Stars Turn Out For Live 8 DVD Launch
Annie Lennox and Razorlight among the invited guests
The designer sunglasses were out in force last night as stars aplenty descended on the launch of the Live 8 DVD.
The launch event, held in London's West End, saw invited guests such as Annie Lennox, Razorlight and Geldof family members (including Heavenly Hiranni Tigerlilly) and the media glitterati gather to mark the forthcoming release of the four-disc Live 8 release made up of performances from around the world on July 2.
Highlights from the evening included Annie Lennox's stirring Live 8 performance being played on the big screen and receiving a huge round of applause, and Live 8 mastermind Bob Geldof's simple words of promotion for the DVD release:
"If you don't buy these DVDs then you're a f*cking idiot!"
Geldof also alluded to the news that he has been named Man of Peace 2005 by Nobel Peace Prize winners. "Another lump of graphite for the mantelpiece," said Bob, "well done me." Well done you indeed.
The Live 8 DVD hits the shops on November 7. Buy it.
