Viral social media account pretending to be Coldplay concert CEO's daughter exposed as fake
The account, @marinagirll, appeared two days ago, shortly after the infamous Coldplay kiss cam moment which caught former Astronomer CEO Andy Bryon hugging the company's head of HR Kristin Cabot.
The account captioned one viral video, 'Reconnecting with life after your dad's affair makes national news' with the woman tying her hair up whilst standing at an outside fire pit, which angered many users on TikTok.
One commentor said 'Wow imagines using your dad's affair to get famous. You're a nobody lol. Check in on your mom maybe... ?"
TikToker Lizthemillienial posted a video saying the video was not real.
A photo posted by his wife to Facebook shows Mr Bryon with his two sons, but there were no posts or photos that prove that he has a daughter.
The videos on the Marina Bryon account were allegedly taken from the social media of a French model and singer-songwriter, Julie Tuzet.
Miss Tuzet, who lives in Paris, posted to TikTok that she is not the CEO's daughter.
She said, 'Guys, I am not the CEO's daughter. You probably saw this video of me at a fireplace reconnecting with nature. It's just someone who stole my videos and content from TikTok to create this fake news, and it's going viral.
The TikTok account comes after Mr Byron resigned as CEO of Astronomer, an AI tech firm based in New York.
The firm posted a statement to X over the weekend stating that they were investigating the video after the incident at Coldplay's Boston concert went viral.
It is unclear whether or not Ms Cabot will be forced to resign, but she currently remains in post whilst the investigation is ongoing.

Moby teams-up with Russian teen star for new single
Moby relished the experience of collaborating across timezones with Øneheart. The 59-year-old star joined forces with Øneheart, one of the Russian producers behind Snowfall, the TikTok hit, to record lagrange point, and Moby has admitted to loving the experience of working across borders and timezones with the young star. He said: "One of my favourite things about collaborating with Øneheart was the fact that as i was working on lagrange point as the sun was setting in Los Angeles, Dmitry was working on it as the sun was rising where he lived in Russia." Moby - whose real name is Richard Hall - observed that he worked on the track while enjoying the "perfect backdrop" in Los Angeles. The music star explained: "The fact that this quiet, spacious music was travelling instantaneously through 12 timezones and thousands and thousands of empty miles of air and space somehow created the perfect backdrop for the collaboration." lagrange point is the lead single for the album Samsara Passengers, which is a collaboration between Øneheart, Dean Korso and Leadwave - Øneheart's dad - along with guest artists. Moby has already sold more than 20 million records in his career and is credited with helping to bring dance music to a mainstream audience in the 90s. However, he acknowledged earlier this year that fame and fortune are "two of the most destructive forces on the planet". Speaking from his home in Los Angeles, Moby told Sky News: "I think fame and fortune are, probably, empirically two of the most destructive forces on the planet. I mean, if fame and fortune fixed things, Kurt Cobain and Amy Winehouse would still be making records. "I guess it's a very easy system to buy into, especially in a place like... in New York, in Los Angeles, in these big cities that are driven by ostentation and consumption and the need for external validation. It's hard to resist those temptations. But then ... you look at the consequences of that. "I'd rather try and live a rational life and not necessarily let other people's concerns dictate what my concerns should be."

Owner of ‘most famous Lambo in Australia' breaks silence after daring overnight heist
A gym owner who flaunted his luxury Lamborghini on TikTok has spoken exclusively to 7NEWS after the $750,000 supercar was stolen in a daring overnight theft. Queensland Police allege the custom purple-and-mauve Lamborghini Urus was taken from a property in Elimbah, about an hour north of Brisbane, just after 10.40pm on July 23. The Lamborghini Urus had previously featured in videos posted by the owner David Stearman on TikTok. But for Stearman the flashy SUV was more than a status symbol. 'It's just a theatrical experience and you don't get sick of it,' he told 7NEWS. 'Every single person that drives past … rubbernecks. The second you go anywhere … people ask: What do you do? How do I get that? Can I see it?'' Stearman's car is one of only 47 of its kind in the world. The Lamborghini Urus has a starting price of around $400,000, with the base model capable of hitting 100km/h in just 3.6 seconds. Stearman's customised version was worth closer to $750,000 and had become a local icon, often seen at charity rides and Sunday cruises. But that fame came at a cost. Investigators believe thieves forced their way into the garage before fleeing with the rare vehicle. CCTV captured a hooded man entering his home as Stearman slept. 'It's kids having the best joyride of their lives, or it's a super-genius that's really thought this one through,' Stearman said. 'It's pretty much the most famous Lambo in Australia right now, so I don't think anyone's putting it on the road again.' 'Because it's so extra, so over the top in so many ways, it's not something that's easy to hide. I just hope it was worth it.' The loss has left him questioning whether the luxury car lifestyle is worth the risk. 'Insurance will cover the financial hit, but then there's the emotional toll,' he admitted. Other personal items were also reported stolen. 'They also took a $100,000 watch, designer bags and bank cards,' Stearman said.

Popular Perth ribs joint launches viral Dubai choc desserts
A Perth restaurant, known for its American-style barbecue ribs, is causing a stir among the food community following the launch of its viral Dubai chocolate-inspired desserts. The head chef at Ribs Lane was inspired by the viral Dubai chocolate taking social media feeds by storm to create rich, over-the-top treats for dessert lovers wanting in on the global obsession. The Dubai chocolate sweet treat craze recently popped off on TikTok thanks to influencers promoting Dubai chocolate — a chocolate bar containing a filling made with kadayif and pistachio — created by Emirati Fix Dessert Chocolatier in Dubai. Head chef Nicka Isabella said the team saw the trend explode overseas and wanted to create something that would give Perth a taste of the hype. 'It's not just about going viral. These desserts taste as good as they look. Perth deserves its own over-the-top dessert experience, and this is it,' she said. The desserts are unapologetically extra. Credit: Jay Turks Each dessert features house-made elements and Ribs Lane's signature drizzle, crafted to mimic the iconic Dubai-style presentations but with a Ribs Lane twist. 'These desserts are unapologetically extra and that's exactly what we wanted,' Nicka said. 'We've developed our own special recipe and flavour profile that's got people returning again and again. They are indulgent, fun, and impossible to ignore - both on the table and on social media.' People with a sweet tooth can indulge in viral Dubai chocolate loukamades ($17), waffles ($17) and cups ($15). The Ribs Lane Subiaco location will also offer a dessert pizza ($23).
