Chris Martin's Emotional Moment During This Song May Show How He's Handling the Dakota Johnson Split
Dakota Johnson and Chris Martin's breakup has been on everyone's minds since the news broke. While we're still devastated at the end of one of our favorite celebrity couples, it seems we may not be the only ones. In a recent clip of Martin performing, he's gotten fans misty-eyed, and so many are now wondering how the breakup has affected him.
On June 19, the popular X account PopTingz shared a video from Coldplay's latest gig. They shared the video of Martin with the caption reading, 'During 'Sparks,' Chris Martin gets emotional, adding 'yes I will' after 'I won't let you down.''

Now, first things first: he didn't add anything. Per Genius, the lyrics in that part of the song go: 'But I won't let you down/ Oh, yeah, I will, yeah, I will, yes, I will.' So, no, he didn't add anything new to the song, but we can admit one thing: he does look more visibly emotional than other times he's sung this song live.
'Sparks' is one of Coldplay's most well-known songs, and it was a track from the band's debut album Parachutes, which was released in 2000. The song is about 'someone who tries to get someone to remember them again,' according to Genius.
Now, Martin is an emotional performer, but the timing of this after his breakup from Johnson, plus how visibly emotional he looked while performing, has made people wonder how he's handling the breakup. Along with that, his previous outing with an accessory meaning 'freedom,' has got speculation brewing on how he's handling it all behind closed doors.
For those who don't know, Johnson and Martin started dating in 2017 after being set up by mutual friends. They didn't confirm their relationship until a year later, but then, there was a rumor that they briefly broke up in the summer of 2019. However, they quickly reconciled, and they moved in together in 2021.
While we don't know the exact time they got engaged, many sources claim it was years ago, but the two weren't too eager to set a date. But the engagement became public at the beginning of 2025.
Sadly, Martin and Johnson seemingly called it quits for good in June 2025. A source spoke to The Sun about what led to their recent breakup, saying, 'They really tried to work through their issues but the age gap was often a problem and she'd expressed that she may want children in the future, whereas Chris is kind of done with that part of his life but they discussed it.'Best of SheKnows

Tyler Perry Slams $260M Sexual Assault Suit By ‘The Oval' Actor As A 'Scam'
A former longtime regular on Tyler Perry's White House drama The Oval is accusing the Madea star of sexual assault, sexual harassment and retaliation in a $260 million lawsuit — claims that Perry vehemently denies. 'Using his influence, Mr. Perry provided vulnerable men with acting positions, roles, show contracts, cars, and money,' a lawyer for Derek Dixon says of Perry's M.O. to their client and others in the 10-claim complaint filed June 13 in Los Angeles Superior Court. 'Once the object of his desire was hooked, Tyler Perry would then put them in fear of losing it all unless they engaged in Mr. Perry's perverted desire for sexual gratification. Mr. Perry would easily 'kill off' a character in a show of an actor who failed to indulge Perry's sexual fantasies.' More from Deadline Juror Tossed Out Of Sean 'Diddy' Combs Trial For Perceived 'Lying'; Judge Admonishes Defense For Claiming Racial Bias Judge Rejects Sean 'Diddy' Combs' Latest Motion For Mistrial In Sex-Trafficking Case — Update Kanye West's Very Short Visit To Sean "Diddy" Combs' Trial Proves More Photo-Op Than Support For Pal Invoking the names of 'Harvey Weinstein, Bill Cosby, R. Kelly, Sean 'P-Diddy' Combs, Kevin Spacey, Roger Ailes, and many others in the industry,' Dixon's action details how allegedly 'on multiple occasions, Mr. Perry sexually assaulted Mr. Dixon, including one instance where he forcibly pulled off Mr. Dixon's clothing, groped his buttocks, and attempted to force himself on Dixon.' In response, Perry's representatives call BS on Dixon and his accusations. 'This is an individual who got close to Tyler Perry for what now appears to be nothing more than setting up a scam,' said Matthew Boyd, attorney for the mogul and his TPS Production Services, LLC. 'But Tyler will not be shaken down, and we are confident these fabricated claims of harassment will fail.' Such claims of harassment by Dixon are very specific and widespread at the same time, it should be noted. For instance, at one point Dixon says Perry promised the actor that he had 'greenlit' the 'pilot that Perry knew Mr. Dixon had desperately wanted to produce.' The Oval vet says that even with a call from one of Perry's lawyers affirming that the pilot was moving ahead, the promise turned out to be empty. In a format reminiscent of the Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni lawsuits, text messages — some more suggestive than others — pepper the 46-page filing from L.A. attorney Jonathan J. Delshad. Included is at least one from an October 2020 trip the two and others took to the Bahamas, where Dixon claims Perry got loaded and assaulted him, again. The filing also notes that Perry supposedly repeatedly threatened 'that if Dixon ignored Perry or failed to engage with the sexual innuendos, Dixon's character would 'die' in the next season.' It goes on to add: 'Indeed, Dixon's character 'Dale' was shot four times in the chest at the end of his first season on The Oval and Perry always held this over Mr. Dixon's head, implying that 'Dale' would survive if Dixon kept Perry 'happy.'' According to Dixon, after he complained about Perry's alleged misconduct and 'Defendants did not make any investigation into the complaint and did not take any steps to prevent further harassment from occurring,' he 'had to quit his job working on the last season of The Oval.' Dixon and his attorneys claim that decision cost him around $400,000 in lost wages. 'Dixon did not want to be sexually harassed or be placed in danger of a sexual assault again,' the filing states as his reason for leaving the show and giving up the money. The Oval debuted on October 23, 2019, on BET, and saw its sixth season kick off on January 25 this year. A Ruthless spinoff premiered on BET+ on March 19, 2020.

