Kristin Cabot previously served as Astronomer’s chief people officer before she and Andy Byron resigned from their positions earlier this year

Kristin Cabot was caught on camera with her boss at a concert. The video went viral. Soon she was drowning in the vitriol of strangers.

In case you missed it, Coldplay is a pretty big band. Earlier this year, their Music Of The Spheres tour broke Taylor Swift’s record and became the most-attended concert tour ever, with 10.3 million tickets sold at the time. There’s even more to come, too, as the band is set to extend the run into 2027.

Kristin Cabot, who drew intense online attention after appearing on a Coldplay kiss cam with Astronomer CEO Andy Byron, has addressed the moment in a new interview. Reflecting on the night, the HR executive said she was “pumped” to introduce Byron to her friends and admitted she had a crush on him.

Kristin Cabot had a crush. Then she had a few drinks. Then a few seconds on the Coldplay kiss cam turned her life into a nightmare. She is finally talking.
