Les Poissons d'Avril

I look around, I look around and I see a lot of dodgy stories out there on the Internet. More than usual, since it's April Fool's Day! In fact, it's been a real mission to separate the true jewels from the genuine diamelles today. To be totally honest, I need your help, NowPublicans! Which of the stories below are real, and which are all-in-good-fun April Fool's BS?

The NowPublic Content Team welcomes you to confirm or debunk the stories that appear below. We'll be adding to the list throughout the day, so be sure to check back in from time to time. Some of these stories may actually be real.

Best of luck, newshounds...

I'm sure you could tell which one is real and which is not based on some of the titles....Bono, Madonna, and Chris Martin are recording a spoof song for Borat?  ;-}

With some of these, I'm still not 100% certain.
