Sure that movie was terrible but what about Vampires: Los Muertos?

Yes I'm aware. My point is that labelling it as "sold" is misleading, especially for a band like Bon Jovi who had most of their sales when real sales were actually a thing. In my opinion, mixing the actual sold and the streaming data make the numbers completely non-sensical in their case.

By the way Taylor has sold over 40 million physical albums and 114 combined. She is very transparent about the physical and combined aspects of it, as I believe all artist should be, rather than mixing and matching the data to suit.

I get what you mean and I totally agree, but I can also see the difficulties from a market communication perspective.

This brought back a lot of memories--maybe not good ones, but definitely memories.

I genuinely don't know if Jon is a terrible actor or if he's struggled with bad material. He's never seemed particularly natural on camera.

Didn't realise that's how it worked but that makes a lot of sense. Was reading a list of biggest selling artists recently and could not believe some of those who were around the Bon Jovi mark.

I think it's mainly the former tbh, but coupled with the latter for some of his movies.

Jon is an awful actor. I just watched 1883 the spin off from Yellowstone which had country singer Tim McGraw and his wife Faith Hill play two or the main characters. The show itslef was a little slow, but they were both fantastic, Tim in particular. As a musician turning their hand at acting it put Jon to shame!
