HR exec caught on Coldplay kiss cam resigns
Briefly

Kristin Cabot has resigned from her position at tech company Astronomer, a move that follows the resignation of CEO Andy Byron. Their viral moment at a Coldplay concert, captured on the Jumbotron, elicited widespread reactions, memes, and analytical data showing a 20% increase in Coldplay streaming. The couple was caught off guard during the concert, leading to a flurry of internet speculation about their relationship. Following the incident, both Cabot's and Byron's profiles were removed from Astronomer's website.
The episode resulted in endless memes, parody videos and screenshots of the pair's shocked faces filling social media feeds.
Cabot and Byron were caught by surprise when singer Chris Martin asked the cameras to scan the crowd for his 'Jumbotron Song' during the concert last week.
Both of their profiles have been now removed from Astronomer's website and a November press release announcing her hiring has also been deleted.
Online streams of Coldplay's songs jumped 20% in the days after the video went viral, according to Luminate, an industry data and analytics company.
