Bret Michaels wins $100K for JDRF

Did anyone else watch Bret Michaels (Poison/Rock of Love) last night on Don't Forget the Lyrics? They're doing a series of charity episodes where celebrities compete to win money for their favorite charities.

Michaels got to the $200K level in the game, and split his winnings between the Juvenile Diabetes Research Fund and St. Jude's Children's hospital.

Of course, the bulk of the show was about the music, but he did give a quick explanation that he has Juvenile Diabetes (I don't remember him saying Type 1) and was on insulin shots. There's some more information about him and diabetes over at DiabetesHealth.com
