Cheating heteros outed on fancam at Coldplay concert

The money shot

The internet rushed to tell his wife

YAAAAAAAS YOU GO GURL

DON’T GET MAD, GET EVERYTHING

Nice to see the company's Chief People Officer taking a hands-on approach in getting to know her people.

I guess if they had done nothing and had no reaction the moment would have just faded into the oblivion, unmemorable. But the reaction made it notorious!

Honey, the wife probably knows and is there for the $$$ only and kids if any...

[quote] The internet rushed to tell his wife

Which was totally fucking shitty.

I know they thought they were doing her a favor, but if it were me, I would feel HUMILIATED that this was put on display for the entire world to see.

I wouldn't feel like anyone was doing me a favor. I would actually feel very hurt by it. And I'm a GUY. Women are even more sensitive to this kind of thing.

Everything on social media always has to be turned into something so salacious and malicious. Like middle school or high school gossip going around the entire school, and everyone whispering and pointing fingers.

Trust me, the internet did his wife NO FAVORS by plastering this all over social media.

Or, she could have turned around and kissed him, blocking both their faces....

Not too clever, is she?

Do the people who "rushed" to tell his wife have no life of their own to worry about?

[quote] I found this post to be interesting:

[italic]Mrs. SpaceX ™️ @anuibi

The lady smiling ear to ear is Alyssa Stoddard, recently promoted to VP of People by Kristin Cabot at @astronomerio . 🤯🤯🤯

Does anyone else know of a more toxic workplace?[/italic]

So apparently, the other people with them at the concert ALL KNEW he was cheating on his wife, and instead of downplaying it, they all stood there cheering for the "couple."

I agree with the poster that it must be a very toxic workplace, where this guy is cheating on his wife out in the open, and his co-workers are all perfectly fine with it.

And naturally, the bitch cheering on camera for the cheaters being caught, was recently promoted to Vice President by the cheating HR lady.

Gross.

The cheating HR Lady is Kristin Cabot (THORNBY).

So obviously, she's married too.

Here's her husband.

HR is always in bed with management.

I laughed.

oh wow.. I actually know that dude professionally.

Spill, R24!

Another FRAU BAIT thread for the caps kween R7

[quote] oh wow.. I actually know that dude professionally.

Is he as attractive in person, as he looks on the video?

I think he's hot.

The saddest part is that in most states infidelity does not impact the distribution of assets in a divorce. There may be some modest adjustment if marital assets were used to facilitate the divorce. But, you can be a cheating whore who never worked a day in your life and rob your husband of a huge portion of assets and get alimony.

It may, rarely, impact custody of children.

You'd think someone hurt me, but no. For some reason, I just find cheating and paternity fraud outrageous. You'd think I'm into MRA, but I also find those idiots gross, as well.

I just don't think lying and cheating should be rewarded.

Stop being such a little bitch, r21

Not much to say really. The company I work for does business with his company. Have met him a few times. He's pretty much a generic above average looking middle-aged white guy with a heavy emphasis on generic.

Chris consciously uncoupled these two from their spouses.

Who takes their workplace whore to a Coldplay concert?

His reaction spoke volumes about his character. He dumped that chick and hid faster than you could say alimony. He is pathetic.

Aren't they too old to listen to Coldplay?

White people and their love of Coldplay always makes me laugh. Coldplay sucks ass

His company does horoscopes. Not a serious company.

Hey frau at r28, I think you lost your way while looking for iVillage.

I'd be more embarrassed of being outed as a Coldplay concert goer.

R23, love that tweet--"imagine everyone finding out you went to a Coldplay concert".

[quote]Who takes their workplace whore to a Coldplay concert?

Generic middle-aged white guys.

Hetero cheating stats

That went to meme like wildfire

His wife is going to get quite a lot of money in the divorce.

There is evidence of his infidelity that the entire world has seen.

He's fucking toast.

To think if they hadn’t flinched, no one would have known the difference and it never would have made it to social media.

Everyone is assuming the other spouses had no idea but who knows.

Hi, I'm here for the frau convention. I brought tampons and pamprin!

If he has kids, they are the only ones I would feel sorry for.

At least it wasn't an Ed Sheeran concert. Now, that would've been mortifying.

Everyone involved is mid. Which is what one expects at Coldplay concert

Did we learn nothing from Ned Fulmer of the Try Guys?

