Chris Martin has bemoaned the lack of sex in his life because of his extensive touring with Coldplay.

The singer complained that the only thing he cannot get while on tour is "laid".

Asked in an interview what he can get in Britain that is not available in America, the singer responded: "Laid. Oh and maybe a Toffee Crisp."

Martin admitted that being a member of Coldplay had left him feeling lonely at times.

"There have been a few times when I have been on the Serpentine River in London where I have thought, 'I am going to ditch this pedalo and run away to Brighton'," he told The Times.

The band recently announced that they will be joined by Jay-Z for three stadium gigs next year.
