A tech company CEO has resigned after controversy over a video captured on the big screen at a Coldplay concert.

Andy Byron, the chief executive of New York-based tech company Astronomer, has resigned from his role after he was spotted embracing an employee at a Coldplay concert, according to a LinkedIn post from the company on Saturday.

Astronomer CEO Andy Bryon was placed on leave, a company spokesperson told PEOPLE. Earlier this week, a couple was caught on camera together during a Coldplay concert, prompting singer Chris Martin to joke about them having an "affair.

Clips from shows like ‘Succession,’ ‘The Sopranos,’ ‘The Simpsons’ and ‘Knight of Cups’ are being deployed to poke fun at the viral moment from the band's Boston show.

It started out as a routine bit of fun at a Coldplay concert: Lead singer Chris Martin asked the cameras to scan the crowd for his “Jumbotron Song,” when he sings a few lines about the people the camera lands on.