They deserved to be exposed. I mean, out of all places you can take your mistress to a date, why the fuck you chose a place full of cameras like a stadium/concert venue?

Bet this knocks the Epstein Files drama out of the limelight. Trump should send these two thank you gifts. Also, this type of drama is absolutely when the internet is at its best and I'm here for it. Some of the comments and memes on Twitter/X are hilarious!

Two words: Betty. Boderick.

Oh, r53, Betty Broderick is so much more than a mere two words.

Guess Nickelback is on hiatus.

She was so happy to be a cunt homewrecker, seducing the CEO, until she got caught.

The wife is far, far better than the slut at the concert.

Whenever I fuck up in the future I will remember this for some perspective

[quote]Did we learn nothing from Ned Fulmer of the Try Guys?

What did we learn from Ned?

The CEO speaks! In the douchiest way possible.

Dumbo Tron

Kristin Cabot, Astronomer HR chief caught cuddling with boss Andy Byron on Coldplay jumbotron, bragged that she ‘wins the trust of CEOs’

She wins them by spreading her legs

Slap a Scarlet Letter on the WHORE!

As Aunt Ida taught us many years ago......the world of heterosexuals is a sick and boring life!

The husband is worth $1.3 billion.

I hope the wife is already picking out her new mansion and Porsche.

The straights just need to go poly like the gays

[quote] The husband is worth $1.3 billion.

HO.

LEE.

FUK.

I never would have guessed.

Well now he’s worth $650M! Cha-chinggg 💰

After their reactions, why put them on blast with speculation Chris Martin. I guess he was in the moment. Whores.

Best thing Coldplay ever did.

The HR wants what it wants

and so does its CEO

The really, REALLY sad thing is that these two’s innocent love of Coldplay is forever ruined, tarnished, and tainted. Now, whenever they hear Speed Of Sound in the supermarket or while on hold with some offshore customer service center it will trigger shameful memories and PTSD. It’s all so very tragic!

Maybe there’s room for them to move over to Air Supply’s fan base since Vicky L. jumped ship. They can create new and wonderful memories swaying to Hear I Am!

HERE I AM

This was ALL OVER the internet today. It wouldn't have made much press except that Chris whatshisface from Coldplay actually said - oh is it an affair in the clip.

That made them internet famous SO fast.

She obviously will have to quit - he's going to be divorced and alienated from his kids. Thank God it's over the summer so the kids may not suffer the huge torment - but they will get something this fall.

Stupid fuckers - doing it at I presume a company concert or among co-workers. Their lives just blew up in a flash.

You have to wonder what the rest of their night was like and this morning! God - you just want to hide from the world. Whew this is bad.

And fuck HR woman! She had a HOT husband too.

He had a PTSD moment because Gwynie cheated with Jay-Z. You will never convince me she was not Becky with the good hair. I said what the fuck I said.

“Oh, what?” the band’s frontman, Chris Martin, can be heard asking on stage. “Either they’re having an affair or they’re just very shy.”

You knew what you were doing Chris - LOL. Points for ugly old untalented Chris Martin.

I can't believe anyone likes Coldplay - it's muzak.

I first saw this video with the sound off, then played again on the this thread and the sound was on… It was bad enough being seen on the Jumbotron but to have Chris Martin announce it to now the world, OMG!

I'm looking forward to Ross Douthat's op-ed in NYT tomorrow: "How Rock Music Destroyed American Morals and Values."

I hope the current Mrs. Byron is already “on the train for Reno”!

Get that money, girl.

We need memes

These nobodies became world-famous overnight - and it's going to haunt them FOREVER.

Wow - they're going to have a terrible 2025 and 2026. I wonder if they'll end up marrying?

Look, that rumor about Gwyneth and JayZ - I honestly can't believe that it happened. WHAT IN GOD'S NAME could she see in that fugly douchebag whose sex appeal ranks in the negative numbers? She has/had her own money and fame, so fucking him would do what for her, exactly? You can't convince me she felt any lust for that ugly bastard either.

I'm sorry...I just don't believe it happened. And you can't change my mind, so don't even try.

[quote] Wow - they're going to have a terrible 2025 and 2026. I wonder if they'll end up marrying?

Chances are, they're in the process of breaking up.

Cheating is never as fun, once it becomes public.

I'll just bet that this guy is scrambling to save his marriage.

[quote]Gotta be careful with your side piece on Haunted Mansion now too. Lol.

