It was just another engaging Coldplay concert until the kiss cam panned over a couple, and things turned scandalous! Here’s what happened.Kiss cams during music shows and sports events either work as cupid or simply create awkward moments, and the latter happened on Wednesday during a Coldplay concert. At the British rock band’s show at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts, a man and woman desperately tried to hide their faces after a Jumbotron camera zoomed in on them. Identified as Astronomer CEO Andy Byron and his Chief People Officer, Kristin Cabot, were captured with their arms draped around each other as they smiled and sang before they realised that caught the camera’s attention. Their demeanor changed immediately as they saw themselves on the big screen.
Either they are having an affair, or they are just very shy, says Chris Martin
This was not a pre-performance recording, but a part of an interactive back-and-forth between lead singer Chris Martin and the crowd. As soon as the camera panned on Andy Byron and Kristin Cabot, who were smiling at that time, Martin said, “Oh, look at these two.”While the two tried to hide their identities, the singer attempted to reassure them that they didn’t have to be shy in front of the camera. However, when the man knelt out of sight, Martin sensed he might have stumbled upon a clandestine night out.“Uh oh, what? Either they are having an affair or they are just very shy,” said Martin.
Who is Andy Byron, and why all the fuss?
Reportedly, the couple tried to move away from the spotlight as both of them are married to other people. According to LinkedIn, Andy Byron is the CEO of Astronomer, as per his LinkedIn profile. He is married to Megan Kerrigan and has two children together.
