Chris Martin Putting Himself Up for Auction

Chris Martin, the frontman of music group Coldplay, is putting himself up for auction. The man has confirmed he will play an exclusive one-song gig in the living room of a child at the Canonbury Primary School in North London.

Not without reason but Chris agreed to play the show because Coldplay's business manager, Paul Makin, is in fact a parent at the school. Thus, the exclusive one-off performance by him has been auctioned for £5,000 (approximately $10,000).

Moreover, it is reported that the un-named parent stumped up £5,000 for the concert after bidding began at £400, quickly rising into the thousands. Was presided over by Conservative MP and Islington, London resident Boris Johnson, money raised from the auction will benefit a new resource and IT center.
