LONDON (AP) — A routine moment of crowdwork at a Coldplay concert went viral last week when a couple tried to avoid the spotlight after they were caught hugging on the jumbotron. Internet sleuths quickly figured out that they were the CEO and chief people officer of a little-known tech company called Astronomer.
Coldplay frontman Chris Martin is joining in on the viral kiss cam couple moment. On Saturday, during the first concert since the now-infamous video was taken, Martin jokingly warned the audience that the fan cam was about to begin filming.
Astronomer CEO Andy Byron has resigned following an investigation into his relationship with a human resource officer after Coldplay frontman Chris Martin accidentally hard-launched their purported affair at a concert.
