Chris Martin jokes about mortified couple at gig

Metro17-07-2025
Coldplay's Chris Martin went viral last night after jokingly calling out a couple 'having an affair' mid-concert.
The band was playing at Gillette Stadium in Boston on Wednesday, and panned around a camera to show the audience members on a big screen.
'Ooh, look at these two,' said Chris as the camera panned to a couple watching the concert in an embrace, with the man standing behind the woman.
The duo noticed the cameras and immediately broke apart, covering their faces and ducking away from the camera.
'Alright, come on, you're ok! Oh, what?' he said as they continued to shy away from the camera.
'Either they're having an affair or are just very shy!'
The quip was met with 65,000 spectators bursting into laughter and gasping as the frontman may have jokingly 'outed' the pair.
A video of the moment has since racked up millions of views on social media, with one video shared by a fan on TikTok nearing six million views.
The internet has also gone wild after seeing this awkward viral video, with many joking about the hilarious encounter.
'What's worse, finding out your spouse is cheating or that they're a fan of Coldplay?' asked CallMeK1123.
'I am screaming at that man and woman getting caught allegedly having an affair at the Coldplay concert. Chris Martin calling them out too, I'm in tears,' HAMPIA4481.
The band is currently on their record-breaking Music of the Spheres tour, which has been ongoing for years.
The tour kicked off in 2022 and is scheduled to end in a few months at London's Wembley Stadium on September 8, 2025.
The band is set to play Maddison, Nashville and Miami before heading back to the UK for a string of dates in August.

The British band was in Texas on June 14 and announced to the crowd that they were going to attempt to sing a hit song from their 2005 album X&Y, Speed of Sound.
'To finish a good time here in El Paso, why don't we try and reclaim the song Speed of Sound?' Chris told fans.
'For those of you who were not born in 2005, here's Speed of Sound, it's not that good, but we're going to try and play it anyway!'

Vanessa Kirby confirms huge Fantastic Four secret everyone is talking about

Warning: Spoilers ahead for The Fantastic Four: First Steps. Vanessa Kirby has confirmed the truth behind that Fantastic Four mid-credits sequence. The British actress, 37, plays Sue Storm—or the Invisible Woman, to those in the know—in The Fantastic Four: First Steps. Sue makes up one quarter of Marvel's First Family, appearing alongside husband Reed Richards (Pedro Pascal), hotheaded brother Johnny Storm (Joseph Quinn) and human rock face The Thing (Ebon Moss-Bachrach) as the titular Fantastic Four. With the Fantastic Four's Marvel Cinematic Universe debut out now, audiences have been flocking in droves to witness their arrival. The team may have their hands full battling cosmic world-eater Galactus and his herald, the Silver Surfer (Julia Garner), but there'll be an even bigger villain on fans' minds once the end credits finish rolling. With the cat out of the bag, Kirby has clarified what Doctor Doom's cameo at the end of the film means… and confirmed that star Robert Downey Jr. is already very much back. In the first of two post-credits sequences, Sue is shocked to find a menacing hooded figure looming over her young son, Franklin. Fans will already know this to be the Fantastic Four's longtime nemesis, Doctor Doom, who will be played by Robert Downey Jr. in the upcoming sequel, Avengers: Doomsday. Although the villain's face is obscured, Kirby has revealed that it was indeed Downey Jr. behind that hood. 'Yeah! Robert's never not been on set,' she told Variety when asked whetherRDJ was present for the shoot. She continued: 'He's always there. He is our leader. We call him our Godfather. He's looked after us. This sequence was filmed by the Russo Brothers as part of their work on Avengers: Doomsday and shot while Kirby was pregnant in real life. 'It's such a joy working with the Russos and him, because they've had such deep collaboration for so long,' she revealed. 'And it's been amazing being pregnant and working on Avengers. I felt so inspired and so relieved that I've been so taken care of. It's been a really beautiful journey. Robert is just doing incredible work. I'm so excited.' It was announced last year that Downey Jr. would be returning to the long-running franchise, six years after being killed off in Avengers: Endgame. This came as Earth's mightiest heroes faced off against purple menace Thanos (Josh Brolin) for the fate of the universe. This spelt the end of Downey Jr.'s career-defining stint as Tony Stark—aka Iron Man—sacrificing himself at the end of the film to secure the future of reality as we know it. A few years later, it was confirmed that he would be returning, albeit in an entirely different role. The actor's appointment to the post was unveiled at last year's Comic-Con, when a cloaked Downey Jr. removed his mask to reveal that he would be playing Doom, real name Victor von Doom. This character was previously played by late Nip/Tuck actor Julian McMahon in the 2005 and 2007 films and by Toby Kebbell in the 2015 reboot. To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video Doom's brief appearance at the end of First Steps gives little away as to what he has planned, although we do know it involves Sue and Reed's infant son. He will spearhead a massive cast in Avengers: Doomsday, which is currently set for release on December 26, 2026. More Trending Names already announced include Chris Hemsworth, Anthony Mackie, Sebastian Stan, Letitia Wright and Paul Rudd, as well as X-Men actors Sir Patrick Stewart, Sir Ian McKellen, Alan Cumming, Rebecca Romijn and James Marsden. Of his return to the MCU, Downey Jr. joked: 'New mask, same task. 'What did I tell you? I like playing complicated characters.' The Fantastic Four: First Steps is out in UK cinemas now. Got a story?

