Hello,

 

I dont really post that much but today I got off the Tube at Charing Cross station to be met by Chris Martin in an elephant costume right by the escalators! CRAZY! It's the first time I have met him!

 

He was wearing the full costume head to toe. He was in front of the camera holding up a ripped cardboard with the lyris "When she was just a girl..." written by hand on it.

 

This was today at about lunch time (tuesday). In total it was about 3 people behind the camera fixing stuff, one bodyguard & Chris in an elephant suit!

 

I went up to shake his hand saying I loved his music and he said "How do you know it's me!?". As they couldn't see his face people thought he was some type of busker or perfomer, little did they know they were shaking the hand of the lead singer of Coldplay!

Wow great!! :D But also what the hell?! :facepalm:

 

Thanks for sharing :nice:

Haha great :) You only saw Chris? No Guy, Jon of Will?

Only Chris was there, no other band members :)

Only a true Coldplayer - outside of South Africa - would know that such costumes are related to Coldplay.

 

CONGRATS! Awesome way of meeting Mr. CM

 

BTW, who else is thinking that maybe the initial video idea with the Brazilian model was changed for the elephant-based video????

This video is going to be weird! :uhoh:

lol this video's gonna be crazy. LOVE IT

I think they're maybe making two ala VLV and VH. They wouldn't dump the Hype Williams one.

SUPER STORY :dance: Glad you posted it :thumbsup:

 

"How do you know it's me!?"

 

HaHa^^ :nice:

Chris Martin had to be really surprised when someone recognized him as an Elephant. :D

pics or it didn't happen.

I don't want elephants in Paradise video :/

you haven't even seen it yet, you can't say that

I cannot stop giggling every time I think about this video. On Saturday night, I almost thought Chris was joking when he came onto the stage in that costume... I didn't really believe it was going to be in the video until I read about it on the news on Sunday.

:stunned: No more real Coldplay. They are elephants now. :(

pics or it didn't happen.

 

 

I was taking out my mobile phone to take a pic, the bodyguard (who I thought was a member of the public watching) stepped in front of me, I then asked can i take a photo, he said no. :(

 

I then saw a kid come up and shake Chris - the elephants hand (they were fiixing something with the camera at that point) so I thought hey, I might as well go and say hello!

But it's a cool story, tnx for sharing it! :nice:

Amazing story! Also, this is just going to the be the weirdest music video yet. So excited.

haha i'm so exited now! I think it's gonna be great. They should have fun with the videos, the music is already awesome. They shouldn't take themselves so seriously. I mean they're already international super stars.

I bet there were a lot of kids who did that whilst he was there. I hope the bodyguard didn't deny them pictures too. Harsh :\ :P

 

Kid: Mummy mummy can I have a photo with the elephant?! :cheesy:

Kelly: Stand down! :veryangry:

Kid: :bigcry:

Wooow! Elephants! :facepalm:

This is bound to be either reaaaally funny or really awful!

I'm guessing awful. Paradise just isen't a good song.. But maybe the video can make it up, and make it seem better. :)
