RICHIE SAMBORA - LOCKLEARS LOVE SCENES LEAVE SAMBORA FUMING
Rocker RICHIE SAMBORA has such an intense dislike for seeing his wife HEATHER LOCKLEAR get passionate with other men onscreen, he always storms out of the room.
The couple, who have been married for 10 years, often sit together to view Locklear's acting work, but Sambora refuses to watch when she's having an intimate moment with a co-star.
The actress says, "We got together at the height of MELROSE (PLACE), so he was definitely going, 'Why are you doing this?' I said, 'I've been doing this, you just didn't notice...'
"So he leaves the room (during a passionate scene). He really doesn't like it."

ALL FOR PAUL: LES PAUL 90TH BIRTHDAY SALUTE
Continue reading...Appreciation for Paul
Bon Jovi guitarist Richie Sambora, formerly of Woodbridge, shared similar sentiments June 9 upon arriving at the New York Marriott Marquis to honor Paul as part of the Songwriters Hall of Fame ceremony.
"He's the reason why we're all here tonight," Sambora told the Press. "Basically, he invented the electric guitar and multitrack recording, so he's the reason we all have a job."
Sambora jammed with the event's house band on a rendition of the Bo Diddley tune "Before You Accuse Me" before Paul graced the stage to accept his award. Paul charmed the audience with quips about Viagra and his pacemaker, and he even cracked a joke after almost taking a fall.
Prior to playing a short blues instrumental with Sambora and the band, Paul talked about today's concert at Carnegie Hall and alluded to appearances by surprise guests.
"I'm just hoping that they will be there," Paul said. "I have my fingers crossed that they're going to show. But the 19th should be a winner."
A lot more Les
The celebration of Paul's 90th birthday doesn't end with today's concert. Throughout the next year, a dozen special-edition Gibson Les Paul guitars will be issued marking the milestone.
On Aug. 30, Capitol/EMI will release "Les Paul & Friends: American Made World Played," Paul's first new album since 1978. Sambora appears on the disc, and so do Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, Keith Richards, Buddy Guy and Joe Perry, among other stars.

LOCKLEAR SEMISTALKED SAMBORA
Former MELROSE PLACE star HEATHER LOCKLEAR was so determined to land a date
with her rocker husband RICHIE SAMBORA, she "semistalked" him until they got
together.
The sexy actress, who has been married to the BON JOVI star for 10 years,
admits she worked hard at securing a date with him after admiring him from
afar.
She says, "I semi-stalked (Richie), but I married him in the end, so it's
okay!
"I told my girlfriend to set me up with him. Somehow I heard he would like
me, could like me, who's knows... He never really called back, but finally when
I was in New York he called and he was like, 'Oh hey, I hear you like me!' And
I'm like,
'No, that's not really the way it goes!' "So then my girlfriend said, 'Go out
with him, but don't go to his room.' We tried to get together and it ended up I
went to his room and she called me to see where I was and she goes, 'I can't
believe
you're in his room!'"
And Locklear, who says lots of "making out" occurred on the night,
continues to be impressed with her husband.
She adds, "He's perfectly big! He's sweet, he's funny, but he does what I
want. I think after 10 years he has given up. He's like, 'Whatever makes you
happy.'"18/06/2005 03:33

Movie review: 'The Perfect Man'
Continue reading...Then there's Mrs. Richie Sambora. Not sure which Tinseltown genius thought to cast Locklear as a desperate housewife, but putting aside her good looks, which poor Heather can't be blamed for, she does a pretty good job rising above the B-list material, shedding her Heatherness and playing middle class.

Perfect fit?

"It's real vacation for me. I get to stay in great hotels and catch the shows in the evenings.

Plans are being discussed for Duff, 17, and Madden, 26, to "come out" as a couple as co-presenters at the MTV Video Music Awards in Miami on Aug. 28, one month before she turns 18.

Top 10: Rock Duos
Number 8Continue reading...Jon Bon Jovi and Richie Sambora
Bon Jovi
If the energetic '80s rock power ballads hadn't cut it, the New Jersey quartet probably could have sailed to the top of the charts thanks to the static in their hair alone. Luckily for the band, singer Jon Bon Jovi's admiration for Elton John and guitarist Richie Sambora's crafty songwriting and vocal talents gave the band an edge most other "hair metal" bands lacked.
After topping the US charts with Slippery When Wet in 1986, the duo continued to exert its melodic -- and capillary -- dominance in the '90s with highly acclaimed albums These Days and Bounce.
Hit singles: "Livin' On a Prayer," "Bad Medicine" and "Always."
The best rock, hard rock and heavy metal duos to have ever walked the Earth...
