That, while attending an event addressing the ongoing fight against AIDS, Bono managed to squeeze in an opinion about the footie, and our dwindling (according to some, guffawable) chances of being allowed attend The World Cup: "Yes, I think so. Absolutely. I think it would be a really noble thing of FIFA to do. I think it's okay for FIFA to say 'Look things are changing, that game is an affront to FIFA's concept of fairness' and I think there's smart people in FIFA who will see that this is an opportunity. It's not a huge giant bureaucracy that can't be turned around. It can turn around and they should have video from now on and they should allow Ireland be at the cup"... Tell that to that Blatter individual... That Pete Doherty was hastily removed from a venue he was singing at in Germany, when he launched into "Deutschland, Deutschland über alles"... A source said: "He was immediately booed by the crowd and a live radio broadcast was cut. Doherty, 30, managed to perform five songs before festival organisers took him off the stage. Radio broadcaster Bayerischer Rundfunk said: 'To say it like the Brits do: We are not amused.' It is illegal for Germans to sing the Nazi-era lyrics - which were changed after World War Two"... That Nick Hogan was involved in a crash while on his way to a charity event entitled Keep It On The Track, which aims to "teach people to drive safely"... That John Graziano probably would've driven there more carefully, if he wasn't relegated to an existence on life support in a nursing home... That Michael Anthony Hall of Breakfast Club and Weird Science fame was arrested for assaulting his girlfriend Diana Falzone earlier this month... That he "bit is girlfriend's forehead" and "pushed, shoved and spit at" her during a fight in her apartment... That, of being ousted from I'm a Celebrity via a trial, Joe Bugner said: "I'm convinced it was a fix. In fact I know it. Do I think they wanted to keep Stuart because of his lovey-dovey friendship with Sabrina? Well, of course I do. It's obvious. It was rigged - absolutely!"... That, of interviewing Jordan on her show, Chelsea Handler said: "We had Katie Price on and I didn't know she was equivalent of our Kim Kardashian, Paris Hilton or that kind of person. She was incredibly stupid so that was very entertaining for me. I try to treat the people who deserve respect with respect. The ones that don't, really don't know any difference anyway"... That, of letting her 3-year-old child totter about town in heels, Katie Holmes said: "Like every little girl, she loves my high heels. They are actually ballroom dancing shoes for kids. I found them for her and she loves them"... Hopefully she'll also enjoy the foot and back problems she'll no doubt encounter in later life... That the 19th Annual Gotham Independent Film Awards opened last night in New York, and the likes of Brooke Shields, Patricia Clarkson, Alec Baldwin, Ryan Reynolds and Natalie Portman were in attendance... You can see the full gallery here... Alternatively, there's always girls playing American Football in their underwear in Caught Out...