What does this even mean?

[quote]Who takes their workplace whore to a Coldplay concert?

It was their company picnic so of course she was there. I wish my company gave me a concert. My company picnic is going to go see Superman.

I think human beings have an innate need to gossip. And people are so alienated now from their family and each other that they have no one to gossip about. Thus we get shit like this or the Real Housewives.

It is not a crime to have an affair!!!

The universe works in mysterious ways... sending message to long suffering wife it's time to pack your bags!

I bet you this isn't the first time lol

Please no prenup please no prenup

R83 you do realize straight women are wired differently from gay males and thus have different markers for romantic attraction. #Helpful

This PR bitch sure knows how to pick them!

[quote] She was also the head of HR for his company, so she should have known better.

Too bad they weren't at a Richard Marx concert!

He just released a statement. Sorry about the Facebook link.

He has a prenup, count on it.

R23 linked to a right-wing account

Ugh, Coldplay. The ultimate Pop/Rock band for dweebs who want to think they'll be 29-forever.

At least they’re better than The Mighty Crabjoys. Emo/Punk Rock Lite for dweebs who think they’re so punk rock.

He’s blaming Coldplay for having a fancam?

Dude. Take some responsibility.

I work for attorneys and about ten years ago one of our clients, who was a school administrator of a very large school district was having an long-running affair with his chief of staff or someone like that. His wife busted him because the side piece sexted him while he was out running and the wife saw his phone. That one made the news because he had a measure of fame in the county he worked for.

[quote]R80 Get that money, girl.

If his money is inherited wealth or predates the marriage, she isn’t entitled to any of that in a divorce. Most often it’s only money acquired as income during the marriage that counts.

[quote]r82 These nobodies became world-famous overnight - and it's going to haunt them FOREVER.

under Work History, what does she put on her next job application as “Reason for Leaving”?

I thought Tracey Edmonds was Becky With the Good Hair.

Gwynnie may have many fine qualities, but her hair is not one of them.

A small part of me is happy every time a bad thing happens to a HR exec.

^ Agreed. They’re all fucking evil.

And what dumb Fks, if you are bold enough to go out in public and to a game where this kind of Kissing Cam on the jumbo tron is a known thing they do at all those games, then you are just made it everyone's business.

This just proves my theory ALL HR people are WHORES. In this case she went a step further but a whore none less.

[bold] Never, never, never trust HR. They are ALWAYS working for the company NOT YOU. No matter what they say, how comfortable you fell telling them some personal secrets, no matter how much they say they are legally bound to confidentiality. When you step out of their office, they are right there on their knees eating the bosses ass with a smile.

The straights are so tawdry.

[quote] And what dumb Fks, if you are bold enough to go out in public and to a game where this kind of Kissing Cam on the jumbo tron is a known thing they do at all those games, then you are just made it everyone's business.

It was a Coldplay concert, R106. Not a "game."

.

Apparently, Coldplay’s fan cam is a little different than others, with Martin always making up a little ditty to sing about whoever’s on camera. So they were getting their moment regardless, but a non-reaction probably wouldn’t have blown up like this.

[quote] It is not a crime to have an affair!!!

It’s true that a lot of places allow people not to be held legally accountable for adultery, but it’s appropriately a crime elsewhere, including some U.S. states.

R110, Whatever, it was still a very large public event. Rule of thumb, if you don't want to get caught cheating, don't bring your HR whore employee to a public event for all to see and expect privacy.

Internet search says he's worth about 50 million. Maybe -25 once his wife gets her half in the divorce.

The world of a heterosexual is a sick and boring life.

Can you imagine going to a company event and dealing with this from the CEO and CPO? They were flaunting their shit. They deserve this.

Hopefully we soon hear all the good work stories about them from the employees.

Well obviously he hired her for her excellent people management skills.

Isn't this bitches job to protect the company from lawsuits from rouge employees? She basically lit the fire that she was hired to put out.

I wanna know how much of a harpy shrew the wife is that the husband felt it was OK to step out on her.

Ex-employee rips Astronomer CEO Andy Byron as ‘toxic’ boss — claims staffers ‘enjoying’ Coldplay kiss cam drama: ‘Everybody’s laughing their ass off’

The text groups and chains of former employees are like … everybody’s laughing their ass off and enjoying the hell out of what happened and him getting exposed,” the source said.

