“Working on a shit”
During an Oasis concert by the “Live ’25” reunion tour in Manchester, Liam Gallagher commented on the Coldplay scandal. In doing so, he moved unequivocally and calmed the audience: inside. “Do we have any Turtelbauben in the house? Don’t worry, we don’t have this sneaky Coldplay camera shit,” said Gallagher.
Gallagher added that they don’t care who the concert goers with: “Rummacht or intimate in the inside or are intimate:“ We are concerned with a shit, ”the musician continued.
An incident with consequences
The unveiling of the Byron Cabot affair quickly developed into a meme hype on the Internet. Comments, video analyzes and countless posts were involuntarily made the main characters of a viral scandal out of the CEO and the HR manager.
The media attention was not without consequences: On Saturday (July 19) Andy Byron declared his resignation as a CEO of Astronomer. The company also announced that Kristin Cabot had been on leave. This should not only be attributed to public pressure, but also on the company’s internal guidelines that prohibit relationships at work.
Chris Martin warns spectators: inside
At the first Coldplay concert since the Kiss cam scandal, Martin also reminded the audience in advance that they may be filmed. “We would like to welcome some of you in the audience,” said the singer at Camp Randall Stadium in Wisconsin. “And we do this by using our cameras and showing some of you on the screen. So please if you have not yet done your make-up-now it would be a good time.”
