Everyone knows who Kim Kardashian is, right?

Wrong!

On Friday, Bret Michaels mistook the reality star for Eva Longoria, who happens to share a birthday with the rocker.

The former “Rock Of Love” star tweeted, ”Wishing a #HappyBirthday to @EvaLongoria. Hope your day rocks!” along with a photo (right) of himself and… Kardashian.

Michaels quickly realized his gaffe and removed the post, but not before a follower could retweet it, saving the gem for posterity.

We’re sure Kardashian and Longoria, who are good friends, will have a laugh about this the next time they meet.

(Note: The photo of Michaels and Kardashian was taken on his tour bus in 2011).

Check out a screencap of the tweet below!

Donald Trump Fired Bret Michaels From Celebrity Apprentice: All-Stars Because He Never Wanted Him On Show?

Truth rating: 0

Donald Trump fired Bret Michaels from “Celebrity Apprentice: All-Stars” last week because of a “nasty battle” behind the scenes, according to RadarOnline.

The webloid claims Michaels’ dismissal from the show happened because “Trump was gunning for Bret from the start.”

Why?

“Donald wanted Bret to come back as a judge on the show, which he refused to do,” a so-called “source” tells RadarOnline, explaining, “Bret wanted the money he would get as a contestant, not as a judge.”

According to the blog’s insider, “Donald only wanted Bret as a judge. He did not want to have him back as a contestant but the show’s producers basically forced him into having Bret back.”

“They couldn’t force him to keep Bret around so he got rid of him the first opportunity he had,” explains the site’s source. “It is Donald’s show and he is going to run it the way he wants to.”

If RadarOnline’s complete lack of logic sounds baffling, that’s because it is.

The site is simultaneously arguing that Trump’s producers overpowered him and forced him to cast Michaels as a contestant… except Trump is the ultimate decision-maker, runs the show “the way he wants to,” and therefore fired Michaels as soon as possible.

This makes zero sense.

A source close to Michaels agrees, telling Gossip Cop that RadarOnline’s version of events is “crazy.”

We’re assured that while the rocker indeed could have come back as a judge, he “wanted to go back to raise more money and awareness for his charity” as a contestant.

CLAIM: Bret Michaels Was Crying “Mess” After Fired On All-Star Celebrity Apprentice

Truth rating: 0

2:41 pm, March 5th, 2013

(RadarOnline)

“Bret Bawls! Michaels Has Meltdown Over Celebrity Apprentice Elimination, ‘Crying And Totally Distraught,’” reads the headline of a new RadarOnline “exclusive” about Bret Michaels.

According to the webloid, “Bret was crying and totally distraught after he was fired” by Donald Trump in the first episode of ”All-Star Celebrity Apprentice.”

A so-called “source” for the blog says, “It was brutal to watch him freaking out the way he did.”

“It was a mess when Bret was told the news,” relates RadarOnline’s supposed source, adding, “He couldn’t stop crying and even the producers were trying to comfort him. No one expected him to have a meltdown like that.”

The only thing that’s “brutal” and a “mess” is the webloid’s report.

Michaels was NOT “crying” after being eliminated.

NONE of Gossip Cop’s “Apprentice” insiders could confirm RadarOnline’s out-of-the-blue claims.

A Michaels insider tells us the rocker took the firing in stride, and his view is “onward and upward.”

And a rep for “Celebrity Apprentice” further told Gossip Cop, “No tears were shed.”
