Take That made Coldplay's Chris Martin question his sexual orientation

Coldplay's Chris Martin has revealed that Take That caused him to ask himself if he was gay. 

The 'Fix You' singer-songwriter explained to The Sun newspaper that the "strapping men from Stoke or Manchester" were so appealing to him as a youngster they made him question his sexuality. Talking about the most influential bands of his childhood and teen years, Martin said:

"U2 and five handsome, strapping men from Stoke and Manchester. I'm not afraid to admit it, they made me ask the question 'Am I gay?'" 

The band's new album, 'Mylo Xyloto', was released in the UK yesterday and you can check out their collaboration with Rihanna on 'Princess of China' below:
