Chris Martin has revealed that he only eats one meal a day after being inspired by Bruce Springsteen.
The Coldplay frontman, 46, stops eating at 4pm every day, which means he skips dinner, after seeing that the singer, 73, was “even more fit” than he was on last year.
Chris said on the Conan O’Brien Needs A Friend podcast: “I actually don’t eat dinner anymore.” I stop eating at four and I learned that when I had lunch with Bruce Springsteen.
‘I was lucky enough to go there for lunch the day after we played Philadelphia last year. I was on a very strict diet anyway.
‘But I was like, ‘Bruce looks even fitter than me’ and Patti (Bruce’s wife) said he only eats one meal a day. I was like, ‘Okay, here we go. That is my next challenge.
Diet: Chris Martin has revealed that he only eats one meal a day after being inspired by Bruce Springsteen
Inspiration: The Coldplay frontman, 46, stops eating at 4pm every day, which means he skips dinner, after seeing that the singer, 73, was “even fitter” than him last year.
Chris joked that his only meal of the day is “buffalo flank with steroid sauce.”
In 2021, the singer admitted that he had only cooked twice in the previous 10 years, setting the kitchen on fire both times.
He told BBC Radio 2: ‘I’m not a great cook. I have cooked twice in the last 10 years and both times the Fire Brigade came and I would like to say hello to the North London Fire Department who have twice saved me. The second time they came and said ‘have you been cooking again?’
When asked what he burned, he admitted, ‘Um, er, pasta and toast because I said I’d make dinner, but then I got distracted and started working on a song and then forgot about it until, anyway!’
In 2016, Chris revealed that he was following the 6:1 diet, where he ate six days a week but fasted on the seventh day by drinking water.
He told Fresh 102.7: ‘I fast once a week, yes, one day a week.
“This guy told me, ‘Try not eating for a day, it’ll make your body feel healthier,’ and I did and found I could sing a little better, and I was also very grateful for the food.”
Chris celebrated his 46th birthday earlier this month, with ex-wife Gwyneth Paltrow, 50, calling him the “sweetest father and friend” on his birthday.

The GOOP founder was seen wearing little makeup and her nerdy glasses as she leaned her head against Chris Martin in what appeared to be a parking lot.
The Oscar winner wished her ex-spouse, from whom she “consciously separated” in 2014, a happy 46th birthday.
And the Shakespeare In Love star gushed about her old flame, whom she was married to from 2003 to 2016.
“Happy birthday to the sweetest father and friend ❤️ we love you cajm,” he captioned the photo.
The stars also have two children together: Apple, 18, and Moses, 16.
In March 2014, the couple broke up.
Paltrow and Martin shocked fans when they announced they were splitting up in a post on the GOOP website titled ‘Conscious Unlinking’.
“It is with hearts heavy with sadness that we have decided to part ways,” the couple wrote.
But since that split they seem to have become close friends, even vacationing together with her new husband Brad Falchuk and his constant love, Dakota Johnson, who is the daughter of Melanie Griffith and Don Johnson.
In 2019, Gwyneth said that she and Chris were always meant to be together.

The Duets actress told the Evening Standard: “We were apart for a year before we announced we were splitting up.”
“We kept it very secret, and at the time I asked adult friends with divorced parents what they remembered.
‘There was this resonant theme: “It was really hard because for the first two years my parents didn’t talk. It was horrible for a while” or “My parents hated each other.”
And I thought, “I’d really love to skip that part.” These children felt that they were constantly betraying one parent by being with the other.
