ONE supporters George Clooney, Bono, Ellen DeGeneres, Will Smith, Bill & Melinda Gates and Sean Combs are in this week’s TIME Magazine top 100 people whose power, talent or moral example are transforming our world.

Article on George Clooney written by Belinda Luscombe:
Some handsome men are like diamond bracelets. They show up on some woman’s arm, and you admire them, but they never really seem worth what you’d have to pay. Others are like Swatches: cute, disposable and interchangeable. In this taxonomy, George Clooney is a family heirloom.
Frankly, with that air of mischief (which he earned) and those looks (which he didn’t), he could coast. But he seems driven to do more. To direct. To fight poverty with the One campaign and one.org. Thus he gains that final thing heirlooms have over other gems: gravitas.

Article on Bono by former Senator Jesse Helms:
When I was first told in 2000 that Bono wanted to meet with me to talk about boosting U.S. aid to Africa, I didn’t know who he was. But my Senate staff certainly did. After so many years in Washington, I had met enough people to quickly figure out who is genuine and who is there for show. I knew as soon as I met Bono that he was genuine. He had his facts in hand and didn’t have any agenda other than doing all he could to help people in desperate need.
