The owner of a $9 million house in California is suing former Poison frontman Bret Michaels who used the property as a base for a reality TV show he fronted called 'Rock Of Love'. The owner of the house, Ray Sahranavard, says that after the TV programme was filmed there, the property was in such a state, to the extent that there were holes in the ceilings and walls, that he had to undertake $380,000 in repairs and redecoration. He has already sued the makers of the reality show, in which a group of women compete for dates with the aging rocker, but has now added Michaels himself to the lawsuit, seemingly because the show's producers said they did not monitor the rocker's use of the house when filming was not going on. Sahranavard claims Michaels and the TV company are in breach of a contractual commitment to care for the property and, in the TV firm's case, for failing to take out the buildings insurance they pledged to do so. Both are also accused of negligence. Michaels is yet to respond to the litigation.
