Coldplay frontman Chris Martin has revealed that people often mistake him for singer James Blunt or an insurance salesman.

The singer said a woman who works next door to the band's Bakery recording studios in London is convinced that he is a door-to-door salesman.

“She asked me the other day if I was in insurance,” he told XFM. “And if it’s not insurance or a lawyer, it’s another singer.

“The other ones I get are James Morrison and James Blunt and I always say, 'Yep!' because you should never disappoint somebody.”

Martin joked that he would rather be confused for Kings of Leon frontman Caleb Followill.

“If I could sing like that I’d be massive,” he said.

As previously reported on Gigwise, Martin was spotted in London yesterday (January 29th) wearing an armband with the name of US president Barack Obama.
