Conservative Activist Fails to Notice Bono Impersonator Is Not Bono - $tevie - 03-22-2012

Jason Mattera, a conservative activist known for ambushing liberal celebrities and politicians — by pretending to be a fan in search of a picture, and then firing off confrontational questions at close range — was forced to retract a video interview with Bono he unveiled with some fanfare this week, when it emerged that the man he mistook for the lead singer of U2 recently was, in fact, a Bono impersonator.

"An Elvis interview scheduled for release later this week was also scuttled."

awesome:

Mr. Mattera: Hey, by dodging taxes on royalties, are you raiding the poverty programs you purport to champion?

Mr. Sfera: No.

Mr. Mattera: No? Don’t you want governments to be generous with other people’s money and not yours?

Mr. Sfera: I don’t have control of that.

Mr. Mattera: But you moved your shop from Ireland to Holland… to get a better –

Mr. Sfera: I didn’t.

Mr. Mattera: You didn’t? Your company did it.

Mr. Sfera: I didn’t do it…. I don’t have control over that….

Mr. Mattera: How do you not have control over that? It’s your company.

Mr. Sfera: It’s not my company.

Mr. Mattera: You’re not in charge of your own company?

Mr. Sfera: It’s not my company.

Mr. Mattera: You have no say in what U2 does?

Mr. Sfera: Not particularly.

Mr. Mattera: You don’t? You don’t have a say in what U2 does?

Mr. Sfera: No.

He looked more like George Michael than he did Bono.
