He says they are going to point the camera at the audience... we're standing up among a crowd of people who are sitting down. Yeah, let's continue standing and embracing.
I do too and I actually wish everyone well in this situation. Their children and their spouses, most of all ofc, but also the cheaters. Worldwide humiliation is too harsh. I hope they can still provide for their kids and everyone can get a little happier.
They literally could have just, done nothing. I've never seen footage of a Coldplay concert, and I didn't know who these people were. This wasn't television on live TV. None of this would have blown up if they just acted like normal people.
I'm not defending them - they get what they deserve. But the most hilarious part for me was it was so easily avoidable.
People tend not to think very clearly when they're panicked or frightened. You just go off instinct and first instinct in these situations is either freeze or hide
Yeah, they could have acted shy (laughing and hiding their faces, maybe making a "no" guesture with their hands), anything other than what he did, and they probably wouldn't have been viral like that. We see shy couples all the time on kiss cams, for example.
They were there with another colleague too, imagine how uncomfortable that would be if your bosses were doing this in front of you and you know one of them is married. This is more than likely a work event for them, and tickets paid by the company. Keep your hands to yourself. Youd think they were 16. Literally everyone around them is sitting.
And then let's react in the most conspicuous way possible.
The odds of anyone seeing the clip otherwise is practically zero and even if someone does see, the situation isn't conspicuous enough that a decent amount of gaslighting couldn't get them out of it.
Wasn't me or it's not what it looks like. The former is a harder sell, but cleaner and you just need some fake receipts showing you were somewhere else.
Right? I keep going back to this couple’s hubristic, brazen flaunting of affection when the band has made it clear they’re putting people ostensibly on blast.
“Surely it won’t affect us, we’re rich and enjoying free corporate tickets while our pathetic spouses are stuck at home, suckers.”
If either one of them just got the tiniest bit paranoid, and pretended to tie their shoelace or said they had to hit the rest room or stepped 5 paces back to take a fake phone call until the ‘camera on the fans’ bit was over…their lives would probably still be unchanged and they wouldn’t be pop culture infamous.
Makes sense. I would still think you would see some of the glass panel edges no? Either way the dude was bagged and it’s hysterical. True definition of FAFO
Becuase it’s irrelevant and not proof of photoshop. You can look up the stadium and the railing turns into a glass screen in many sections. You can see glass partition in the original video, he literally grabs onto it.
There's also a very short video in an angle similar to this picture, but the ones I found are in shitty videos
I think they are in a loge box with glass railing and there are stais on both sides. Then there are other seats on the sides behind them with a metal railing.
I don't think OP's picture is photoshop. It's just very compressed.
I was going to say it doesn't look quite right the background compared to what the kisscam showed. And this photo would have made the rounds significantly earlier had it been real
The weird railing is weird irl as well (they're standing at the top of the stairs where it's just glass without the railing, above the Paycom or Visa ads in this image): https://cloudfront-us-east-1.images.arcpublishing.com/bostonglobe/LOEYKOXB7ZNNGRQP5TKIEZHLOE.jpg You can even see in the original kisscam video the water bottles in the bottom right are sitting on the railing where it ends at the top of the stairs.
It's worse than you think, it's been HEAVILY constructed using AI, then blurred over, made low resolution, and JPEG compressed to hell to make it less obvious.
Zoom in on the crowds of people. Try and look past the compression. Things are not right...
I found at least 3 two-headed people and many people without faces at all.
Edit: it's worse than I thought. They even put it in a big red circle for us. What in the ever loving fuck is going on with that railing? Why does it bend around them? Are they behind or in front of it? Pretty shameful this made it to the front page. Thanks Reddit.
Edit 2: before you go down the terrible rabbit hole that is below, here is the general consensus. The image is heavily constructed using AI, but not in the way we expected. The post processing for compression and upscaling is AI based, so that's why the crowd looks so bad. The railing looks weird because it looks that way in real life. There's standing atop stairs and leaning against glass in this one weird spot.
