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.

Coldplay SUCKS! Their music sounds like a dying dog howl. It only stands to reason that guy is a douche.
FIRST! I love Coldplay and I can't believe he was such an ass! It must be that time of the month!
#2 COCK!
where does he get off being all diva? Coldplay = shitty music. I might be able to understand his tude if he was in a good band.
#4 COCK!!!
don't be upset because he is fucking Gwen and not YOU, Perez!
#6 COCK!!!
#8 cok!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'd love to be 9 minutes in bed.
Again you diss someone tisk tisk what goes around comes around.
FIRST———— FIRST————-FIRST——————-FIRST!!!!!
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 probably a nine-minute (if that!) man in bed too! ARe you serious Mario? That is so high school. You suck at this. Take your own advice and get over yourself, Mario. YOU SUCK DONKEY BALLS.
who cares about this?! I mean reporters can be annoying as hell and it nds like the questions were pretty bad, I don't blame Chris at all! why are you always kissing these "journalists" asses PorkyPerez?
Perez you grow up. You keep talkin shit bout everyone and everything. He may be 9 minutes in BED but at least hes gettin 9 minutes!!!!!!!!!!
lame
hmm..
So what???
actually he's always been a prissy irritable boy even before gwen. some men are like that. oh well.
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::
Maybe he was just in a bad mood…….Or maybe the reporter was a dick…
Either way……..Who cares
actually he doesn't have to promote shit, the album sells itself. it's coldplay we're talking about here, not some unknown band.
Coldplay sucks!!!!
You put their album on and just sleep!
Terrible.
i still LOVE coldplay
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.
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.
THOSE TWO ASSHOLES DESERVE EACH OTHER I HOPE THEY REVOKE THEIR PASSPORT SO LITTLE GWINNIE AND CO., CAN NO LONGER MAKE MONEY FROM COMING HERE, REAPING THE BENEFITS AND THEN ACTING LIKE THE ASSHOLES THAT THEY ARE.
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.
you telling people to get over themselves is funny
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.
So he's a pretentious rich British asshole. SHOCKER!!
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!
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.
Journalists are douchebags, can't say I blame him!
you wish you had anything to promote besides your self….you have no talent and judge others all day long. You can dish yet you CAN NOT take it and thats more annoying then you, yourself!
Re: W@E.C –
Nice! Ya don't see Perez posting anything liek this!
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.
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 ….
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.
That's twice in 24 hours, Perez. A woman is a diva, a man is a divo.
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.
For once I totally disagree with you.
oh poodle, you are SO right on this one. can't stand him, his band, nor his wife. they definately need to get the fuck over themselves, cause most of us already have.
Gwen likes to have Apple lick her dry snatch while Watches. He the licks gwen's ass and sucks out her period. Then he takes Kimba the family dog and fucks it in the ass. Nice family. CUnTS! Xoxoxox Happy Friday
Carlie Gurl in N Long Beach
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.
He needs to sit on a long orange carrot and swivel. Prick!
they shouldn't be so fucking rude in interviews-why should he have to sit through bullshit questions-I don't know him at all but neither does anybody else and nobody should do something they don't want to do just to make money
Yeah, definitely a premature ejaculator! Totally OVERCUM with himself!
This guy is a complete douche .. I don't know how Gweneth can be with him although apparently Brad Pitt was a giant douche when he was with her too… How come people can say things and then expect them to go away and never come back to haunt them .. this guy isa loser and I am seeing divorce in the imminent future..
Getting all political and stuff. These goddamn rock bimbos really piss me off. They need to stick to bangin the drums, and stringin the guitar and singing their sweet little ignorasmus cheeks off. They know nuthin about politics except greening it up basically to hoik up record sales. Fuckwits!
What else do expect from a Bono wannabe? I wonder if he and Guy Ritchie ever discuss their failure to measure up to their significant others…since they big buddies and all…..
Perez you fatass queer, you are so wrong about him. You're an idiot. Coldplay is the best. YOU will NEVER EVER come close to as awesome they are.
Did you listen ti the interview Perez?
Can't really comment otherwise can you?
That damn Perez sure knows how to headline the Class A nose pickers. This asshole looks like a first class nose picker. Picks green boogers out the left nostril and drills record selling green politico hoi poi out the right hole!!! Basically a friggin first class left wing fraud nose driller@!
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 YOUR TRUE FANS STILL LOVE YOU NO MATTER WHAT!!!!!
OMG I SOO HAVE THAT SHIRT!
WOOOOO
maybe he had diarrhea
Well, in the interview he says that him and Mr Madonna (forgot his name), anyway the missus of shake, it lick it, grind it grandma Mads, anyway all of them are gonna get together and go to Malawi again to buy another child or two and that if Brad and Angie thinks theys the only ones that can save a third world country, then they better think again, cos they got competitoin!
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.
He for sure been fingerin his nose. Check out that left hand.
He's no DIVA!! Not every one wakes up in a good mood, especially if the interviewer is annoying! Chris Martin is one of the most down to earth muscians out there, pick on somebody else perez!!!
