Dave Navarro Detailed Biography -
Born June 7, 1967 to James Raul 'Mike' Navarro and Constance Colleen Hopkins. His paternal grandfather was an illegal Mexican immigrant; his mother Constance was a model and worked on _Let's Make a Deal (1963)_ . After his parents divorced when he was seven, Dave moved with his mother to Bel Air, and lived with her until she was murdered in March 1983 by her boyfriend. Her murderer was eventually caught thanks to the help of "America's Most Wanted". While at a skating park, Dave heard a Jimmy Hendrix song, and decided to become a professional guitar player. After stints in both "Jane's Addiction" and "Red Hot Chilli Peppers" (during his time with the latter group Dave caused a sensation when he smooched bandmate Flea on the cover of "Guitar" magazine) and turning down offers to join "Guns N Roses", he started his own band, "Spread", and released a solo album, "Trust No One". As of 2001, he is engaged to actress Carmen Electra.