In the workplace, Byron allegedly has a reputation as an aggressive, sales-obsessed executive who can be “toxic,” the source added.

The Slack chatspaces at that company must be absolutely popping this week. No work is getting done!

Can someone confirm whether this was a corporate gig or whether they had a corporate box at the concert?

Either way - really fucking inappropriate to do in front of your employees.

I think it was corporate. The grinning woman nearby was just promoted by HR woman...

Half of $1.3 billion is $650 million.

Three kids together and the hubby caught cheating in public for the whole world to see. He should just go ahead and write her the check.

Where are we getting this 1.3 billion net worth number from? Is that the value of this horoscope company? Because that does not mean the CEO owns all of it - not even close.

Not sure how a fucking horoscope company gets evaluated at that amount anyway.

When you do something so brazen as to canoodle and carry on IN FRONT OF YOUR EMPLOYEES at a very PUBLIC venue, all I can say is:

fuck around and find out.

R127, horoscopes, lol. Astronomer seems to be some sort of data/tech company. Their website is saturated with corporate tech jargon, hard to infer what they specifically do.

I'm almost envious of that R123. I'd love to be privy to those interoffice chats!

His wife is a lot prettier than the Chief HR Whore. She must be letting him do anal.

The photo posted a few posts up is Kevin Costner’s wife

[quote] I'd love to be privy to those interoffice chats!

Ginny in Billing and Cheryl in Accounts Receivable must be having multiple fraugasms over this bit of juicy gissip!

On Reddit, the question “People who work at ‘Astronomer,’ how was work today?” was posted. The top response was “I can’t believe this is how I found out Coldplay was on tour.”

R120, is there a link?

Some HR shark must be thrilled to have to deal with this via zoom from the yacht while on vacation.

"It has come to our attention bla bla bla bla....

Wishing you all the best in your future endeavors"

Funnily enough, HR is half at fault for this disaster.

How many marriages has Chris Martin destroyed now?

R137: It's easy. Highlight the text + SEARCH.

R120's text is the exact title of a Daily Mail(?) article.

[quote]R127 Not sure how a fucking horoscope company gets evaluated at that amount anyway.

Considering the surprising turn this man’s life took, are their horoscope predictions very helpful?

[quote] How many marriages has Chris Martin destroyed now?

He banged Kate Bosworth AND Alesha Dixon when married to Gwynnie.

In a LinkedIn post the HR lady wrote, “There are plenty of companies out there where a leadership team doesn’t recognize the value that a strong people leader and people team can bring to a company…”

Are there leaders and teams that are NOT people?

No way she keeps her job

The tech company run by a CEO exposed having an alleged affair with his head-of-HR mistress on a “kiss cam” at a Coldplay concert said Friday that it has launched an investigation into the embarrassing incident, suggesting the intimate relationship was unknown to the firm’s board.

“Astronomer is committed to the values and culture that have guided us since our founding. Our leaders are expected to set the standard in both conduct and accountability,” the tech-and-data firm said in a statement.

The Board of Directors has initiated a formal investigation into this matter and we will have additional details to share very shortly.”

[quote] “Astronomer is committed to the values and culture that have guided us since our founding. Our leaders are expected to set the standard in both conduct and accountability,” the tech-and-data firm said in a statement.

Are we living in the 1800s?

Give me a break.

This has nothing to do with business.

People cheat. Deal with it.

Besides, these two will pay for their indiscretion, in other ways. Not the least of which is financially.

Yes, affairs happen r149.

However, an affair between the CEO and the HR Head is a big problem, as HE is her REPORT-TO.

That's a NO-NO. What should have been done is the same thing that happened in a similar situation in the early 2000s at bank I worked for: reveal the affair and change the reporting structure. However, that's - AGAIN - a problem, since he's the CEO. The only person above him is the BOD, and they were "unaware."

So, yeah...it's a BIG problem now.

[quote] People cheat. Deal with it.

^^^^ You can always tell the comments made by people who have cheated on someone.

They both need to resign. There is no way back from that. The board and their investors must have zero confidence if the company’s leadership showed unbelievably bad judgment.

I hadn't known that company existed until this scandal broke.

Oh, the publicity! La publicité!

Can't wait for the Lifetime Original movie based on this.

I eat old cheaters excrement.

