hes so strange....
when i become a rockstar and meet him I'll ask him why he does it for all of you:wink:
I noticed he does it a lot when somebody else is wearing his shades.
Maybe his fingers are a replacement, keeps the image up:laugh:

:applaud: I love that picture!
 
U2granny, is the picture you just posted from the "In America" premiere? That girl was on "Late Nite With Conan O'Brien," and he asked her what it was like meeting Bono. I think she said something like, "Oh, he was cool." *G* It was so cute!

BTW, this is a fantastic thread. I've wondered why he always does that... also, has anyone else ever wondered why he seems to prefer wearing long-sleeved shirts? Or, while singing, he tends to roll up one of his sleeves? Quirky stuff! LOL.

WTF is the deal with him doing that....is it some kind of signal to Ali, is he saying he forgot his glasses, or is he really just that goofy??? I dont understand. I do have to admit he looks good doing it.

adorable pic! from the U2-7 sessions I presume...? I think he's just being goofy and "substituting" for his glasses, silly Bono. :cute: and of course he looks good doing it, he ALWAYS looks good! :wink:

Ultimate proof that I spend way too much time here: A few days ago I was with my friend Cody and I noticed that his sleeves were hanging over his hands, so I squealed "Eeee! Bono sleeves!" and he looked at me oddly, so I explained "Bono always wears his sleeves too long and IT'S SO ADORABLE!!" and so he pulled his sleeves up in defiance :p

Nothing wrong with that...I was out with this guy, and we walked past a sunglasses shop that had Bonoworthy glasses on the stand out the front...I squealed "Bono glasses!!!" and ran off for a closer look. The guy followed and said, "they don't look too different to the ones you've got on now..."

Bono's tendency to do this. I love the wonder and the playfulness he emanates......it's the key to staying young! Or at least young at :heart:


i guess he's just used to wearing glasses too much :lmao:

when i changed my glasses into concact lenses i was often finding myself doing this move with my hand to correct the glasses on my nose and when i had my palm already lifted to the nose i was thinking "what the hell RU doing, kid?!"

anyway- i can't find any explenation for Bono doing this thing when he has his glasses on (maybe he sometimes forgets about having them on just like i was forgetting about having mine off?)
