March 21, 200917 yr This was in the new zealand herald today, tried to find link to article but couldn't, so i typed it up: Coldplay Front man Chris Martin stepped down the from stage and behind the bar in one of Auckland's hippest bars to make cocktails. After Thursday night's concert for 12,000, Martin went out on the town with kiwi support singer Hollie Smith. The pair have struck up a strong friendship, and her boyfriend TV and radio presented Clarke Gayford says they plan to keep in touch. The band signed a thank-you card for Smith and gave her an expensive champagne before the group headed out to Mea Culpa on Ponsonby Rd after Thursday night's gig. Gayford says Martin jumped at the chance to mix some cocktails with Smith behind the bar. "You don't often find people that are genuine," Gayford, 32, said. "He's like any other decent Kiwi guy. He was down-toearth ... really lovely." Martin is married to movie star Gwyneth Paltrow. The couple have two children, Apple and Moses. Martin also recorded a video message for Gayford to persuade Tourism Queensland he would make a perfect caretaker of a tropical island. Gayford, a former C4 presenter applied, along with 35,000 other applicants, for the dream job of looking after Hamilton Island on the Great Barrier Reef. He is among 50 applicants to make the short-list for the job that would see him living in a $4 million house for six months and earning $193,000. c4 presenter Shavaughn Ruakere also partied with the group on Thursday but Gayford would not be drawn on rumous Martin and the gorgeous brunette were catching up nearly five years after first meeting in London Bar. A source said Martin left Ruakere tickets to his London concert but she was unable to attend. That night he met his current wife. Five years later the singer called Ruakere out-of-the-blue for a catch up. She would not speak to the Hearld on Sunday about their night out yesterday. Source - Nz Herald/Sunday Herald

March 22, 200917 yr Author Uh...what was the point to that article? It was in our Sunday newspapers, it wasn't like in gossip pages or anything. It was kinda just saying to NZers, look!! He likes New Zealand! They did say the whole thing 5 years ago was a rumour, so i don't think they are trying to stir gossip or anything. I didn't type up the bit where is says about other celebrities who have partied in auckland and things. We are a small country, this is exciting for us! :)
