Bill Clinton celebrated his 65th birthday and the 10th anniversary of the William J. Clinton Foundation with a huge bash on Saturday at the Hollywood Bowl.

Performing at the “Decade of a Difference” concert were Stevie Wonder, Lady Gaga, Kenny Chesney, Usher, and Bono and The Edge.

Gaga sang a number of her hits and danced suggestively for the both the 42nd president and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.

But before she belted out “You and I,” she gave everyone, including the Clintons, the finger, and said, “If someone had told me so many years ago that I’d be doing that right in front of you, I just would not have believed them. I would have given them a good American ‘f**k you.’”

The superstar then sang a reworked version of “You and I” with such lyrics as “It’s been 12 years since you came around… So Hillary or Bill, sit back down where you belong in the oval office with those high heels on… Something about American nights when a Clinton makes us all feel safe. Somewhere something about a cool, Arkansas guy, yes, something about — Billary… Billary, that’s your new celebrity name… to the Clintons, you and I.”

What do you think about Gaga flipping the bird and dropping the f-bomb like that?

U2‘s Bono and The Edge, Lady Gaga and Usher are set to perform at a massive, live streamed bash for Bill Clinton‘s foundation that will feature other “socially responsible” artists in music, film and television.

“A Decade of Difference: A Concert Celebrating 10 Years of the William J. Clinton Foundation” will take place on Saturday, October 15 at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles.

The event will be broadcast exclusively on Yahoo! at ClintonConcert.Yahoo.com.

“I am proud that some of today’s most influential performers are coming together to raise awareness about the work of my Foundation,” said Clinton in a statement.

The former President continued, “In the past decade, commitments to my Clinton Global Initiative have improved the lives of more than 300 million people around the world. We’ve lowered the cost of AIDS and HIV treatment, combated climate change, strengthened economies, increased access to education and healthcare, provided financing and mentoring for small businesses. This celebration marks ten years of these efforts and demonstrates how much we can do to make a difference in the years ahead.”

“U2′s Bono makes diva demands while dining with the Edge at New York’s Butter restaurant,” reads the super long – and wrong – headline of a New York Daily News piece today.

Not leaving bad enough alone, the story begins: “Diva alert: U2 front man Bono dined with bandmate Edge at Butter… and another person dining there says he had more than a few demands.”

The paper reports that Bono “wanted Perrier, which they didn’t have, so a waiter actually ran across the street to a store and bought him a bottle.” That’s fairly accurate, though Bono didn’t demand that. The item also claims Bono “demanded that his salad be chopped.”

Bono didn’t demand that either. In fact, he asked that the salad be chopped, the same way anyone else would request, for instance, dressing on the side.

When Gossip Cop contacted Butter’s owner, we were told that, contrary to what “another person dining there” claimed, Bono ”could NOT have been nicer.” The restaurant’s owner further offered that U2′s lead singer “was gracious to [the] staff” and “tipped GREAT,” before hanging out for a while at the hotspot. 

We doubt Bono would “demand” an apology from the person who spread this false report, though the socially conscious singer certainly deserves it.
