Bret Michaels, the rock star, may have opted for a career as a long-haul trucker due to his love for the open road.

Bret Michaels loves the open road.

He, a renowned rock celebrity, has spent considerable time exploring the nation.

"He revealed to Planet Chronicle Digital that he loves traveling and that if he had not continued to succeed in music, he would have still been in a cover band. He stated that he enjoys playing music, which is therapeutic to him, but he could also be a DJ or a long-haul trucker."

""I love driving and the open road," he added."

Poison's founder, Michaels, stated that being on tour constantly never resulted in a bad day for him.

But he admitted balancing work and family time could be difficult.

""Becoming a father was tough for me, especially when my kids had a special event and I couldn't be there because I was in South America. Those moments are bittersweet as a dad," he explained."

Being on the road, I understand everyone's desire for it. I am thankful. As the movie 'The Godfather' says, 'This is the life we've chosen.'

Michaels and partner Kristi Gibson share daughters Raine, 24, and Jorja, 19.

A biography about the renowned rocker will be released this month, allowing the 61-year-old to contemplate his accomplished career.

On Father's Day, June 16, A&E will premiere "Biography: Bret Michaels." According to Michaels, it was a fitting choice because he loves being a dad.

Despite being nervous, Michaels' daughters excelled in their first live interviews.

"I believe I am an excellent father, and we enjoy spending time together," he stated. "And I say, ‘Girls, if you want to do this, the producers would love it. They came in, and the producers praised our work."

Michaels expressed his desire to create a comprehensive biography. The producers and A&E were exceptional, and we traveled extensively.

The rocker, his daughter Raine, and Fox Sports producer Jay Glazer are planning a podcast called "The Rock, The Jock & The Talk."

He said that they would discuss the funniest topics on the show, which are evergreen and they would just wing it.

Jorja is in school and wants to open up incredible hair salons and make cosmetology products. She's an amazing entrepreneur.

The dad added, "I hope both of them live out the lives they want and I will support them."

While working as a busboy in Pennsylvania, Michaels recalls hearing about a house with a basement that belonged to a man named Rikki Rockett, who was a fellow founding member of Poison.

"He explained, "I said, 'That's all I need,' and got my first PA system. I carried it down to his basement in the winter, while it was snowing. I put on work boots and bellbottoms, and we hit it off as friends. We started playing music, and eventually met Bobby [Dall], who was as driven as we are.""

He stated, "We had each other's backs and continue to do so through many great things, but also through tough times. We played small venues, like the Paradise Bar and Grill, where we had to move the pool table to make room for the drum kit. Despite these challenges, we never lost our spirit of never giving up."

Michaels recalled that they felt like they had truly "hit" as a band when Aerosmith and Boston's Paul Stanley joined them on stage at a Texas stadium, in front of an audience of 83,000 fans.

"Michaels stated that the day was insanely awesome for him, but a few hours later, they went to a truck stop diner and no one recognized or cared about them. This experience taught him the importance of focusing on the music, friends, and not chasing fame. It was the best bittersweet day in his life."

In his childhood, Michaels faced adversity, despite his many successes.

The singer of "Every Rose Has its Thorn" attributes his ability to cope with his health issues, including a brain hemorrhage, heart surgery, and kidney surgery, to the positive attitude instilled in him by his parents.

"I knew I would encounter obstacles, but I want to thank my parents for teaching me 'victory over victim,'" he said. "They're like, 'It's the cards you've dealt. You'll have to work harder, but if you do, you'll be able to achieve your goals.'"

Since childhood, Michaels has had Type 1 diabetes, and in 2010 he experienced a brain hemorrhage and "warning stroke," requiring intensive care for nearly two weeks.

He told People magazine that he knew he was slurring his words and thought, "This isn't a headache. Something really bad is happening," after it happened.

Following his brain hemorrhage, a year later he underwent surgery for a hole in his heart that he had since childhood, which had been discovered after his appendectomy.

In 2014, Michaels was hospitalized six times in two weeks and underwent kidney surgery due to several medical issues, as his guitarist Pete Evick stated at the time.

Despite everything, he expressed gratitude for the "excellent medical care he's received," his faith, family, friends, and fans.

He also tries to stay in great shape.

"According to Planet Chronicle Digital, Michaels stated, "Endorphins are what I live for. They make me feel great and put me in a positive mood. They prevent me from getting down or depressed.""

Upon waking up, he checks his blood sugar, takes insulin, eats a small snack, and then exercises.

"He clarified that there is no set workout routine when he says "workout," as his exercise routine may vary depending on his location. For instance, while on the road, his workout could involve using rubber bands for resistance training, such as wrapping them around a desk leg or door for back exercises."

He mentioned that he enjoys mountain biking and jogging around the lake near his residence.

"So, exercise is huge for me."

He joked about being so focused on fitness that he did an interview while mountain biking.

"As I pedaled along while conducting the interview, he chuckled and said, 'One thing I can say for sure is to be grateful for the amazing things that come your way. You only get one chance at life, so make the most of it. I mean, I don't get to go back and change things, so I just embrace the discomfort and keep pushing forward.'"

Michaels aims to spread positive energy.

"Making others feel good brings me joy, and I don't derive pleasure from putting people down. I prefer to lift them up and share laughter with them. I've been asked to do roasts, but they don't bring me any satisfaction. Instead, I find happiness in spending time with good friends and family, spreading positivity and good vibes to overcome adversity."

A&E will air the premiere of "Biography: Bret Michaels" on June 16 at 9 p.m.
