Michael is in Chattanooga, TN. He does blow in a bar on Market St.
This guy is the only person I have ever seen say “yes” so quickly. As soon as JVV did “the speech”, Michael didn’t even let his family have a voice. I don’t know if Candy would have done the same, she is pretty intent on letting the family articulate their feelings for their own sake. I could actually relate to Michael in a few ways, and I wonder how he’s doing.
Just watched his episode and had to look him up. I wonder how he’s doing. I thought he was so handsome in his episode. Also made me laugh a few times. I could relate to so much of what he said. I hope he’s doing better
Michael wasn’t in Season 2…He was in Season 1 on the Brooks episode
Does anyone have any updates on Michael? He was so intelligent and articulate. I loved hearing his voice. He’s handsome as well. I really hope he found recovery.
He did not. Multiple arrests and charges since the airing.
Aw that’s such a shame… I agree he sounded very intelligent and witty, and was attractive indeed. I hope for him he gets better!
thank you to everyone who posted about Michael. he was so smart and handsome. Michael committed suicide Jan 15 2022. we all miss him so much. I love you Michael fly high with the Angels baby boy
