good for him 

I think he deserves it after Live 8.

[AdZ]

Bono, you're no Ghandi.

[ARC]

He's not even fucking English. What a joke the knighthood has become...

[mdttkk]

is it just me or is that song with u2 and greenday - the saints are coming REALLY ANNOYING.  i mean i can't stand that song, its almost as bad as something from gwen stefani or anything else on those crappy music channels!

[BangoSkank]

how the fuck do people still make fun of bono, read the rolling stone interview with him and try say he has a "holier-than-thou" attitude (as some say).

he's the man, he cares, he's doing something and people shit on him, just read those comments underneath the article, people are fucking idiots.  if we must make fun of a celebrity, please lets pick missy elliot or some fucker on cribs who has 4 ferraris and never drives them, let bono be.  He's actually incrediblly humble, listen to the guy talk in interviews and he never talks himself up or any of the shit he gets accused for.

Q - What's the difference between God & Bono?

A - God doesn't walk around Ireland pretending to be Bono!


Knighthood my arse!  Bono is a self righteous twat.

[SOLGER]

U2 BLOWS....hard....   and Bono..hmm well..pffffffffffffhahahahahah 

[axl_rose_700]

Self righteous, self publicising arse

[gandra]

Bono is stupid jerk for me

he haven't atitude,he haven't real vieew of world problems and problems of litlle country,he have cnn and tony bler atitude

well in one interview he said "well,when we had a show ingreece,i didn't want to travelling cross serbia,because there killed muslims in bosnia and wanted theirteritory",after read this i almost died from laugfing and how he was stupid

as historyknow :serbs live in bosnia since 1200,muslims in bosnia are serba with muslims religion,before 1992 in sarajevo lived 45% serbs..."

but my point isn't to teach you history or to make discusion about civil war in bosnia,only i want to say is he make points for him with popular words and words of cnn...

every fuckin man in this fuckin world are the same

i want to say what axl said about iron maiden 1988

i want to say bono isn't smart man and he deserve it,because he belong there but i wanna say "blue blood don't excist,and the most stupiest thing in 21 centrury is a kingdom"

[Gunner80]

I think you mean Elton John   

I think bono deserves it just as much as Bob Geldof - whatever that means

I am really surprised to see all the disdain for this happening.

I have to wonder if all of the people posting in this thread have any idea of the amount of time and energy this man spends helping others.

He isn't being knighted because of the music he made with U2 although being in his position as a celebrity has made it easier for him to get his point across to the masses.  A point, in my opinion that needs to be made.

[Grouse]

I'm no fan of bono, but why all the hating?

You've got to acknowledge that the man has done alot.....

anyone wanna tell me what they've done to fight world hunger and poverty??

[BlowUpYourVideo]

I like how under that article, someone says that it's a "fucking disgrace", then calls Bob Geldof a "foul-mouthed git".

There are people all around the world that dedicate their lives to helping people in need.  How many Unicef / Oxfam etc etc workers have you seen get a knighthood.  That's what I have problem with.
