Bon Jovi & Gwen Stefani are taking legal action against the owners of a U.S. bar over accusations they played the stars' music without authorisation.

Bon Jovi and Stefani want bosses at Sally's Saloon and Eatery in Minneapolis, Minnesota to quit using their tracks to entertain patrons - following allegations they don't have the proper music licence, according to a lawsuit filed in the state last month.

The stars are seeking unspecified damages from the venue and news of the lawsuit comes in the same week it emerged country sensation Taylor Swift is suing the owners of a bar in Idaho after they allegedly played her songs without paying royalties.
