Coldplay kiss cam scandal executive says lead singer did not reach out to her: ‘Nope. Never did’

Coldplay kiss cam scandal executive Kristin Cabot says lead singer Chris Martin did not reach out to her: 'Nope. Never did'

A corporate executive who went viral after a Coldplay “kiss cam” moment says she is now done with the band, claiming frontman Chris Martin never reached out to her after the incident.Kristin Cabot told TMZ she has no interest in attending another Coldplay concert and would have appreciated some form of contact from the singer following the episode that made her an internet sensation.“Would have been great,” Cabot said when asked by reporter Colin Drummond whether she would have welcomed a check-in.“Nope. Never did!” she added when asked if Martin had contacted her.The 53-year-old also made it clear she is finished with the band. “No, I’m all set,” she said.Cabot was seen last year at a Coldplay concert in what appeared to be an embrace with her boss, Andy Byron, then chief executive of tech company Astronomer. The moment was captured on the stadium kiss cam and quickly went viral after the pair appeared to separate and hide their faces when they realised they were on screen.Cabot has since pushed back on that narrative. In a recent interview with Oprah, she said both she and Byron were separated from their spouses at the time and suggested the situation had been misinterpreted. She also said her husband had been present at the concert.“That would have been better, at the end of the day, if I had just run into him,” she said, adding that the experience had a serious impact on her personal life.“For me and my family, what happened was not okay,” Cabot said. “And I felt like by remaining silent, it was somehow accepting what had happened.”In an earlier interview with the New York Times, she described feeling “so embarrassed and horrified.”Despite the backlash, Cabot has continued to speak publicly about the incident. She recently appeared in Washington DC at the PRWeek Crisis Comms Conference, where she delivered a talk titled, “Kristin Cabot: Taking Back The Narrative.”Her former boss Andy Byron has stayed out of public view and has not commented since the viral moment.Cabot has also criticised a separate Astronomer advertisement featuring Hollywood figures Gwyneth Paltrow and Ryan Reynolds, which referenced the incident in a humorous way. She told Oprah she was unhappy with the campaign.
