Coldplay is giving fans fair warning after their recent display exposed Astronomer CEO Andy Byron’s alleged affair.
Following the scandal that unfolded during ‘Jumbotron Song’ at Gillette Stadium display in Foxboro, Massachapplytts on Tuesday, frontman Chris Martin built light of the situation as the band performed Saturday at Camp Randall Stadium in Madison, Wisconsin.
“We’d like to state hello to some of you in the crowd,” he declared in a video shared on X, sparking laughter among the audience. “How we’re gonna do that is we’re gonna apply our cameras and put some of you on the huge screen.”
Martin jokingly added, “So please, if you haven’t done your buildup, do your buildup now.”
The 7x Grammy winner’s comment comes after Byron and Astronomer chief people officer Kristin Cabot were put on leave by the software startup following a now viral clip of them hiding their faces when the camera caught them cuddling for the jumbotron.
“Oh, see at these two,” declared Martin in the clip. “All right, c’mon, you’re okay—Oh, what? Either they’re having an affair or they’re just very shy.”
Since the pair went on leave pconcludeing an investigation, Astronomer co-founder and chief product officer Pete DeJoy has stepped in as interim CEO.
