Los Angeles: Bon Jovi gave Tom Cruise tips on playing the role of a rock star after the Hollywood star sought his help for upcoming movie Rock of Ages.
The 49-year-old rock star said that he gave some advice to Cruise, who is portraying the role of tattooed musician Stacee Jaxx in the movie version of the musical, reported Extra online.
“He and I actually went out and he was very intense about ‘how do you do this?’
“I said Relax man, you’re Tom Cruise, you can learn how to sing a song, don’t worry about it.’ Knowing Tom Cruise from afar, everything that he does, he does to 11,” Jovi said.
The Jon Bon Jovi front runner said that he was “curious” to see the results of Cruise taking on his band’s hit ‘Wanted Dead or Alive’ but isn’t worried how the actor carricatures his own onstage persona.
“I’m pleased, I’m curious. I don’t think that he’s gonna be worried about duplicating my things – it’ll be an amalgam of stuff. In the meantime, I think it’s pretty neat,” Jovi added. (PTI)
