Fantastic! :cute: What a great moment, congrats :applaud:
 
according to the email I got about the RED Campaign from Bobby Shriver this past week... and to keep tabs on the B man...

ARMANI (PRODUCT) RED

Our partner Mr. Giorgio Armani presents the One Night Only event on Thursday 21st September at Earl's Court in London, which he is theming "an INSPI(RED) evening of fashion and music," using our (RED) word. The show features the Emporio Armani Spring Summer 2007 women's fashion show and the launch of the Emporio Armani (PRODUCT) RED capsule collection. We have some of the items this collection at the (RED) office, and they're fabulous. Many of Mr. Armani's friends from the worlds of film, music and sport will attend, including Bono, Beyoncé, Leonardo DiCaprio, Alicia Keys, Clive Owen, Ashley Judd (who has worked with Bono and Bobby in the past), Samuel L. Jackson, Andrea Bocelli, James Franco, Andriy Shevchenko and more. The event will be broadcast on the UK's Channel 4 and syndicated worldwide.

I went too but obviously too late:(

I got stuck in traffic where it was umper to bumper due to an accident I was too far to get off and proceed through the streets:mad:

Oh well Thank you for posting the pics:hyper::up:

of what I obviously missed:madspit:

i missed out too bonofox. i didn't even know. do what i'm doing; trying to forget about it... other than the fact that i'm really happy for Lila and Maddy :D
 
I missed the news on Channel 9 at 10:00PM. Hubby taped some news from the NBC broadcast around 4:30PM, so maybe NBC will show it again on the 11:00pm, or maybe the other channels will, I don't know.

Sorry to hear about the traffic problem dream chaser. That's part of why I moved out of Los Angeles :happy: And "Farmer's Market" is my old 'hood, so I had to go. Unfortunately I didn't get time to stop at Canters for some take-out and bakery items, or Andre's for spaghetti & salad... I couldn't even function afterwards :lol: I hope the kind woman I met at the event emails me her pics (Tamara, PLEASE!!!)

:hug:

BTW, some distant friend of a friend of a friend's friend... said... that she believe Bono may have been at a friend's party in Lake Sherwood on Saturday night. This person was at a party next door and could hear the party going on and swore she heard Bono - don't know if the others were in town or not, or if he was visiting a friend or whatever. So if you girls hear anything (or if I do, I'll let you know)

So he's moving thru the crowd on his way out...

from Maddy (I'm typing it):

We try to get ahead of the crowd so we might have a chance to see him or get a picture or something. And my Mom said 'one more for Maddy'. And so he turned around and puts his arm around me and my Mom is trying to take the picture, and her zoom is on too high so she's trying to adjust and backing up. She finally takes the picture, and I say 'see you in Hawaii'. He says 'you're going to Hawaii?', and I say 'yeah'. And he said 'go girl' and 'aloha'. And we thanked him!

And so (Lila speaking now) me and the other girls we met try to remain standing and not pass out. So for all of you out there, herrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrre's Bono & Maddy! :happy:

:lmao:

he does have a kind of deer in the headlights look going on in that picture


as for Lila and Maddy - every kind of cool :rockon:
 
I saw a little tiny bit on the CBS2 News, but not any of the other news channels, at least not yet :grumpy:

ETA: Channel 13 just showed a clip. Not on NBC (4) tonite, and not on Channel 7 as far as I can tell (ABC)

This is a lovely picture of a beautiful moment for one very special young lady.


I'm glad that I posted about this possibility for you, Lila, Maddy and all the other PLEBAns that were able to see Bono and Ali today in LA.


Remember: we get to carry each other. :yes:
 
thanks again everyONE!

You know, I stare at that picture, and realize he's staring into my camera - my direction, me (in a sense). It's all too surreal. I'm just really happy, and I get to share it with all of you! :hug:


I have no access to wireimage, but I believe kelly posted some of the pics that appear here in the Chicago thread. Here's what I found - all small, but you can still enjoy :up:

She looks familiar. Maybe a PA or someone that works with him for ONE or DATA?

Congrats, Lila and Maddy!

Maddy, that pic is adorable! That's a great pic of you even if Bono wasn't in it :cute:

I think that´s Catríona, B´s PA.
 
Wow Lila - what a weekend for you and Maddy! Thanks for sharing everything!! :up: :happy: :bow:
