A viral video from a Coldplay concert has set the internet buzzing — not just for the music, but for what unfolded in the crowd. Astronomer CEO Andy Byron was caught on camera sharing an intimate moment with the company’s HR head, Kristin Cabotsparking a wave of trolling and online chatter.
But now, it’s not just the duo making headlines. Social media users have zeroed in on a third person in the frame — Alyssa Stoddard, Astronomer’s Senior Director of People — whose reaction has become meme material. Her expression, caught at just the right moment, is now doing the rounds online, adding a whole new twist to the office drama turned public spectacle.
Who Is Alyssa Stoddard?
Alyssa Stoddard stepped into the role of Senior Director of People at Astronomer in January 2025, as per her LinkedIn profile. Her professional background includes leadership roles such as Board Member at Little Sparks Project, HR Business Partner at Proofpoint, and Manager of People Strategy at ObserveI.
In a recent development, Kristin Cabot is said to have promoted Stoddard to Vice President of People—a move also acknowledged in a LinkedIn post that surfaced online last week.
Andy Byron-Kristin Cabot Kiss Cam Video
Coldplay’s recent concert in Massachusetts is making headlines — but not just for the band’s performance. Instead, a surprising moment in the crowd has stolen the spotlight and sparked a frenzy across social media platforms like X, TikTok, and Instagram.
During the Boston gig, Chris Martin unintentionally directed attention toward Andy Byron and Kristin Cabot, caught on the jumbotron, wrapped in an intimate embrace. As the camera zoomed in, the pair quickly pulled apart and tried to avoid the spotlight — but it was too late. The video went viral almost instantly.
The two were soon identified as Andy Byron, CEO of tech firm Astronomer, and the company’s HR head, Kristin Cabot. Their reaction to being on screen only fuelled speculation. Adding to the drama, Chris Martin reportedly quipped from the stage, “Oh look at these two… either they’re having an affair or they’re very shy,” sending the crowd into a flurry of laughter — and the internet into overdrive.
“Chris Martin is a savage,” one user posted. “Hahah… awkward situation,” another chimed in.
What’s fueling the viral buzz even more? Reports suggest Byron is married to Megan Kerrigan Byron, with whom he lives in New York. The nature of his interaction with Cabot at the concert has led to a wave of questions — and allegations of an extramarital affair.
As of now, neither Byron nor Cabot has responded publicly to the swirling controversy.
