Is Bon Jovi Coming To Las Vegas?
Sep 3rd
Could Bon Jovi be leaving the road for a long stay in the desert?
All over the web, people were talking about a rumor claiming that Bon Jovi has been offered a highly lucrative deal to have a residency at a top Las Vegas hotel. Given the popularity (and success) of these Vegas residencies, it doesn’t seem that implausible.
Even Perez Hilton reported on this rumor. Yet a rep for the band tells Gossip Cop that “It’s not true.”
Is this a rumor that just took on a life of it’s own, or is there more to the story? We’ll just have to wait and see!

Bon Jovi — Most Boobiful Photoshoot of All Time
Jul 27th
Jon Bon Jovi never wanted the world to see these incredibly awesome photos of him and half-naked women from the ’80s — but they’re coming out now, and TMZ has the pictures!
According to a new book — “Sex, Drugs and Bon Jovi” — the bodacious pics of the band cavorting with topless women on a bed are from a 1985 photoshoot that was deemed way too risqué for the public. So, the sexy snapshots never saw the light of day … until now.
The guy who wrote the book — Bon Jovi’s tour manager at the time — claims Jon went ballistic trying to keep the photos under wraps, because he was afraid they’d ruin his reputation. The pics just prove what everyone already assumed – Being a rock star is AWESOME.

Bon Jovi Fires Their Longtime Manager
Jun 21st
Perez Hilton is reporting that Bon Jovi fired their longtime manager Jack Rovner, after it was reported that he messed up several times during their current promotional tour.
The first snafu occurred when $1,000 VIP tickets were sold that included a meet-and-greet with the band, however fans complained that after shelling out the dough, they were never granted access to meet the band.
Then, Rovner booked an “artist in residence” gig on NBC, which prevented them from promoting their new album The Circle on other networks.
And the real topper was when he was responsible for the Showtime documentary When We Were Beautiful, in which “Jon makes the rest of the band admit they are paid employees and owe everything to him.”
When Rovner was reportedly told he was “lucky to have a job” after sending his lawyer Michael Guido to ask Jon for a raise, Bon Jovi decided to take a stand and tell their side of the story:
Though I personally live for and love Page Six, I’m sorry to say that the tidbit you have received regarding the split between Vector Management and Bon Jovi is inaccurate. The boring truth is we decided to go in different directions and thanked both Jack and his team for a great job. He is and will remain a close friend and someone who I will be very grateful to for his dedication.
A spokeswoman for Vector Management said, “Jack and everyone at Vector are very proud of the work they did [with Bon Jovi] together over the last five years, including their first Grammy awards, first No. 1 chart debuts globally, and even a No. 1 on the country charts. Vector continues to represent the nation’s top-selling acts, including Kings of Leon, Kid Rock, Dierks Bentley and many others.”
I’m sure there’s probably more to the story than they’re letting on, but at least they’re putting on a nice face for the public.
