  1. Bono Bonds With Michelle Obama & Kids For Lunch

    <span style=&quot;font-size: small;">He&rsquo;s Irish, he&rsquo;s a rock star, and he&rsquo;s committed to ending poverty, so it&rsquo;s not surprising U2 singer Bono was able to coax First Lady Michelle Obama and daughters Sasha and Malia to join him and his wife, Ali, for lunch while President Barack Obama was busy at this week&rsquo;s G8 Summit in Ireland. The frontman and first family, along with about 60 other guests, broke bread at Finnegan&rsquo;s of Dalkey pub in his native Dublin. Asked what the conversation with the First Lady consisted of, Bono said, &ldquo;We talked about everything and nothing. It was a family lunch.&rdquo;</span>
