(Classic Rock) Bono has been named Glamour magazine's first ever Man Of The Year. The magazine honors various women at its annual Women Of The Year Awards and has chosen the U2 frontman as the inaugural recipient of its new Man Of The Year honor.

Glamour's 27th annual Women Of The Year Awards ceremony takes place on November 14 in Los Angeles. Bono was given the award in recognition of his humanitarian work and his drive to end gender inequality.

He tells Glamour: "I'm sure I don't deserve it. But I'm grateful for this award as a chance to say the battle for gender equality can't be won unless men lead it along with women. We're largely responsible for the problem, so we have to be involved in the solutions." Read more here.
