on his fave fans how he won over his wife, and why he thinks he's like Tom Cruise.

* There aren't too many singers who have rocked their way through two decades without so much as a hint of scandal--but Jon Bon Jovi has somehow managed to pull it off. Maybe that's because this Jersey boy isn't your typical hotel-room-trashing badass. (Hint: He's been happily married to his high school sweetheart for 12 years.)

While on his yearlong Crush concert tour, he's been keeping his acting career afloat filming the upcoming movie Vampires: Los Muertos between gigs. Here, the luscious bandleader reveals how he scored his best friend's girl and what it feels like to still be on top after all these years.

* What are your fans like?

Our hard-core fans are still there, but we also have a whole new breed of giddy, screaming young girls who've just discovered us. They make touring a lot of fun.

* What is Bon Jovi's survival secret?

Having outside interests. Richie makes solo records, Chico has his art, and I have my movie career.
