Coldplay's Chris Martin tells crowd to get off phones - unless on Grindr
""My final request for this one song, and after that you can do whatever you like, please for this one song, consider having no phones, no cameras, no filming, no tweeting, no Snapchatting, no Instagram, no TikTok, no FitBit-ing, no Tinder, no Grindr." And then, because he is an ally, Martin conceded that actually, the gay networking app that is generally used for gay and bisexual men to, ahem, connect, should be allowed through the net. "Well, keep Grindr, but everything else has to go, okay?""
"@metroentertainment Now is not to time to check your matches 😭 We had an amazing night watching @coldplay from the @Emirates box 🔥 An unforgettable experience. #flybetter #emiratesuk #coldplay #coldplaywembley #coldplaykisscam ♬ original sound - Metro Entertainment And, because this is the weirdest timeline, the official Grindr account commented: "Hosting in the bathroom at the Coldplay show." Another TikTok account joked about the generally heterosexual fanbase of the British band, writing: "No one reacted to 'No Grindr'. The audience is so straight haha." Another joked: "Grindr at Coldplay? They're all watching Madonna." It's also not, bizarrely, the first time Chris Martin and Grindr have appeared in the same headline."
Chris Martin asked the Wembley Stadium audience to put away phones and social apps for one song, listing Snapchat, Instagram, TikTok, FitBit, Tinder and Grindr among them. He then exempted Grindr, saying attendees could keep it open while everything else should be put away. The moment was captured in a Metro Entertainment TikTok post with a caption about checking matches from the Emirates box. The official Grindr account and several TikTok users reacted with humorous comments about Grindr use at a Coldplay show. The exchange echoed Martin's 2016 remark about using Grindr after his split from Gwyneth Paltrow.
