The Coldplay Jumbotron saga takes a hilarious turn! Remember that awkward moment at the Coldplay concert in Boston where two Astronomer executives were caught in a...compromising position on the big screen? Well, Gwyneth Paltrow, Chris Martin's famously 'consciously uncoupled' ex-wife, has entered the chat.
The Academy Award-winning actress and Goop founder has become the 'temporary spokesperson' for Astronomer, the tech firm at the centre of the Jumbotron controversy. In a new, and surprisingly funny, ad posted on Astronomer's Instagram, Paltrow addresses the 'lot of questions' the company has received recently.
“I’ve been hired on a very temporary basis to speak on behalf of the 300-plus employees at Astronomer,” Paltrow says in the clip. While the ad doesn't directly address the Jumbotron incident (the 'questions' focus on Astronomer's business dealings), Paltrow's involvement adds a layer of comedic gold to the already bizarre situation.
For those who missed it, Chris Martin spotted the two Astronomer execs embracing and quipped, “Whoa, look at these two. Either they’re having an affair or they’re just very shy.” The moment went viral, putting Astronomer under intense scrutiny. Both executives involved have since resigned.
The Astronomer Instagram post featuring Paltrow is captioned simply, “Thank you for your interest in Astronomer.” It's a masterclass in crisis management... with a healthy dose of Hollywood humour. What will Gwyneth do next? Stay tuned!
What does Astronomer do?
While the ad doesn't dwell on the scandal, it subtly redirects attention to Astronomer's actual business. They are a New York-based tech firm focused on...well, you'll have to check out their website to find out the specifics! But rest assured, Gwyneth is there to (temporarily) guide you.
