here's a joke about Bono:

What's the difference between Bono and God?

Answer: God doesn't walk down the street thinking he's Bono

I'm reminded of this joke because of the news story of Bono calling Chris Martin (of Coldplay) a w*nker on Radio 1 - that's a bit like Britney Spears calling Christina Aquilera slutty.... pot meet kettle etc... or more like "this town ain't big enough for the both of us (w*nkers)"

Apparently U2 played an "impromptu" gig on the roof of broadcasting house to promote their new album. They used to say "pop will eat itself" but now U2 is eating itself - i.e. they did a very similar thing years ago when it did actual cause quite a stir. Now like so many artists/personalities in the public eye, they've resorted to glibly parodying themselves due to a lack of original ideas...