Oscar winner Daniel Kaluuya's absence from spotlight fuels wild rumours

After winning an Oscar for Judas and the Black Messiah, Daniel Kaluuya has retreated from the spotlight, which has led some fans to believe that the star now leads a secret life outside of Hollywood Daniel Kaluuya's career has recently become the subject of wild speculation following his absence from the screen. ‌ Since winning the Best Supporting Actor Oscar in 2021 for Judas and the Black Messiah, the British star has kept a surprisingly low profile in Hollywood blockbusters. When he bagged his Oscar, Kaluuya was reportedly flooded with movie offers - but he has since stayed clear from appearing on screen. However, this had ultimately led to wild rumours emerging online, particularly after a social media post claimed he'd 'joined a cult.' ‌ The post blew up with over 24 million views before being pulled, which had ignited an old story dating back to the filming of Nope. At that time, US media outlets linked Kaluuya to a New Age figure named Vanylla Salimah Mahmoud, also known as Heir Holiness, who described herself as his spiritual adviser and once said she was his manager. ‌ Reports said Kaluuya had ended his relationship with his previous agency and publicists amid concerns about Mahmoud's influence. However, a Hollywood executive close to the actor said Kaluuya hasn't disappeared but is simply following his own path, focusing on smaller films, writing, and producing rather than mainstream blockbusters. ‌ Currently, Kaluuya is involved in the upcoming Spider-Verse animated film and is developing a live-action movie based on the children's character Barney. He is now represented by the William Morris Endeavor agency and has several projects underway through his production company, 59%. Raised on a council estate in north London by his Ugandan single mother, Kaluuya began his career in British television before gaining international recognition with Jordan Peele's 2017 film Get Out, which earned him Oscar and BAFTA nominations. ‌ When asked about the cult rumours in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Kaluuya said: 'It showed me that I was in a paradigm of fame. An unnamed, unverified source has more credibility than what is actually said and the truth of the situation... That's not what happened.' Heir Holiness also denied the cult allegations, calling Kaluuya 'family' and saying, 'They made it up. It was very shocking... My main thing was to make sure he's safe and able to do his work. All of it is fake.' Born in London in 1989 to Ugandan parents, the actor grew up on a Camden council estate. He attended Torriano Primary School, St Aloysius' College, and Camden School for Girls in its co-educational sixth-form for his A-levels. From a young age, he had a passion for acting, writing his first play at nine and studying the art at the Anna Scher Theatre School. Kaluuya began acting professionally in 2006, gaining early fame for his role as Posh Kenneth in Skins and appearing in shows like Doctor Who and Silent Witness before breaking into film.

