I can't disagree with them when they complain that "actors should stick to acting " or better yet "why is their opinion worth more than the average person's?" Yet it seems that Mr. Bono is revered as a humanitarian and political influence on the worl stage. Somehow that small shallow man has elevated himself to a position of respect. It appears that rock stars garner more cred than mere actors. Just be thankful that Madonna is only interested in shameless self promotion.
