CHRIS MARTIN - APPLE MARTIN LOVES U2

CHRIS MARTIN and GWYNETH PALTROW's baby daughter APPLE has turned her back on her father's music - she's a fan of Irish rockers U2 instead.

But the COLDPLAY frontman is happy with his offspring's taste in music, he introduced her to BONO's singing before Apple was born in May (04).

He explains, "U2's THE UNFORGETTABLE FIRE is one of the first songs I played to my unborn baby."

But politically-minded Martin says the pair are fans of U2 frontman Bono's charity work as well as his music: "While everyone else is swearing at GEORGE W BUSH, Bono is the one who rubs Bush's back and gets a billion dollars for Africa."
