I’m not interested in any of that, nor would I do it.”
He then admitted that he “had to come to terms with having gray hair,” and when “[stylists] would put hair color in, I hated that. So, I just said, ‘Screw it,’ like 12-13 years ago. I wouldn’t do that, and so I had to come to terms with aging.”
Also during the interview, the “Livin’ on a Prayer” singer looked back at his younger days.
“You know, I look at pictures of me now, I’m not happy about it,” Jon said. “I look at 30, 40, 50, and I go, ‘Yeah, I would rather look like that,’ but I don’t.”
As for the benefits of getting older, Jon said that gaining “wisdom” has been a huge upside.
“These next couple years can be great if I’m physically right — because of the wisdom,” he explained. “The rollercoaster ride of getting punched in the face forces you to take stock in any- and everything. And health, of course, is No. 1 on the list. You can always make a buck. You can always write another song. But your health is key to the universe.”
In another recent interview, Jon Bon Jovi gushed over becoming a grandfather after his son Jake Bongiovi and his wife Millie Bobby Brown adopted a baby girl over the summer!
