How the Astronomer CEO’s Coldplay concert cameo broke the internet

It's a story that has brought a frankly
0:01
boring software company specializing in
0:03
data pipelines onto the global front
0:05
pages. Here is everything you need to
0:07
know in 60 seconds as the jumbotron
0:09
camera panned around a Coldplay concert
0:11
in Boston earlier this week. A seemingly
0:13
happy couple were filmed embracing. It
0:14
look quite cute cuddled to be honest.
0:16
But moments after they were realizing
0:18
they were on a big screen and the whole
0:20
world could see it and she puts her face
0:22
in her hands and he ducks out of view.
0:24
Coldplay frontman Chris Martin joked,
0:26
"Either they're having an affair or
0:28
they're very shy." It turns out that the
0:30
pair are colleagues and not just any
0:32
colleagues. Andy Byron is the chief exec
0:34
of New York-based software company
0:36
Astronomer. She, well, she's the firm's
0:38
chief people officer, head of HR,
0:39
Christine Kabat. But since a fake
0:41
statement seemingly from Byron, appeared
0:43
to criticize the public exposure of the
0:44
clip, even quoting Coldplay's song Fix
0:46
You in a Hoax Coldplay Post on X. The
0:49
band appeared to joke that they were
0:51
introducing camera-free audience
0:52
sections for people in their side
0:54
pieces. What started at a concert in New
0:56
England has spiraled into a truly global
0:58
moment which has revealed just how
1:00
quickly information and misinformation
1:02
can spread. For all the latest business
