Tattle: Bret Michaels a little slow on his feet

AFTER ALL THE booze, babes and bad behavior, something finally got the best of Poison's Bret Michaels.

Broadway.

Forgetting that, unlike rock concerts, the theater runs on time, Michaels took too long acknowledging the crowd at the Tony Awards Sunday night and got conked on the head as he tried to limbo offstage under a scenery piece descending on cue whether he was in the way or not.

Host Neil Patrick Harris later quipped it gave new meaning to "headbanging."

Publicist Joann Mignano said that Michaels broke his nose and needed three stitches in his lip. She said that he was getting a CAT scan yesterday as a precaution (just as Tattle's mom got one at lovely Lancaster General Hospital Saturday night after conkin' her noggin).

This will likely be another chance to paraphrase the old Yogi Berra joke: "Doctors took a CAT scan of Bret Michaels' brain yesterday and found nothing."

* In Tony-related news, host Harris, who should be named emcee for life after his fine job Sunday night, has signed on to two movies.

The Hollywood Reporter says that Harris will star in "The Best and the Brightest" and have a supporting role in "Beastly."

Directed by Josh Shelov, "Best," which is now shooting in Philadelphia, is about a Delaware couple who move to NYC and get wrapped up in the crazy class system of Manhattan's private kindergartens.

In "Beastly," Harris is playing a blind tutor who helps a hideous teen (Alex Pettyfer). Vanessa Hudgens and Mary-Kate Olsen also star in that one, and what's the bet that one of them falls in love with the guy.

* We're not sure who Anne Hathaway knows at Stub Hub but after sitting front-row center at the Oscars and performing with Hugh Jackman, she was front and center at the Tonys and got a lot of screen time when one of the stars of "Hair" jumped into her lap.

After performing Shakespeare in the Park this summer in New York, Anne is likely to re-team with her "Brokeback Mountain" hubby Jake Gyllenhaal in Ed Zwick's "Love and Other Drugs."

Hopefully this romance will work out better.

The Hollywood Reporter says that "Drugs" comes from former Pfizer sales rep Jamie Reidy's book "Hard Sell: The Evolution of a Viagra Salesman."

Jake will play the salesman, who begins a relationship with Anne, whom he meets on a sales call.

Gyllenhaal has been warned that should his performance last more than four hours he should seek medical attention.
