By request, I've compiled a gallery of photos of the incredibly sexy lead singer of Bon Jovi, Jon Bon Jovi. I have photos of him in the 80's to now with his shirt, magazine covers and studio shots. I'm sure there is something here for everyone. Be sure to give it a thumbs and a comment!

Jon Bon Jovi Bio

Jon Bon Jovi was born John Francis Bongiovi, Jr., in Perth Amboy, New Jersey, the son of hairdresser John Francis Bongiovi, Sr. and one-time Playboy bunny Carol Sharkey. He is Italian-American and grew up in neighboring Sayreville, New Jersey. Bon Jovi attended St. Joseph High School, in Metuchen, New Jersey during his freshman and sophomore years. He later transferred to Sayreville War Memorial High School in Parlin, New Jersey.

When he was 17, John was working sweeping floors at his cousin Tony Bongiovi's recording studio, The Power Station. In 1980, when Meco was there recording Christmas in the Stars: The Star Wars Christmas Album, Tony recommended John for the song "R2-D2 We Wish You A Merry Christmas." This became his first professional recording (credited as John Bongiovi).[8]

After a brief stint in the band Scandal, John attracted the attention of Atlantic Records and Mercury Records. Once Bon Jovi had put together his initial band and began playing showcases and opening for local talent as the John Bongiovi Band, they caught the attention of record executive Derek Shulman, who signed John to Mercury Records, part of the PolyGram company. Because John wanted a group name, Jerry Jaffe, A&R head at PolyGram at the time, came up with Bon Jovi, changing the spelling and rationalizing that it had the cadence of Van Halen and an oblique reference to AC/DC's, Bon Scott. The band didn't really like it. (Doc McGhee scoffed that it made the band sound like "French ice cream"). But within a week it was adopted without much fanfare. John then removed the 'h' in his first name to make it Jon. He re-emerged as Jon Bon Jovi. The group was collectively known as Bon Jovi.

And the rest is history.
