Chris Martin Tinnitus: Coldplay Star’s Tinnitus, The singer said he had suffered from the condition, which can leave people with a buzzing or ringing in their ears, for about ten years.  He’s now started wearing protection for his ears.

Chris, who formed Coldplay in 1996, said: “I wish I’d thought about it earlier. Now we always use moulded filter plugs, or in-ear monitors to try and protect our ears.

“You can use industrial headphones, but that looks strange at a party.”

The star has backed a campaign by Action On Hearing Loss about the potential danger of listening to loud music.

Rapper-turned-actor Plan B is also involved and said his tinnitus is so bad he is forced to sleep with earplugs.

He said: “There’s no doubt it’s been caused by years of being on stage and subjected to very loud decibels of music.”
