The recent Coldplay concert in Massachusetts has ignited a notable increase in searches related to infidelity on Pornhub. Following a viral moment captured on the “kiss cam,” where Andy Byron, the CEO of Astronomer, and Kristin Cabot, the Chief People Officer, were seen sharing an intimate kiss, online interest in adult content related to cheating and office affairs surged.
The incident, which unfolded at Gillette Stadium during a performance by the British band, quickly caught the attention of social media users. Many responded with memes and humorous commentary, while others expressed curiosity about more risqué themes. Pornhub reported significant spikes in search terms directly associated with the situation that unfolded on March 13, 2024. Searches for “office affair” increased by 18%, while “office sex” saw a rise of 21% within just 24 hours after the footage was released.
Additionally, interest in the terms “caught cheating” and “cheating husband” rose by 22% and 29%, respectively. Notably, the term “cheating couple” experienced the most dramatic increase, soaring by an impressive 31%. This surge in searches reflects a public fascination with the scandal, as users appear to seek out content that mirrors the unexpected romance of the Astronomer executives.
Footage of Byron and Cabot, which was obtained by TMZ, shows them enjoying the concert, laughing, and embracing during the band’s hit song “Yellow.” The video has contributed to the buzz surrounding their relationship, leading to widespread speculation and discussion online. In light of the incident, both Byron and Cabot have been placed on administrative leave as the company evaluates the situation.
In an official statement, Astronomer emphasized their commitment to the values and culture established since their inception. “Our leaders are expected to set the standard in both conduct and accountability,” the company stated. The Board of Directors has initiated a formal investigation into the matter and plans to provide further details soon.
As of now, neither Byron nor Cabot has publicly commented on the unfolding scandal. The incident serves as a reminder of the intersection between public life and personal conduct, particularly for those in leadership positions. The rapid rise in searches on Pornhub illustrates the broader societal interest in themes of infidelity and workplace relationships, further amplified by viral moments in popular culture.
