Coldplay frontman Chris Martin showed his continued support for the new US president in London today (January 28th).

The singer was pictured wearing a handmade Barack Obama armband as he left the BBC Radio 1 studios.

Martin, who performed on the radio station this afternoon, began wearing the badge on his right arm last year during the new president's election campaign.

In an interview before Mr Obama's election victory, Martin said he thought the politician had the ability to “immediately change the whole outside world's opinion of America overnight”.

He was one of a host of musicians who voiced their support for the new president. CLICK HERE to see all of his followers.
