Pitbull brings out iconic NJ artist at Jones Beach show

New Jersey is home to some of the most famous celebrities that some even have a rest stop named after them.

When you first think of celebrities from New Jersey, you automatically think of Bruce Springsteen, Whitney Houston, Frank Sinatra, and Kevin Smith just to name a few. But did you know these famous people are also from New Jersey?

Zach Braff

Meryl Streep

The Jonas Brothers

Derek Jeter

Jack Nicholson

Queen Latifah

Andrew McCarthy

Kelly Ripa

And so many more.

And it’s very exciting when one of these celebs is either visiting home or actually still lives here.

One of the biggest surprises Jerseyans got was at the Pitbull concert that took place at the Jones Beach Theater on Sept. 12.

It was announced that T-Pain would accompany Pitbull but what the audience didn’t expect was a big, and random, special guest.

Pitbull is known for his high-energy songs and live performances and he definitely had the crowd on their feet when he covered “It’s My Life” by Bon Jovi. But of course, that’s not good enough.

Bon Jovi surprised the crowd and sang with Pitbull on stage.

I’m a big Bon Jovi fan so I loved seeing this.

Pitbull thanks Bon Jovi on his Instagram page and also said “get ready for our new collab coming soon”.

This is very exciting and I can’t wait to hear what they put together.
