They Give Love a Bad Name, Part 19:
Here's a story that takes the cake–or not. Wanting to surprise her rocker beau Richie Sambora, alleged actress Denise Richards called Bon Jovi frontman Jon Bon Jovi to ask if she could present Richie with a birthday cake onstage during the band's upcoming July 10 show in Hollywood, Florida.
Sources tell In Touch the sugary sweet gesture got gonged. "Jon suggested it might be too much of a spectacle," says an insider. Seems plausible. You wouldn't want to turn a rock show into a spectacle.
In Jon's defense – I'm thinking this is the right move.
Its likely few Bon Jovi fans in Florida would be amused at another self-promotion by Denise Richards and would add nothing to the concert.
