Bono for President of France

Bono for President of France

U2’s Bono met with French president Nicolas Sarkozy on Tuesday at the Elysee Palace in Paris, France.

Bono met with the leader to discuss Africa development issues and aid improvement. The two met earlier at the G8 summit in June 2007.

President Sarkozy has been making his own waves with his personal life with a possible engagement to model Carla Bruni. When is the U.S. going to have a supermodel First Lady?

That would be interesting to see a supermodel as the First Lady. Very controversial.

# 6

justjaredlurker, I know. Already there are some people in France angry about the possibility

Well that happens in life. Can’t stop aging.

sounds fair, for tax dodger

Whoa, Bono’s not looking too good these days…

Why is Bono wearing platform shoes?

wow, bono’s aging!
while i remember carla bruni from her modeling days, she was hardly a supermodel.. more of a well know high-end model. i think supermodel means everyone knows who she is or you at least get the big high end campaigns, like noami campell or kate moss.
bono should stick to rocking.. that’s what he’s best at. and i don’t want a lecture on the worlds tragic state when i go to see a show, i just need the music, kthx.

He looks suddenly older, but he’s doing tons of great stuff for the world, so I don’t care how he looks!

Oh great, now he thinks he’s Gandhi!

what’s up with bono’s munster shoes?? lol.. they’re silly!

common sense wtf @ 01/10/2008 at 12:03 am

What is he wearing?

Is U2 still touring?”

Bono sure is aging, but then again he is heading towards 50. Fair go! I hardly recognised him too - not used to him in a suit. I commend him for his charity work and for bringing people’s awareness to situations.

it’s Bono! but he needs new cool clothes

#13 - You seem to know who is Carla Bruni anyway… She’s French, she’s not supposed to be known all around the world but she is indeed. She’s one of the rare celebrities to be known around the world with Catherine Deneuve and Gerard Depardieu.

#5 - It’s actually very controversial in France but we do like we don’t care of who she is. But we do care.

carla bruni is not french! she is italian!!! but she lives in france,she is a singer now,her songs are slow and boring…
love U2′music and bono…he is so determined about certain causes ,i like that a lot

Ina, She’s an Italian born French… She’s been living there since infancy…

Second, obviously her songs aren’t boring, especially her first album’s. You don’t understand French but they are poetry on music, very beautiful, very playful, very sensual. She’s very talented.

Hi, I’m french, and it’s not a possibilitie that Carla Bruni is with Sarko, it’s right, i said that they are going to get married !!!

:S

Sarko is so stupid, he think that he is a star !!!!

I wish the US to get a new first Lady/man and a new president with…a brain!! And I wish the same to France, Sarkozy is a pity now with this stupid, gold digger Carla Bruni….Someone helps us please !!!

remember da truth @ 01/10/2008 at 7:40 am

Have they been dating a long time? Before everyone is angry that a politician is marrying a former model turned singer, did anyone stop to think that maybe they atually, um, LIKE each other?

Is he only allowed to marry a dowdy woman who will stand slightly behind and next to him and stare up at him with a frozen, adoring smile?

In America, people have a fit if a woman has a career in public service, and can’t imagine a woman as president. I guess in other countries, they can’t imagine the president having a beautiful wife who has a career of her own!
