[Babyface82]

Nancy Pelosi Honored By Bono, Richard Gere For HIV/AIDS Work

I didn't even recognize Richard Gere there! Did he age like 20 years overnight? Mind you, I didn't expect him to look like he did in "An Office and a Gentleman", but Bono is certainly aging far more gracefully, IMO.

 

[GraceRyan]

I was thinking just how much older he looks from Chicago. When did that come out?

 

[tehRika]

^Chicago came out in 2002. Which was really just yesterday. (oh blimey... ten years ago. D: )

I didn't even recognize Richard Gere there! Did he age like 20 years overnight? Mind you, I didn't expect him to look like he did in "An Office and a Gentleman", but Bono is certainly aging far more gracefully, IMO.

I KNOW! It's not like Mr. Gere is ancient or anything (had to check IMDb, he's 63), but whoa. My dad is 64 and he certainly does not look that old. I'm betting when Bono hits 63, he'll still look pretty much the same as now.

 

[U2fan003]

Bruce Springsteen is 63 as well.

Thanks for the new photo. Bono is looking great

Well, Gere is 11 years older than Bono. I think Gere is gracefully aging, no nip and tuck as I can see. With that said I actually didn't recognize him by his face but his never changing hairstyle.

 

[corianderstem]

I was going to say - Gere has been "gracefully aging" for 20 years now. His hair's just finally tipped over from the "salt and pepper gray" to full on gray.

so Bono was in Dublin 2 days ago

 

[Galeongirl]

Now why does it not surprise me to see him sit with his arms around two chicks. Some things never change...


I wonder if he's going to Ukrain/Poland to see a EC match of Ireland.

Came across these pics several hours ago on Facebook. Apparently they where taken yesterday outside the Dylan Hotel in Dublin. http://hotelbrochuresireland.com/wp...humbs/dylan_hotel_dublin_ebrochure.jpg?&w=180

 

[Jeannieco]

awwh... wow. I hope the person taking the photos wasn't aware of the sad occassion.. Am I the only one that thinks this was very intrusive?

Oh well... I guess that's part of being a public person. Bono was close to her as well... so just saying..

 

[corianderstem]

I dunno ... it's not like they were of him coming out of the funeral. He was at a hotel.

I'm sure there will be pics of him before or after the funeral.

Obviously, it's a sad time, but the paparazzi isn't going to declare him "off limits" for a set amount of time after the death of a family member. I mean, assuming these were paparazzi snaps (which I'm guessing they are), they're not going to try and figure out if he's out and about on "funeral related business" before taking a picture. I doubt the thought to NOT take pictures won't even occur to them outside the funeral.

If we as a community feel that strongly about it, then don't post/share pictures.

(Not saying that's the case with this set.)

 

[GraceRyan]

Remember all the photos after Bob Hewson's funeral? I doubt the paparazzi have gotten more respectful.

Would I look them up if they had not been posted here? Probably. These are people we care about. We just want to share the moment. Hopefully they keep their distance and just passively capture the moment. And God, I hope we see NO fan photos. Now that is out of line. These news photographers are reporting news.

 

[corianderstem]

Yeah, I don't feel that strongly about them being posted (it's too bad they get taken, but what are you going to do? it's the way that world works).

I just meant that I didn't think that "Edge leaves a hotel a few days after his mom died" pictures are disrespectful.

 

[last unicorn]

I hope Bono could give his friend and brother some comfort in this difficult time. He was close to Edge's mom, too.

 

[hcbiggs2002]

Actually the friends FB page that I found the pictures on, made no mention that they were actually taken at Edge's Mum funeral! All that was said and I quote....

The Edge meets Bono at the Dylan hotel amid reports that his mother Gwenda Evans has died

 

[corianderstem]

No, sorry if you misunderstood. Nobody here thought they were taken at his funeral.

 

[AGirlLikeTheSea]

I'm afraid Daily Mail has already covered the funeral with pictures and comment section.
Even in articles about funerals there are people who never should have been allowed to comment expressing whatever they want.

 

[Acrobat Angel]

Bono and Aung San Suu Kyi have just wrapped up their press conference at the Oslo Forum.

 

[Galeongirl]

Nice to see those two together after so many years.

 

[Acrobat Angel]

Certainly is.

There are a few more photos on Getty, but Bono is on the right-hand side and covered by the watermark Hopefully someone can grab them without the wm.

 

[bonocomet]

Thanks. Here's one of the ones you posted without it.

 

[mama cass]

beautiful!

 

[last unicorn]

A great day for Bono

Is this in Oslo or already in Dublin?

 

[Acrobat Angel]

These are from Oslo. They are due to appear in Dublin in a few hours (about 4pm local time) according to what I've read.

 

[U217]

OMG, this is such a happy thing!

 

[happyfeet]

This is such a great thing for him, but could some one please keep him in Dublin as I'm growing impatient waiting for this "album" he keeps blabing on about, I know he does it all the time!! But this time is getting to me more than ever


& in this pictures does his hair look a different colour than it was at Mrs Edges funeral??

 

[last unicorn]

Media is reporting that Bono is escorting Suu Kyi from Oslo to Dublin in his private jet. The Electric Burma show is taking part this evening.

On a different note: I wonder when B and family will be starting their Eze season this summer
