2 Uniting For 1
Filed under: Music Minute > Inspiration > Bono > Juanes
When celebrities do good!
It's nice to see stars using their fame and money for good.
One such artist is Latinolicous Juanes.
Juanes is joining fellow rocker/humanitarian Bono and several other artists in Japan to help take a stand against world poverty.
He is taking part in two concerts while visiting overseas to support the "One For All Demonstration" which is tied to the Tokyo International Conference on African Development (TICAD).
He'll be playing concerts in Tokyo and Osaka.
Earlier today, the concert took place under rain and winds while Juanes joined Bono and other musicians on stage.
The goal is to remind the government about keeping its promise to help people living in poverty.
And it looks like the Japanese have become Juanes fans, as his his single Me Enamora is a Top-5 hit on the radio there. He's singing in Spanish!




JUANES

Juanes looks greasy. If he was walking on the street i wouldn't take a second look. YUK.
What's with the unibrow — YUK>
Juanes is HOT and his music is really good.
btw the shirt that they are both wearing is the symbol for man in Chinese/Japanese
r u kidding me? Bono is an icon!
Bono is really pretentious and has a God complex.
A few years ago he complained about the Irish goverment not giving enough aide to African countries yet he has off island accounts and avoids paying tax through loopholes.
Juanes is amazing!!! His music is awesome!!!
Juanes is SO HOT! and does not look greasy at all! and bono is just amazing. i dont think he needs to shave it looks good that way.

