I don't consider it "bubblegum". Just becuase something gets widespread AOR (album oriented rock) radio play doesn't make it "sell out" in my book. I too give huge props to Johnson, and BinB was as much statement as it was hit record. Not many bands have survived the death of a "critical" member. And ACDC came back in spades.
That being said, there is a certain snarl and somewhat disturbing vibe to Bon's voice that cannot be replaced. As said above, I wouldn't trust anyone's daughter with him. Brian Johnson would probably just sleep with her...Bon would likely do other things...
