Jon Bon Jovi

Okay, I'll admit it: the second someone says his name, "Livin' on a Prayer" starts blasting in my head, and I'm not even mad about it. Jon Bon Jovi is the eternal Jersey rock-and-roll guy, the big-haired, gravel-voiced frontman who built a whole career on anthems made for fist-pumping in arenas and screaming along in the car. What I love is that under all the '80s glam and stadium gloss, his songs are basically blue-collar pep talks: hang on, we're halfway there, we'll make it. He's been doing the band thing since 1983 and somehow still sounds sincere about it, which is rare. Add a side hustle as a perfectly decent actor and a reputation as a genuinely down-to-earth dude, and yeah, count me a fan.
