Rock of Love: Bus with Bret Michaels has been temporarily suspended due to a fatal accident that killed two southern Illinois teens.



Dennis Hernandez, a crew member for Michaels show was driving his vehicle to the next tour location when he fell asleep behind the wheel and swerved into the northbound lane of Interstate 57.

Hernandez struck a pickup truck, injuring two others before smashing into Kevetta Davis, 19, and Yasmin Jackson, 19. Both girls died at the scene.

In a VH1 statement, Michaels asked that, "his participation in the series be temporarily suspended in deepest sympathy as he attempts to reach out" to the victims' families.

ugh...that Dennis guy isn't a member of Bret's crew..he has nothing to do with Bret's camp or anything with Bret....he works for some equipment company for the actual production of the show. I wish Bret's name wasn't getting plastered all over this like he was the one that killed them. I'm not being insensitive to the girls and their families, because its always unfortunate when people go before their time...it's just that all these reports are making it sound like Bret or someone in BME was the one that did it. sigh.
