Coldplay \u201ckiss cam\u201d executive Kristin Cabot<\/a> shifted blame to her former boss in a new interview \u2014 hinting he lied to her about his marriage status and claiming social media \u201cprofited\u201d from her pain.<\/p>\n

Cabot<\/a>, 53, believed that philandering Astronomer CEO Andy Byron, 51, was in the process of separating from his wife when they were seen canoodling at the concert during the viral cheating scandal, she said on Oprah Winfrey\u2019s podcast Tuesday.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe wasn\u2019t the person he represented himself to be, to me \u2014 and lying is a non-negotiable for me,\u201d Cabot told Winfrey. \u201cThere was a big miss on honesty and integrity.\u201d<\/p>\n

Cabot<\/a>, the firm\u2019s former head of HR, was married and in the process of getting a divorce when the couple was caught scrambling to duck out of view in July.<\/p>\n

She told Oprah she believed Byron was in a similar marital situation \u2014 hinting he had lied to her about plans to leave his wife.<\/p>\n

She said she \u201cended communication\u201d with him last fall.<\/p>\n

When Winfrey pressed Cabot to be more specific about his alleged \u201clying,\u201d Cabot demurred.<\/p>\n

\u201cI wanna be really careful, because the world spoke for me and on my behalf, and I don\u2019t wanna do that to somebody else and their family,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s the first time Cabot has accused the former tech tycoon of lying, having never mentioned it during an interview with the New York Times<\/a> in December.<\/p>\n

In the interview with Winfrey, she also milked the moment for sympathy \u2014 claiming social media companies such as TikTok \u201cfeed off the pain\u201d of viral moments like hers, which raked in more than a billion views.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe more pain someone like me is in, the more money they are going to make. And it fuels it and feeds it. I think there is an accountability there that needs to be looked at.\u201d<\/p>\n

Byron has yet to comment on the \u201ckiss cam\u201d moment. After the concert, he was seen publicly with his wife wearing a wedding ring.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Coldplay \u201ckiss cam\u201d executive Kristin Cabot shifted blame to her former boss in a new interview \u2014 hinting…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":531281,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[57],"tags":[236,15786,19365,88,19142,194],"class_list":["post-531280","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-celebrities","tag-celebrities","tag-coldplay","tag-coldplay-concert-cheating-scandal","tag-entertainment","tag-oprah-winfrey","tag-us-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/531280","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=531280"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/531280\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/531281"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=531280"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=531280"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=531280"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
