Astronomer CEO Andy Byron resigns amid kiss-cam scandal, affair allegations
NEW YORK — Astronomer CEO Andy Byron has resigned from the DataOps company after the kiss-cam at a Coldplay concert captured his presumed affair with a woman believed to be his head of HR. The company confirmed in a statement shared with the Daily News on Saturday that Byron had stepped down. 'As stated previously, Astronomer is committed to the values and culture that have guided us since our founding. Our leaders are expected to set the standard in both conduct and accountability, and recently, that standard was not met,' the statement said. 'Andy Byron has tendered his resignation, and the Board of Directors has accepted.' The company said it would begin a search for its next leader, while its co-founder and Chief Product Officer Pete DeJoy will step in to serve as interim CEO. 'While awareness of our company may have changed overnight, our product and our work for our customers have not,' Astronomer continued. 'We're continuing to do what we do best: helping our customers with their toughest data and AI problems.' Astronomer has been making headlines since Wednesday, when Coldplay frontman Chris Martin pointed to a man and a woman seen cuddling up on the kiss-cam at the band's concert in Boston. Upon realizing they were on the jumbotron, the woman quickly hid her face while the man ducked down and out of frame, sparking speculation about their relationship. 'Oh, look at these two,' Martin said. 'Either they're having an affair, or they're just very shy.' Savvy social media users quickly identified the man as Byron — who's married and reportedly shares two kids with Megan Kerrigan Byron — and the woman as his Chief People Officer, Kristin Cabot. In the wake of the incident, footage of the moment went viral online and numerous fake statements attributed to the CEO circulated on social media. News of Byron's resignation comes one day after Astronomer released a legitimate statement announcing it had launched a formal investigation into the debacle.

Ex-Eagles safety C.J. Gardner-Johnson drops 2-word message to fans after receiving SB ring
Shortly after winning Super Bowl LIX, the Philadelphia Eagles surprisingly unloaded starting safety C.J. Gardner-Johnson in a trade with the Houston Texans. The always candid CJGJ reacted as you might expect, stating this off-season that the Eagles are 'scared of a competitor' and would never win another championship without him. Gardner-Johnson recently apologized to his former teammates for those comments during a sit-down interview with ESPN's Ryan Clark. The organization was unfazed, as CJGJ was in attendance for the Eagles' Super Bowl ring ceremony on Friday night. CJGJ posted a photo of his ring with a celebratory two-word message — 'Hi haters 😮💨' — to fans on his social media. MORE: Gardner-Johnson has never been shy about using his social accounts or the media to speak his mind. He unleashed a pretty epic rant after Philly's Week 3 win over the Saints last season, calling his former team 'pretenders' and mocking their 2-0 start. He also mocked Travis Kelce, Taylor Swift and 'Swifties' after the Eagles' blowout win over the Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX, doubling down with a custom hoodie during Philly's championship parade. Some of those antics probably make people forget that Gardner-Johnson piled up six interceptions for the No. 1 ranked Eagles defense in 2024. The Eagles were clearly ready to move on after the Super Bowl, moving CJGJ under the guise of 'salary cap savings.' Still, it was a good look for everyone to have CJGJ in attendance on Friday night, and no one can take away his 2024 Super Bowl ring.

The 29-year-old took to the internet to see if he handed the situation correctlyNEED TO KNOW A man told his pregnant friend that he wasn't comfortable with her naming her baby after him The 29-year-old took to the internet to see if he had handled the situation correctly However, commenters were split, with most noting that he doesn't have ownership over a nameA man was shocked after a friend from college revealed they were planning to name their baby after him. The 29-year-old explained on Reddit that their "close friend" from college is expecting their first child. The man notes that they've 'stayed friends over the years' and are "definitely still in touch and supportive," but not 'super tight." 'She messaged me last week saying they'd picked out a name for the baby — my name. I was a bit taken aback," the poster writes. "She said I'd always been a 'constant' and someone she admired for being grounded. It was meant as a compliment and a gesture." However, the man said 'it made [him] weirdly uncomfortable.' 'The idea of a kid being named after me — especially when we're not that close anymore — just felt a bit strange,' he shares. 'I told her I was flattered but that I didn't really feel comfortable with it. She seemed hurt and replied with something like 'it's not about you, it's for my son.' ' Now, the man feels like he 'made a big deal out of something that was meant kindly.' However, at the same time, he notes that it 'feels weird having no say in someone using your name that way.'

Most people in the comments, however, felt like no one was in the wrong, explaining that he has a right to feel uneasy about it, but also has no ownership of the name. 'Maybe she just likes the name and thought she'd let you know because many people would enjoy that. You don't have to give your name up or anything,' one person commented, to which the poster replied, 'Yeah maybe you're right.' Another person suggested he "call her back" and let her know that he is "very flattered" that she likes his name. "Smooth it out with some love," they wrote. "She obviously thinks you're special. Embrace it.' Several other people also highlighted that there are likely thousands, if not millions, of people with the same name. "The harsh truth here is that she's right. This isn't about you and this baby's name is entirely up to the parents,' a third commenter wrote. Read the original article on People Solve the daily Crossword
