Diva!

Filed under: Anglophilia > Music Minute > Wacky, Tacky & True > Gwyneth Paltrow > Coldplay

Wifey Gwenny Paltrow seems to be rubbing off on Chirssy boy!

According to the BBC, Coldplay frontman Chris Martin walked out nine minutes into a pre-recorded interview for BBC's Radio 4 because he wasn't enjoying himself.

He's probably a nine-minute (if that!) man in bed too!

The band's drummer, Will Champion, was left to answer questions from the interviewer until Martin decided to return for one final question.

Seems like Chrissy was on the defensive and pouty from the get go. When he was asked about a speech he made at a music awards ceremony in 2005 where he said the band would be away "for a very long time", Martin said, "I always say stupid things and I think Radio 4 is the place that will most remind me of that."

Then when the interviewer questioned whether the new album was a morbid reflection of the band's lyrical obsession with death.

Husband of Gwenny said, "I wouldn't agree with you there at all, no. I'd say you're journalistically twisting me into saying something I don't really mean."

He then peaced out a few minutes later saying "(I'm) not really enjoying this" and that he did not really like "having to talk about things".

Martin returned to answer a final question, about finding new musical territory, with the response: "Um….yes…yes, yes….exactly…"

Get over yourself, Chris.

You have an album to promote.

Deal with it.

    i was wondering when this moment would have come………….

    its weird how their music sounds good…….but when you really think about it….. it all has the same concept and sound

    i actually thought that they would have been the U2 for today's culture. but i guess when you fuck a COLD RIGGED BITCH THAT CUMM JUICE WILL SUCK YOU FROM THE GOLD SOUL YOU ONCE HAD.

    He's not being a diva. The journalist asked him a preconcieved question that was intended to be a bit of a dig. You're an idiot.

    He is obviously a man of values and integrity — one who doesn't feel comfortable with the sly journalistic tactics of hungry, untamed reporters. ::cough::

    actually he doesn't have to promote shit, the album sells itself. it's coldplay we're talking about here, not some unknown band.

    He doesn't have to answer any question he doesn't want to, it just goes to prove that he isn't a sellout like so many other musicians out there. Once again, Perez, you just need to shut the fuck up until you know what you're talking about.

  26. R says – reply to this

    Fuck you Perez!

    When you're this talented, you can tell people to fuck off whenever you like. I hope he does it again, but this time, I hope he pisses on the interviewer first.

    Chris Martin is a very talented person and he has beautiful wife. I think he has every right to be a diva. That makes me like him even more.

    when you're as beloved and revered as coldplay i think you have the right to not answer some morons questions… or deal with idiots who want to get your goat. interviews SUCK, especially when you're not in the mood.

    Check it out on the BBC Radio 4 website page - Front Row is the programme Click the 'listen again' link and you'll hear him in all his preciousness. You've only got til 7.45pm UK time to listen -after that tonight's programme goes up instead.

    i agree with him. sounds like the guy was asking jerkoffy questions. i think celebrities nowadays are so fake that when someone gives a real answer, an answer that one of us would give, they are taken as asses

    more power to you chris!

  34. LadyL says – reply to this

    What an assface. I use to be into coldplay…I saw them @ Coachella a few years back, and they put on a good show. But since i've gained knowledge of the personalities they possess I've lost all interest in them… It's a shame when good music happens to bad people, they always fuck themselves over.

    Spoilt, pathetic, dull and lifeless has-been! What the fuck did Gwyneth see in this bore in the first place…? I know people who were at school with Chris Martin and they are still stunned at how sucessful he's become as at school he was nobody special and not even that talented. His band have had a few good songs, that's it. I've seen them perform at festivals and almost fell asleep. Plus he's not even good-looking! Maybe he's got a big dick or something, but he is so fucking boring otherwise.

  39. Lola says – reply to this

    Hey everyone - listen to the interview and make your own minds up. Go to the BBC website, (the bbcdotcodotuk version, not BBC America) click Radio 4, select Front Row 'go to website' from the programme A-Z, d then click the listen to the latest edition' button. He was clearly very uncomfy with the whole interview, but I don't think the interviewer was being unreasonable or awkward. Who knows what they edited out though ….

  40. Lor says – reply to this

    Their latest CD blows. Its the same old shit they have put out before only now its tired. They are very one dimensional. His wife must have lent him the stick she usually has up her ass for his interview, though i am 100% positive she has a back-up stick for occasions just like this.

    Radio 4 is run by fools. If you yanks didn't know that then no kidding he would come off bad. But radio 4 is run by retarded monkeys so if I had to do an interview with them I would be pissed too.

    Perez! You obviously didn't even listen to the interview. Geez, man do some research. The interviewer had called Chris "sexist" without warrant and was answering his own questions without even letting Chris finish the real answer. Also, did you not realize that the version of the interview that was released was edited down by quite a lot? None of us have any idea what was said between the two men that they've chosen to edit out. I hate it that Chris walked out because I think it's unprofessional but it was totally provoked. He's anything but DIVA Perez! That would be you that's a DIVA. Chris Martin is actually very humble… almost to a fault. Also, Will did a great job continuing on with the interview so he deserves props.

    He's been full of himself for awhile now. Coldplay hasn't even been around that long. He thinks he's Bono or something. U2 was around for over 15 years before Bono got on his high-horse and started getting all political. Chris Martin has a huge ego - if we don't respect you, we won't like your music.

    You've only got til 7.45pm UK time tonight to listen though, as after that the new edition goes up. It's 5.45 now.

    Don't you think the questions were not so thinly veiled insults asking him (Chris) to confirm that he is indeed an asshole? I don't blame him for having attitude. Why is it that celebrities have to suck up to the media no matter what? The media has always had their own agenda and doesn't deserve the to wield so much power. The media gets more attention if they piss off a celebrity than if they are decent. To me, it's a shitty game.

    Getting all political and stuff. These goddamn rock bimbos really piss me off.

They know nuthin about politics except greening it up basically to hoik up record sales. Fuckwits!

    He's probably a nine-minute (if that!) man in bed too

    The only time Perez lasts 9 minutes in bed is when he gets stuck on his back like a turtle. Takes 9 minutes of rocking back and forth before he can get enough momentum to sit up or roll over

    Chris Martin is a musician…he is under no obligation to indulge and partake in useless conversation that is not relivant to the album that he is currently promoting. If you've turned on a TV in the last month you would know that his band has been promoting their album with itunes comercials…etc. Just because he has artistic integrity doesn't make him a diva or a sissy.

    Yeah, he got artistic nosetrigity. Artistic integrity basically means finger licking nuthing. Hoi Poloi for being an artisy farty good singer with nice sounding lyrics, raking in millions, laying on your ass all day except for yogo lessions and macriobitic chef prepared meals, going to the record studio two days a month to make another million dollar raker, putting your finger up your ass to save Malawi once a year, or throw a coin to Tibet with Sharon, but nuttin else. Mostly hanging out with movie stars, going to high falutin parties and wearing a cool pair of designer sunglasses. PLUUUUUUUU … EEZ!!!!

    I'M really starting to lose my faith in coldplay. I saw them when Parachutes came out and I feel like they are a completely different band now (personality wise). Chris Martin seems to be so full of himself- and if you're all about the FANS- you wouldnt DELAY your stupid tour so that your FANS can't go. The limelig
