May 3, 201412 yr RICKY GERVAIS' NINE COMMANDMENTS OF BEING NICE 3. …And always fight your friends' corner “I remember Karl [Pilkington] being annoyed about a couple of snide reviews for the first series of An Idiot Abroad, and I was telling him not to worry. These two journalists had slagged it off, so I looked them up, and they’d both written travel books. One had sold 700 copies, the other had sold 1,200. I said to Karl, ‘That’s why they don’t like you.’ It’s a similar thing with Chris Martin. I know Chris, and he’s genuinely the nicest person I’ve ever met, and he does sometimes take [any criticism he gets] to heart, which I just find odd. I say to him, ‘Look, it’s because you’re in the biggest band in the world.’ People might doubt his sincerity [with his charity work], but he’s entirely sincere; he genuinely worries about these things. This is no insult, but he’s rather like Derek in that way; he sees something, and he just cannot bear to not help that person. I find it odd the way you see people on Twitter or some snidey columnist saying, ‘Oh my god, don’t tell me Coldplay are bringing out another album!’ You think: ‘That doesn’t affect you! You don’t have to listen to it!’”

May 3, 201412 yr Wasn't Chris on Extras a few years ago? They get on really well and it's great to see Chris having great friends. I think it was Ricky Gervais that once tweeted: "I like Jesus because he is kind to the weak and poor and loves you whatever type of person you are. Same as Chris Martin off Coldplay."
May 4, 201412 yr Author ^ Yeah its a work of genius. Fix You made the last episode of the first season so emotional. Its just awesome when two of your favorite people are great friends!
