Chris Martin Admits %26#39;I Had a Tricky Time With Girls%26#39; | Chris Martin

Sure, Chris Martin is a big rock star married to one of Hollywood’s top A-list actresses, but he was never a ladies man, he admits.

“I had a tricky time with girls until I was, like, 21,” the Coldplay frontman, 31, who married Oscar-winner in 2003, reveals in the latest issue of Rolling Stone.

“I got trapped in the friendship trap many, many times,” he says. “It was like, ‘I need to be a rock star because this is no good: Being the kind of guy that everybody likes but no one wants to %26#91;sleep with%26#93;.’ ”

Instead, he wanted “to be the guy that everybody” has sex with.

“I always felt it would be great to be with a very powerful woman because it would keep you in your place,” he says. “Being married to someone very successful and very powerful basically keep you hungry to improve.”

It’s that very hunger that drives the musician in his career, as well as in his relationship - with the exception of one small issue. As he says: “You’ve got to be hungry. If your wife went out with , you’d want to prove yourself, you know what I mean?”
