Gwyneth Paltrow 'gets Girls Aloud to gig with Coldplay by singing to Cheryl Cole'

Actress and husband Chris Martin serenade singer

Coldplay's Chris Martin married Gwyneth Paltrow five years ago

Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin are said to have sung to Cheryl Cole in a bid to secure Girls Aloud as support for Coldplay.  

The couple were trying to convince the star and her bandmates to join Coldplay during their concerts at Wembley Stadium in September.

Cheryl, 25, Sarah Harding, 26, Kimberley Walsh, 27, Nicola Roberts, 23, and Nadine Coyle, 23, were apparently stunned that Chris was so keen.

‘The girls were buzzing to get a personal call from Chris,’ a source tells The Sun. ‘They never thought he would be such a big fan.

‘Chris roped in his missus to give Cheryl an X-Factor-style sing-song. Gwyn belted out the girls’ hit single down the phone with Chris joining in.’
