In yet another jaw-dropping spectacle of public mishaps that make you scratch your head and think, “What were they thinking?” a tech CEO and his HR head have become the latest stars of a viral internet scandal. A Coldplay concert, of all places, was the stage for this astonishing drama, as the two were caught cozying up on the infamous kiss cam. Imagine, tens of thousands of fans enjoying the concert when suddenly, the jumbotron lights up with an image of Andy Byron, CEO of Astronomer, a tech company, and his Chief People Officer, Kristin Cabot, looking rather comfortable with each other. What’s the catch? They’re both married, just not to each other!

Now, let’s dissect this a bit. Benny, the talkative commentator, starts with a strong word of advice—don’t cheat on your spouse; you avoid a world of trouble that way. But, if you’re going to take the unwise path, doing so at a public concert is akin to skydiving without a parachute—it’s only a matter of time before you crash. The reactions of our latest infamous couple upon being caught were simply the icing on this already scandalous cake. Picture this: as soon as the camera locked onto them, they both scrambled to hide their faces. Kristin turned a shade of red that possibly matched her smartphone case, while Andy ducked faster than a pop fly headed for the bleachers.

You’d think corporate folks would have this figured out, but alas, no. Astronomer, might have been hoping to reach the stars with its AI and data prowess, but its leadership’s extracurricular activities pulled them right into the internet’s spotlight instead. Making matters more intriguing, there was also an underling from the HR department in attendance at this ill-fated concert. It’s as if a sitcom plot had come to life—the assistant caught in the crossfire, laughing awkwardly as the world watched.

Let’s not forget the aftermath. Social media, with the compassion of a disgruntled cat, pounced. It’s almost impressive how social media’s elite detectives can uncover every crumb of one’s online existence in no time.

So, what’s the takeaway from this? Our society might seem to put shame in the corner, only bringing it out like the fine china for special occasions, but when it does appear, it’s a sight to behold. Cheating, especially when the whole world catches you live in 8K, remains a huge no-no. While the internet can be ruthless, sometimes it serves the important role of reminding people that actions have consequences and that morality, despite rumors of its demise, is alive and well. So, next time you consider sneaking out to a concert with your fellow questionable decisions, remember—social media is watching, and the kiss cam never misses.