'I saw real Bonnie Blue behind closed doors - there's one dark truth people don't see'

As a new Channel 4 documentary delves into the shocking real world of Bonnie Blue, mirror writer Ellie Fry argues that the viral adult star's dark influence over young men and women is painfully ignored Sat in a cosy cinema room packed full of press, Bonnie Blue, real name Tia Billinger, seems to be in her element. ‌ As her famous face and bright blonde curls pop up on the big screen, us viewers have no idea what's in store as we sit down to watch one of the biggest adult stars in the world appear in a brand new Channel 4 documentary, which promises to deliver full access to the real life of Bonnie Blue. ‌ But sitting there alongside her "proud" mum, other family members and small team, Bonnie knows all too well that the extreme sex empire she's painstakingly crafted is about to become even more mainstream, as the broadcaster has spared no blushes in its fly-on-the-wall hour-long show, titled "1000 Men and Me: The Bonnie Blue Story". ‌ Her life behind the scenes and the inner workings of her multi-million pound businesss have been shrouded in mystery until now. But one thing Bonnie's always been desperate to promote are her extreme sex challenges. The star's troubling social media strategy, where she posts aggressively across platforms like Instagram and TikTok, means that everyone - including young girls and boys - can easily stumble across a glimpse of her explicit content, where she boasts about sleeping with married men and being "helpless" as men "take her". ‌ Sadly, Channel 4's deep dive does little to hold Bonnie accountable for the undeniable responsibilities she has as a world famous adult star promoting potentially dangerous sex stunts on social media. Our online landscape is already teeming with violent porn and unhealthy perceptions of sex, and in this bleak attention economy of viral videos and views, it seems as though there's no limit to how far Bonnie will push herself. ‌ Chillingly, the star's whole business model centres around sleeping with 'normal' men in amateur videos. What struck me watching the film is the horrifying juxtaposition of going to such extreme, unrealistic measures with everyday members of the public. Bonnie positions herself as somewhat of a saviour - relishing in giving the average man a chance to sleep with a porn star, or "teaching barely legal" virgins how to perform in the bedroom. ‌ She says in the doc: "I found my purpose in porn. I found the niche I want to focus on. And it's not just because I'm obsessed with 18-year-olds, it was such a bigger picture in terms of teaching them how to have sex; watching their face light up as they lost their virginity. I really love that." But while these gritty, 'homemade' scenes may seem real - and earn Bonnie millions of pounds - the relatability ends at the amateurs involved. The star's extreme stunts - from sleeping with 1,057 men in a day and planning to cage herself in a glass box in a sex 'petting zoo' - are merely perpetuating dangerous myths about what women need to do for their partners - and what men should expect in the bedroom. ‌ In a bid to brush away her critics, who have questioned the ethics and power dynamic in her content, Bonnie says that she talks about consent until she's blue in the face, insisting that every participant has to sign a consent form and show ID before taking part. But I can't help but notice her thirst for control over the participants she chooses - notably people who are not in the porn industry, or have never filmed such extreme content before - and wonder where that stems from. ‌ It seems as though she deliberately profits from the vulnerability and innocence of the young men and women who agree to appear in her films. And this connection to the everyday public is exactly where that danger lies - it feels so within reach, despite being so extreme. The star's ex husband Oliver Davidson, who appears fleetingly in the film, explains her strategy perfectly. "She really connects with the fans," he says. "Most people, if they do porn, they seem out of reach. You're never going to meet them. You're never going to be able to film with them. Whereas Bonnie puts a location online, and then obviously her fans can actually film with her. It's like a defining moment in porn, where she's completely changed the game." ‌ But the normalisation of such severe porn will soon seep into the psyche of young people being fed the content by the giants at Meta and TikTok. And this marketing strategy puts Bonnie at risk too. The star admits in the film that she hasn't left the house alone in the last six months, and fears being attacked by acid on the street. The documentary is radically uncensored in