Coldplay frontman Chris Martin has on the face of it claimed that a yellow journalism newspaper has helped him stay off drugs.
In a new interview, the singer revealed that alternatively of narcotics he had developed a fondness for tattoos.
"Getting tattooed is brilliant. I got a few done in my 30s and it is the topper buzz always - specially if you are married and can't take drugs because the Daily Mirror might rule out,� he said.
"I recommend getting a tattoo whether you are 70 or 12 - really, maybe not 12, I think that might be a bit too young."
As previously reported on Gigwise, Coldplay confirmed today (September 1st) that they will release a new EP at the end of the year.
