Chris Martin covers up during grocery run in Malibu... as Coldplay wins Best Rock trophy at MTV Europe Music Awards
He has fronted one of the best-selling, and acclaimed, rock bands since the turn of the millennium.
And on Sunday Coldplay, and frontman Chris Martin, took home another accolade by winning the Best Rock award at the MTV Europe Music Awards.
With the COVID-19 pandemic still raging, Martin accepted the honor, via video, from his adopted home in Malibu, California, where he later stepped out for a grocery run.

The British native looked nearly unrecognizable for his walk to the local store on yet another sunny Southern California day, although with a slight chill of autumn in the air.
He covered up with a protective mask, in accordance to health and safety protocols, and a white and green baseball cap.
The singer and multi-instrumentalist kept it weekend casual in black sweatpants with a white sweater and black high-top sneakers.
Martin also had a green scarf around his neck as he carried a bag full of groceries and headed back to his nearby home.
