Brazilian singer recalled the advice he received from the British rockstar when he met him, in an unexpected event, earlier this year
Bruno Gadiol remembered a very random encounter with Chris Martinthe vocalist of Coldplayduring the band’s tour of Brazil, in March 2023. Talking about their album Young The Rolling Stone Brazilthe Brazilian singer recalled advice he received from the British artist at an event after one of the group’s performances in São Paulo.
“There’s nothing that isn’t me on this album, both musically, like the cover or boring Bruno, who kept saying not to much until he got to this place that is true to him”, explained Bruno.
“It’s something I even heard from Chris Martin. I had the pleasure of meeting him with some people – it was a tour that had about 30 people and then I went to talk to him, now when he came to Brazil.”
Did you find it random? Bruno too. According to the singer, he was invited to an after one of Coldplay’s concerts in São Paulo. At first, he was skeptical that the band could be there. And it was, even without understanding.
“And then they told me: ‘There’s this after and he’s coming, he just wants to meet people. He likes to connect with people in the places he goes’. Then about two minutes passed and he arrived. I thought: ‘let’s act naturally [risos]let’s pretend it’s normal Chris Martin here’.”
Bruno, who was accompanied by some friends, ended up being called to sit in the circle of Chris Martin, who was talking to Sandy (who made a special appearance at the Coldplay show during the Brazilian tour) at the time. According to the singer, Chris would have gone from “superstar” to “normal person” in a matter of minutes.
“Because he has a lot of energy, he’s very calm. But for me it didn’t sink in. It’s hard to say what I was feeling, it’s like releasing an album.”
In the conversation, Bruno says that they talked about the artistic experience and that he didn’t miss the chance to get some tips from Martin:
“I said, ‘Dude, do you believe in the Law of Attraction?’ We started talking about it and I wanted to know about him, he’s a guy who’s selling out stadiums all over the world, I don’t know how many nights in São Paulo alone… And then I told him about my story, my sexuality and having I was afraid of being who I was. And he said: ‘look, what I can tell you is that when we do our truth, there’s no way to go wrong, you know?'”
For Bruno, who did not take pictures of the day, at the request of Chris Martin’s production, the memory is what he carries with him, both the meeting and the advice he received from the British rockstar. That and a bottom, which he got as a gift from his idol:
“The memory I have of the day is this bottom. And then I wore it on my birthday, which was the day the album was released. I don’t know, for luck [risos].”
