POP/ROCK - Nov. 6, 1992

Party in Parliament: In this rather nutty political year, anything seems possible. So it should not be surprising to learn that pop singer Jon Bon Jovi was partying with British politicians at the House of Commons in London on Thursday to celebrate the fifth anniversary of MTV Europe, the London-based satellite version of America’s MTV cable network. Under the shadow of Big Ben, MTV Europe brought together government ministers, members of Parliament and music industry officials to mark the event. Why an MTV party in Parliament? “We always like to try something different,” said an MTV spokeswoman. Word is that no politician sang, and Bon Jovi did not make a political speech.
