Lisa Wilkinson is caught in her own 'Coldplay kiss cam' moment - but all is not what it seems
And now Lisa Wilkinson has been busted in her own ' Coldplay concert kiss can' moment - though it's all in good fun.
The television host attended American comedian Nikki Glaser's comedy gig on Saturday night when she took part in a staged gag that poked fun at Astronomer CEO Andy Byron, who was caught cuddling company's HR chief Kristin Cabot at a Coldplay gig last week.
Glaser had her own kiss cam at the show, panning around the audience as part of some amusing crowd work.
'Let's see if we have one more we can find. Can we zoom in?' she said at the camera panned to Lisa, who was being cuddled from behind by comedian Hamish Blake.
'Is that ... is that ... is that Hamish and Lisa!? Oooooh, busted!' Nikki joked.
'Someone call Zoe right now. What the f***?' she added, refferring to Hamish's wife, Zoe Foster Blake.
Lisa and Hamish were clearly having a laugh, with Lisa later sharing the footage on Instagram.
'Bloody cameras are everywhere!' she joked in her caption alongside the clip.
It comes after news that Andy Byron has resigned in disgrace amid an investigation into the scandal.
Byron, 50, who was spotted on camera at the concert with his arms wrapped around Cabot, stepped down after being placed on leave on Friday.
The billion-dollar company announced the CEO's resignation in a statement on Saturday.
'As stated previously, Astronomer is committed to the values and culture that have guided us since our founding,' the statement read.
'Our leaders are expected to set the standard in both conduct and accountability, and recently, that standard was not met.
'Andy Byron has tendered his resignation, and the Board of Directors has accepted.'
Byron and Cabot were caught red-faced as the kiss cam at a Coldplay concert in Boston panned to the CEO with his arms wrapped his subordinate on Tuesday.
The pair immediately ducked and turned from the cameras after realizing their faces were on the big screen.

Aussie actress calls criticism of her ‘gothic' Logies dress ‘anti-woman'
Chloé Hayden has hit back at critics who slammed her eye-catching Logies dress. The Heartbreak High actress, 28, turned more than a few heads when she stepped onto the red carpet at The Star in Sydney on Sunday night. She wore a gothic-inspired dress from Australian label Romance Was Born that featured bat-like sleeves and a black lace corset. The unique garment also featured a flouncy skirt that was festooned with butterfly wings and sequinned embellishments. The dress also covered Chloé's legs with sheer black lace that finished at her feet, which she adorned with knee-high black boots. Amping up the quirk factor, Chloé also made the odd choice to include a prosthetic hand – complete with stitched, gnarled fingernails and a black bow tie. Taking to her Instagram Threads in the wake of Australian television's night of nights, Chloé revealed she had seen 'hundreds' of social media comments critiquing her unique look. 'I have literally seen HUNDREDS of comments talking about how bad my Logies dress was because it's "unflattering". Why is this the goal?' Chloé asked. 'Why does my goal have to be to wear the most flattering outfit for my body? Why isn't the goal of looking like a gothic butterfly enough? That is exponentially cooler.' She also had some strong words for her detractors with: 'Anyway, anyone that thought it was ugly is old and boring.' In a statement to Pedestrian, Chloé said criticism of her Logies garb was 'anti-woman'. She said the negative commentary: 'stems from a place of purely patriarchal, misogynistic and anti-woman backing, and I find that both quite scary and deeply depressing.' Chloé added: 'God forbid a woman's first thought when putting clothes on isn't "I hope this makes me take up the least amount of space".' 'Personally, this dress was my favourite dress I've ever worn. I felt beautiful, I felt like myself, and I had fun.' Taking to her Instagram Threads in the wake of Australian television's night of nights, Chloé revealed she had seen 'hundreds' of social media comments critiquing her unique look It seems that many of Chloé's fans agreed with her sentiment, taking to her Threads post to praise the actress's Logies attire. 'Just looked. Love your dress. Goth (or goth-like) is definitely the 2025 edge. Well done,' one fan offered. Another chimed in with an acerbic: 'You know what totally rocks? Wearing what YOU want! F*** those haters. You are a glorious human!!' A third praised Chloé's unique sense of style with: 'Love that you don't conform and are the perfect example of dopamine dressing!' Chloé was nominated for a Best Supporting Actress Silver Logie for her turn as Quinni in Netflix's Heartbreak High, losing out to Fisk star Julia Zemiro. It's not the first time Chloé has endured the darker side of the internet, with the actress stepping away from social media in 2023 after receiving death threats. 'Due to recent events, moving forward, my team will be managing and monitoring all my social accounts,' she told fans at the time. 'Over the last year, I have been inundated with several dozen death threats, detailed suicide prompts and horrific, intricate abuse each and every day.' She continued: 'It's inescapable and is deeply effecting my mental and physical well-being.' Chloé went on to say her team will be 'monitoring and reporting all hate speech and threatening language to federal authorities'. 'It is vital for you all to know that this behaviour isn't tolerated. I'm aware multiple of you have received similar messages, and I urge you to do the same,' she added. Chloé said her platform was always 'welcoming, safe and an open haven' but these 'values aren't shown right now'. 'My connection and communication with you all is something I've always found so special, and that I cherish and value so deeply; but is something we don't currently have the privilege of doing,' she continued. 'My hope is we can get back to that, but for now, in order to keep my community and myself safe, it is vital for me to take these steps.'

