So we´ve been to the cinema a few times this week and one of the adverts is for some car or other called the Edge or summink. Where Bono wanders into a record shop and the employees there are all excited “Is it really him”, then “Bono” leaves in his fancyish car. (Video below. Obviously)…

Sita and I had a heated debate about whether it was really Bono or not. First off the bloke looks just like Bono, BUT, he´s driving a pretty crappy car, there´s no U2 music in the ad and I don´t think Bono needs the cash from a cinema-only ad in Latin America and lastly I remembered some story or other on Weekend America or This American Life about a Bono Lookylikey taking advantage… And since I have my own corner of the interweb and Sita has nowt I can reveal to you that NO ES BONO. (As I type sita is saying “I can´t believe you´re blogging this…”, that´ll learn her for not even getting on FaceBook).

The evidence? Megafan.com.mx´s exposé and link to the impersonator´s site where in his list of gigs he mentions “11.22.06 Ford Motor Corp, Mexico City, Mexico”. Ta da!

It speaks fairly ill of Ocean´s 13 that I´m writing about the advert before it rather than the film itself…
