Chris Martin named third most influential celebrity 2005

Featured Replies

Jamie Oliver is 'most influential celebrity'

RUSSELL JACKSON

 

JAMIE Oliver is the biggest celebrity influence on Britain's middle classes, ahead of everyone from David Cameron to Sir Trevor McDonald, according to a new style guide.

 

After a year in which the young chef became the patron saint of school dinners, his campaign to improve the diets of children made him a hero to parents nationwide.

 

David Cameron, an Old Etonian, is in second place for wooing middle England when he ousted David Davis to win the leadership of the Conservative Party.

 

And the millionaire anti-poverty campaigner Chris Martin, the lead singer of easy-listening rock band Coldplay, came third for bringing such issues to a wider audience.

 

The influences on the middle classes is published in the guide Class of 2006 from the media agency The Fish Can Sing.

 

The guide is an annual publication which monitors how the country's middle classes vary and change.

 

It believes that most of Britain is now "middle class" in one form or another.

It's so weird. Am I the only one who never realises that Chris is a millionaire? :/

I mean sure he is but I never think about him as a millionaire.

Yeah i dont either. I think its coz he's so down to earth and grounded, its easy to forget how bloody minted he is!

Well it depends...

 

I reckon Chris should be No.1 because his impact is worldwide, not just in the UK.

 

Who makes up these flipping polls?? :rolleyes: :lol:

He just still seems like a cute, little school boy :D And he also LOOKS so normal.. It looks like he's shopping in the same stores that we do, that he wears normal, cheap clothes.. Until you realize that these "normal" clothes are bloody expensive :stunned:

a lot of ppl around me say the same.well...they dont hate him....but some says that all the coldplay music is the same.

 

for example my brother: i was listening yesterday some song and he came and told me to change the song....and i was like

Whoa, that's cool.

I hate the way a lot ot ppl hate Coldplay....just because theyre big now...people who havn't even heard all of their songs automatically hate them. Im write on another message board are so abusive about the fact that I love Coldplay...pisses me off.