Pretty In Pink: Kylie Minogue, 57, shows off jaw-dropping figure in form-fitting jumpsuit on stage in Buenos Aires
showed off her jaw-dropping figure when she stepped on stage in Buenos Aires this week. The Australian-born hitmaker, 57, appeared to be making up for lost time, with the performance in the Argentine capital on Friday being her first there in 17 years. It was a welcome return for Kylie, too, with fans giving her a sold-out reception at the 14,000-seat Movistar Arena. Kylie looked absolutely stunning for the performance, stepping out in an all-pink ensemble. She wore a bright pink leather jumpsuit that featured a corseted bodice and sheer pink sleeves festooned with sequins. She tied the ensemble together with a similarly coloured belt with a silver buckle. The Padam Padam hitmaker also gave quite a leggy display, thanks to large splits on the leg, with undone press studs. There was also a punk element to Kylie's stage get-up, with the garment also boasting an array of silver chains dangling from her belt loops. Kylie finished her look with a pair of pink stilettos and a pair of elbow-length gloves. Her stage look was completed with a dramatic smoky eye and a light rose shade on her lip. Kylie appeared very much in her element, beaming at the sold-out crowd as she belted out her litany of hits. Taking to Instagram following the performance, Kylie gushed about the Argentinian crowd. 'Buenos Aires, how do you describe a feeling? I've only ever dreamt of this. WHAT A SHOW!! Thank you so much. I'll see you tomorrow Chile-e-e,' she excitedly wrote. Kylie was showing no signs of the illness that forced her to cancel a run of shows back in June. She wore a bright pink leather jumpsuit that featured a corseted bodice and sheer pink sleeves festooned with sequins After completing her string of UK concerts, Kylie cancelled shows in Berlin, Lodz, Kaunas and Tallinn, after being diagnosed with laryngitis. Kylie wrote on Instagram: 'Hi Lovers, as some of you may know, a week ago we finished the UK leg of the Tension Tour. I made it over the finish line (yay) but unfortunately have succumbed to a viral infection (Hello laryngitis). 'I've tried my best to recover fast to start our next run on Monday but I'm afraid it will take me some days to be well enough to get back on stage and perform the best for you.' Confirming they would take place on another date, Kylie added: 'I'm so, SO sorry! I have no choice but to postpone the shows in Berlin, Lodz, Kaunas and Tallinn as scheduled. 'Please keep hold of your tickets, we're doing our very best to reschedule the dates and will update you very soon on that. 'Thank you for understanding - you know I love you all. And I LOVE THIS SHOW! And I'll miss you next week, and I can't wait to see you all. Love Kylie xx' Her shows are split into five acts, with the star kicking things off with her 2024 single Lights Camera Action before going into other hits like In Your Eyes, Get Outta My Way, and Spinning Around. The star is the highest-selling Australian female artist of all time and the third best-selling in the UK, but has only now begun to make a name for herself in the US following the success of her viral 2023 hit Padam Padam. However, her record label revealed in 2023 that the singer now has her eyes firmly set on cracking the US market. Padam Padam and follow-up album Tension helped turn her fortunes around in America and landed her a Grammy, a second number one on the US Billboard Top Dance/Electronic Albums chart and a Las Vegas residency. Speaking about her lack of success in the US Kylie said, in 2022, she had 'resigned myself to the fact that America wouldn't be like the rest of the world for me'.

Oasis 'shocked and saddened' after man dies at Wembley Stadium concert
Oasis have said they are "shocked and saddened to hear of the tragic death of a fan" at their Wembley Stadium concert on Saturday. Together with their bandmates, Liam and Noel Gallagher have offered their "sincere condolences to the family and friends of the person involved". Metropolitan Police said officers on duty at the stadium responded, alongside venue medics and the London Ambulance Service, to reports a person had been injured at around 10.20pm. The statement continued: "A man - aged in his 40s - was found with injuries consistent with a fall. He was sadly pronounced dead at the scene." According to media reports, the man fell from the stadium's upper tier. A concertgoer on social media said they saw the incident and described it as "horrific". Metropolitan Police said: "The stadium was busy, and we believe it is likely a number of people witnessed the incident, or may knowingly or unknowingly have caught it on mobile phone video footage. "If you have any information that could help us to confirm what happened, please call 101." Oasis performed at the venue as planned on Sunday night, delivering the final concert of a five-night run at Wembley. Addressing fans at the stadium, singer Liam said: "This one's for all the people who can't be here tonight, but who are here if you know what I mean, and aren't they looking lovely. Live Forever." The band then played the track of the same name. Oasis support act Richard Ashcroft paid tribute on Instagram, writing: "I was shocked to hear of the death of one of the audience last night sending my love to the family and friends." A spokesperson for Wembley Stadium said: "Our thoughts go out to his family, who have been informed and are being supported by specially trained police officers." They will then head to Scotland, Ireland, Canada and the United States, before returning to Wembley for two more dates in September. The reunion tour began at the start of July and marks the Gallagher brothers' first performances together since Oasis split acrimoniously in 2009.
