COLDPLAY frontman CHRIS MARTIN is desperate to see presidential hopeful BARACK OBAMA win the race to the White House - claiming it would completely transform America's global image.
The Yellow hitmaker is rooting for the recently crowned democratic party leader to land the role as the U.S.'s next president, and first black president, insisting it would boost the nation's flailing image as a world superpower.
And the singer is keen to see the U.S. return to its former glowing reputation as a well-run country - because he is a huge fan of the American people.
He tells U.S. magazine Rolling Stone, "If Obama was to be president, it would immediately change the whole outside world's opinion of America overnight.
"America's public image at the moment is really bad. And it's a bummer, because over half of Americans are the coolest people on the planet. But they've been so misrepresented."
The British musician is married to American actress Gwyneth Paltrow, who is the mother of his children, Apple, four, and Moses, two.
