Have you ever ghosted someone by accident? And if so, has that someone been a mega-famous singer by the name of Chris Martin? Probably not, but Emily Blunt has… and she deeply regrets it.Two weeks ago, the lead singer of Coldplay stopped by The Ellen DeGeneres Show (weekdays at 3pm ET on CTV) to discuss a few very important matters, such as the band’s new album, and that fateful time John Krasinski and his wife, Emily Blunt, ignored his hilarious suggestion to make A Quiet Place: The Musical. When Ellen posted the clip to Instagram (because who better to help spill the celebrity tea than her), Krasinski was quick to throw his wife — who, luckily for him, doesn’t have Instagram or Twitter — under the bus.After seeing the clip of Chris Martin’s confession, Krasinski insisted he did not get an email from him. “The man is a world treasure. Are you kidding me!?!? Emily what have you done!?!?” his comment read.So, naturally, the ball was in Emily’s court to clear the air when she sat down with Ellen on Monday.The actress explained that she did, in fact, receive said video from the Chris Martin, around 11:00 PM while in bed with her husband. But in typical I’m-just-going-to-bed-I’ll-reply-in-the-morning fashion, Emily simply forgot to reply the next day. And the next day. And then the day after that. Eventually, in what Emily refers to as a "British tendency," she simply swept it under the carpet and “erased Chris Martin” from her life in that moment.[video_embed id='1884308']RELATED: Jen Aniston takes over 'Ellen'[/video_embed]Hey, we’ve all been there. The “I’ll do it tomorrow” sentiment that dissolves into thin air as soon as we enter REM sleep, never to be addressed again. Except, if Chris Martin texted us a video of himself silently performing A Quiet Place, we’d probably not wait until morning to message him back. But hey, accidents happen.Determined to make amends, Emily took the stage to quite literally sing Chris an apology. So, while we’ve never accidentally ignored a text of that magnitude, we’ve also never sung an apology on national television.
