Jon Bon Jovi Jon Bon Jovi is NOT dead.
Repeating. He is not dead (nor is he living in East Longmeadow, but that's another bogus rumor).
Internet sites have been posting stories that the 49 year-old rocker died since Monday.
At a concert Monday night in New Jersey, Bon Jovi joked about the bogus reports of his death.
"He referred to the hoax several times, and even pantomimed taking phone calls from concerned friends checking to see if he was still alive," the Star-Ledger reported. "He even felt the need to rehash the old Mark Twain quip about how the reports of his death had been exaggerated.
Boni Jovi's Twitter feed posted this message: "Heaven looks a lot like New Jersey" -jbj. Rest assured that Jon is fine!"
The reports appear to have originated at dailynewbloginternational, according to the Los Angeles Times.
