‘What up, Ultra?!’ This rock legend just popped up on stage in Miami. Watch the video
Now, here’s a collaboration we didn’t realize we needed in our lives.
Ultra fans went wild Sunday night when Armin van Buuren all of a sudden brought up a rock icon to join him for his pyrotechnic-filled performance.
“I remember being a little kid and buying this guy’s album,” the Dutch DJ told the screaming audience. “Ultra, make some noise for this legend: Mr. Jon Bon Jovi!”
The “Livin on a Prayer” singer then casually rolled up in jeans, T shirt, a trucker cap and shades, a huge grin on his baby face (yes, still).
“What up, Ultra!!!!” the 62 year old yelled, and soon began jumping to the thumping beat of Van Buuren’s remix of his 1992 classic “Keep The Faith.”
“This track is different from anything I’ve ever released before,” the 47-year-old trance god said in a statement.
On his Instagram, Van Buuren share a few clips with the stanning caption: “Can’t actually believe this happened! I’ll forever remember this moment!”
At least Bon Jovi didn’t have to travel far for this awesome cameo; the married father of four has a home in Palm Beach and is often spotted around the area.
Want to see even more of this senior stud? To celebrate the New Jersey band’s 40th anniversary, Bon Jovi and the guys will release a documentary “Thank You, Goodnight” on Hulu next month.
“As thrilling as the story of a once-in-a-lifetime talent is, it is even more rare that a legend like Jon Bon Jovi lets the world into his most vulnerable moments while he’s still living them,” reads the streaming service’s description. “Forty years of personal videos, unreleased early demos, original lyrics and never-before-seen photos that chronicle the journey from Jersey Shore clubs to the biggest stages on the planet. The series relives the triumphs and setbacks, greatest hits, biggest disappointments and most public moments of friction.”
Also, a new Bon Jovi album, “Forever,” drops in June, their first in four years. As for seeing the group reunite in person in the future? We may have to wait a bit. The frontman is still recovering from reconstructive surgery on his vocal cords, Jon recently told Boston’s Mix 104.1 radio station.
