Arise Bono but please don't call me Sir . . .
Friday March 30 2007
ROCK star Bono accepted an honorary knighthood from Britain's Queen Elizabeth yesterday with one condition - "don't call me Sir". He was awarded the honour during a brief ceremony at British ambassador David Reddaway's official residence in Dublin.

Fellow band members The Edge and Adam Clayton joined the lead singer's wife Ali (pictured) and their four children - Jordan, Eve, Eli and John - or the reception. Like Bob Geldof, he is technically not entitled to be called "Sir" as he is not a British citizen.
