Coldplay frontman Chris Martin says he had to reconcile his “very homophobic” past before coming to terms with his own sexuality. As a young teen, Martin was sent to an all-boys boarding school and recalls confronting “some stuff with religion and sexuality and everything” that informed his identity. “When I went to boarding school, I walked a bit funny and I bounced a bit and I was also very homophobic because I was like, ‘If I’m gay, I’m completely fucked for eternity’ and I was a kid discovering sexuality,” he said. “[I had] a bit more exposure to the world, thinking, ‘A lot of my heroes are gay,’ or whatever. “And it’s trying to be empathetic and it’s a bit unfiltered.”For the full interview, head over to Rolling Stone.
