Gwyneth Paltrow has compared her husband Chris Martin to Pablo Picasso. The Glee actress says her Coldplay frontman husband - whom she married in 2003 - is a "musical genius" and asking him for tips on singing would be like approaching the legendary Spanish artist for painting advice.

"[He's] a musical genius. It's like living with Picasso and being like, 'Should I make a little something-something?'"

While Chris is a notoriously private person and often refuses to be photographed with his spouse, Gwyneth - who has two kids Apple, seven and five-year-old Moses with him - says she can understand why he doesn't want to be known as part of a celebrity couple.

"He makes music for his fans, and he doesn't want people to conjure a lame famous couple when they're getting into his music. I get it."
