Rock star Bret Michaels will get to play the final round of The Celebrity Apprentice.

The Poison frontman passed muster with host Donald Trump on Sunday's edition and he'll be back for next week's live conclusion. Michaels will square off against actress Holly Robinson Peete to settle who wins the NBC reality competition.

"I came in here as a complete underdog," Michaels crowed after hearing the good news in Trump's boardroom. "You know what everyone's mistake was? They so underestimated me!"

Michaels' presence in the series, which though Sunday's episode had been taped months ago, stoked viewer interest after he suffered a brain haemorrhage in April that left him in intensive care. He has since been released from a Phoenix hospital. His doctor has said he is expected to make a full recovery.
