    Bon jJovi"What a selfish, miserable life that would be. It's a terrible existence!" --John Bon Jovi

    In a recent interview, Bon Jovi's frontman insisted that a life of leisure is vile. "What good are you doing? What purpose are you serving? What legacy are you leaving?" he asks.

    Jon and his band have given a lot to charity. You've apparently never heard of Habitat for Humanity?

    Saw him on Larry King.
    What an egotistical little control freak he is.
    His bandmates must be living in hell.

    The only legacy he is leaving is "good hair". That was when he had some.

    How dare any of you! You don't know this man and all the good he has done and will continue to do for the rest of his life, he has brought nothing buy joy, love, and happiness to all of his fans and children around the world, he was in my neighborhood building a playground at the Northern Home for boys, he did not have to do that or any of the many unbelievable things he has done for people all over the world, so go bash someone who deserves to be bashed!!!! Keep up the good work John!!
