Actung Baby boy...

U2 star Bono was celebrating the birth of his fourth child last night and joked: "He looks like a thug." The child, who has yet to be named, was born late on Sunday night within 20 minutes of Bono's wife Ali being driven to a Dublin hospital.

Bono flew back from the North American leg of the band's tour on Thursday the day before the baby was due to be with his wife and the group even shifted some of the dates in an effort to avoid clashing with the birth.

He told Irish radio station 2FM today: "I'm really just very, very excited. I've had quite a few days of excitement - more than I would have liked, just trying to get home for the baby. We walked off stage in Chicago went straight to the airport and got home to a very cool customer. Y'know Ali is very relaxed and very chilled out and `what's all the fuss'. She was great."

He said Ali "roared like a lion" when she was giving birth. "He looks like a bullet. He looks like a thug," said Bono who did not know the sex of the baby before it was born.

The rock idol paid tribute to the nurses at the hospital and said: "They passed the baby to me and he opened his mouth and I thought he was going to do one of those things they do where they just scream - and he just yawned. He's a very cool customer. He looked around at the world and was bored already."

Bono and Ali now have two boys and two girls. "And I'm only half catholic," he joked. Their daughters are Jordan, 11, and Eve, 9, and their son is Elijah who is nearly two. "I really am the happiest man and in awe of those nurses and mothers," he said.

The millionaire music star, who is scheduled to continue with the band's Elevation Tour later this week, said they would try to work out the baby's character before naming him. "I just want to kind of get a grip on the baby and pick up on what he is. What I'm getting is that he's like a bank robber. The last one had a kind of poet's head on him. This guy looks more like a bouncer. I'm quite high at the moment - I don't know which end is up. I'm just amazed to be so blessed. Things are going so well with the band and to have this work out now - two boys and two girls - I feel really, really blessed.
