Mimixxx Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 If your wife was an Oscar-winner who other actors considered far better looking than you, you'd understandably be a tad touchy whenever the topic was brought up. Chris Martin, for example - mention his wife's previous partners and he's likely to go for you like only a rock star bubbling up inside from suppressing his natural urges to act like Keith Moon can. Just ask Q editor Paul Rees, who was responsible for this clanger. During a Q interview and in an acceptance speech at the recent Q awards, Martin had expressed his admiration for the cashiers-made-good from Girls Aloud and so later during the night of the awards, Rees decided to bowl up and compliment the singer on excellent taste in women. Martin explained to him that he had been told by his wife that he was only allowed to leave her if it was for one of the pop starlets, and by a reciprocal arrangement, she had chosen... Irish crooners Westlife. (Fuck knows why, but then again anyone who thinks eating pulses is a good idea can't really be trusted with anything can they. Clearly bemused by Paltrow's choice and not giving himself time to engage his brain, Rees blurted out: "You could have at least told her Brad Pitt." All well and good, given the number of women who'd froth at the mere thought of it. Except, as Martin so eloquently put it.... "She was engaged to him, you fucker." Bugger. Realising he'd just committed a massive faux pas, Rees tried to comfort Martin with a fatherly arm round the shoulder while pointing out that Paltrow had at least dumped the Hollywood A-lister for him. But sadly these words too failed to resonate with the musician, and he proceeded to execute a swift blow to the chest accompanied by the word "cunt". A-MAZING. Don't expect any Coldplay exclusives in Q in the near future. http://www.holymoly.co.uk/news/28/exclusive3-journalist-punched-by-chris-martin-for-mentioning-paltrows-ex-4409.html Hmm....:rolleyes: Chris was obviously taking the piss, but as usual he gets taken seriously and does his reputation even more harm :P Guess they're in the new issue of Q though :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mc_squared Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 That journo's obviously "the Pitts". I'm sure he did it on purpose.................... :dozey: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mimixxx Posted October 17, 2008 Author Share Posted October 17, 2008 Even if he did I'm sure Chris didn't care. Is just a shame there's now going to be a billion stories saying he does :dozey: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
majgirl Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 wow, poor Chris. But I gotta say my entire life I've found Brad Pitt repulsive, so Chris wins in my book by a landslide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jsalyers Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 Ya thats true Mich!! Well deserve the reporter right, I bet you he did know that Chris doesnt like the topic of that!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mc_squared Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 Even if he did I'm sure Chris didn't care. Is just a shame there's now going to a billion stories saying he does :dozey: Well we met the real Chris outside the Astoria last week.:smug: Maybe these journalists should learn to be a bit more polite and tactful.;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPRani Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 Well, some reporters are just idiots, I bet Chris didn't care at all, well I hope he didn't. Oh, and I don't like Brad Pitt at ALL! So yeah, you go Chris! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mimixxx Posted October 17, 2008 Author Share Posted October 17, 2008 Indeed. Or maybe the press should acquire a sense of humour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mc_squared Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 Indeed. Or maybe the press should acquire a sense of humour. Anyway, what made that guy think he had the right to put his arm round Chris's shoulder without asking him first?? I'm sure that would annoy anyone.:dozey: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mimixxx Posted October 17, 2008 Author Share Posted October 17, 2008 No, I think you guys are missing my point here. I think it was a joke between Chris and the Q guy, he may have said it on purpose but it was all very lighthearted. It's the rest of the press/bloggers that have misinterpreted the encounter ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mc_squared Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 Ya especially if your not to fond of the person already!! Well I think it's an extremely patronising gesture full stop, unless you're "best mates" with someone and the moment is right.;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jsalyers Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 Ohhhh ok ok!!! Ya I can see how they would misunderstand that, just like I did right now;) Hopefully if any other articles are written, Chris will say they were only joking:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ApproximatelyInfinite Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 i don't know, i wonder if it was just a lighthearted thing. that's something a lot of people would take offense to, and we know chris isn't the most secure of people sometimes. i don't think this is one of those times that he says something to "play" with the press, like when he said they sit around sewing their jackets or the sleeping pill thing. but BLERGH.

Cobalt Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 He gets a bit touchy but he's fiercely protective as well, alas, not a good move Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mimixxx Posted October 17, 2008 Author Share Posted October 17, 2008 The Westlife thing was obviously a joke though, I dunno, I get a jokey vibe from it. He wouldn't punch someone in the chest because they mentioned Brad Pitt, especially when Chris has made jokes about him before :idea2: Plus Chris is the one that bought Gwyneth up, he must have been in a good mood to do that. I still think it was a joke, otherwise it would have come out before now. I did happen nearly two weeks ago :idea2: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cobalt Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 The Westlife thing was a joke, I think it was when it went to Brad Pitt he turned angry because I severely doubt Chris would call anyone a cunt jokingly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mimixxx Posted October 17, 2008 Author Share Posted October 17, 2008 I call people "c**t" jokingly. Maybe us English are more relaxed with our language. I guess we don't know, but Chris has made Brad jokes before. Why would he suddenly get a complex over it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobalt Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 Well, he can get somewhat irrational sometimes... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melanieau Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 when is Chris going to learn that everything he says is going to be taken seriously in the press?? We've all seen the video....if Chris wanted to beat this guy down he could've done it easily. I'm sure he was just joking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mimixxx Posted October 17, 2008 Author Share Posted October 17, 2008 He was totally giddy at the Q awards too. :idea2: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
