Chris Martin is not so great in the kitchen. His wife, Gwyneth Paltrow, speaking with BBC's cooking show, Jamie and Jimmy's Food Fight Club, said that he has called emergency personnel two times, due to fires.
"He has twice cooked a meal and this is not a joke, both times the fire brigade came. I swear on my life - both times."
The London Fire Brigade, eager to help the klutzy cook, subsequently offered a free home fire safety visit. A rep for the Brigade used the opportunity to address the public regarding safety in the kitchen:
"People often think that fires only happen to vulnerable people but young professionals have a quarter of all house fires in London. Chris will know that fires can develop almost at the 'Speed of Sound' so it's important that when they're cooking, people don't have 'A Rush of Blood to the Head' and leave their cooking unattended causing a lot of 'Trouble'," the pun happy rep stated.