Yeah as someone who hates AI content (and even suffered a job loss this year more than likely due to AI), this is the second time I've seen some people so convinced something is AI when it's not.
Both times they've pointed out details they evidently noticed, both times it's just people not realizing how heavily compressed videos are by the time they reach your screen. Both times people pointed out something odd (the "lack of railings" here, a woman walking through a potted area in my other experience), both times just a little digging explains the "oddity" (there was a walkway through the potted area hidden from sight. And in this case the railings at their area was glass... which you could see in the ORIGINAL video from the week prior...)
I’m hearing mixed things. I thought she was divorced. Either way, when you have the head of HR diving into this level of morality there’s likely a fair amount of people turning a blind eye.
The circled couple are the CEO and his affair partner from HR. They ended up on the kiss can during a song. There is a video of them reacting in a panic when they realize they are on screen.
Funniest shit is...if they didn't react like that PROBABLY nothing would have come out of it.
Yeah a few thousand/hundred thousand people would have seen them and then what? You tell me someone would recognize this random CEO from a random company and know that she isn't his wife?
They’ve had enough, the punishment doesn’t fit the crime at this point . I don’t care if they are cheaters , 99% of cheaters just get dumped and maybe yelled at by the victims friends a bit , people love putting others down to feel good about themselves
of course they are "those people" who stand up during the whole show even though everyone is sitting around them....."hey dipshit and skeletor can you sit the fuck down so I can see the performance?!"
it is weird but also it's probably their own company box seats, so it's not like most of the people around them don't know who they are
ofc since its the ceo and cpo the power dynamic is fucked AND people probably know they're cheating and being weird with PDA, so they're probably sitting to avoid in the first place
People who sit down at concerts or tell others to sit down are the fucking worst , stay home and play it on your Spotify if you don’t want to engage , I guarantee you the artist likes the people standing more than the lames sitting down
Goddamn people are milking this still? Let’s face forward to the victims of the cheating and possibly their kids coming out saying all this caused more damage and the same people who laughed and made memes act like they weren’t involved.
Willing to bet that fourth person next to the other girl is another person from that company who is also in an inappropriate relationship with the other girl.
Man if they had just a slight amount of foresight and acted cool no one likely would have found out, definitely wouldn't have taken off like it did Holy shit
I don’t understand why people are so upset about the CEO and his work wife given who is sitting in the White House right now. As a nation, it seems like there’s a double standard and people can’t register the hypocrisy. Maybe it’s that sometimes the magnitude is too great for the human mind to comprehend.
Why the fuck are they standing up in front of everyone who's seated!?!
I honestly thought people were possibly being overly harsh, maybe they're both stuck in unhappy marriages or something, you never know the full situation...
But to stand there and block everyone's view without a care in the world? They can both get fucked, selfish inconsiderate cunts
Life is harsh you can’t undo things, you have to live with the results of your actions. No one else was standing hugging their date in the whole section had they just sat down and watched the concert we would have never gotten the meme that will live on forever
You are taking your side piece to a concert and you are the CEO of a lower mid-level tech company and you get shitty seats up and behind the band? You should get caught.
It’s crazy that it was sold out concert, they literally stand out.
Whenever you see those kiss cams at basketball or hockey games, it’s like a random person sitting in the middle of the stands
But, for the cameraman to be showing pics of people enjoying the show, they seem like an obvious choice. Two out of thousands that are actually embracing and swaying
Most people seem to be just sitting.
I have to say that the injury this potentially caused to two spouses, children is horrendous. Trust is gone, impossible to recover completely. Not only for this relationship, but, people in general.
It’s very selfish spontaneously and surprisingly force, a spouse and children to have to change their lives
It would’ve been so much cooler to just admit in advance that you want the marriage to end. Seriously, how can anyone recover from this? How embarrassing for his work girlfriend to read that he is going to be stepping down to spend time with his wife and children. How humiliating for her to watch him apologizing to them
These two really do suck - almost nobody around them is standing in their section, and they’re in the front row, so they’re blocking everybody behind them
