During a recent Coldplay concert in Massachusetts, singer Chris Martin found himself in the spotlight for an unexpected reason. A humorous incident unfolded when the Jumbotron captured a moment between two concert-goers, leading to a playful comment from the frontman.
The viral clip, which circulated widely on social media, featured tech entrepreneur Andy Byron and Kristin Cabot, the head of human resources at his company. Their affectionate display sparked speculation about their relationship status, prompting Martin to address the situation with his signature wit.
As the concert progressed at Foxborough's Gillette Stadium, Martin seized the opportunity to poke fun at the earlier incident. In a lighthearted exchange with another couple on the Jumbotron, he asked, “Are you two a legitimate couple?” This quip was met with laughter from the audience, showcasing Martin's ability to turn an awkward moment into entertainment.
“Do you understand English? Hablas Español? Ok, I’m just going to risk it,” he added, further engaging the crowd with his playful banter. The moment came shortly after the initial couple was mistakenly featured on the kiss cam during “The Jumbotron Song,” which transitions into the band’s beloved track “Fix You.”
Initially, Martin had thought he was witnessing a sweet interaction. “Look at these two,” he remarked before realizing their discomfort. The CEO and Cabot quickly ducked out of view, prompting Martin to express his confusion: “Oh, what? Either they’re having an affair or they’re just very shy.”
In a candid moment following the incident, he exclaimed, “Holy sh-t. I hope we didn’t do something bad,” reflecting on the unexpected turn of events. As details emerged post-concert, it was revealed that Byron is married to Megan Kerrigan Byron, while Cabot recently finalized her divorce from Kenneth Thornby.
The situation took another twist when Kerrigan removed her married name from her Facebook profile shortly after the concert. Reports indicate that she deleted her Facebook account entirely, raising eyebrows and fueling speculation about the implications of the Jumbotron incident.
This blend of humor and unexpected drama has captivated fans and observers alike, illustrating how live performances can lead to unforeseen moments that resonate far beyond the stage.
