And, as the 47-year-old rocker remains hospitalized in critical condition, Goldberg hopes that his friend can pull through and make a radical change to his lifestyle.

Goldberg - who was voted off Celebrity Apprentice just last week - told RadarOnline.com: “I just spoke with Bret the day before he got sick and I told him he had to slow down with his lifestyle.

“My own wife told me that I had to slow down and I realized that I must learn to listen to other people because you get so wrapped-up in your work schedule way too easily.

Meanwhile Bret’s other Celebrity Apprentice co-stars are “devastated” at the news and hoping he will fully recover.  Cyndi Lauper told RadarOnline.com, "Oh my God. It's so terrible, we're all so upset. My prayers are with him. He's a great guy. He's not a partier at all. Who ever is saying that doesn't know Bret at all. He's a really hard worker and he's a diabetic, so how could he be a partier? I just pray he's going to be okay. He's so nice to everyone on set. We're all devastated and waiting on pins and needles to hear if he's going to be okay."

As RadarOnline.com previously reported, Michaels remains hospitalized in critical condition Monday under round-the-clock medical care, less than five days after the rocker-turned-reality TV star suddenly fell ill from a brain hemorrhage.
