What was meant to be a fun and heartwarming moment at Coldplay’s concert at Gillette Stadium in Boston on July 16 turned into an unexpectedly awkward and controversial incident one that even left frontman Chris Martin visibly shocked.
Kiss Cam Catches More Than Just a Sweet Moment
While performing an improvised version of The Jumbotron Song, Chris Martin encouraged a light-hearted “kiss cam” segment that panned across the crowd to capture couples enjoying the show. Things took a turn when the camera landed on Andy Byron, CEO of tech company Astronomer, and Kristin Cabot, the company’s Chief People Officer. The pair were seen in a seemingly intimate moment, wrapped in each other’s arms, but quickly recoiled when they realized they were on the big screen.
Chris, unaware of the context, jokingly told the crowd, “Oh, look at these two,” and added, “Either they’re having an affair or they’re just very shy,” prompting laughter from the audience.
