Featured Replies

From 8 years ago. Very interesting story. He 'wouldn't make anything of himself', oh how that person had egg on his face!

Coldplay’s lead singer Chris Martin has reveal how revenge against a school bully was a “pretty sweet” dish.

 

 

Speaking to the Sun, the 30-year-old musician told of how he was picked on at the posh Dorset school Sherborne for being, in his own words, “a bit of a swot” that preferred playing the piano and guitar over sports.

 

 

While out and about with his Hollywood beauty of a wife Gwyneth Paltrow, who he married three years ago and has two children with, Chris happened to see the boy who made his school days “hell” and couldn’t resist a bit of revenge.

 

“He was a bully who always said I wouldn’t make anything of myself,” he added.

But the Yellow singer left his former school pal red-faced. “I had great pleasure asking what he was up to now. He wasn’t up to much. Then I turned around and said, ‘This is my wife Gwyneth.’ His face dropped and he looked really embarrassed.”

 

 

“It was a proud moment. I’m not one to get my own back and look for revenge — but that was pretty sweet,” a smug Chris told the newspaper.

 

 

And can you deny the man a bit of sweet revenge? He may have been the school geek but with 8.3 million copies of Coldplay’s last album sold in 2005, Chris and his Hollywood wife are laughing all the way to the bank.

Great story [emoji3][emoji3][emoji3]

I thought something was wrong with this story. Maybe it was the "Speaking to The Sun" part..:confused: I don't think Chris was ever used to speak to such papers!! the whole story seems made up

Maybe he was literally speaking to the Sun [emoji274] [emoji274][emoji274] and someone overheard? Lol. Clearly more investigation is needed!

The story might be true because: 1)Just about everyone in the music business has been cautioned in the same way 2) Chris' early musical influences were questionable in a lot of peoples' eyes and also I think I heard somewhere that he's unable to read music 3) Coldplay as a concept is really hard to describe to people until you hear it (in lieu of providing remote comparisons)

 

He would have been good as a cranky music teacher if he hadn't done music professionally.The Game of Thrones spoof would have actually made a decent musical. He could easily have directed school musicals.

 

But the more current concern is, how can Coldplay stay relevant,not how many ppl might have told them they wouldn't make it. They're putting out good teaser stuff so I don't think they have to worry.

 

P.S. I am faithfully against animal cruelty.

If a person were starving, then having egg on one's face wouldn't be a bad thing. Except I'm personally turning sort of Vegan, so I don't consume that many eggs.

 

Sometimes, I dream about cheese.

Chris Martin real life version of "Deal With It" meme. This is what I can hear and visualize right now: Chris Martin - I'm the lead singer of one of the biggest rock bands in the world and this is MY WIFE. TUN-TI-TUN-TI-TUN-TARAM-RAM :cool: :cool::cool: How you doing? :cool: Background music: Ohhhh Ohhh Ohhhh. TURN DOWN FOR WHAT! TURN DOWN FOR WHAT! Jonny Buckland, Guy Berryman, Gwyneth Paltrow, Will Champion, Jay-Z and Beyonce heads appears on top of the body of random hip hop fans. Background music: TURN DOWN FOR WHAT. Chris Martin : :wink3:

 

PS: Sorry for my terrible english :(
