Astronomer clapped back at Coldplay with a PR masterstroke starring Chris Martin's ex-wife Gwyneth Paltrow after the viral kiss cam incident
In a move no one saw coming, Gwyneth Paltrow is now the face of Astronomer, temporarily, of course. The Oscar-winning actress appeared in a video shared by the DataOps company on July 25, delivering a cheeky message about recent "questions" the company has been receiving. But instead of addressing the elephant in the room (a.k.a. an alleged office romance exposed on a jumbotron), she swerved hard into data talk. The company that fired their CEO for cheating on his wife with the head of HR at a Coldplay concert just hired Gwyneth Paltrow who is the singer's ex-wife 😭PR masterclass Gwyneth Paltrow enters the viral kiss cam controversy at Coldplay concert chat Paltrow joked about being hired on a "very temporary basis" to speak for the company's 300+ employees. She deadpanned that Astronomer was thrilled by the public's sudden interest in data workflow automation and even plugged their upcoming DataOps conference. Iconic behaviour, honestly. What does Gwyneth Paltrow know 😭?? Astronomer's office scandal goes viral on Coldplay's stage The drama began on July 15, when Coldplay's Chris Martin spotted two audience members caught looking way too cosy on the jumbotron. When they saw themselves on the big screen, the man ducked and the woman bolted, prompting Martin to joke that they were either shy or having an affair. Unfortunately for them, the internet exists. Viewers quickly identified the pair as Astronomer CEO Andy Byron and Chief People Officer Kristin Cabot, both of whom are married to other people. The clip, originally posted by a concertgoer, exploded across TikTok and X, turning a Coldplay show into a corporate meltdown. The aftermath, resignations and reactions Following the viral moment, Byron resigned on July 19 after an internal investigation. Astronomer confirmed he had failed to meet company conduct standards. Cabot soon followed suit, stepping down on July 24. Neither has publicly addressed the scandal. Internet users, however, could not get enough. X was flooded with applause for Astronomer's damage control. One user called it 'amazing crisis management,' while another dubbed it a 'PR masterclass.' Astronomer's CFO seeing the bill from Gwyneth Paltrow Paltrow's power move Paltrow, ever the queen of reinvention, managed to take the spotlight off the affair and shine it on the company's actual product. She shut down spicy questions mid-video and refocused the message, saying Astronomer is now going back to doing what it does best: delivering data-driven results. Goop who?

Chris Evans and wife Alba Baptista expecting their first child together? Actress' dad's comment sparks pregnancy rumours
Hollywood star Chris Evans and his wife, Portuguese actor Alba Baptista , might just be gearing up to welcome the newest member of their family. The actor, best known for his role as the Marvel hero 'Captain America', is reportedly expecting his first child with wife, Alba. The buzz about the actress' pregnancy spread like wildfire after a cryptic social media comment went viral. The pregnancy rumours began circulating after a fan club posted a Father's Day tribute and tagged Baptista's father, Luiz Baptista, and Evans' father, Bob Evans. It was on this post that Luiz commented a rather sweet message that caught fans' attention. Replying to the post, Luiz seemingly made a casual remark, 'Your turn is coming,' which many interpreted as a subtle hint that the couple may be just be gearing up to welcome their first child together. — mentallynotici (@mentallynotici) A screenshot of the reply soon went viral on social media handles, with fans of the Marvel actor and the 'Warrior Nun' star sharing their excitement. Some even claimed that close family members had begun dropping clues online, though no such posts have been verified. If the rumours are true, then it won't come as a surprise to Evans' fans. The hunk has made no secret about his desire to start a family. Calling fatherhood 'something I absolutely look forward to,' the actor shared his desire to be a dad and give his kid the kind of upbringing he had. Chris and Alba tied the knot in an intimate ceremony in Portugal in 2023 and have kept much of their relationship out of the spotlight. Choosing to lead a relatively private life, they made their first red carpet appearance at an Oscar party in 2024.
