Jon Bon Jovi Films Video In Nashville
Jon Bon Jovi and his self-named band celebrated their 40th anniversary a few months ago with a Hulu documentary, Thank You, Goodnight: The Bon Jovi Story. The documentary also explored the frontman’s vocal cord surgery and his struggle to recover.
The band formed in New Jersey in 1983. Jon Bon Jovi, David Bryan, and Tico Torres are the only three original members remaining. Richie Sambora left the band in 2013 under tense circumstances. Alec John Such left in 1994 and sadly passed away in 2022.
While Bon Jovi may never tour again due to Jon Bon Jovi’s voice issues, they released a new album Forever in June. JBJ was in Tennessee earlier this week to film a music video for the song “People’s House” on the famed John Seigenthaler Pedestrian Bridge in downtown Nashville.
The rocker was in the right place at the right time to save a life.
Stops Video Shoot To Save A Woman’s Life
While filming the music video, Jon Bon Jovi noticed a woman standing on the ledge of the bridge, about to jump off. According to TMZ, JBJ quickly intervened by approaching the woman and talking her down.
The video footage shows the rocker casually leaning against the bridge railing, having a conversation with the unnamed woman. What exactly JBJ said hasn’t been released. However, it was enough to get the woman off the bridge.

Other Ways He Gives Back
Jon Bon Jovi lives in a million-dollar mansion but does what he can to stay humble and give back to the less fortunate. He said in the documentary that he stayed away from drugs and alcohol during the band’s heyday. JBJ believes that’s part of the reason for the band’s longevity.
In 2006, he created the Jon Bon Jovi Soul Foundation with his wife, Dorothea Hurley. The foundation combats homelessness with low-income housing. The frontman’s JBJ Soul Kitchen fights hunger by offering free or ‘pay-as-you-wish’ meals at several locations in New Jersey.
The foundation also offers job training and other services to help lift people out of poverty. News of the rock star saving a woman’s life swept the internet, with many calling him a hero.
He has yet to publicly address the situation that very well could have had an entirely different ending.
The Bon Jovi singer was reportedly in talks to join American Idol as a judge, but the job ultimately went to Carrie Underwood.
