Coldplay’s Chris Martin reveals he only eats one meal a day because of Bruce Springsteen
Chris Martin has revealed that he only eats one meal a day after being inspired by Bruce Springsteen.
The Coldplay frontman, 46, stops eating at 4pm every day, meaning he skips dinner, after seeing the singer, 73, in ‘even more shape’ than he was last year.
Chris said on the Conan O’Brien Needs A Friend podcast, “I’m actually not eating anymore. I stop eating at four and I learned that from having lunch with Bruce Springsteen.
“I was lucky enough to go there for lunch the day after we played in Philadelphia last year. I was on a very strict diet anyway.
“But I was like, ‘Bruce looks even fitter than me,’ and Patti.
” [Bruce’s wife] said he only eats one meal a day. I was like, ‘Well, here we go. That’s my next challenge.’

Chris joked that his only meal of the day is “buffalo flank with steroid sauce.”
In 2021, the singer admitted that he had only cooked twice in the last 10 years – and set fire to the kitchen both times.
He told BBC Radio 2: ‘I’m not a great cook. I have cooked twice in the last 10 years and both times the fire brigade came and I would like to send a shout out to the north London fire brigade who saved me twice. The second time they came and said ‘have you been cooking again?
‘
When asked what he was burning, he admitted, “Um, uh, pasta and toast because I said I’d cook dinner, but then I got distracted and went to work on a song and then forgot!”
In 2016, Chris revealed that he followed the 6:1 diet, where he ate six days a week but fasted on the seventh day by drinking water.
He told Fresh 102.7, “I fast once a week, yes, one day a week.
“This guy said to me, ‘Try not to eat for a day, it will make your body feel healthier,’ and I did and I noticed I could sing a little bit better, and I was so thankful for food too.”
Chris celebrated his 46th birthday earlier this month, along with his ex-wife Gwyneth Paltrow, 50, calling him the “dearest father and friend” on his birthday.

The GOOP founder was seen with little makeup on and her nerd glasses on as she leaned her head on Chris Martin in what appeared to be a parking lot.
The Oscar winner wished her ex-husband, from whom she was “consciously disconnected” in 2014, a happy 46th birthday.
And the Shakespeare In Love star gushed about her former flame who she was married to from 2003 to 2016.
“Happy birthday to the dearest dad and friend❤️we love you cajm,” she said in her caption.
The stars also have two children together: 18-year-old Apple and 16-year-old Moses.
In March 2014, the couple separated.
Paltrow and Martin shocked fans when they announced they were breaking up in a post on the GOOP website titled “Conscious Uncoupling.”
“It is with hearts full of sadness that we have decided to part ways,” the couple wrote.
But since that split, they seem to have become good friends, even vacationing with her new husband Brad Falchuk and his steady love, Dakota Johnson, the daughter of Melanie Griffith and Don Johnson.
In 2019, Gwyneth said she and Chris were always meant for each other.

The Duets actress told the Evening Standard: ‘We were separated for a year before we announced we were divorced.
“We kept it very quiet, and at the time I asked adult friends with divorced parents what they remembered.
“There was a resonant theme: ‘It was really hard because my parents didn’t speak to each other for the first two years. It was horrible for a while,’ or ‘My parents hated each other.’
And I thought, “I’d really like to skip that part.” Those kids felt like they were constantly betraying one parent by being with the other.’
