Coldplay frontman Chris Martin says One Direction is a "brilliant" pop group and admits he is a big fan of their music.
The Coldplay frontman Martin described the "Kiss You" hitmakers as "brilliant" and admits he is a big fan of the pop group, comprised of Niall Horan, Zayn Malik, Liam Payne, Harry Styles and Louis Tomlinson.
"I'm saying One Direction are brilliant. I'm not kidding," contactmusic.com quoted him as saying.
This isn't the first time that Martin has gushed about his love for the teen heartthrobs, as he sung the band's debut hit, "What Makes You Beautiful" during a concert in Florida two years ago and recently told a contestant that they should use Styles as inspiration during his appearance on "The Voice" US earlier this month.
