The rocker recalled a time when his band, Bon Jovi, found themselves staying in the same hotel as the late King of Pop during a trip to Japan. They invited Jackson to join them in their room for a get-together, but instead of the pop star, Bubbles showed up as his representative.
During an appearance on ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!’, Jon described the surreal experience of being in Jackson’s hotel room, which was decked out in mirrors for dancing.

The story sheds light on the eccentricities of the late Michael Jackson and the unique encounters that can happen when two music icons cross paths. Despite not meeting Jackson himself, Jon Bon Jovi and his bandmates will always have the wild memory of partying with Bubbles to look back on.
