Stars line out for Guerin premiere

DESPITE his busy day playing politics, superstar Bono was last night forced to take a back seat to superstud Colin Farrell as he arrived unexpectedly for the World Premiere of Veronica Guerin at the Savoy in Dublin.

The political activist was kept waiting on the red carpet inside the cinema as organisers scrambled to find six seats for Bono, his wife and a group of friends.

Meanwhile, the unpredictable Colin Farrell appeared unperturbed when he arrived 15 minutes late to take his reserved seats, keeping the movies director Joel Schumacher and leading star Cate Blanchett waiting patiently at the entrance to screen one.
