Coldplay frontman Chris Martin is disappointed his marriage to movie actress Gwyneth Paltrow has ruined the novelty of meeting Hollywood superstars.

The 28-year-old Fix You singer blames his Oscar-winning wife for making his once showbiz idols seem boring and ordinary.

He says: "After being with Gwyn I've realised everyone is human. We really build people up as if they are from Mars. Hollywood seems as accessible as Mars.

"When I started meeting celebrities it was depressing because you can't believe in the mythology of people any more."
