Even though Meg Ryan and John Cougar Mellencamp have been dating for over two years, that isn’t stopping them from showing some public affection while on vacation in Rome. Although I kind of wish it would. I don’t know why but for some reason this coupling is so strange to me. I mean a rocker and an actress is not that odd of a pairing, but theirs is. Oh well if they are happy that is all that matters, right?
John Cougar Mellencamp (Sorry he will always have that name to me) was on The Late Show yesterday and he had an obvious black eye. So David Letterman had to ask the singer about it. So Mellencamp told him a little ditty about his son and him getting into a fight; and how 18 year old Speck got a punch in and he didn’t. Boys will be boys!
But Mellencamp wasn’t on the CBS late night show to talk about his black eye, he was there to talk about Ghost Brothers of Darkland County that he did with the great Stephen King. The two men, who say they are like brothers, told the story about how John buying a haunted house brought the two of them together. Of course something being haunted would garner King’s interest. And since King was told John’s house’s story 13 years ago, the two have been great friends. And you can see it in the way they were interacting with each other.
I have been a fan of both of their work since I was a kid, and for some reason I never realized until now just how cool they really are. Don’t you just want to go for a beer in a dive bar and play darts with them as you shoot the sh!t?

Meg Ryan was seen out and about listening to her iPhone and I am wondering if she is listening to her boyfriend John Cougar Mellencamp? You know like his song Hurts So Good and Wild Night to remind her of their time together. Plus when are they going to buy a Pink House together in a Small Town? Hopefully before the walls come Crumbing Down!
A little ditty, ’bout John & Elaine –
Two American stars living’ in the heart land.
Johnny is a rock’n’roll star
Elaine’s a model in the back seat of Johnny’s car.
Oh yeah, life goes on
Long after the thrill of living is gone, sayin’
Oh yeah, life goes on
Long after the thrill of living is gone
They walk on…
Or as his rep put it in a statement released to The Hollywood Reporter, “John and Elaine Mellencamp are proud of their 20 years together and are very happy with their accomplishments both as parents and as a family. They will continue to raise their two children in Indiana but have decided to call it a day as a couple.” The two married in 1992 and have two sons Hud, 16 and Speck, 15.
John Mellencamp’s son wants him to quit smoking so much so that he started a Facebook group to get him to do it. Speck Mellencamp, 14, made a deal with his dad that he if got 1,000,000 people to join the group that his dad would quit smoking. John suffered a heart attack 15 years ago and quitting smoking would really prolong his life. Heck even if he didn’t have a heart attack quitting smoking will greatly extend his life.
I have seen John Mellencamp in concert a few times and he is one of the best performers out there, so I am being completely selfish and I want him to quit smoking just so I can see him a few times more.
As a former smoker, I know quitting isn’t easy but it is the best thing I ever did. So please become a fan of Speck’s group 1,000,000 to join, my dad john mellencamp will quit smoking and let’s get John Mellencamp to stop lighting up!
