Whether she was there to promote Penthouse or not, “Rock Of Love Bus” winner, Taya Parker, came out on top (probably literally) after winning Bret’s heart (or some other organ) on the reality show.

In a recent interview (conducted by Chaunce Hayden of Steppin’ Out) Taya explains why Danny Bonaduce’s fiancee Amy hates her (who knew?), what was going through her head after she won the Rock of Love Bus competition, and where things stand between her and Bret Michaels.

Chaunce Hayden: OK, answer me this: If you care so much about Bret, why is Danny Bonaduce claiming you hit on him a few weeks ago?

Taya Parker: That’s so funny! I went on his show during my Pet of the Year tour, and I told him I had a crush on him when I was a little girl. Not now! But his producers kept pushing it and pushing it asking if I would go on a date with Danny. The whole time I kept thinking, “He’s got a girlfriend.” His poor girlfriend. He actually said, “She got into a car accident and died, so now we can date.” That’s so horrible. Now, she hates me. The whole thing has been blown out of proportion. I honestly never stepped out of bounds. I think Danny just milked it for radio. On the record, I did not try to meet Danny behind his girlfriend’s back, and I definitely don’t want to sleep with him or date him. I have no interest.

On her feeling toward Bret Michaels:

Taya Parker: Once I realized the ring he was holding was for me, I started to look around thinking, “OK, are we getting married? Are my parents here?” To be honest, I told him after the show, “I’m glad you had your head on straight because I totally would have married you right then and there.” I really would have!

Will you be hurt if you never hear from him again?

I would definitely be hurt. Considering what I went through on that show, I would at least expect a phone call. I think being the person who he is he would do that. I left the ball in Bret’s court. If he wants to date, I’m jumping in with both feet. I could fall in love with him with the snap of a finger. There’s also a part of me that’s going to protect myself emotionally until I feel it’s safe for me to do that. So, stay tuned.

So, what do you guys think about Taya? I can’t get it out of my head that she reminds me of Amy Fisher! Also, her name, it’s so much like “Trailer Park”!

Did Bret make the right decision choosing her? OR should he have chosen Mindy?

Have you seen Taya’s Penthouse pics? Let’s just say it’s all out there folks. On the show she kept saying how classy she was. I laugh at what her definition of classy must be..

Her little innocent act of not sleeping with Bret the last night before he chose the winner…well, you know it killed her! So as soon as she got that meaningless ring at the final elimination you know her panties dropped quicker than you can say “POCK of Love!”
