Jon Bon Jovi would like to let you know that rumors of his death have been greatly exaggerated. As we reported earlier today, despite being the latest subject of social media RIP-hoaxing, the classic rocker is very much alive and still “Livin’ on a Prayer,” not going out in a “Blaze of Glory.”

In fact, as the stats prove, he’s still “Wanted, Dead or Alive.”

Responding to the rumor, Bon Jovi took to Facebook, where he uploaded pictorial proof of his continued existence, a photo which was liked by over 50,000 people in an hour, shared by 27,000, and commented on by 9,000.

He must be going for Lil Wayne’s record? Looks like his fans don’t need to be reminded to “Keep the Faith.” In the photo he smiles confidently in front of a Christmas tree, as if to say “It’s My Life” and it’s a good one.

He’s in full comeback mode, rocketing to the top of Spotify and reminding 13 million viewers on YouTube that he will “Always” be there for us.
