The rocker and New Year's Eve actor, 49, showed off his impressive physique, doffing his top in the sand and surf during a family Christmas vacation in St. Barth's on Sunday.

Pennsylvania musician Jeffrey Goho said he started a fake Twitter account in mid-December and reported that the "Wanted Dead or Alive" singer had passed away on a tour stop in his native NJ.

"I just kind of took the liberty and started (the rumor), because I was so irritated," Goho admitted. "All I heard was 'Bon Jovi this,' 'Bon Jovi's starting a restaurant'... It was like, 'Jeez, (Bon Jovi) was a household name due to the music, not the business."
