ABC News Studios has announced an upcoming one-hour special, “Michael Strahan x Jon Bon Jovi: Halfway There,” airing on Sunday, April 28, at 10 p.m. EDT on ABC. The special will be available for streaming the next day on Hulu.
The program features an exclusive sit-down interview between “Good Morning America” co-anchor Michael Strahan and legendary rock icon Jon Bon Jovi. In a candid conversation, Bon Jovi reflects on his journey to the top of the music industry, the challenges he faced, and his recent vocal cord injury that almost ended his career. He also discusses the band’s separation from long-time guitarist Richie Sambora.
The special includes intimate anecdotes from Bon Jovi’s upbringing in New Jersey, which inspired many of his iconic songs. He expresses gratitude for the support of his parents, his wife of 35 years, and his fans.
Additionally, the program offers a behind-the-scenes look at the SXSW premiere of the band’s new Hulu documentary, “Thank You, Goodnight: The Bon Jovi Story.” This four-part documentary celebrates the band’s upcoming 40th anniversary and provides a glimpse into what the future holds for them.
