JON BON JOVI's daughter has been hospitalized and is facing drug charges after allegedly overdosing on heroin.

Police were called to the dorm room of Stephanie Bongiovi, 19, a student a Hamilton College in Clinton, N.Y., after getting a report that a young woman had overdosed and was unresponsive. Police said later that they found heroin, marijuana and drug paraphernalia in her room.

Stephanie is the eldest of Bon Jovi's four kids with wife Dorothea Hurley.

Arrested with Stephanie, of Red Bank, N.J., was Ian S. Grant, 21, also of Red Bank and a Hamilton student. He was charged and released. Both he and Stephanie face a court hearing.

"The college is cooperating with the police investigation. Our first concern is always for the safety of our students. Out of respect for the privacy of our students and in accordance with federal regulations, we do not discuss individual health or disciplinary matters," read a statement released by Hamilton College.

Tatum's officially sexy

Hey, ladies! It's the most wonderful time of the year: People magazine has deemed Channing Tatum the official Sexiest Man Alive, unseating Rydal's own Bradley Cooper.

Lady Tattle is 100 percent behind this choice, having seen every movie Tatum has appeared in this year - including "Haywire," "The Vow," "21 Jump Street" and "Magic Mike" - and his bare backside in two of them (that would be "The Vow" and "Magic Mike" for those counting).

Lady Tattle asked Tatum about his perfecto butt when "Magic Mike" hit theaters. "I'm not a very modest person anyway. I grew up in Florida, and in Florida you're always running around naked or you're in a swim suit, which is basically underwear," Tatum told us. "You just kinda get used to being nude."

We liked that answer. A lot.

But what does Tatum think of his official title? "My first thought was, 'Y'all are messing with me,' " Tatum told People. "I told [wife Jenna Dewan-Tatum, whom he married in 2009] after we'd been in the bathtub washing our dogs because they'd gotten skunked. She was like, 'What?' "

Tatum also told People that he's pumped to start a family with Dewan-Tatum, whom he met on the set of "Step Up," and who was recently killed off in this season of "American Horror Story." He's thinking three kids, but there could be more.

"It's really easy for us guys to say, 'I want like 15 kids,' " said Tatum, 32. "Jenna will be like, 'Well, you better get another wife!' "
