They do this competition where you go to their website and guess which 'classic hits artist' is behind a almost fully closed blind. Anyway, today it was Richie Sambora and some woman won $1000.
Anyway the interesting part came afterwards when the two DJ's were recalling they interviewed Richie last time he was in Sydney in his hotel room. Richie had a glass of coke, and Amanda, who had no idea he was a recovering alcoholic, asked him what was in his glass.
"Just Coke" Richie said and she pretended not to believe him, went over and sniffed his glass!
Then Jonesy, the other host, said not long after that Richie went on a massive bender and it was all Amanda's fault.
It was an amusing start to my day.
I was impressed by the fact that no one felt the need to point out that Richie was the Bon Jovi guitarist at any point.

Thanks for sharing this. I'm appalled at how anyone could think they can just go and interview Richie Sambora without at the very least have a clue about this major, relevant, recent (fingers crossed, not current) issue of his. You might as well just stay home and leave the job to someone else. How incredibly rude and stupid, I feel sorry for Richie.

Wow, I guess the line between newspapers and tabloids has definitely blurred now.
Not only do they pick up the gutter press rumors, they also come up with a few of their own!

The 53-year-old claimed that Jon Bon Jovi has ignored his requests to rejoin the band, especially for their 5 July gig at Hyde Park. "My opinion is, Jon wants to see if he can pull off stadiums by himself," he said.

What? Both of those statements from Richie are not confirmed and, in any case, the one about being willing to come back for the Hyde Park gig came out after the other. And the fact that Jon ignored his requests to rejoin is yet another unconfirmed rumor, actually the most likely to be bullshit of all. They shamelessly twist it and change it and tailor it to their convenience.
