Photos of Jon Bon Jovi romping with 4 naked girls in bed

The bodacious pics of the band cavorting with topless women on a bed are from a 1985 photoshoot that was deemed way too risqué for the public. So, the sexy snapshots never saw the light of day

A set of steamy photos Bon Jovi took in 1985 with topless women in bed have surfaced in a book by the band’s former tour manager. Rich Bozzett, the author of Sex, Drugs and Bon Jovi, says the pictures were meant to be publicity shots but were deemed too racy.

He held onto the negatives until it was time to write his book. A rep for Bon Jovi tells the New York Post, "This is an outtake of a photo shoot. Everyone should be so lucky at 22 years old… Rich is remembered as a nice enough guy who was eventually in over his head as the band’s success grew.”

They were taken by famed photographer Ross Marino in 1985 when Jon was just 22, busy promoting second album 7800°Fahrenheit.

It wasn't until the release of Bon Jovi's third album, Slippery When Wet that the band shot to superstardom.

Rich Bozzett said he had great memories of travelling the world with the unknown band during their rise to fame - and particularly of Jon Bon Jovi.

'He treated me very well, I felt he was a nice person, and very genuine.'

He said he remembers the photoshoot well - and that Bon Jovi enjoyed it.

'Back at that time, you're a young man, you're going to enjoy something like that,' he said.

But he said that the shoot was a set-up, with Bon Jovi already dating the woman who would become his wife, his teenage sweetheart, Dorothea Hurley, the mother of his four children.

'We were trying to toughen up the image,' he explained, saying the huge record sales of bands like Motley Crue inspired the idea.

In his book Bozzett, who now works on house renovations, also talked about the alleged drug use of members of the band.

But the 52-year-old, who said at times he felt like the 'sixth member' of the band, said Bon Jovi were nothing like their more edgy contemporaries.

'I'm thankful that I worked for him [Jon], he was basically squeaky clean.'

Bozzett was eventually dropped from the band and claims he was denied his share of profits by their then-manager.

But he said his book was not motivated by malice - he just felt the time was right to tell his story.

'I would tell people stories and people would just be fascinated,' he explained. 'They couldn't hear enough of it.'
