JBJ Observer Interview - Pretty Good one

The interviewer seems like a bitch, but her points are really dead on. To be honest, Jon asks for these kind of interviews with the spoiled brat, entitled attitude he has.

And quote this interview whenever someone claims Jon is politically knowledgeable. He's just another ignorant sycophant.

The bored to tears quote, I actually think is about the interview. That reporter walked into that interview with her mind made up about Jon and no matter what he said or did, she was not changing her mind. He could see that a mile away and just was going with the flow. He has done countless of interviews over the years and he can read reporters as well and probably knows the direction that the interview will be going in.

I didn't like the way it was written. They could have at least bolded the questions instead of whacking it all together the way they did.

10 pounds overweight? Jon, you're a dickhead. If anything, you're underweight, you tool.

The interviewer needs to some research before writing this article

I agree with you, she went in with a lot of preconceptions. And all the references to his teeth was certainly not necessary. Someone on the backstage board reported they were actually in the same hotel when this interview took place and met the reporter. She told this fan that Jon was actually "lovely" so...looks like she just wants to sell more newspapers!!

it's HIS FAULT deb .. he sells his image like if it was what we should look at ..I think like wrath mania said that the interviewer is bitchy but she also is right if you know jon enough you KNOW she is dead on ...

I don't know how we can keep on thinking nah he is great and she is a the bad one after so many years do we have our brain turned into pudding ? I don't like it but Jon is often horrendous on interview he hates to be questioned and not trusted he hates to justify what he does but that's the price of the game like you said on backstage he can be a prick and diva-ish to the maximum .. the teeth reference it's because those veneers are his tool to seduce but sometimes it's not working and she is making fun of him about that.... if he was not that much focused on his look then he didn't need to change the veneers that often .... he had changed them so many times .. this may be the norm for you but not for the interviewer probably ..I also had to cringe at the girl on backstage board saying it was not true because she was at the hotel and her friend was friend with the journalist ... so what ??? the journalist said jon put the blame on her at the beginning that doesnt make it that she is the one to blame that's her tone she is that way but the man she describes is dead on jon bon jovi

polly vernon is depute editor on the observer ...I wonder how she was friends with some brazilians fans stalking jbj in his hotel to be honest

"I'm bored."

Oh shut up. Christ, if you're so damn bored, quit and go skydiving. Stop your damn whining.

did we really expect anything else from this interview?
everyone knows JB just can't be bothered with the british press. i can't remember one decent one-to-one in a newspaper over here. he always comes across as disinterested, which may be because he feels he's received some rough coverage - which is true.

And you know he's ignorant because you've spent how much time sitting in a room talking with him about politics????? Or any other issue??? FYI, I have heard Jon speak at a conference on volunteering and dealing with homelessness. The man does his homework, he pays attention, he knows his stuff. He isn't ignorant at all.

You know what's funny ?? How quick some are to hold up the "Jon beinga bit of a Rock Star prick" as being the REAL JBJ. Not denying in any way that he can be this at all, but is this part of him any more real than the Jon, who through candid photos, seems very content and happy to walk the streets of NYC with his wife, enjoying her company and the day???
Or more real than the Jon that spoke at a conference I went to a while back, who was thoughtful, knowledgeable, well spoken, and passionate about what he spoke about??
Or more real than the man who was cheering on and laughing with his daughter in London??
Or more real than the Jon that steps onstage and sings and performs his ass off ??

I think all these are part and parcel pieces of Jon and who he is, and picking out one and holding it up as "this is the REAL JBJ" just doesn't really make any sense.

Thank you. I agree.

For someone who claims to be so in touch with the homeless and downtrodden, all this whingeing and whining about how tough it all is for him just makes him look like a twat.
