When Coldplay took the stage at Gillette Stadium, fans expected love songs — not live affair exposure. But that’s exactly what happened when the kiss cam landed on Astronomer CEO Andy Byron and HR chief Kristin Cabot, who appeared a little too cozy. Chris Martin even joked, “Either they’re having an affair or they’re just very shy,” before the couple ducked out of sight — and the internet lost its mind.

The scandal sparked a tsunami of jokes. Here's a roundup of the funniest reactions making the rounds.

What started as a romantic Coldplay concert turned into a viral PR disaster — but also the funniest meme moment of July 2025. Whether it's the sweatshirt merch, fake LinkedIn apologies, or lyrical rewrites of Fix You, social media has truly outdone itself. If there’s one lesson here, it’s this: never take your affair to a Coldplay concert — and definitely don’t sit front and center during kiss cam.
