Fake humilty is worse than arrogance and chris Martin reeks of it. At least rap stars let their ego shine; Chris is all "who me, no, it hasn't gone to my head" meanwhile he lives a life so far removed from reality it might as well be a different species.
Martin had this to say to the Sun about getting Rihanna to sing on his rock opera (yeah, him and Fucked Up) Mylo Xyloto , the title alone makes me gag: "The album is designed as a whole piece. It has boy and girl lead characters and top of our list for the girl part was Rihanna, but it took a while to pluck up the courage to ask her. We did a show in Las Vegas and I met her and said, 'Do you think there's any chance?' I was very Hugh Grant-like and spluttering about it."
"She has such an amazing voice and it's so different to mine. When the vocal happened I thought 'Wow, you sound different' but I think that's also because she was singing a different song to what we are used to hearing from her and it is written by a bloke from Devon."
Yeah, that's it… a bloke from Devon.
What a wanker.
