Jon Bon Jovi - Bon Jovi's Bar Mistake

JON BON JOVI invested in his New York restaurant by accident - after mistakenly thinking he was buying into a jazz club.

The rocker is a co-owner of The Blue Parrot in the exclusive Hamptons area, which attracts stars including Sir Paul MCCartney, Bill Murray and Sarah Jessica Parker.

But Bon Jovi admits he hadn't planned on working in the restaurant business.

He tells Britain's Q magazine, "I was at a dinner with (billionaire investor) Ronald Perelman and Ralph Lauren. I thought they were talking about the Blue Note jazz club and I was just trying to get in on the conversation.

"They said, 'Okay, you're in.' Next thing I know we own the Blue Parrot. Renee Zellweger bought in, too. It's a 50-seat hole-in-the-wall for gazillionaires who drink and do a little karaoke."
