Jon Bon Jovi Threatens to Stop Acting The rock legend may stop doing movies any time now...	By Elena Gorgan, Entertainment News Editor 23rd of August 2006, 14:29 GMT Adjust text size:

The 44-year-old sexy rock superstar is sick and tired of the protocol in Hollywood that forces such talented actors as he is to stand in line for a mere audition and not even get the part after such excruciating labor from his part. On a more serious note, the man who brought Bon Jovi and commercial rock in the spotlight said that Hollywood is 'rotten' and vouches that, if things do not change, he will stop acting. Until now, the rocker took time off from his musical career to appear in a series of second-rated movies and television shows, among which the most critically acclaimed were 'The West Wing' and 'Pucked'. The rest of his acting career is so insignificant that it's not even worth mentioning. So, probably as an excuse for his frustrations, Jon refuses to admit that it's him the one with a problem and blames it all on Hollywood. He recently said: 'It's a pretty rotten existence to be in. It is a lot better for me being the director, producer and star when you make a record than it is to go and stand in that long line and wait for your audition'. Well, if it's that good, why didn't he stick to singing to start with?
