christ, for someone who advocates giving charity quite so loudly, did bono really need to go the expense of taking his old stylist to court over £3,400's worths of hat, metal hooped earings, a green sweatshirt and a pair of black trousers?

would his money not be better used on say, the make poverty history campaign?

it all seems a bit hypocritical to me

Just because he workds for a good cause doesn't mean he has to spend all his money on it.

It's whimsical, yes, but in proportion to the amount of money he must have in the bank it's probably as buying a good dress or something. Or do you give all your money to charity once you have covered the very basics?
