During Coldplay’s concert on Saturday night, lead singer Chris Martin advised fans to be camera-ready, referencing the significant controversy sparked by the kiss-cam at the previous show.
This remark came just a few days after a viral moment involving millionaire CEO Andy Byron and HR executive Kristin Cabot, who awkwardly avoided the kiss-cam spotlight during Coldplay’s concert in Boston on Wednesday, leading to an online buzz.
“We’d like to say hello to some of you in the crowd. How we’re going to do that is by using our cameras to put some of you on the big screen,” Martin informed the audience during the show at Camp Randall Stadium in Madison on Saturday, as seen in videos posted by concert attendees on social media.
âSo please, if you havenât done your makeup, do your makeup now,â he said.
The cheeky comment came just days after Byron, 50, and Cabot, 52, were caught cuddling â then panicking â as jumbotron cameras zeroed in on them in a crowd of 55,000 during Coldplayâs concert at Gillette Stadium.
Cabot quickly shielded her face while Byron ducked out of view, the video showed.
Martin quipped, âEither theyâre having an affair or theyâre very shy.â
By Thursday morning, the pair was identified as the high-powered CEO and HR boss of a tech company.
On Friday â the same day a new video emerged of Byron and Cabot â their stunning downfall accelerated, as both were placed on leave while Astronomer said it was investigating the debacle.
And an interim CEO, company co-founder Pete DeJoy, a Brooklynite, was named.
By Saturday, news broke that Byron has quit the company.
Byron, estimated to be worth between $50 and $70 million, was paid between $469,000 and $690,000 a year, but received handsome performance-based bonuses.
Cabotâs future with the AI-driven data company remains unclear.
