The rocker who spread rumours of Jon Bon Jovi's death has now become the target of angry fans after he confessed to his actions. <img alt="" src="/imagedata/2011/dec/Bon.jpg" border="5" /> Jeffrey Goho from Pennsylvania, US, has admitted to penning a fake press release stating the 'You Give Love a Bad Name' singer had died after falling into a coma in a New Jersey hotel on 19 December, and posting it online. Bon Jovi's representatives were quick to dismiss the hoax but not before the news reached worried fans. "I'm in a band as well, and I was going into the recording studio, and we had talked about how the music industry just started taking a turn into crazy new worlds that no one, really, can assess," Contactmusic quoted Goho as telling Asbury Park Press. "Long story short, I was talking to my band members on their down time, and we got so worked up in the conversation, I just kind of took the liberty and started (the rumour), because I was so irritated," he said. However, now he admits his post has had serious consequences. "I'm not proud of it. I'm getting a lot of backlash from it, but as stupid as it sounds, that's how it started. I just had a blurb and went with it," he said. He has urged angry rock fans to stop sending 'hate mail' to his bandmates in Philadelphia-area group Minutia as "they are in no way involved".
