I like some U2 songs -- really like "One".
Bono's not a dream guy for me or anything, but I think it's cool when people put their time and money towards causes that they're passionate about. Celebrities often have more of both than most and if they wanna use that, along with their fame, to attract more exposure for something that they believe in, good for them.
When celebrities hawk products for profit, on the other hand, I think they sometimes come across as kinda dickish. Though, gotta admit, those Jimmy Johnson commercials for Extenze are fine comedic entertainment. They come on really late at night and I've seen a few after news shows over the years -- (unintentionally) funny stuff.
This mock of Jimmy and his product hawking made me laugh in some parts.
