Jon Bon Jovi is celebrating a major career milestone.
The legendary rock musician was honored as the MusiCares Person of the Year for his outstanding achievements in the music industry and philanthropic efforts on Friday night.
"I'm obviously humbled just to be here and most proud of our being here 40 years on . . . still about to release our 18th album," he shared. "We're very excited about that. The documentary, everything to celebrate this 40th."

Bon Jovi continued to say what he was looking forward to the most during the famed music event held at the Los Angeles Convention Center.
"To be able to see all these great artists who are going to be performing our songs tonight. My idols and my idols' idols will be sitting at my table. I mean, it's beyond words."
During the MusiCares event, the music icon performed with dear friend and fellow New Jersey native Bruce Springsteen to the song "Who Says You Can’t Go Home."
Springsteen made an appearance several days after his mother Adele’s death. Adele's cause of death has not been revealed, though Springsteen spoke out about her battle with Alzheimer's disease in July 2021 during his concert residency "Springsteen on Broadway."
Other performances include Van Halen’s former lead singer, Sammy Hagar, who did "You Give Love a Bad Name." Wolfgang Van Halen additionally performed "Have a Nice Day," to honor Bon Jovi.

Hagar shared with Fox News Digital on the MusiCares red carpet his favorite memory with the fellow rocker.
"We toured Europe together with Van Halen, and we did stadiums for all over Europe in ’95," he began to explain. "My favorite thing was that Jon was on the side of the stage every night . . . watching our show . . . and would give me a lot of vibes. . . ."

"This is a man that has written, what I consider, a really great classic ballad," Twain told Fox News Digital. "It's a song that would be a hit and a classic in any genre. . . . It's so exciting that me, as a very different kind of artist than he is, I'm singing this song."
"I hope I make him proud. I hope he appreciates my take on the song… He's a super hard worker. He has strong ethics. Everything I've ever heard about him from other people is he’s just very committed to what he does."
To conclude the night, Bon Jovi performed his classic hit "Livin’ On a Prayer" as it became an all-star finale. He was joined onstage by the other performers for a singalong.
