Bono and ScarJo Are Off to See The Wizard

Here's Bono with my girl crush ScarJo at a concert in NYC last night to benefit RED, Bono's Africa charity. I'm not quite sure how The Scarecrow from the Wizard of Oz figures into the equation, maybe there was a theme? Anyway, it's from a place of love that I say to Bono, 'dude, please button up your shirt, you are too old for that Rico Suave shit.' In fact, no age is the right age to bust out that cheese. Please.

That said, did you catch Bono and Matt Damon's cameo on Entourage this past Sunday night? Brilliant.

Bono Jovi


Here's Bill Clinton and Bono Jovi at something called the "Can Do Awards" in NYC.

It's weird seeing your childhood and teenaged crushes get older before your eyes. I wanted nothing more than to be Mrs. Bon Jovi when I was in grade six. Faced with the knowledge this wasn't going to happen, I instead married my fellow classmate Patrick Fey in a schoolyard ceremony. It didn't last the year. This would not be the last wrong trip down the aisle I would take. That schoolyard shit is a fuck of a lot easier to undo though. Trust.

As for Mr. Hewson, all I can say is bitch better BRING IT when U2 plays the Rogers Centre in Toronto in September because I was brutally raped by Ticketbastard for my ticket. I have a wicked seat but that shit did not come cheap.

Speaking of concerts and coming. If there are spelling mistakes up in here, blame the Followill brother cousins because I am still reeling from the sex bomb that was last night's Kings of Leon show...



Amazing show. From the beginning riffs of Crawl to Caleb's wildcat screams in Charmer until the final notes of Black Thumbnail, the boys were relentless. By the time they got to Knocked Up in the encore, I'm pretty sure I was. And you know what? I'm going papa don't preach on this shit and keepin' mah baby.

If you live in Vancouver, Edmonton or my old stomping grounds of Calgary, KOL is headed your way this summer. Tickets go on sale this week! Go Nike on this one and JUST DO IT.

The Fly Has Left Zoo Station But It's Not the End of the World


Here's Bono on the beach in St. Barts.

Le sigh.

There was a time when I would have been dancing barefoot in broken glass for the chance to ride his wild horses.  And don't get me wrong, I'd still let him hold me, thrill me kiss me, kill me. My everlasting love for him dates back almost 18 years (fuck I'm old) and when you've invested that much time, you don't just walk on when love comes to town. But now my spanish eyes would probably have to be staring at the sun the whole time. It's not that time has been so cruel to Mr. Hewson, it's just that he just looks like your average, every day white guy dad on the beach. Which is cool, I mean the dude turns 49 on May 10th (sadly I knew that without looking it up) but I miss The Fly, I miss Macphisto, I miss Mirror Ball Man, they were even better than the real thing. 

Time to get into the DeLorean, fire the flux capacitor up to 88 and head back to 1991. Click below for the video for one of my favourite tracks from one of my favourite albums. Also one of my favourite of Bono's many looks.

Daily Male: Paul Hewson




U2's new album, No Line on the Horizon hits stores today! I'm a broke ass bitch right now but I will purchase this. It's already been leaked online but I haven't yet checked it out. I really do not like the first single, Get On Your Boots and I'm afraid it's an indication of the rest of the album. I'm also afraid if I don't like it, my friend Tara will either go Travis on me and rip off my face or be the Montecore to my Roy and tear open my jugular.

Anyway, in honour of the album's release, Bono is today's Daily Male.



Below are some of favourite Bono looks of days gone by;

Maybe He's Born With It? Maybe It's Maybelline.



I'm gonna tap into my inner Christian Bale and ask 'What the fuck is with this fucking eye makeup on fucking Bono?' If this is what's been under those sunglasses all these years, he best put those bitches right back the fuck on!

Listen, Paul, darling. You and I go back like what, 18 years? My love for you runs deep. You're the longest relationship I've ever had with a man. I've stood by you through thick and thin, through Zooropa and Pop, I defended your ass. I even looked the other way when pictures surfaced last year of you and two teenaged skanks cavorting in France. No, I don't like your new song but we can get past that because I do love you, I really do. So it's from a place of love that I say this; WASH THAT SHIT OFF YOUR EYES CAUSE YOU'RE TOO FUCKING OLD FOR THIS SHIT!

Tara, Robyn, I want an explanation for this and I want it right fucking now!
