Kids Give Coldplay's Speech An Extra Boost At iHeartRadio Music Awards

Chris Martin left the stage breathless after his iHeartRadio Music Awards performance with The Chainsmokers, but the Coldplay singer still had energy for a good prank.

Coldplay won Best Tour at Sunday’s show, and it turned out Martin was the only member there to accept the award. Instead of taking the stage solo, Martin brought up three kids ― who performed during Katy Perry’s opening number ― to give his speech.

“Hello, we are Coldplay,” one child announced, before Martin brought her a chair to stand on.

”Thank you so much for this award,” she continued. “Three of us are still looking good and feeling great. You wouldn’t believe it, but we are in our late 30s.”

“If it wasn’t for this one weird-looking guy,” she added, gesturing to Martin, “we would give One Direction some good competition.”

These kids are the best partners in crime Martin could’ve asked for, and it looks like they’ll be partying the night away with him, as well.

“Thank you. Now we are going to party hard,” Kid Coldplay concluded.

Maybe Chris Martin will show them some moshing skills. Watch the hilarious speech below.