Bono is the biggest douche EVER
LOVES ME SOME BONO!
Hey. John Mayer is in China right now helping promote Coach purses and accessories. Why isn't he doing something like this instead? Oh, yeah, it doesn't pay…..
I bet Bono took flew his private jet there. What a hypocrite!
Juanes, I love you. Please grow your long hair back. Por favor!
Great, U2 is poo for the ears and Juanes is as a singer as Granny Lohan. That's a great duo !
Duelingcouches.com is better
Juanes is such an amazing person… I love what he stands for!! He is using his fame for good like you said… And Bono he is also awesome… Perez I love that you talk about our latino artists!!
I don't believe in fund-raisers like this. I've seen the actual amounts that go to the cause and its very little. Bono especially rubs me wrong- a rockstar who's trying to deal with world hunger…I'm all for the cause, I just don't believe he's going to be the one to do it.
DAMN Juanes is so fine!
Juanes is amazing!
loveeeeeeee juanes!
Juanes es el mejor! Viva Medallo! Viva Colombia!
nothing like affiliating with anti-poverty's poster child. it's one thing to do great work, but it's another to make sure a photographer is there for every waking second.
kudos to celebs who aren't out for personal gain.
They should be doing a concert to help the hundreds of thousands of people in Burma…dumb fucks.
BONO BONO BONO. LOVE BONO, he brings awareness to causes and his voice rocks my world! At least he tries!
OMFG. PEREZ YOU TAINT EVERY CELEBRITY OUT THERE WITH YOUR BILE WORDS. JUANES IS TRUELY GOOD PERSON WITH A GOOD MESSAGE AND H HEART SO DO US ALL A FAVOR AND LEAVE HIM OUT OF YOU STUPID B.S. SITE
Bono has been involved in all these idiotic liberal causes for decades and none of the problems he's tried to fix have improved even slightly. He's raised many millions to fight hunger and it hasn't put even the smallest dent in world hunger. The solution is democracy and teaching countries to be self sufficient not a stupid handout.
of course he's in the top 5!! Juanes is an international superstar!!!
They went nuts for Salsa dancing/ music a while back too- I'm sure they didn't undertand a damn thing of that either… good for Juanes, I met him a few years ago and he was a total sweetheart, not to mention HOT.
omfg
i love juanes!
me and my friends were all just talking about how much we lovve him!
hey bitches,
what have any of you done to help poverty. both of these guys could have turned and said forget helping out.
Give cash, keep royalties.
You phony bastard!
isn't that darius danesh??!!
I love them both! I met Bono during the War and Unforgettable Fire tours and he was really cool. As was The Edge, Adam and Larry.
Juanes is the BEST. Viva Colombia por siempre!!!
Man that Juanes is one hell of a hot damn sexy man…
and I appriciate his work with Bono
Me encanta la musica de Juanes! A Dios le pido!!!
Paul Hewitt can pick me up like a 6 pack!!!
HOLA– THEY ARE SAYING, DOS EYEBALLS ARE BUENO FOR YOU TOMORROW. IT'S INNA SECRET CODE. DOS SUPA STARAS FORA YOU. THATS COOL MANG. ALL GOODA!!! XOXOXOXOX
Where does Bono get his glasses?!?!??!!?!?!
This is what celebrities should be doing instead of drugs!
Japanese are more open-minded justa as latin people and many europeans that can listen to music with lyrics in another language than their own….sorry but Americans would neeeeeeever do that they just "appreaciate " musica in their own language….Music is music and if it can be good in any language….AMERICANS LEARN TO APPRECIATE ALL KINDS OF MUSIC AND GO SEE A FOREIGN MOVIE READ THE CAPTIONS! U DO NOT KNOW WHAT ARE U MISSING!
yay juanes!! lo mejor!
Seriously I LOVE tHis Colombianito el me enamora
EXELENTE!!! I'M COLOMBIAN SO THIS IS REALLY BEATIFUL 4 ME!!! I LOVE JUANES AND LOOK HIM WHIT BONO BUUFFF!!!! THEY PROOF THAT THE ROCK IS MORE THAT DRUGS AND SEX I LOVE THEM!!!,,AND I LOVE U PERECITOOOO!!!
VIVA LATINOAMERIKA KARAJO!!!
Is that a Lambda on Juanes shirt?
Bono is a fake-he hides his estate in a tax shelter & demands that his working-class fans give to his charities, he's phony & just wants pics with powerful figures yet he sided with that crap about African "aid" that was a total fraud, where the rich nations 'forgave' the debts on African nations, like an Enron accountant they faked their help & still screwed over poor nations-much like the bankers & their SIV/mortgage crap. It's like breaking a man's legs & then demanding he run a marathon because he seems to be having trouble walking. That's what they do, late payment: 800% interest hike, on everything too, car home credit cards-that Bankruptcy Act is a godsend to trustslugs………………
juanes = baby daddy!
he is truly amazing & is soo the latin bono. its about time these 2 talents joined forces!
If all these phoney celebrity assholes only gave one half of their money, they would still have enough to live like kings. But instead, their asking other people for their money. It´s a sick world…
Bono is the biggest lying douche ever. Just like Travolta who wants the common man to bike to work to help the environment while he flies one of his many private planes around for shits and grins. Douchebag fake ass celebutards who want all the glory while Joe Average does all the dirty work.
Bono is a fake. You will never be a true revolutionary. Get over yourself.
I just saw Sex and the City at the 12:01 am showing… It was phenomenal!!! So funny, and sad, and wonderful… I'm not going to spoil it for you guys but there were no microphones in the movie Perez just hot purses and hot guys and remember that guy samantha was watching, her neighbor in LA they show us full frontal on him and let me tell you he was well endowed…
Juanes ROCK, totally! Love Love their music! Whhhoooo!
Perez,
Keep the focus of your blog on Anglo-Saxon America, no one is interested in your fellow Cubans really.
Nothing against cubans or latinos though, just keep your content consistent ya' silly man.
I LOVE JUANES!
Who doesn't good ol Bono put his money where his mouth is and starting donating his millions to charity? And if he has even given any, then chances are, it's not a quarter of what he's got. Celebs make me sick. They whore out themselves for all these worthwhile causes and barely give anything to these charities. If they all got off their high horses and donated half of what they have, then a lot of these poor families would actually be looked after.
So refreshing to see celebrities pre-occupied with the unfortunate plight of others, as opposed to purchasing their next $10,000 handbag or 35 million dollar house. Bono is a wonderful example to others and should be commended, not criticized, EVER!
JUANESSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!! MY LOVE!!!
Bono, I wanna bear four more of your children…Call Me!
i love juanes. to see him doing something to help others is that much cooler!!!
Juanes' music is amzaing
Over all he's a good person and he's trying to make a difference!!
and of course he is SEXY!!
Recently saw Juanes in concert in Fresno……rocked it…..as he sang a song he had pictures of wounded people in different countries and it made me cry…..i went there to rock out and have fun and i had to grab a tissue! He is the most talented artist/humanitarian I know. He always puts on a great show!
bono is not a humanitarian…bono is a twat (say it with me perez - TWAT)
Love Juanes
100% Colombia
It's really cool that you posted this, since I've always looked up to Juanes and what he's done.
Aside from what you mentioned he's also played a huge part in trying to resolve the problems that Colombia and Venezuela were having a little while back. He organized a concert on the border of both countries (Paz en las fronteras) and sang and invited many other singers. It was a success and it was FULL!
