Bon Jovi absolutely. He still looks fairly good now

stepupp · 18/07/2026 20:04

Sex on a stick.

(I've always had a thing for floppy blonde hair thanks to River Phoenix and JBJ).

Oh sorry video doesn't work.

Was a youtube link to him titled Bon Jovi - Bed Of Roses (Acoustic) Best Quality

One of them is going to be a bit gutted then at coming second.

When I was 13 or 14 how nice looking rock stars looked really mattered to me.
I can't understand actual adult women bothering about this.

And as these guys are now in their 60s they would need to be pretty pathetic specimens to think their worth really depended on adulation of their looks.

OwlBeThere · 18/07/2026 20:07

This is like Sophie’s Choice. I want to be the filling in that particular sandwich. 😂

What are you bothered about? Hydrangeas?

Calm down Ebenezer, Christmas is months away yet.

Axl 😍 sexy as fuck. And less hairy.

Oh please don't mention Christmas!

Mrstawnyowl · 18/07/2026 20:14

I liked Jon, when I was 15. Never saw anything in Axl Rose, or Slash. You couldn’t see what Slash looked like anyway.

stepupp · 18/07/2026 20:08

What are you bothered about? Hydrangeas?

Well yes actually.
I love hydrangeas.
I met a woman last week who doesn't actually like hydrangeas and was shocked. What is not to like? I know my sister in law doesn't like them but I thought was just her being her.

Lentilcakes · 18/07/2026 20:15

Jon

WillThingsEverBeFergaliciousAgain · 18/07/2026 20:16

But JBJ looked so sexy in the video of Please Come Home For Christmas.

Thinking about that can piss you off twice as much.

Plus Cindy Crawford was in it looking fit too.

Does anyone know if she's on MN?

SqueakyFromme · 18/07/2026 20:17

JBJ and he was more respectful to fans

Fiftyandnotsonifty · 18/07/2026 20:18

Neither

Brightlittlecanary · 18/07/2026 20:18

Hmmm. Neither really, Jon was classically better looking, quite pretty, but didn’t do it for me, although love Bon Jovi and seeing them ar Wembley.

axel, less classically good looking but definitely sexy. Jon’s about as sexy as a heart attack.

OwlCalledSage · 18/07/2026 20:20

If neither is not an option, JBJ. Axl is positively ugly, imo.

basiically · 18/07/2026 20:20

WillThingsEverBeFergaliciousAgain · 18/07/2026 18:10

Back in the day i wouldnt have minded being the meat in that sandwich. Why choose? 🤣

Agree with this.

Blimey that’s harsh he’s clearly not ugly.

user00000000003 · 18/07/2026 20:21

JBJ

AquaWhichIsFrenchForWater · 18/07/2026 20:21

Both please. Based on looks alone.

Personality wise, JBJ would win. I actually met Axl once and he was absolutely lovely, but having watched documentaries and read biographies etc, he was an absolute prick in his prime.

Ooh . That's not very nice is it? Not very Christmas spirited.

I mean hes let himsrlf go
But he certainly wasent ugly as a young man.

user00000000003 · 18/07/2026 20:30

oooh actually Slash was far hotter than both of them when young. He was gorgeous
