Martin to give Alexa leg up into music biz

Chris Martin is helping Alexa Chung launch a music career.
The Coldplay star is believed to have met up with the 30-year-old model in New York last month, where she played him songs she had been working on and the 37-year-old singer - who split from wife Gwyneth Paltrow earlier this year - was impressed enough to offer to use his contacts to get her started.
