Livin' On A Prayer

SOME love him, others loath him.

It has been more than 24 years since the debut album Bon Jovi hit the streets. Today, at age 46, Jon Bon Jovi once again steals the spotlight as he plans a massive free concert, named the All-Star Concert in Central Park in New York next Saturday (July 12).

This is part of the band's tenth album Lost Highway tour which is scheduled to end on July 15.

Was never a fan of the New Jersey born singer. Being Italian-American, Bon Jovi swept floors at his cousin's recording studio when he 17 and was later given a break to record his first song R2-D2 We Wish You A Merry Christmas for the Christmas in the Stars: The Star Wars Christmas Album.

Bon Jovi's scored high marks from it's album titled Cross Road which included hits such as Always and and updated rendition of Livin On A Prayer.

He also had several acting stints including The Leading Man, Homegrown, Little City and Pay It Forward.

Bon Jovi also contemplated in running for governor of New Jersey last year. A spokesman added coyly;

"Jon has been approached many times about running for office." Jesus. Has he? It really is a fantastic country, isn't it? Literally anyone can achieve stuff.

Voted as the sexiest Rock Star by People Magazine in 2000, 2002 & 2003 and was listed as the greatest 100 sexiest artist by VH1, it's no wonder Bon Jovi is still a hit among the ladies.

But a ladies man he will only be for Bon Jovi's music can never be compared to the likes of real rock legends Pink Floyd, Jimi Hendrix and Led Zeppelin.
