U2's Bono & Britney Spears Create Art For African AIDS Charity Event


(11/22/02, 6 p.m. ET) -- Britney Spears and U2's Bono recently created handmade pieces of art in Dublin, Ireland for an AIDS charity event.

The pop princess used a tube of glue and some glitter to make a beach scene on Wednesday (November 20); while U2's frontman drew a mermaid, perhaps having the video for the band's current single, "Electrical Storm" on his mind.

Celebrities from film, music, and TV were asked to create art based on the theme of seaside memories, all auctioned off to benefit Icross, an organization that works to provide home care for AIDS orphans in east Africa.

More than 400 people attended the gala, including Phil Collins, boxing legend Muhammad Ali, director Roman Polanski, show biz couple Sarah Jessica Parker and Matthew Broderick, and actresses Cate Blanchett and Angelica Houston, according to the Irish Examiner newspaper.

British Prime Minister Tony Blair was of several politicians who signed a seashell for the event.
