Sucks that the company is named Astronomer. It's not even space based.
Thank you for clearing this up! I, like I assume many were, was assuming this dude was a scientist.
Do I need to know who that is? I tried looking up the name but all I can find is gossipy yelling about the two of them and Coldplay so apparently this seems to be some big deal but in general I don't think it should be the public's concern if someone has an affair (exceptions apply).
Their reactions to being on the big screen, which instigated Chris Martin's live commentary, is what's causing this video to go viral.
The point being if they hadn't had this reaction to getting caught, Chris Martin wouldn't have commented, and the video probably never would've taken off or even been posted outside of someone's private story.
If someone is having an affair, and having an affair in a public place, and the affair is between the CEO and the lead person at the company who knows better than to instigate this type of relationship (the head of HR), then this is a hilarious way to get caught.
So a simple lolcow exacerbated by belonging to a group of people that (deservedly) has image problems. Alright then.
I dunno', the chain of exacerbations is pretty hilarious. Even better it's happening to a class of people that deserve zero respect.
It is more so that the singer's response to their reaction was to say she was shy or having an affair and it turned out to be the latter. That would be funny no matter who they were .
Him being a ceo was the cherry on top.
What's weird is that when these videos first started popping up is that every one of them talked about "Astronomer CEO". I couldn't understand how they knew he was a CEO or why he was an astronomer. It turns out that Astronomer is a "DataOps platform built on Apache Airflow". That's even an area I know a fair amount about, and I'd never even heard of them. It's strange that it wasn't just "cheating couple caught on kiss cam", but instead immediately it was "Astronomer CEO".
And they would have likely gotten away with it, if it wasn't for that pesky kisscam.
Might have also gotten away with it if they didn't completely freak out in front of the kiss cam, so everyone started thinking they were cheating and looked into who they were.
There is only 1 CEO I have seen hit the ground faster than that, I don't think I am beeing too harsh.
We need more ~~CEOs~~ data.
Why do we care about this?
Is anyone involved in this, someone i should know?
The news of it happening doesn't land like the video of it happening does.

It's fucking brutal.
"Coldplay hasn’t made a single in years but today they made two." LOL
Technically they made four.
Oh man, so much worse. What an idiot, if they had just smiled and waved it never would’ve gone viral.
Edit: and also if they had never decided to have an affair they wouldn’t be in the situation in the first place.
if they had never decided to have an affair
Yeah, but that's too difficult. Just ask my wife.
Anyone got a mirror that doesn't require a fucking Instagram account?
Edit: YouTube short but at least it doesn't try to beg for a login: https://m.youtube.com/shorts/xL8gdhw4q5I
Because it's funny as shit.
Oh fuck, not not the camera.... fuck fuck fuck
I wish they would just leave these poor people alone.. whats that? They are rich? Oh then by all means burn them at the stake.
I wonder if they would have gotten away with it if they'd just played it cool.
Absolutely
100%! Imagine you look up on the big screen and you see two fifty year olds swaying to some generic pop music. Nobody would've cared enough to look them up.
Hmm.
Does she have some decent guns or is it just the muscle being pushed up by the arm underneath?
Look at the shoulders. She's jacked.
Well, the CEO will need a big raise soon.
Shuffled off to another company to make it fail, too.
I really hate their friends in the video. They’re all aware their friends are piece of shit cheaters, and they find it funny. “Haha we’re taking part in destroying a woman’s life by helping her husband cheat, hilarious!”
I mean theyre both married. Not sure why you're focusing on just the one piece of shit.
In balance of power. Since he is the CEO he holds a position of authority over her. She could very well be in a position where she fearful of retaliation if she doesn't except his advances. I'm not saying that's the case here, but there is a chance it could be.
If my boss came on to me, I'm still not betraying my wife. I'll definitely collect evidence for a law suit though.
