Big news from Bon Jovi camp. Hugh McDonald’s wife has released a statement releasing BON JOVI’s new album as “f*cking awesome”.

Here’s what she said:

“Not sure if I should share this, but I heard the new BON JOVI album last night and it’s f*cking awesome!”

She continued:

“I really think that the diehard Bon Jovi fans are going to love it! And that’s all I gotta say about that.”

Earlier Richie Sambora’s absence from Jon Bon Jovi’s 2024 MusiCares Person of the Year ceremony was attributed to a significant reason—his 89-year-old mother’s mishap.

According to a source, she had a broken hip after tripping on a carpet last week. Richie Sambora, dedicated to caring for his mother in their home state of New Jersey, was notably absent from the ceremony.

Sambora took measures to ensure his mother’s comfort during her recovery. The source mentioned that she had been in rehab, and Sambora renovated their entire house, buying smaller furniture to make it easier for her. Opting for 24-hour care at home, Sambora, being the only child and a devoted son, prioritized his mother’s well-being.

The source highlighted the importance of family for Sambora, noting that they are first-generation immigrants. Meanwhile, Jon Bon Jovi, the honoree of the ceremony, was recognized for his philanthropic work with the JBJ Soul Foundation and contributions to music. The event featured a tribute concert at the Los Angeles Convention Center, leading up to the upcoming Grammy Awards. Bon Jovi performed the band’s new single, ‘Legendary,’ and was joined by surprise performer Bruce Springsteen for renditions of ‘Who Says You Can’t Go Home’ and ‘The Promised Land.’
