MARTIN'S PRAISE FOR LEWIS

COLDPLAY rocker CHRIS MARTIN loves British female pop stars - he can't stop gushing about LEONA LEWIS and U.K. girlband GIRLS ALOUD.

CHRIS MARTIN and LEONA LEWIS

The rocker, who is married to Hollywood actress Gwyneth Paltrow, adores the singers - and is especially blown away by Lewis' powerful voice.

He tells British newspaper the Daily Mirror, "Leona is phenomenal. She is world class, that girl. We saw her singing in L.A. - she's as good as anybody and I've got nothing but respect for her."

And Martin's admiration doesn't stop at Lewis - he has nothing but praise for Girls Aloud, who are supporting the band on their forthcoming U.K. stadium dates next year (09).

He adds, "Girls Aloud are my favourite girls in the world, aside from my wife and daughter, of course! But they definitely come third to eighth.

"I chose them for the tour because I was pretty sure if people knew they were doing a gig with us they'd think that was great. I'm definitely thinking about doing a cover of a Girls Aloud song."
