Did he ever have his hair like that? I thought he generally had just kind of the longer hair? :-P

But you're probably right... I'm sure that he was a bigger deal back then!

Wardah, that's a possibility, but the song you're referring to is actually called "You Give Love a Bad Name". And according to a quick Google image search (for "Jon Bon Jovi 80's) he did have much longer hair back then.

The mystery continues!

Do you think it's possible that he's Billy Idol? The hair color doesn't really match.. but that's who he makes me think of.

I was watching The Nanny this weekend (yes, I LOVE that show) and there was an episode with Billy Ray Cyrus. And back then he had the most AWFUL mullet I have ever seen. Like, TRAGIC. (As did Roger Clinton in a guest appearance). Those were dark times...



Or maybe Lost Boys Kiefer Sutherland:

I can't find a better still shot, but it was this look from the video I found compelling:



A mullet ponytail, a necklace, and jeans.  Plus the troll has that whole breaking heart thing going on.

I asked an eBay seller that sold the full set a while back (and had the sales brochures) and was told it WAS Billy Ray Cyrus. :)
