Bono

Vanity Fair Goes RED

The July issue of Vanity Fair magazine is hitting the racks soon, and I can’t wait to get my copy (or copies…). There are 20 different cover pictures for this issue which is devoted to topics related to Africa. Bono was the guest co-editor for the issue, which is remarkable as this is the first time in Vanity Fair’s history that a guest editor has been allowed to participate in the publication of an issue.

There was a nice piece on Nightline last night with Bono, and Vanity Fair’s editor, Graydon Carter. You can read the article here, and there is a video of the segment on the same page.

There is a great post on the Joinred.com blog with all of the details about the special issue, and some other hot RED news as well.

You can order single issues of the magazine with the cover/s you want from amazon.com. They are only 4.50 each, and there are some really great photos of some wonderful folks. There is a good one of Bono, a good one of Clooney, and two nice ones with Barack Obama!

And, of course, some percentage of the proceeds from the sales of the magazine, poster, and subscriptions will go to the Global Fund to fight Malaria, HIV/AIDS, and Tuberculosis in Africa.
