Five things you should know about Michael Bolton
1. His metal band Blackjack (!) once toured with Ozzy Osbourne. Aaah!
2. His famous mane (now shorn, sob!) once rippled with the power of 1,000 Tritons.
3. Yes, he was engaged to the blonde Desperate Housewife, but did you know he also recorded a song with her that probably contributed to their love’s demise?
4. He made small appearances in Dune and, more to the point, Snow Dogs.
5. His rendition of “When A Man Loves A Woman” has the power to make capillaries burst and testicles shrink. That’s some adult contemporary soul power!
