'Heaven looks a lot like New Jersey:' Jon Bon Jovi's living on more than a prayer as he laughs off death rumours on Twitter

Although rumors swirled today that he had met his untimely end, Jon Bon Jovi wants his fans to know that he's alive and very well.

The 49-year-old Livin' On A Prayer tweeted a humorous photograph today in response to Internet rumours suggesting he had died.

In the picture, Jon is standing in front of a Christmas tree wearing one of his standard black muscle T-shirts.

Indeed, Jon's sign is emblazoned with the date and a time stamp: December 19 at six in the evening.

If the sign isn't sufficient enough evidence, his rep also confirms to TMZ.com that he's still rocking.

One report claimed he went into cardiac arrest at the Empress Hotel in his his home state of New Jersey and died later in the evening.

The information did not come from a reliable source, however, but a random WordPress blog.

Jon can also be seen this holiday season in the romantic comedy New Year's Eve.

He plays a musician (go figure) named Jensen in Garry Marshall's follow-up to 2010's Valentine's Day. 

In the film, he must sort out his feelings for ex-girlfriend Laura (Katherine Heigl) before the ball drops in New York City's Times Square.

Despite its A-list cast members, who also include Robert DeNiro, Lea Michele, Ashton Kutcher and Michelle Pfeiffer, the movie failed to perform at the box office. 

It raked in only $13.7 million during its opening weekend despite its $56 million price tag.