Don't you guys think that "Violet Hill & the music video"is a pale copy of Arcade Fire?…. (new music territory… yeah right!?)
What is it about those "band aids" around his fingers (ok Oxfam..bla bla bla)
God, Micheal Jakson get out of Chrissy's body for Christ sake!
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 never knew I will say this but …. SHUT UP PEREZ!!! everyone would be angry when forced into saying something they didn't want to say!!!!!!
u r jealous cos u wanna be a rock star wife!!! u bad boy, u!!!
Chris is the shizit and so is Gwen. They have high standards and try to live up to them. Quit hating. If you were Chris or Gwen you could leave if you were not enjoying yourself either!!! Just like you say celebs sign up for this when they have this type of status, at least one of the perks is - if your not enjoying yourself you can leave!!!!! Get over yourself Perez!!!
Who cares if he left the interview, maybe he didn't feel like talking that day. Talk about a mountain into a molehill…
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 limelight is getting the best of them.
Typical rich douche.
Get over yourself first, P.
You're such a fucking idiot Perez. Your site has started sucking as of late.
ew that makes me cringe only because when celebs at like douche-bags they apparently put out of their minds the fact that they have the most enjoyable jobs in the world and make much more money than like everyone…suck it up Chris…I'll take your job and fame for you if u want!
this is yet another example of Perez worshipping someone and then turning and becoming a douche about them just like that.
Take every Perez says with a grain of salt, he is full of shit and you all know that.
He is a conceited Douche and so is ice queen Gwenyth-both completely self-absorbed
What a prima donna! Note to Chris: Your band's best days are in the past - time to get over yourself!
Listen to it for yourself…the interviewer is a bit of a jerk and makes unwarranted remarks…I'm not saying Chris is an angel, but it was by no means all him!!
Perez should really listen to the interview instead of regurgitating the exact comments from the BBC website article.
And anyone who says Coldplay sucks and that Chris Martin is a jerk based on what Perez says is just as big of an idiot as Perez. People form your own opinions and use your own brains!
Does anyone else notice that comments often get deleted? I've notcied mine have vanished, hmmm funny that.
Chris can afford to be a diva if he wants. And so what. People do worse shit all the time. He left because he was bored. So he has a brain and doesn't want to answer stupid questions. And what promoting. The album will do well regardless. Once again. Please get over yourself Perez lol.
in all fairness, 9 minutes isn't bad depending on how much foreplay is involved
his music sucks BIG TIME HAHAHAHAHA
perez, you're a tool. people who interview can ALSO be tools, thus leading people to get angry and annoyed. i think you may be running out of things to talk about.
He probably still cant beleive his plonkin Brad's ex. Check out the try hard sunglasses, wanky t shirt and jacket. It just DONT PULL together. If it was John Lennon or Jim Morrison you would just know. Problem is you are born cool, its not something you can ever manufacture by marriage or anything else. You either hang and bang or you dont. Chris, you married Gwinnel, you try too hard = you dont hang. But at least you are more cool than that braying donkey, whatsis his name again: the one who dates models. Also a pom. Yeh, thats it, James Clunt. Retire to the country, smoke some plant, write poetry, eat macriobotic greens, and fade away. Try and buy a country plot next to shake, grind, pummel it Grandma Mads and her security blanket. across the lane from Coke Kate. Yous can all play your guitars around camp fires at night in the english country side and pretend to be upper class gentry!
this website sucks. drop the twinkie, and eat a dick, perez. effing loser. all you gossip columnists make me nauseous, and when I got linked to this drivel and actually read it, it makes me want to find you, and punch you. why the hell do you get paid to do this? WHY??
Maybe the interviewers were bad - anyone with a camera and microphone thinks that they are a journalist these days - there is an art to interviewing. Why invite someone to your show and then piss them off - unless you are Howard Stern you aren't going to get away with it - too bad for the radio show but that's life.
PEREZ YOU'VE CROSSED THE LINE! He's not a diva…he is NEVER in the public eye. He does his job and goes home to his wife and kids. He does NOT like doing interviews and neither would I especially when you have a twat asking you questions just to trip you up. I'm glad he acted that way…that bitch deserved it.
He doesn't need to do these things…Coldplay has enough fans that eagerly anticipate the album and know when it's out and will go out and get it.
Stop being such a dick perez.
So what? Just because he doesn't kiss the ass of every journalist that asks rude questions, doesn't make him a Diva. It makes him human, real, not some fake robot. And the 9 minutes thing? Perez is sounding bitter, not funny.
he can say whatever the hell he wants. their new album is absolutely stellar
I support journalists. I won't be buying this album and I've always bought Coldplay's stuff.
Chris Martin is not a publicity whore, he is an artist. Good for him for not answering personal questions that felt wrrong!
RESPECT Chris!
first - I LOVE PEREZ… you are SOOO funny & true. Second - Coldplay sucks, he is ugly and Gweneth is dull as nails. Those two deserve each other.
ps - I love the bitchy comments Perez makes!!
fuck off perez! journalists can be sadistic assholes that like to think they are doing the world a favour for exploiting people! >=[
