Bono and Ali Celebrate Eve`s B`Day

Bono unveiled an unusual duet for his daughter Eve’s 21st birthday in Las Vegas Saturday night. When family and friends — including music mogul Jimmy Iovine and his son, Justin — gathered at a private table by the DJ booth at 1Oak at the Mirage, the U2 frontman and proud dad slipped DJ Jus-Ske a CD of him and wife Ali Hewson singing Lady Gaga’s “Telephone” together. Bono introduced the track on the mike while giving his daughter a special happy-birthday greeting — two magnums of Dom Perignon champagne delivered to their table with an accompanying LED light show. Rapper Fabolous, who was in the house to perform at the club, gave Eve a shout-out and dedicated his performance to her. “Transformers” director Michael Bay, party boy Wilmer Valderrama and Laker star Kobe Bryant were also spotted at tables nearby. Before the bash began, Bono threw a dinner for Eve at Tao Las Vegas, where guests sat across the room from NBA champ LeBron James and Sands Resorts CEO Sheldon Adelson.

The previous day Bono attended The Beatles LOVE by Cirque du Soleil.
