How Many Years Ago Was It That Jon Bon Jovi Was Addicted to Drugs And/or Alcohol?

Question by : How many years ago was it that Jon Bon Jovi was addicted to drugs and/or alcohol?
I say it was 20 years ago, my friend insists it was before the “Bon Jovi” heyday. I saw him some years back in a television interview blaming his record producer for getting him hooked on drugs. Also, why does the media bury this story but demonize the EXTRAORDINARY talents like the great Whitney Houston; Diana Ross, Steven Tyler, Liza Minelli for their drug or alcohol problems. Every time they are caught with drugs or alcohol, it is front page news in all the tabloids. The media tore into Michael Jackson for his prescription drug addictions, and even for lesser celebrities like Art Garfunkel or Bon Jovi’s own bandmate Richie Sambora, their drug use and personal problems are common knowledge. Why is the media so bent on portraying Jon Bon Jovi as a squeeky clean, reputable person?
