Coldplay's lead singer Chris Martin has reveal how revenge against a school bully was a "pretty sweet" dish.

 

Speaking to the Sun, the 30-year-old musician told of how he was picked on at the posh Dorset school Sherborne for being, in his own words, "a bit of a swot" that preferred playing the piano and guitar over sports.

 

While out and about with his Hollywood beauty of a wife Gwyneth Paltrow, who he married three years ago and has two children with, Chris happened to see the boy who made his school days "hell" and couldn't resist a bit of revenge.

 

"He was a bully who always said I wouldn’t make anything of myself," he added.

 

But the Yellow singer left his former school pal red-faced. "I had great pleasure asking what he was up to now. He wasn’t up to much. Then I turned around and said, 'This is my wife Gwyneth.' His face dropped and he looked really embarrassed."

 

"It was a proud moment. I’m not one to get my own back and look for revenge — but that was pretty sweet," a smug Chris told the newspaper.

 

And can you deny the man a bit of sweet revenge? He may have been the school geek but with 8.3 million copies of Coldplay's last album sold in 2005, Chris and his Hollywood wife are laughing all the way to the bank.

COLDPLAY rocker CHRIS MARTIN tasted revenge recently when he met a former classmate who bullied him at school.

 

The singer - married to Oscar-winning actress GWYNETH PALTROW - insists he couldn't resist the opportunity to show how successful he had become.

He says, "I bumped into a guy who used to give me hell at school. He was a bully who always said I wouldn't make anything of myself.

 

"I had great pleasure asking what he was up to now. He wasn't up to much.

Then I turned around and said, 'This is my wife Gwyneth.' His face dropped and he looked really embarrassed.

 

"It was a proud moment. I'm not one to get my own back and look for revenge but that was pretty sweet.

 

"I wasn't the happiest at school. I was quite geeky. I was a bit of a swot and just wanted to do music."

what a massive!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If i were Chris i would kick his lame ass so much that it would hurt him till he die because of the big pain

Hahaha! Can I assist?

Woo go Chris!

Hahaha! Can I assist?

you may:laugh3:

i am surprised that chris also have some guys who don't like him!:rolleyes:

Why would Chris be talking to 'The Sun'?

 

Bullshit.

 

Where were those quotes really from?

:laugh3: nice

Way to go, Chris! ;)

Cheeky.:laugh4:

:laugh3: good for chris

I find it a bit hard to believe since Chris and Gwyneth almost seem to be trying to hide the fact that the're married,lol. But if it's true, Godd on ya, Chris!!

 

If it was in a source a bit more reliable than the Sun, I'd believe it. Chris would never talk to them directly.

 

Still, I hope it's true.

:laugh3: :laugh3: I love Chris!!! he is the best

Aw, that must have been so sweet. :laugh3: Providing all that the quotes are true, of course. They sure sound like him- but all chopped up and probably edited alot. Man, bullies are the worst... thank goodness they usually grow up a bit when they get out of school.

 

I found the source article in the Sun, but it looks like that came from somewhere else too. http://www.thesun.co.uk/article/0,,4-2007150214,00.html Which may actually make it somewhat more reliable, but leaves the question what interview did this come from anyway?

yay chrissy :smug:

Wow Chris went and pwned that guy. How embarassing!!!

Sweet! I would have loved to see the look on the bully's face. :cool:

wouldn't we all!!!

 

I mean what more could you want if this one person kept putting you down and saying your never gonna make in as a musician and then WAMO!!! ur in one of the biggest bands making millions haha i know how good I'd feel.

^Agree!

 

Awh, Chris :)

I just have to say that I'd have done the same :sneaky:...

It might be sth really great!

:happy:

 

 

I'm glad he's done that.

 

(:nice: I guess we all get our moment )

Chris is so cool

:lol:

prob not true but Wwoohoo!

This has been my dream of revenge also, minus marrying Gywn hehe.

 

one day-- i shall have my revenge........................

one day we shell all :sneaky:

Living well IS the best revenge.

 

Way to go, Chris!

 

"I find it a bit hard to believe since Chris and Gwyneth almost seem to be trying to hide the fact that the're married"

 

I like the fact that they are NOT in each other's back pockets......like Brad walking his respectful distance behind Jolie, carrying her kiddie collection for her.

 

I couldn't picture Chris on the Red Carpet. I can't even imagine Chris in a suit and tie, much less a tuxedo.

 

They have their own careers and lives. That's a good thing!
