She stole the Super Bowl half-time show from its headliners – now Beyoncé has been revealed to have let Coldplay’s Chris Martin down in the studio as well.
A preview of Martin’s upcoming interview in Rolling Stone reveals that the Coldplay singer once presented a song called Hook Up to Beyoncé and her producer Stargate – only to have it politely refused.
Beyoncé turned the song down, Martin said, “in the sweetest possible way: She told me, ‘I really like you – but this is awful.
’” But after the false start, Beyoncé went on to collaborate with Coldplay on Hymn for the Weekend, a single from their new album A Head Full of Dreams – not necessarily a great song, but by no means awful.
