During a screening for ‘Thank You, Goodnight: The Bon Jovi Story’, Jon Bon Jovi dished on having his identity intertwined with hailing from New Jersey
There's only one place that can call Jon Bon Jovi one of their own — and the musician believes hailing from New Jersey helped shape who he is.
In the ‘90s, Bon Jovi and wife Dorothea Hurley relocated to California, where they bought a beach house in Malibu. However, he quickly learned the West Coast was not the right place for them. “I played the movie star game and I said, ‘I don't like this. I don't like these people,’” the dad of four — who shares Stephanie, 30, Jesse, 28, Jake, 21, and Romeo, 19, with Hurley — recalled during the discussion, held at iPic Theater in New York City.
Jovi also touched on deciding to let cameras come along as Bon Jovi hit the road in 2022 for the four-part docuseries. “We, as a band, were never afraid to lay out our emotions — we just never necessarily had the platform to do it on,” he shared, noting Thank You, Goodnight shares a revealing look into “births, deaths, marriages, divorces, addiction, breakups, make-ups, the rise and the fall.”
