Kiss cam caught having an affair at the Coldplay concert

On the evening of July 17, 2025 (Vietnam time), at Coldplay’s concert within the framework of the Music of the Spheres tour at Gillette Stadium, Boston (USA), a “kiss cam” moment became the focus of attention.

In the interaction with the audience, the stadium camera shows a couple hugging quite intimately. When they realized themselves on the big screen in front of 60,000 spectators, the two immediately became embarrassed, trying to cover their faces and avoid the camera. Coldplay singer Chris Martin immediately commented: “Oh, look at these two… Either they’re having an affair, or they’re very shy,” making the crowd laugh.

It is worth mentioning that tech tycoon Andy Byron is happily married with his wife and 2 children, sparking speculation of an affair.

In just 24 hours, the clip has attracted nearly 50 million views and thousands of shares on the original post, not counting countless derivative posts. The incident became a hot topic on Google, the name Andy Byron reached more than 2 million searches in a day. Netizens also named the incident “Coldplaygate” or “Coldplay Cheater Cam”.

Insider reaction

Naturally, insiders were quickly named and the first was CEO Andy Byron. He faced great criticism pressure from the online community.

On the morning of July 18 , an apology allegedly from Byron went viral online, in which he admitted his personal mistake: “I want to admit the moment that is going viral online and the disappointment it caused. A music night that was supposed to be full of joy turned out to be a personal mistake on a public stage. I sincerely apologize to my wife, family and the team at Astronomer…”.

However, a spokesperson for the Astronomer, Taylor Jones, denied the veracity of this statement in response to an email from the Men’s Journal. This person confirmed that it was fake and the company has not made an official comment.

Andy Byron’s only public move was to delete/disable his LinkedIn account.

As for CPO Kristin Cabot, she has not made any public comment on the incident and has maintained a LinkedIn account. She joined Astronomer in November 2024 as Director of Human Resources. In her LinkedIn description, she describes herself as someone who “earns the trust of employees at all levels, from CEOs to assistants.” In the current context, this information has been dug up and ridiculed and ridiculed by netizens.

Another Astronomer employee, Alyssa Stoddard, also appeared in the video at the Coldplay concert. On social media, information spread that she could know and support the relationship between Byron and Cabot, so she was promoted. But there is currently no confirmed information about her role in the incident.

Megan Kerrigan Byron – Andy Byron’s wife, seems to have been heavily affected by the incident. She removed the surname “Byron” from her name on social media and disabled her personal Facebook account shortly after the incident went viral. There has been no official statement from Megan, but this action is seen as a sign of a marital breakdown.

The Astronomer company, where Byron and Cabot work, is also silent in the face of the scandal. They have disabled commenting on the company’s LinkedIn and X posts to avoid a wave of criticism from the public. Astronomer has not made any official statements about the impact of the incident on the company’s internal affairs or policies related to workplace relationships.

Netizens are making waves, LinkedIn has never been so noisy!

The online community reacted strongly to the incident, with many different streams of opinions:

Many people expressed support and sympathy for Megan, saying that she did not deserve such a public betrayal. A Facebook comment read: “I hope she is surrounded by loving and supportive people to get through this.” Another shared: “It’s a bad thing to find out that your husband is having an affair through a stranger’s social network.”

Along with that is a critical attitude, disagreeing with the actions of Byron and Cabot. Many people think that the behavior of the 2 senior leaders of Astronomer is unprofessional and condemnable. One user X wrote: “Taking your lover to a concert with a camera is stupid. And I feel sorry for his wife.”

The incident also became the inspiration for humorous memes, mockery, and creative products.

An Etsy seller quickly released a sweatshirt with the words “I Took My Sidepiece To The Coldplay Concert And It Ruined My Life.” The shirt costs 34.99 USD, which is more than 915 thousand VND. Another person sold a new disguised glass product with a mustache and thick eyebrows to go to a concert for 6.55 USD, discounted to 4.49 USD (more than 117 thousand VND).

The former CEO of Astronomer, Ry Walker, also joined in on the fun by using the hashtag #ColdplayGate on X. Even a person with the same name as Andy Byron took advantage of the confusion to promote his video service on LinkedIn, with a humorous bio line: “NOT THE PERSON IN THE COLDPLAY CASE”. He also posted a voice and received a significant amount of interaction.

Other Astronomer scandals exposed

Although the “kiss cam” case is still the focus of attention, in the comment section of posts about the incident, some sources and comments on social networks have delved into the issue of corporate image and working culture at Astronomer.

Several posts on X called Astronomer a “toxic workplace” after the incident, with speculation that the relationship between Byron and Cabot may have been known but concealed by some subordinate employees. In particular, the appearance of Alyssa Stoddard, a recently promoted employee, in the video has raised questions about favoritism within the company.

There are also anonymous posts claiming to be former employees of the company, describing Byron as an “authoritarian” leader and questioning the transparency of Astronomer’s governance. On the afternoon of July 18 (Vietnam time), a person claiming to be an Astronomer employee said he had been fired for booking concert tickets for two bosses.

However, these allegations are still one-sided information, which has not been confirmed by official sources.

We will continue to update the next developments of the case.
