Digest more
Internet sleuths identified the embarrassed woman caught on the Coldplay kiss cam next to Andy Byron and Kristin Cabot as Astronomer’s just-promoted VP of HR.
Following the viral video of tech CEO Andy Byron caught in an affair at a Coldplay show, his company Astronomer has launched an investigation into the incident.
Almost instantly, the clip went viral, racking up over 30 million views. The internet was transfixed and delighted in the schadenfreude: the wealthy, married chief executive of a tech firm being caught out canoodling with a colleague, the head of HR no less, in the most criminally uncool of contexts: a Coldplay concert.
Alyssa Stoddard, Astronomer's Senior Director of People, was standing next to CEO Andy Boyd and HR exec Kristin Cabot during their viral kiss cam moment, raising questions about who in the company knew about the affair before it went public.
Social media users believe Stoddard is the red-faced woman seen grimacing as Andy Byron and Kristin Cabot ran from the jumbotron cameras at the concert.
