EMILY PRESCOTT: Bono rewrites history about the reason he snubbed Paula Yates over becoming Tiger Lilly's godfather, claims the late star's publicist

U2 frontman Bono has been accused of rewriting history in his new memoir, in which he describes how he abandoned his friendship with wild-living TV presenter Paula Yates and her rock star lover Michael Hutchence over their spiralling drug use.

The Irish rocker claims he severed ties when the couple asked him to be godfather to their daughter Tiger Lily, and he felt compelled to decline.

But last night his account was branded ‘absurd’ by Paula’s former right-hand woman Gerry Agar-Fennell, who tells me that Bono actually turned down their request because of his close friendship with Paula’s ex, Bob Geldof.
