"You're looking at the face of a man who took on the&lt;strong&gt; Tony Awards&lt;/strong&gt; -- and barely made it out alive. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img hspace=\"4\" border=\"0\" vspace=\"4\" alt=\"Bret Michaels\" src=\"http://ll-media.tmz.com/2009/06/11/0611_bret_michaels-1.jpg\" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Bret Michaels&lt;/strong&gt; just posted these gruesome pics of his busted ass face after a prop at the award show came down and &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http://www.tmz.com/2009/06/08/broadway-set-takes-out-brett-michaels/\"&gt;cracked him in the kisser&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; at the end of a live performance Sunday night. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Poison&lt;/strong&gt; frontman also posted a scathing press release on his website, attacking the Tony's for not caring about his injuries-- because he's not &lt;strong&gt;Liza Minnelli&lt;/strong&gt;!! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here's a snippet from the actual release -- \"I feel had this incident happened to Liza Minnelli, Dolly Parton or Elton John the Tonys would have at least issued a letter of concern.\"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the statement, Bret claims he was dazed and bloodied during the incident, but \"the full extent of his injuries remains to be seen until all x-rays are back.\"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Michaels reps claim someone working on the Tony's should have prevented the injury form ever happening, saying \"the prop should have been immediately halted until Michaels was clear.\"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sounds like someone's setting the stage for a serious lawsuit...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=\"http://www.aolcdn.com/tmz_documents/0611_brett_michaels_wm.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"&gt;&lt;img hspace=\"4\" border=\"0\" align=\"left\" vspace=\"4\" src=\"http://ll-media.tmz.com/2009/06/11/0611_brett_launch_275-1.jpg\" alt=\"Bret Michaels Tony Awards\" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;\n&lt;div class=\"related\"&gt;\n&lt;h3&gt;&lt;span&gt;See Also&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;\n&lt;ul&gt;\n    &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=\"http://www.tmz.com/2009/06/08/broadway-set-takes-out-brett-michaels/\"&gt;Broadway Set Takes Out Bret Michaels&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;\n&lt;/ul&gt;\n&lt;/div&gt;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