its depiction of Bonnie's work and shows explicit sex scenes, something Channel 4 says is "editorially justified" and "presented in a non-gratuitous manner". ‌ Seeing what happens behind the scenes is no doubt shocking, but it's the lesser known 'challenges' involving young women that are more disturbing to me. In the show, the more viral Bonnie gets, the further she leans into these extreme sex acts, as she begins relying on the use of young girls in her content. One scene shows Bonnie filming a sex tape with multiple other young female OnlyFans creators and a male porn star. Interviewing the women who have been recruited to take part in the stunt, filmed in a school classroom, the documentary's director reveals that the creators aren't being paid to take part. ‌ One young woman, who profits on OnlyFans with solo work and content with her partner, tells the camera that she's never done anything this "adventurous" and looks visibly nervous. Another timidly admits that the only time she's ever seen live sex is in Amsterdam in the red light district. A third creator, a 21-year-old woman, admits her subscribers love her content because she looks so much younger than she is. ‌ In an admission that makes my stomach churn, Bonnie says of the classroom stunt: "The fact that they are so nervous actually works in my favour, because their reactions are going to be more realistic." Bonnie seems to relish in stamping out the innocence of her participants. Yes, they've all consented. But the undercurrent of exploitation, in a classroom full of young women who have never filmed porn before, never mind extreme content, feels palpable. What message does that send out to young boys watching her videos, whose perceptions of consent and power are being shaped by such content? To me, the star appears to hide behind the guise of empowerment - both of herself and virgins, young content creators and 'normal' men - when in reality she is profiting from their vulnerability and glorifying rape culture with her 'challenges'. ‌ Her petting zoo stunt, that got cancelled after OnlyFans decided to permanently ban her from its platform at the final hour, would have seen Bonnie "tied down" in a glass box in a house in London, where strangers would come and do "whatever they wanted". Bonnie bragged in the documentary: "I am going to be completely helpless, tied down, gagged, choked". Alarmingly, a recent government review found porn involving non-fatal strangulation (NFS) was "rife" and that its prevalence online was contributing to choking becoming commonplace in some people's sex lives - particularly among young people. ‌ Even more disturbingly, the UK courts have seen an alarming rise in women's lives ending after what those accused of their deaths say were 'sex games gone wrong'. To the feminists who challenge her behaviour, Bonnie hits back, saying in the doc: "You fought for women's rights for years and years. You've fought for us to have control over our body and be empowered by that. I'm now living by that. "And suddenly you want me to shut up, have a couple of kids, get married and stay quiet, but I don't want that. If anything, I'm an image of what you've just been asking for for years and years. And suddenly you see it, and you're now thinking, f***, we don't want this woman to speak proudly of sex." ‌ As a woman who openly brags about using rage-bait as the cornerstone of her business model, spamming multiple TikTok and Instagram accounts a day with content designed to outrage, it's hard to take anything Bonnie says seriously. But she certainly refuses to take any responsibility for the influence she may have over the younger generation. When asked how she feels about young teenagers coming across her content, Bonnie admits she "forgets" to think of it from that point of view. ‌ She then says bluntly: "There's also a parent's responsibility to say, hey, there's people in the world that do mass murders. [It] doesn't mean you do that." Even if it's not Bonnie's job to educate young people on safe and healthy sex, there's something sinister in wanting to profit from those who may be vulnerable. In one part of the show, she admits: "I really want to do a disabled gang bang". Rage-bait or not, where do we draw the line at accepting such statements? And who is being "empowered" here? Channel 4 failed to press Bonnie on that vile remark. It's a show that leaves more questions than answers, and feels more like an advert than a documentary. It's too early to say just how much of an impact this new trend of extreme sex stunts will have on young people, but it feels like a nightmare waiting to happen - and, as the show does thankfully note, Bonnie clearly has no interest in taking accountability for the fallout.
