The multi-platinum-selling rocker's 25 years with Poison have produced eight studio and four live albums, with hits including "Talk Dirty to Me," "Something to Believe in," and "Nothing But a Good Time," and the No. 1 "Every Rose Has Its Thorn." Michaels has since branched out with a chart-topping solo career, with his album, "Jammin' With Friends," released in 2013 and his single, "A Beautiful Soul," released in 2014.

On "Apprentice," Michaels, a lifelong diabetic, went head-to-head with top business-minded celebrities, donating his $250,000 prize to diabetes research and becoming an American Diabetes Association spokesperson. His Life Rocks Foundation benefits a number of charitable causes, including childhood cancer, diabetes, military support and pets.
