Jay-Z: 'I want to move like Chris Martin'

Jay-Z has reportedly stated that he is considering learning yoga from Chris Martin after being impressed with the Coldplay frontman's flexibility on stage.

The 'Run This Town' rapper apparently admitted that he wants to be as agile as the singer, having witnessed Martin's concert workouts each night when they toured the UK together.

Contactmusic quotes Jay-Z as saying: "Chris hasn't tried to get me to do yoga yet but I am close to doing it. I'm envious of what he can do on stage. Watching him is amazing, he can really move.

"I want to be able to move like that, get my leg behind my ear, things like that."

However, the hip-hop star added that he would have to get in shape before attempting any yoga exercises.

"I try and work out four times a week - cardio, weights, push ups, pull ups - but I haven't for a month because of vacation and touring."