Having lived this, not-so 'clandestine' inter-office bonking in a reporting chain creates a myriad of problems for a company, the biggest being LOTS of employees are usually impacted negatively. Here, with the head of HR involved - which is supposed to be a safe place where people go to get their reporting chain issues remedied - the level of fuckery and hubris here is off the charts. I love that the Board seems to be committing to share publicly the details of the investigation.

There is no way either of them keeps their job.

I’m shocked there hasn’t been an announcement about their resignation/termination but I guess the lawyers are still hammering out the details .

[quote]The tech company run by a CEO exposed having an alleged affair with his head-of-HR mistress on a “kiss cam” at a Coldplay concert said Friday that it has launched an investigation into the embarrassing incident, suggesting the intimate relationship was unknown to the firm’s board.

HR used to be the Executive Secretary who had all of the personal records under lock and key, the person who came every twice a month and handed out paychecks in the 1st and 3rd Thursdays. Now it's elevated to the C-Suite, an executive, an office elevated to the highest ranks - yet slightly apart so as to have no significant role beyond being the face to greet the incoming and the person to escort you to your desk with a cardboard box for any personal effects at the end of your run. More than 78% of Chief People Officers or Chief HR Officers are women -- and the percentage grows wider at a time when women at the top positions are losing numbers.

HR is supposed to train staff in recognizing inappropriate behavior, relationships that can have the appearance of a conflict if interest, blah, blah, blah. It's a joke to.separate the drones from the decision-makers, and to do the bidding of the latter.

HR isn't half as hated as they should be. There.must be some fundamental instinct to believe that, at core, all people are good and have your best interests as their priority. After all they are People Officers!

I hope the who HR Up With People lot.lose their jobs.and their houses for having pulled the wool over so many eyes. What a fucking Joke they are.

[quote]Chief people officers remain one of the only C-suite roles that is dominated by women rather than men, the report found. Seventy-eight percent of new CHROs were women in 2019, and of all Fortune 200 CHROs, 67.3 percent were women, according to the report. This happened in the same time span in which the CEO role in the Fortune 200 saw a decline in female representation.

[quote] They both need to resign. There is no way back from that. The board and their investors must have zero confidence if the company’s leadership showed unbelievably bad judgment.

R153 Agree, but it shouldn't stop there. Neither of these two should work in a corporate C-suite ever again, especially that of any corporation funded by public investors. That doesn't mean they won't -- we seem to have returned to an era (temporarily, with any luck) where mediocre-to-downright-idiotic white people like these morons get opportunities they don't deserve. (See also: Most of current Trump admin and cabinet, specifically Trump, Vance, Hegseth, Noem, RFK Jr., Lutnick, and douchebag member emeritus/government-funded welfare queen Musk.)

Catastrophically bad judgment on both their parts. The good news is, with their cover being blown on such a massive public stage, there is zero chance that any future background check will miss this debacle.

[quote]r153 They both need to resign. There is no way back

And both must be escorted from the building by Security, cardboard boxes of belongings in hand... as per HR guidelines.

The walk of atonement will occur everywhere they dare to show their face in public.

Speaking of which, I predict the first post-shitstorm interview goes to Amy & TJ. They get it, for reals.

R126 and all you other spurned fraus stop flicking your dried up frau clits over this 1.6 billion dollar figure that's swanning about this thread. The COMPANY is worth 1.6.

And he has a prenup.

So just stop.

Who is that bottom in the SportsCenter clip?

This is the most I've heard anyone talking about Coldplay in a decade.

[quote] This has nothing to do with business. People cheat. Deal with it.

Not in a work environment. Guess who the CEO is going to give first dibs on the new management position, or the highest salary. Or who's going to get fired if you have a complaint about his new fuck buddy's actual work skills. Not to mention making it very awkward for the employees to pretend they see nothing when the wife stops by. Or worse gets suspicious and asks if you have seen anything. Or even worse she knows and then confronts you as to way you didn't say anything to her after knowing each other for years.

[quote]More than 78% of Chief People Officers or Chief HR Officers are women

This is why any time I have a conversation about business I highly encourage and talk up the benefits of using an outside service like Bambee. The selling point is it's a LOT cheaper and no office or huge salaries needed. But my secret reason is I want to see that profession die in the office. It's a field ripe for disruption so I encourage getting rid of in-house HR every chance I get.

Isn’t Chief People Officer a position at Lumon?

Astronomer HR chief Kristin Cabot appears to be married to CEO of Privateer Rum— and bought a house with him just five months ago: records
