Who is the tech billionaire, and why has Andy Byron become a overnight hit after being caught on the kiss camera with a female audience member at a Coldplay concert?
Tech mogul Andy Byron has been catapulted into the spotlight for all the wrong reasons, following a cringe-worthy “kiss cam” incident involving Coldplay’s Chris Martin.
Byron, the CEO of the successful software firm Astronomer, was caught on camera in an intimate embrace with a colleague during a Coldplay gig in Boston, Massachusetts.
The shocking scene unfolded on Wednesday evening when the cameras panned to Byron – who is said to be married – and his associate Kristin Cabot, entwined in each other’s arms.
As the audience sounded in a humorous manner, Chris Martin jokingly said, “Oh look at these two.” Cabot and Byron were less amused, though.
A TikTok video captured them frantically covering their faces once they realised they were being broadcast to thousands of concertgoers, reports the Express.
Since then, the video has accumulated thousands of shares on TikTok and X, disguising the footage and causing wild conjecture among viewers.
Andy Byron, who is he?
He had a knack for developing enterprise tools and building global teams before starting his role at Astronomer. Before this incident, Byron had been successful in keeping a low profile outside of the tech community.
Kristin Cabot, who is she?
It’s still to be seen whether social media users will maintain that level of trust.
Byron and Cabot have not yet made any comments about the viral clip.
