Bono and Oprah confirm iPod nano RED in Chicago
Welp, looks like those iPod nano Reds have been confirmed -- Bono and Oprah (Bonoprah?) congregated to the North Michigan Ave. Chi-town Apple Store to catch this amazing photo op. Hocking AIDS curing portable audio players never looked so fun.
Oh yeah, caption contest! Naw, you can't win anything, but it's not like we can't have a little fun at their expense.
Ryan - "Ms. Winfrey, Mr., um Bono, may I interest you in some iSplitters?"
Pete - "I wish we could afford a second iPod!"
Paul - "Yeah, I'm starting to have second thoughts about Vertigo as well."
Cyrus - Oprah: "Do we really have to listen to all of 'Under a Blood Red Sky' right now?"
Evan - "Sorry, Oprah; even as a book-on-tape, The Uncommon Wisdom of Oprah Winfrey still isn't very compelling"

"oooo, you're right! This bud DOES feel better inside my ear canal!"
Oprah Ummm, so I et these "pro bono" for promoting these?
Oprah: "Does his makeup look better than mine?"
"My grandma and my dog 'ol blue
The pope has got it and so do you
C'mon everybody we got quilting to do!"
Song: "YMCA"
Bono: "Change the f*****g song!!!!"
Oprah: "Oooooh Touché"
Oprah: If this Biaachh don’t step away from my personal space, I will go T.Cruise on her ass!!!
I especially like the Apple employees lurking in the background. They were probably told not to speak to Bono or Oprah unless spoken to.
Oh and the bald guy through the window looks like he's tired of waiting "Give me my red iPod NOW"
Shorter really-white guy in the background:
"I am SO sticking those earphones in my pants after they leave..."
Oprah: "This color makes me hungry."
oprah: "where is he looking? sure isnt my face."
Oprah: "This song sucks, who is this???"
Bono: "Uhh, that would be U2"
Oprah: "It's a shame these weren't around back during your Zooropa Tour, when they could have doubled as earplugs."
Bono: "Right. That tour was bleedin' shiite."
Oprah: "How many iPods promotions do you plan on being a part of Bono?"
Oprah: "Bono, honey. Who did that dye job?"
Oprah: What the hell do you mean by I have to pay 99 cents a song to put music on this thing?!?
Thats so weird. I was in that store just last year. It kinda strange to see world famous celebrities standing in place you were.
O: "oh, daaaaaaaaaaaamn"
B: "what?"
O: "i cant believe you sucked me into this, i mean come on, I'm getting NO money for this."
My favorite, on the fullsize picture ( http://www.chicagotribune.com/media/photo/2006-10/25865863.jpg ) is the Apple employee wearing a t-shirt over top of a dress shirt... classy
ooo ive stood in that exact same place as oprah are bono are standing!!!!
I know totally!
Bonoprah? noo, I call them Opo!
Apple staff: "I SO stuck those earbuds inmy pants before they arrived"
This isn't really a caption, but am I missing something? That apple store employee looks like a MODEL they just hired for the opening?
I cant believe the news today
Oh, I cant close my eyes and make it go away
How long...
How long must we listen to this song?
How long? how long...
cause tonight...we can be as one
Tonight...
Apple staff in the background: "I wonder how much we can get on eBay for Oprah and Bonos ear wax."
It's too bad these won't be 8GB, as I would probably be pushed into ordering one upon the announcement. I haven't quite gone for the black 8GB (I have a gold 4GB mini now), but I bet I would order one if it were red (which looks nice IMO) and is hopefully maybe making some slight difference for a good cause?
Big whoop.
"Dayymn, Bono. For a white dude, you sure talk about Nelson Mandela a lot."
Bono : "Why yes Oprah, that is my Audible copy of "A Million Little Pieces" playing.
See, I downloaded this bootleg MP3 of "Vertigo"
"Bono, Oprah. Oprah, Bono."
Sales associate: "Thats right Oprah. And if you push the button with two triangles... NO, the one pointing to Bono. No. NO! JUST GIVE ME THE DAMN THING!"
PS: I am so going to watch oprah tomarrow morning and then go to the gap and the apple store. They better have those tasty lil' bitches in stock!
The pair would be called "Oh no!"
Caption:
Bono thinking - I don't need to share the earbuds with you. There's another one on the table.
The Apple fanboys came up to me
their faces red like this iPod nano
and they started peelin' off them dollar bills
slappin' 'em down
ONE HUNDRED!
TWO HUNDRED!
Oprah: "Well Bono, when you spend as much time promoting yourself as I spend promoting myself you'll get to have gigantic cave woman bags under yours eye just like me!"
Oprah: "Why is that woman staring at my chest?"
Oprah: "See, I told you my hair colour would look good on you."
No that is not a model, I have seen her many times working the store
"Hello"
"Hello?"
"Can you hear me Oprah?"
"I'm not so sure about this new iPhone Bono..."
Oprah: Do you hear the same song I'm hearing?
Bono: Yeah..
Oprah: Well, whoever sings this cant count! Uno, Dos, Tres...Catorce?
Bono: Fuck you.
Bono: Wait, are you SURE that's red? It's hard to tell witth these glasses on.
does Bono remind anyone else of John Goodman's character in the Big Lebowski??
Store manager talking very softly to staff in the back ground:
"Do not touch or speak to The Bono or The Oprah unless spoken to first. And if anybody is going to ask for a autographed nano, it'll be me, damnit!"
Have you seen my U2 ipod? it's MUCH nicer looking and only 80 bucks more...
"That's right... we are both richer than God!"
YOU GET AN iPOD! YOU GET AN iPOD! YOU GET AN iPOD!!!
Oprah : With your millions and my millions, do we really have to share?
Bono : We're doing the share thing for more millions!
I was at that Apple store just the other week....
I wiped a booger off under the counter where Bono and Oprah are standing!!
