Chris Martin Considers Commercial Benefit Of Suicide

Coldplay frontman Chris Martin has a guaranteed method of ensuring the British band's forthcoming third album is a hit - killing himself. [thanks mimi]

Chris Martin, who is married to Gwyneth Paltrow and has a baby daughter, Apple - has no intention of committing suicide but admits he'd at least know X&Y would sell millions of copies.

Martin says, "I think the best thing for everyone would be if I died. It's the only way to save this album. It would add that necessary amount of tragedy.

"(But) I wouldn't do that because I have a daughter. But commercially it would be a great idea to blow my head off."
