Jon Bon Jovi is a Swiftie and has high praise for Taylor Swift.
During an interview with Variety for their podcast, Bon Jovi praised Swift, calling her “absolutely incredible.” His biggest compliment is that she has created her own path and utilizes “what she does best.”
“She sings like Taylor Swift, She plays guitar like Taylor Swift,” Bon Jovi said. “She's not trying to be something that she's not, and it is connected with an audience that is unique.”
At the moment, Taylor Swift is the biggest star in the world. She is currently embarking on a European leg of the “Eras” tour and will play three nights in Liverpool, England, from June 13-15. From there, she has a show in Cardiff, Wales, before three-night stays in London, England, Dublin, Ireland, and Amsterdam, Netherlands.
For the rest of the summer, Swift will continue playing shows across Europe. The European leg of the tour will conclude with another stay at Wembley Stadium in London, England. This time, though, Swift will play five dates at the iconic venue before heading back to the United States.
The “Eras” tour is currently slated to end on December 8, 2024, with a show in Vancouver, Canada. Before that, Swift will return for nine shows in the United States.
Additionally, Swift released a concert film to commemorate the tour. It quickly became the highest-grossing concert film of all time, fitting for the highest-grossing concert tour of all time.
In April 2024, Swift released her eleventh studio album of original music, The Tortured Poets Department. She announced the album while accepting the Best Pop Vocal Album Grammy Award for Midnights.
Who is Jon Bon Jovi?
Jon Bon Jovi is known for founding and serving as the lead singer of Bon Jovi. The rock band has been together since 1983 and they have won one Grammy Award for Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal (“Misunderstood”).
The band made their debut in 1984 with their self-titled album. It featured hit songs like “Runaway” and “She Don't Know Me.” In 1986, the band released Slippery When Wet which features the band's biggest hit to this day, “Livin' on a Prayer.”
To this day, the band is making new music. Over the past decade, Bon Jovi has released four studio albums. On June 7, 2024, the band released their latest album, Forever. This was their first studio effort since the lead singer had vocal cord surgery.
Bon Jovi has also embarked on 19 concert tours. While they were previously touring machines, the band's singer seems uncertain about their future. He is attempting to recover from surgery in time to tour for the band's fortieth anniversary.
“It's a range of emotions on a daily basis,” Bon Jovi said of being in vocal therapy. “Yesterday was unbelievable. And today was less than perfection. It's frustrating. I know that none of us can achieve perfection, but I have to achieve excellence in order for me to do it on that level again, or I won't.
“I don't want to pretend to be something I was … I don't try to be that boy from 29 years ago, but I want to be the very best version of the 2024 version of me,” he added.
