Jon Bon Jovi is expected to host a fundraiser for Obama Friday.

TRENTON, N.J. - Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama will be in New Jersey on Friday for a fundraiser at the home of one of New Jersey's biggest celebrities.

But the event at Jon Bon Jovi's Jersey Shore home is just one of two fundraisers being held for Obama on Friday. The other is at the home of Democratic National Committee Chairman Philip Murphy.

Tickets for the Murphy event will be $2,300 a person. The price jumps to $30,800 per person for the event at Bon Jovi's home.

The money from both events is slated to go a joint fundraising committee run by the Democratic National Committee and the Obama campaign.

Bon Jovi has a history of supporting Democratic politicians.