‘How to Train Your Dragon' Leads Box Office With $37 Million; ‘Elio' Sinks to Pixar-Worst $21 Million Opening
A live-action remake triumphed decisively over original animation at the box office this weekend as Universal/DreamWorks' 'How to Train Your Dragon' held on to the No. 1 spot with a $37 million second weekend, easily clearing Disney/Pixar's 'Elio,' which has fallen to the worst opening weekend in Pixar history with just $21 million domestic and $35 million worldwide. Not only that, 'Elio' is opening in third place on the charts, falling behind the $30 million opening of Sony's R-rated horror legacyquel '28 Years Later.' A low start for Pixar's latest original film was expected given the performance of its last non-sequel, 'Elemental,' which started poorly yet stands as the highest grossing original film of the past five years with $154 million domestic and $496 million worldwide. But there had been hopes that 'Elio' could at least open closer to the $29.6 million opening of 'Elemental' despite the competition from 'How to Train Your Dragon.' The bright spot is that there's still a chance that 'Elio' could have as long legs as 'Elemental' given its very high audience scores, which include an A on CinemaScore, 4.5/5 on PostTrak, and Rotten Tomatoes scores of 85% critics and 91% audience. 'Elio' will also be the only animated film in theaters until Paramount's 'The Smurfs' arrives in mid-July so that gives it an even more fertile environment to draw in families, including perhaps some who opted to see 'Dragon' this weekend. Overseas, the film still has releases to come in China, Japan and Spain, with more kids getting out of school internationally in the coming weeks. But as it stands, 'Elio' would need to have legs as long as 'Elemental' just to reach $100 million in North America, let alone the $154 million of that film. It's a testament to how challenging it has been to drum up buzz for original family titles and how it takes overwhelming post-release word-of-mouth just to score a decent theatrical number. And while Disney and Pixar have gotten the most press on this front for their multiple mixed attempts at original releases — including Disney's flops 'Strange World' and 'Wish' — they aren't the only ones that have had to fight to make originality work. Illumination's sole original title of the last five years, 'Migration,' needed a month to turn its $17 million Christmas weekend opening into a $127.6 million domestic run and $300 million worldwide. Paramount's live-action/animated original hybrid 'IF' opened last year to $33.7 million for a $111 million domestic and $190 million global run. For 'Elio,' which carries a much larger $150 million budget, that's probably the best it can hope for. As for the rest of the charts, 'How to Train Your Dragon' added $53.5 million overseas along with its $37 million domestic total this weekend, bringing it to a 10-day total of $160.4 million domestic and $358 million worldwide. In second is '28 Years Later' with a $30 million domestic and $60 million worldwide opening, giving it the best opening ever for an R-rated zombie film. The legacyquel to the 2002 classic '28 Days Later' sees the director-writer team of Danny Boyle and Alex Garland reunite for what they hope to be a trilogy set in a dystopian future where the deadly Rage Virus has caused the collapsed U.K. to be quarantined from the rest of the world. With a $60 million budget, '28 Years Later' will be a summer success for Sony Pictures, and we will see in the theatrical run ahead — as well as this winter with the film's follow-up, 'The Bone Temple' — whether there's enough audience appetite for a third film to be greenlit. Critics have praised '28 Years Later' with an 89% Rotten Tomatoes score, while audience reception is somewhat less enthusiastic with a B on CinemaScore and a 65% RT score. Disney's 'Lilo & Stitch' is in fourth with $9.7 million, bringing its total to $386.7 million domestic and $910 million worldwide. In fifth is Paramount's 'Mission: Impossible — The Final Reckoning,' which has now reached $540 million worldwide after earning $6.5 million in its fifth weekend for a total of $178 million domestic. That's enough to pass the domestic run of 'Mission: Impossible — Dead Reckoning,' which made $172 million in 2023. Finally, A24's 'Materialists' sits just outside the top 5 with a $5.8 million second weekend, giving the $20 million romance drama from Celine Song a $23.9 million 10-day total.
