You know this Coldplay affair video, why were they still hugging when they knew the kiss cam was out?

[Ohhereiswhereitis]

It wasn’t like they were the first person that got zoomed in on
guess it shows how complacent they were

at least the partners at home know now and can bin them off

Apparently, that was a fake statement. Unless he’s actually issued something himself in the last couple of hours.

I'm with you. If I go to a concert I want to be entertained, not the entertainment. But I don't really like having my photo taken anyway. I know other people enjoy the kiss cam though.

That would certainly fix him with tears rolling down his face and no lights to guide him home anymore.

Ah right. I suppose you shouldn't trust anything like that to be genuine.

If you don't want to kiss on camera, don't show any affection and prepare a sign saying "My brother/sister" to whip out if need be.

A kisscam is so last century and if their taste in music is Coldplay, the sympathy is for their families.

Well, he had his arms around her tightly and they were swaying, locked together.

"I prefer to think of my role as people strategy versus traditional human resources, as the real magic happens when you align the people strategy with the business strategy."

Corporate bollocks nonsense. Every company has an element of it.

Very valid point!

I had a guy who stalked me for several years in my twenties. 25 years later I have no pictures of myself on FB or Instagram. I still get totally non-reflective people telling me they don't like faceless accounts. It never occurs to anyone that there might be a valid reason you don't want to post your photos or personal going ons online!

Being at a concert and having your presence beamed put to all and sundry not knowing who is in the crowd would have a nightmare. Very uncomfortable.

his response was cringeworthy too

Yeah - I saw Tim Peake at Wimbledon the other day, quietly enjoying the tennis with his wife, if that's not egomania I don't know what is.

Bloody astronauts.

I think it is hilarious.
Serves the right.

That said, in this case this couple deserved it though I'm sure it was mortifying and the fallout must of been epic scale at home. Imagine entering an affair having concerns about partners finding out and the entire world ending up knowing!

As to 'why didn't they just calmly wave' they had sudden fight or flight mode. You know, rabbit stuck in the headlights? They hadn't conceived ending up in the screen. When it happened they went to the most primal reaction - get away from the danger. The Guy was no knight in shining armour he ducked first. He got full flight mode. Obviously his marriage meant something to him still.

The woman got stuck and you can literally see her brain and body struggling to coordinate an appropriate reaction before she too, slinks away.

Their colleagues seem to be laughing at their expense rather than in concert with them. It looks to me like it was a laugh of 'Ha ha! They got caught!'

I’m the same. Keep a very low profile for similar reasons. It all makes me so uncomfortable

His reaction online and his 'apology' was pitiful and speaks volumes about him.

but yes I actually find the idea of this kisscam idea quite intrusive.

I don't know why people think they aren't astronauts, this is a 100% confirmed photo of them before the show.

If they had just acted normally, this would not have made the news. Him throwing himself on the floor made it obvious they weren't meant to be together!

😂😂😂😂

I have questions…

Whats a kiss cam?
Are they just at coldplay gigs?
What’s it got to do with astronauts?

I can absolutely see why they panicked and hid though. I think it would be most people's first reaction.

And while they're obviously doing wrong, I do feel a bit sorry for them. More for their families, of course, but although this is obviously a wrong, wrong thing to do, the public international spectacle of it, names and memes on social media viewed globally and all that, seems harsh.

Kiss cam - a video camera that pans over the audience at concerts and events and then spotlights a couple who are the supposed to kiss. They are not just used at Coldplay.

Astronaut - the couple in question work at a tech company called Astronomer

I think it’s funny, but I doubt their spouses think that. Silly sods shouldn’t have reacted.

It is literally every other post on FB its awful really, I know the partners/family have nothing to be embarrassed by but i think they will be, I know I would feel mortified if that was my life being showcased and picked at by vultures like that.

If someone is asking for more info I think its a good sign they haven't seen the video. Some ppl have lives that don't revolve around tik tok

If they were out at a work event in open sight of their colleagues, then perhaps the reactions are more about how the company's clients may react to the public reveal....
