Lead singer of U2. Some people would elaborate on this statement with a "Bono is an arrogant self righteous, big headed, smug arse- and he proves this by helping out third world countries..."
Hm...somehow that statement seems to be contradicting itself a little. Bono is a little lime light hogging at times sure, but he's a performer- obviously he'd be a pretty crap show man if he hated the attention.
Think about it- He is Bono- if he wanted ego gratification then he could just put on a spontaneous U2 concert and see how many people showed up and yelled themselves hoarse for him and the band. He does charity work because he actually cares about it- if he gets a heckalot of publicity for it than hm...I dont know...it might have something to do with him also being the front man of a huge rock band. Besides the publicity helps the charity. I'm sure the people whos lives have been saved due to Bonos work dont really care about his motives anyhow.
To people who have made a statement similar to "I hate Bono because of his ego boosting charity work." I pose the question- Have you done better?

Rarely plays the guitar, but when he does, it looks like he plays it better than any other guitar heroes.
Hey, child, if you want to know what's the opposite meaning of moderate, just check out how Bono acts with his green guitar.

A Bland irish Musician in the band U2, who helps third world countries, yet also stars in apple ads, to help just make that trade margin between the rich countries and the poor countries just that little bit larger, but dispite that little minor hypocrisy there, bono has daft looking glasses,is incredibly pietistical and writes not necessarly talentless music, but has the keen ability to write the same song, over and over again, and Just for anyone goes "your stupid bono isn't self rightous....", and i quote from the golden oldy of a rocker, "I don't know why, but we always had this belief that there was something sacred about our music, that it was almost holy.".
Bono's amazing lyric writting skills " Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah... Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!"

Self important dickhead whose sunglasses are probably worth more than 50 African villages, claims he cares about the impoverished in Africa, like Mr. Geldof, who wouldn't even get his shitty hair cut for charity.

A poor man whose motivation, means and deeds of contributing to humanitarianism is always taken by some people as incorrect or impure. Luckily, there are still many people love him and he has a great band to be with to act as GOD.
-Bono is a crap!
-Well, that crap did something for sure.
We love love and we love Bono!
Bono is a very good humanitarian from the rock'n'roll stage.
When lots of rockers phi-drugs/abused sex, Bono phi-anthropy.
