Bon Jovi quashes death rumours with festive photo

Jon Bon Jovi is alive and well following a death hoax that spread around the world last night via social networking site Twitter. 

Yesterday evening, December 19, news that the rocker had passed away became viral and the 'information' soon turned into a global trending topic, but the iconic frontman posted a rather humorous photograph to his Facebook page to reassure fans that he is fine. 

Standing in front of a decorated Christmas tree, the 'You Give Love A Bad Name' star was pictured grinning and holding a piece of paper that had "Heaven looks a lot like New Jersey. December 19th, 2011" written on it and a message was also posted to his Twitter account that explained:

"Rest assured that Jon is fine! This photo was just taken."
