Coldplay have changed the lyrics in tribute to the victims of Hurricane Katrina - Sept 05
Coldplay have changed the lyrics to one of their biggest hits in tribute to the victims of Hurricane Katrina. The award-winning band, fronted by Chris Martin, paid their respects to those whose lives have been ruined by the devastating storm during a concert in New York. Chris, who is married to Hollywood actress Gwyneth Paltrow, dedicated the song ’Politik’ to "those on the Gulf Coast who have lost everything." He then sang: "Manhattan, Brooklyn, Bronx and Queens/ All send your love to New Orleans."

Coldplay are not the only stars using their music to support those affected by Hurricane Katrina. Yesterday (07.09.05), it was revealed Michael Jackson is recording a charity record to raise much-needed funds for the survivors and the recovery effort. The pop superstar is hoping to recruit a galaxy of stars to join him on new track ’From The Bottom Of My Heart’. The singer said: "I will be reaching out to others within the music industry, to join me in helping to bring relief and hope to these resilient people who have lost everything."

Gwyneth and Chris are living in fear - August 05
Gwyneth Paltrow and husband Chris Martin are living in fear after burglars attempted to break into their London home. The thieves tried to forcibly enter the star couple’s London home, which they share with baby daughter Apple, but luckily were foiled by a top-of-the-range security system.

A source revealed: "Gwyneth and Chris had an attempted break-in but luckily their hi-tech security stopped the robbers." The incident in London’s trendy Belsize Park area has prompted some of Gwyneth and Chris’ star neighbours, which include Madonna and actress Helena Bonham-Carter, to start a Neighbourhood Watch scheme. British TV presenter Chris Evans has called for all residents to keep an eye on other’s properties and report anything suspicious to foil any potential burglars.
