F1 world champion Jenson Button [pictured] knows plenty of good tracks but he was taken aback when a confused fan recently mixed him up with Chris Martin. "I had an American come up to me at the Heathrow airport, a few months back saying that she and her family are big fans of mine," the Briton said in a light-hearted moment at the rain-hit Japanese Grand Prix.
"After I thanked her saying I did not know that Formula One was so big in America, she said they've got all my records and all my albums." Button added. On being asked about his reply to it he added, "I said, Fantastic. you think I'm Chris Martin, don't you? and she exclaimed 'Are you not?' And I said ' No, I am Jenson Button. I race in Formula One cars'."
Meanwhile, if you're a fan of X-Factor you will probably know by now that One Direction sang Coldplay's Viva la Vida in the first of the live finals on television. If you can bear the show and have the guts to click on the video, you can watch their performance here at the Coldplay forum. As always when it comes to X-Factor shows... health warning not included!
