CHRIS TUCKER - TUCKER MORE FAMOUS THAN BONO IN AFRICA

TUCKER MORE FAMOUS THAN BONO IN AFRICA

Comedian CHRIS TUCKER was left amazed during a visit to Ethiopia with rocker BONO - because he was recognised more than the U2 superstar. Tucker and Bono visited Africa together in 2002 as part of a fact-finding mission to witness the effects of charity donations. The Rush Hour star tells Playboy magazine, "I was with Bono in Ethiopia. Surprisingly, they were more familiar with me. He's way more visible than I am around the world, but, in Africa, they were like, `Chris! Chris Tucker!' "It was something to know that in some places more people recognised me than the biggest rock star in the world."
