Bono Opens up About his Work in Africa 
Since the 70s, our favorite rockstar/activist Bono has campaigned for third-word debt, raised awareness about the AIDS epidemic and been a strong leader in the fight against poverty. Not to mention singing a few tunes in between. In an interview with NTV host, Smriti Vidyarthi, Bono explains;
“My work with Africa started in Dublin in the seventies with the anti-apartheid movement … And then in the eighties we got even more deeply involved when we made a record called, I Ain’t Gonna Play Sun City. And we were all campaigning — it was very ‘right on’. That’s where we got to meet my current boss, as I call him, Archbishop Tutu and Nelson Mandela, who really then re-entered my life with the call to debt forgiveness.”
Watch the full interview at Pan African Media Conference.
No Wonder he’s so Hot … Ahem, Healthy
Tom Brady and his sweetheart Gisele Bündchen have been spotted kissing and canoodling around Paris with their 4-month-old baby, Benjamin Brady.
But that’s not all!
Big Brady was caught doing yoga on his rooftop with his personal trainer according to People Magazine (with a sweaty picture to prove it).
Oh, how zen of him. No wonder he has a peaceful grace about him, or maybe that was his abs talking, either way, go Tom!
So flustered. Now off to yoga…
Out of the Gutter: Bombshell McGee
Ms. Michelle “Bombshell” McGee — today is your lucky day. You get a break. Despite every other reason we shouldn’t like you, we are THRILLED that you are NOT a Nazi. That would have been the straw that broke the camel’s back. Of course we still judge you, but not in that “evil” kinda way, just in that “mean gossipy” way. TMZ got their mischievous hands on a document where McGee states:
I do NOT have a swastika tattoo on me.
I do NOT show my children how to ‘Nazi salute.’
The child block magnets spelling ‘white power’ was NOT of my doing. Friends of Shane’s did this and gave the picture to Shane upon HIS requested (sic) so he could use it against me in court.
I do NOT do any pornography in my house.
I do NOT do any webcam ‘sessions’ from my home with my children present.
Phew. I was worried there for a minute. Still, bring her home to mom at your own risk.
Cute Couple of the Day
Anna Paquin and Stephan Moyer, who meet on the set of True Blood, were spotted in Disneyland with their adorable daughter, Lilac, Perez Hilton claims. This couple has been in the news recently for other reasons. Just last week Paquin revealed to the world that she is in fact bisexual. Who isn’t nowadays? Seriously.
The Oscar-winning actress didn’t reveal her secret the old fashion way (in a dirty photo lip-locked with a drunk gal at a Hollywood night club.) Instead, on Apr. 1 Paquin came out in a PSA for “We Give a Damn,” a charity focused on raising awareness for various causes.
Even though Paquin admitted that she fancies women, it seems as though she still has a healthy marriage and a loving and playful family.
True Blood, True love. Besides, who doesn’t love Disneyland?
