Roger Friedman doesn’t hate Harry; he says he has a lot of charisma and calls him a “really nice chap”. But he thinks he has no musical direction, no ideas of his own and that he should stick to acting. He went to a 1D concert at MSG and ever since, he has claimed that Niall was the real musical talent. In every review, he compares Harry unfavourable with Niall. It’s quite funny with the flipped narrative when you are used to most other reviewers always putting Harry on a pedestal!

Thanks for reading through all the reviews. That is very interesting. I guess what Friedman has is an unpopular opinion— compared to most other reviewers.

U2 album should come in June

Exclusive Report: Roger Friedman

The new U2 album should come in June. So says Bono, to me, at the Weinstein Company party following the Golden Globes. Bono and U2 won the Globe for their song “Ordinary Love” from the movie “Mandela.” The group held court on a platform of couches, entertaining friends including Usher on Sunday night before taking off to an after party said to be at 1Oak on Sunset Boulevard.

The group had just played at Sean Penn’s Haiti fundraiser on Saturday night with a young Haitian singer named Anaelle Jean-Pierre. I sat with Bono at the Weinstein party and praised him for his passion about politics, Mandela, Africa, etc.

“We’re persistent, I’ll say that,” he replied with a rueful chuckle. “I don’t think we’re the only ones who care. I think lots of people do. They just don’t have the opportunity.”

Bono told me the group was busy finishing the new album. “We’re still working some things out,” he said. In the meantime, they will release a new single in the next few weeks. It’s called– and this is exclusive– “Invisible.” “It’s not what you expect,” Bono told me. “It’s not your typical love song.”
