Bon Jovi Sued For $400 Billion

I almost didn't write about this story until I saw the amount of money Jon Bon Jovi was being sued for. How can I pass up a lawsuit for $400 Billion dollars?


I mean $400 BILLION dollars? A Massachusetts-based musician Samuel Bartley Steele is suing Bon Jovi for allegedly stealing his lyrics from (Man I Really) Love This Team and rewriting them to create I Love This Town.

Steele alleges the group’s frontman Jon Bon Jovi heard the song while campaigning for U.S. Democratic presidential nominee John Kerry in 2004, and used its lyrics to create his hit song I Love This Town - which was later used as a promotional track for Major League Baseball.

He wants $100,000 for every cd sold. Since there were 4,000,000 that were distributed - he felt it was the right number to pitch to a judge. Good luck Samuel... good luck.

"As intent will be easy to prove, we are seeking the statutorily authorized amount of $100,000 per CD sold. Just under 4 million CDs have been sold to date. This totals almost $400 billion."

While plagiarism should be fined, the amount is just absurd and makes the case laughable. If he would have requested a reasonable amount, this court case might have been taken more seriously. Either way, let's see what the judge awards if anything.

Hollywood Men Round Up

Dane Cook was out in Boston to promote the fall issue of, "Boston Common Magazine" on which he's on the cover. I'm not quite sure why he cut his hair so short... Your thoughts?

Another Hollywood hunk, Jude Law was at the opening of the new Alfred Dunhill clothing store in London last night. We've been noticing a bit of hair loss on Jude's part. Should he just shave it all the way? Or are you ok with the transition?

Last, but not least we have rocker Jon Bon Jovi who will ALWAYS have a spot in my heart. He was photographed in Soho laughing and having a great time looking at buildings.

Jon Bon Jovi Has Nothing But Nice Things To Say

In the newest issue of Glamour magazine, Jon Bon Jovi poked fun at a few of the celebrities we all know and love. At least, I hope he was joking. I understand he has been successful for 20 or 80 years, but don't take away from other people's accomplishments.

  • Robbie Williams: "That guy? He couldn't fill a bar. He couldn't even sell 500 tickets.



  • Oasis: "They couldn't fill a bar, either - and they're full of themselves.



  • Pete Doherty: "We're not familiar of anything other than his antics and the fact that he's always in trouble - I've never heard a single one of his songs."



  • David Beckham: "Is he past his prime?"


I featured Jon Bon Jovi as a Hot Guy of the Day a few months back. To see his pictures, click here.
