Coldplay, they’re a great band, making hits like “Viva la Vida” and “Sparks.” They’re great, and recently at one of their concerts, the kiss-cam revealed the CEO of Astronomer having an affair with the head of H.R. Talk about awkward, am I right?
Anyway, if you haven’t heard about that situation, are you living under a rock? Genuinely, it’s been everywhere, there was even a game made of it! Regardless, that whole situation seems to have caused a massive spike in streaming for Coldplay! So, let’s talk about it.
Kiss-Cam Moment Sparks Online Frenzy
So, according to McKinley Franklin on ‘The Hollywood Reporter,’ Coldplay Streams have gone up 25 percent! That’s a lot, it went from 28.7 million streams on Spotify to 35.7 million! The virality of the kiss-cam, as mentioned before, resulted in a video game being made I’m pretty sure within the same week! That’s insane, seriously insane! If you look at Forbes you will see how they breakdown the video game but according to Jonathan Mann, the creator of the game, “You’re the camera operator and you have to find the CEO and HR lady canoodling”.
The Aftermath of the Events
So, now what? What’s gonna happen next? Well, some people think that the Astronomer CEO is going to sue the band, however, that’s just a rumor that was being spread throughout social media, thankfully! Overall, aside from the CEO Andy Byron and the head of H.R Kristin Cabot both resigning from Astronomer, as they should, not much else has happened that we know about. Considering everything that’s happened, it could be worse in terms of celebrity scandals. That’s it for now and have a fantastic day wherever you are!
