Bono was sorta cute in the ‘Boy’ days. Floppy 80’s hair and that silly dance but the deal is he got fame and he got ugly. Actually he got ugly right when he started wearing the idiotic fly glasses. Though, I suppose were better off not having to see his eyes, any slight obstruction helps.
He seems to have an opinion on everything. For some reason people still care. I ask you, Joe Public, why? Why do you care what an out of touch rocker may think? I even question why I am writing this when the truth is I don’t even care. Most likely so I can furrow my brow and wonder WHY!
This bit is on Mick Jagger. Mick just turned 70 last week (props Bro) and well he looks it. Not as near dead as Keith Richards (who resembles a leather bean bag) but hes a liney limey. Bono still thinks he’s handsome.
‘Mick looks a bit like [Mikhail] Baryshnikov, like a ballet dancer from a different age,’ Bono told British newspaper The Mirror.
‘At the same time he still has a very beautiful face.
‘The wrinkles that run through it now have made it even more beautiful. Why? Because he wears those wrinkles well. I love his wrinkles.’ If thats not ass kissing bullcrap…
Bono goes on to discuss Mick’s business savvy
‘People despise Mick because they think he only thinks about money, but he is a businessman above all else,’ he explained.
‘The fact is, he understands the business. Why? Because the Stones lost a lot of money in the beginning. I have to kneel in reverence to what he has achieved.’
If you haven’t thrown up yet- here’s more:
‘What I like about him as a person is that he always speaks his mind openly and he never talks much about himself,’ Bono said. ‘He is not a narcissistic person.’
Perhaps Mr Bono Vox should give that anti narcissistic bit a spin and see how it feels.
