- SlamShut, on 10/11/2007, -12/+625At a U2 concert in Glasgow, Bono asked the audience for some quiet.
Then he started to slowly clap his hands. The audience gradually joined in, the silence punctuated only by thousands of steady, rhythmically clapping hands. Then he called for quiet again.
Holding the audience in total silence, he said into the microphone "Every time I clap my hands, a child in Africa dies."
A lone voice from near the front pierced the silence: "Well, stop ***** clapping then!" - tmjoen, on 10/11/2007, -15/+276Must be a mixup. He was probably slated for the 'Tools' icon.
- lharboe, on 05/01/2009, -12/+228The microphone is pointing the other way in the artist icon.
- kevinmotel, on 10/11/2007, -14/+152im in ur iphonez, aidin' ur 3rd world countreez
- ScrumFritter, on 10/11/2007, -18/+131This BARELY looks like him. It could literally be one of hundreds of artists that stand in that position - in front of a microphone. Buried as inaccurate.
P.S. Bono is a *****. - mb309, on 12/31/2008, -4/+89Whats the difference between God and Bono?
God doesnt think he's Bono.. - JoeBaynham, on 10/11/2007, -21/+104Ugh I'm sick of bono! He's everywhere nowadays and now he's on our iPhones?!?!?!
- Rousterfar, on 10/11/2007, -6/+86If that story is true... I would have killed to have been there.
- rebelyell2k5, on 10/11/2007, -0/+57that, the U2 ipod, and the countless iPod commercials featuring U2.
- epyon180, on 10/11/2007, -2/+54I love how you used product(RED) as an example and not the U2 iPod which is the obvious choice.
- skyshard, on 10/11/2007, -3/+50http://www.snopes.com/music/artists/bono.asp
- MarkCiccone, on 10/11/2007, -7/+51Anyone else think this is a huge stretch? The microphones are facing opposite directions, the singers are at different angles...
- Uranium118, on 10/11/2007, -5/+44Bono exists ?
- nmckinlay, on 10/11/2007, -8/+45***** brilliant.
- disoriented, on 10/11/2007, -18/+55Wow they really are grabbing at anything about the iphone to make a story out of it.
***** buried - Wailord, on 10/11/2007, -6/+42Huh. Well, the iPod went with Product(RED), so I guess they have some sort of relationship.
- virtualball, on 10/11/2007, -7/+42Sorry, Double post...
Digg down - cobrabyte, on 10/11/2007, -1/+32It looks a little less phallic when changed. Especially since they went with a silhouette.
- alvinhokid, on 10/11/2007, -0/+28can you be a nice guy and a pompous jerk at the same time?!
- mossblaser, on 10/11/2007, -8/+34To be honest i am more sick of the iPhone than Bono
- Easty, on 10/11/2007, -6/+30Yeah! No one else has ever used a microphone!
- rebelyell2k5, on 10/11/2007, -1/+22dude, it was just an observation. chill.
- Crazymaniacc, on 10/11/2007, -5/+23Who? Who cares?
- masterc, on 10/11/2007, -1/+19Where else would you have puked? Your leg?
- ray42, on 10/11/2007, -2/+19Bono can't do anything when he's frozen in carbonite like that.
- grafenberg, on 10/11/2007, -0/+15hell yeah, big front page news! icon looks like bono! woohoo!
- marlonmunsen, on 10/11/2007, -2/+15zing! nice one.
- goodcompany, on 10/11/2007, -3/+14This icon also seriously looks like Homer J.

- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -2/+12you sucked off Bono?! What?!
- detrate, on 10/11/2007, -2/+11This is news?
- kidjay, on 10/11/2007, -2/+11i noticed it the day i got mine, but really i have to wonder
who ***** gives a *****? - MauiMac, on 10/11/2007, -0/+9What *****'d up browser are you using?...
- JoyrexJ9, on 10/11/2007, -2/+10jesus, digg is really going down the pan if this sort of dross is hitting the front page...
- gmprunner, on 10/11/2007, -5/+13I don't have anything against Bono, and he is a nice guy, but I do have to admit that he does seem to be all over the place.
Though that "Artist" icon is rather generic and would look like any of the millions of singers in the world if they just stood in that position too. - Sidedish, on 10/11/2007, -11/+18Bono? Ew.
- Ramble, on 10/11/2007, -0/+6Because no-one listens to Green Day either?
- rodrigo74, on 10/11/2007, -0/+5No *****
- Psht, on 10/11/2007, -4/+9It sort of looks like Big Bird to me...
- Kazrog, on 10/11/2007, -2/+6At least it's not Sonny Bono.
- louiemantia, on 10/11/2007, -0/+4oh, right... http://dznr.org/v4wb
made an outline... just in case you cant see the similarities, the hairline, the collar, nose and mouth are almost in the exact same position... - championchap, on 10/11/2007, -2/+5Haha, so it's not just me then? Buried as lame.
- stupidStan, on 10/11/2007, -3/+6LAME!
- colto, on 10/11/2007, -1/+4Bono is actually in my family tree(relatively closely too), but I still don't care to meet him.
- lharboe, on 05/01/2009, -1/+4If everyone thinks that Bono is the Artist icon, I think that I'm the contacts icon. http://tinyload.com/3054.png
- LordofChaosIori, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3"God I'm suck of Bono" is the funniest thing I've heard all day. You've made my day.
- Firehed, on 10/11/2007, -3/+5Oh come on. Like Bono is the only musical artist in history that's stood in front of a microphone? Buried as inaccurate.
- skealoha86, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2let's see what happens with that icon when Universal Music Group decides to make U2 exclusive to another music marketplace.
who then?? i vote Gwen Stefani. - brycelb, on 10/11/2007, -3/+5No this is not news, like everything else on digg lately. I can see the similarity though. Wait, hang on, my eyes were closed. This should be buried for it's insanity
- Ireland, on 10/11/2007, -6/+8He was making a point you *****. Grow up the lot of you. ***** I HATE pop culture.
