Bono Brad Pitt Scientology Tom Cruise

LOOKS LIKE BRAD PITT IS SMARTER THAN TOM CRUISE

No surprise that Brad Pitt was once high on the list of “most wanted” recruits for Scientology. Back in the early 90’s he was dating Juliette Lewis, who was born into a Scientology family. Since all Scienos are expected to haul their loved ones into the cult, Juliette persuaded Brad to take a few courses. Brad, being the dutiful boyfriend, did dabble for awhile, but when he caught Juliette cheating and they split up, he quickly dropped out. Bono was also targeted by the cult. The socially responsible singer has a lot of influence on his fans around the world. Fortunately, he was turned off by auditing and drifted. David Miscavige’s niece Jenna who left the church, says celebrities are sought for their influence and ability to attract new members, not their money.

Bono Edun

BONO IS DETERMINED TO HELP AFRICAN NATIONS CREATE JOBS

It’s been an uphill battle for Bono and his wife Ali Hewson’s ethical clothing line Edun. Since 2005 the socially conscious couple have tried to establish clothing factories in Africa and train workers. They hope to guide African nations raise the cotton and manufacture the finished product. Establishing factories in Africa hasn’t been easy and the clothing line lost 7.8 million last year. (Better than 2011 when they lost 8.5 million.) Maybe there aren’t enough socially conscious consumers. Big names like Louis Vuitton (see ad above) and Diesel have lent their support to the struggling company. But Bono is not giving up – he’s still determined to industrialize Africa and create jobs.

Bono Colin Farrell Concert U-2

BONO’S EUPHORIC AND COLIN FARRELL HAS A NEW GIRL

Bono could barely contain his joy in the warm sun as he walked out of the Chateau Marmont hotel and headed for his sold out concert at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena on Sunday. Colin Farrell turned up with yet another pretty girl on his arm (just as we think he’s getting serious about someone, he moves on.) In fact, he changes girlfriends WAY more often than he changes his shoes! Despite the fact that hundreds of unhappy people found out they had counterfeit tickets for the U-2 concert (many were purchased on Craig’s List,) there were no riots.
