Chris Martin competes with Gwyneth Paltrow's ex-fiance Brad Pitt.

The Coldplay frontman admits he finds it hard to deal with the thought that
Gwyneth - who is mother to his two children, Apple, four, and two-year-old
Moses - used to be engaged to one of Hollywood's hottest heartthrobs.
He said: "I always felt it would be great to be with a very powerful woman
because it would keep you in your place. Being married to someone very
successful and very powerful basically keeps you hungry to improve.
"You've got to be hungry. If your wife went out with Brad Pitt, you'd want
to prove yourself, you know what I mean?"
Chris also revealed he only became confident with the opposite sex when he
hit his twenties.
He said: "I had a tricky time with girls until I was, like, 21. I got
trapped in the friendship tip many, many times. It was like, 'I need to be a
rock star because this is no good. I want to be the guy that everybody
bangs.' "
