Chris Martin has admitted that tweets about his surprise appearances at Glastonbury Festival "hurt" him and confirmed Coldplay won't play at next year's festival in Somerset.

The frontman made two surprise appearances at Glastonbury Festival 2019, performing 'Blinded By Your Grace Pt. 1' with Stormzy and joined Kylie Minogue for 'Can't Get You Out Of My Head' during her legend slot.

In an interview with the BBC's Colin Paterson, aired on BBC Breakfast and Radio 5 Live on Thursday (November 21), the pair discussed Coldplay's upcoming double album 'Everyday Life'.

The frontman, born in the West Country, said the British band will not tour in support of the album but instead perform two shows in the Jordanian capital Amman that will be streamed live on YouTube.

Glastonbury 2020 won't include Coldplay



When asked if he or Coldplay will perform at the festival next year, Chris Martin simply said, "No."

Pressed for an explanation, Chris Martin continued: "I did pop up on stage last year and I loved doing so.

"Then I saw a tweet afterwards which said 'you can always rely on him to come on in a tracksuit and ruin everything'.

"So I was like you know what, a), I should work on my trousers, and b), I shouldn't be online and c), maybe just go and watch Glastonbury for a year or so."

Asked if the tweet affected him, he replied: "Sometimes these things hurt me because I'm human."

Coldplay 2020 tour?

Chris Martin also confirmed the band are taking time out of international touring so they can see how they can make the events carbon neutral.

"Our next tour will be the best possible version of a tour like that environmentally," Martin said. "We would be disappointed if it's not carbon neural.

"We've done a lot of big tours at this point. How do we turn it around so it's no so much taking as giving?"
