Bono: 'Girls Aloud are cutting edge'

Rex Features

Bono has said that Girls Aloud are a "cutting edge" act who deserve the success that they are currently enjoying.

The U2 frontman claimed that he sees his own band as contemporaries of bands like Coldplay, Interpol, Kings of Leon and the girl group, The Sun reports.

Bono said: "Seriously, I think Girls Aloud are at the cutting edge of pop music. They are a great band and deserve to be centre stage.

"They have everything a pop band should have - songs, the look, it's all there."

U2 played new single 'Get On Your Boots' at last night's Brit Awards ceremony, while Girls Aloud played award-winning single 'The Promise'.
