'It's human' says Bon Jovi on daughter's heroin overdose

Los Angeles, Nov 23,2012 (IANS):

Singer Jon Bon Jovi says he will get through the tragic heroin overdose of his daughter Stephanie Bongiovi and thanked fans for their warm wishes.

Stephanie was found unconscious in her hostel in New York and was hospitalised Nov 19. Bon Jovi, 50, says it was a shocking tragedy for him, reports contactmusic.com.

"It's human. What I do for a living seems glitzy and glamorous but if you don't take it too seriously it's a great way to make a living. And then life goes on. Things happen. This tragedy was something that I had to face too. So we'll get through it," Bon Jovi said.

"People's warm wishes for my family and I have been really reassuring," he said. "So, we're good." he added.
