I voted for the Fly before I realized that it said "Best" and not "Favorite".  MacPhisto is the best.  So much went into making that character and he did such a great job acting.

MacPhisto is a truly inspired creation, but speaking as a woman who saw this guy when she was 13, the creepiness sticks with you so I'm gonna have to vote for The Fly because that guy gave me my first unvirginal fantasy and I'll leave it at that, hehe.

That seems to be a theme with any number of Bono versions.

And as I said any number of times, nothing will ever top Mac at The Vatican. It was the most brilliant piece of performance art ever.

I am torn between the out and out sexiness of the The Fly and the brilliance of the creation that is Mr. Macphisto. ???
 

I understand that conflict completely. However, I am at heart a shallow perv so I have to go with The Fly.

Ditto. And did you know it's The Fly immortalized at Madame Tussaud's in Las Vegas?

Really? Doesn't it seem like it should be MacPhisto instead? Hmmmm :-\

YES.

But The Fly is too.

And those purple uniform things they wore.

The Fly over Mr. Macphisto by a hair.

But if we were to judge by best performances, I'd have to give it to Desire and Mirrorball Man. Brilliantly done.

When I was15-16 y.o. I frightened Bono 'The fly'   :P 'cause I was an 'innocent' girl and he express sex in every point of his skin (LOL)... and I preferred Mac Phisto



The tempting devil ... Every way I think Bono is fantastic in every character he impersonate (it's right what I wrong? :P often I doubt I wrong)

How could you think The Fly was worse than MacPhisto? MacPhisto is every bit as sexy as Fly, just in a different way. :D

Mmm... :-*
