We thought that between the two of them Gwyneth Paltrow and husband Chris Martin had about as much of a sense of humor as Droopy Dog, but apparently we were wrong. Martin at least can crack a joke. It just takes his pants falling down in front of thousands of people.

So there he was on stage in front of 7,000 unfortunate, misguided halfwits (otherwise known as Coldplay fans) in Anaheim, California, when gravity got the better of his trousers. What caused this "wardrobe malfunction," as the San Francisco Chronicle so drolly called it, we do not know. Perhaps his belt just started thinking, "Damn, I can't stand being anywhere near this whiny douche, even if there is a layer of fabric between me and his skin. I'm getting the hell out of here." And how exactly did Chris Martin resist his urge to engage his fallen pants in a wrestling match and bellow, "You'll never work in this town again"? His patented, funnier than a kitten getting run over by a big rig brand of humor (see, cause that's not funny at all). He turned to Gwyneth, who was likely stifling her Coldplay-induced yawns backstage, and said, "You can only really get away with this if you've got a butt as good as Brad Pitt's." To which Gwyn attempted a giggle, but since she hasn't cracked so much as a smile since 1992, her face transformed in something that would have made the makeup team from Mask proud and Martin had to turn back to the audience and improvise a falling-pants ditty. He sang, "It should never have come to pass that you caught sight of my ass." He continued his comedy routine after the show, explaining, "I realized I had to make a joke of it. Luckily it went down pretty well -- just like my pants!" Ho, ho! Surely no one will be able to call him an uptight, humorless prig now!

Gwyneth doesn't have any pants either! At MrSkin.com of course.
