Elon Musk has reacted to CEO Andy Byron\u2019s fake statement after the shocking \u2018ColdplayGate\u2019 scandal.<\/p>\n

A clip of Astronomer CEO Andy Byron and HR head Kristin Cabot looking cozy at a Coldplay concert has gone viral on social media<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The pair were filmed appearing on the big screen during a \u2018kiss cam\u2019 portion of the concert where lead singer Chris Martin serenades attendees.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

However, when Byron and Cabot were shown on camera, they seemed to be shocked and quickly moved to hide themselves from view.<\/p>\n

At the time, Martin joked that they were \u2018either having an affair\u2019 or really shy.<\/p>\n

Since then, internet sleuths have discovered that they are actually colleagues and are married to other people.<\/p>\n

It looks like even the likes of Musk<\/a> are taking the opportunity to poke fun at Byron and Cabot after a fake statement from the CEO did the rounds on X, formerly Twitter<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n

A screenshot of the fake apology had people believe that Byron was actually apologizing for being a Coldplay fan.<\/p>\n

In the fake statement, it said: \u201cI want to acknowledge the moment that’s been circulating online, and the disappointment it’s caused.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat was supposed to be a night of music and joy turned into a deeply personal mistake play-out out on a very public stage. I want to sincerely apologize to my wife, my family, and my team at Astronomer. You deserve better from me as a partner, as a father, and as a leader.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is not who I want to be or how I want to represent the company I helped build. I’m taking time to reflect, take accountability, and figure out the next steps, personally and professionally. I ask for privacy as I navigate that process.<\/p>\n

\u201cI also want to express how troubling it is that what should have been a private moment became public without my consent. I respect artists and entertainers, but I hope we can all think more deeply about the impact of turning someone else’s life into a spectacle.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs a friend once sang: ‘Lights will guide you home, and ignite your bones, and I will try to fix you.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n

Musk reacted to the joke with a crying laughing emoji.<\/p>\n

In reality, neither of the executives have publicly spoken out about the incident.<\/p>\n

Many people have taken to social media themselves to react to the footage, with one user writing on TikTok<\/a>: \u201cWe need people that knows these people spilling the tea right now.\u201d<\/p>\n

Another joked: \u201cHe went from smiling to frowning faster than the blood drained from his face.\u201d<\/p>\n

A third person commented: \u201cI would pay to be at the office today.\u201d<\/p>\n

A fourth said: \u201cCan we just take a moment to recognize Chris\u2019s instinctual and factual observation of the situation.\u201d<\/p>\n

And another user added: \u201cBet if they didn\u2019t react, none this would\u2019ve been viral.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
