Songstress Rita Ora has opened up about spending time with Coldplay on tour and confessed that they're "the most humble human beings".

Chatting to Radio 1 this week, she admitted that she was surprised by frontman Chris Martin's modest nature and they had an entertaining interaction backstage when she supported them on the road a while ago:

"On one of my first tours I supported Coldplay and they were doing amazing, massive tours as usual. We were just hanging out and then we went to catering to eat some food before the show. Chris didn't have his pass. I remember, they didn't let him in to catering because he didn't have his pass. And instead of him saying, 'Do you know that this is me? This is who I am,' he said, 'Rita has got her pass - can I get in with her?'"

"It's funny because it's Chris and there's this whole thing... but that's why we love him and the boys. I thought it was a joke. But no, they're the best those boys, they're the most humble human beings."
