The Coldplay frontman admits he finds it hard to deal with the thought that Gwyneth - who is mother to his two children, Apple, four, and two-year-old Moses - used to be engaged to one of Hollywood's hottest heartthrobs.

 

He said: "I always felt it would be great to be with a very powerful woman because it would keep you in your place. Being married to someone very successful and very powerful basically keeps you hungry to improve.

 

"You've got to be hungry. If your wife went out with Brad Pitt, you'd want to prove yourself, you know what I mean?"

 

Chris also revealed he only became confident with the opposite sex when he hit his twenties.

 

He said: "I had a tricky time with girls until I was, like, 21. I got trapped in the friendship tip many, many times. It was like, 'I need to be a rock star because this is no good. I want to be the guy that everybody bangs.'"

 

Chris admitted he often uses sleeping pills to combat his insomnia, but this can sometimes trigger unusual behaviour.

 

He added to Rolling Stone magazine: "I often take a sleeping pill, but then I get excited about a song, so I go and play music, and then it kind of kicks in halfway through.

 

"I have a little corner where nobody can hear me in the middle of the night, and that's where I spend most of the night. I wake up the next morning and find these strange notes to myself - I'm a little bit ashamed about it!"

Coldplay star Chris Martin admits he is jealous of Gwyneth Paltrow's ex Brad Pitt

 

Coldplay singer Chris Martin has confessed that he is still struggling to come to terms with the fact his wife Gwyneth Paltrow was briefly engaged to Hollywood heart-throb Brad Pitt.

Martin admits that Pitt's reputation as one of the most desired male celebrities has left him feeling insecure, and even drives him to make a success of his life.

 

"You've got to be hungry," Chris told US rock magazine Rolling Stone in an interview. "If your wife went out with Brad Pitt, you'd want to prove yourself, you know what I mean?"

 

Martin insists his wife is the only woman he has ever had a serious relationship with. The couple, who married in 2003, have two children named Apple and Moses.

 

He said: "I've only been in one serious relationship," he said. "Is that weird? I don't think it's that weird."

 

The musician, from Exeter in Devon, also admits that he worried that he was gay while growing up.

 

He told Rolling Stone: "It was more like, 'Oh s***, what if?', because he was brought up to think it was wrong.

 

"But then it struck me: who gives a s**t? And then it wasn't a problem.

 

"It sounds silly to say it now, but when you're a kid you think, 'I'm going to burn in hell for eternity if I like other guys or if I marry someone Jewish'."

 

He eventually realised he was heterosexual.

 

"I was swayed by boobs," he said. "Let's face it, they're fantastic."

 

Even so, he continued to have bad luck around the opposite sex.

 

He said: "There were religious issues and s**t like that. Also confidence. I had a tricky time with girls. I got trapped in the friendship tip many, many times.

 

"I was like, 'I need to be a rock star'".

Although Chris's insecurities are understandable, I hope he remembers one simple fact. Yes, Gwyneth used to be with Brad Pitt, but she's not now. She's married to him, and is presumably all the better for it. Also, Brad should realise that Angelina's likely to bin him at any time, given her past history!
