Morgan Wallen Pokes Fun at Coldplay Concert Scandal During Arizona Show

Morgan Wallen isn’t afraid to poke fun at pop culture buzz — and he did just that during his recent concert in Glendale, Arizona.

The country star, 32, playfully addressed the now-viral Coldplay concert scandal involving Astronomer CEO Andy Byron and HR executive Kristin Cabot, assuring fans they were “safe” from any surprise exposure.

Morgan Wallen Reacts to Coldplay Concert Cheating Scandal On Stage

“Anybody in here with their side chick or whatever, I think you’re safe here,” Wallen told the crowd in a video shared to TikTok. The clip was captioned, “@morganwallen is truly just one of the boys 😆🤟🏻.”

The “I Ain’t Comin’ Back” singer followed up with a cheeky quip: “I don’t condone cheating … anymore,” which was met with roaring applause and cheers from the audience.

Fans quickly flooded the comments section with support. “We like an honest king,” one user wrote. Another added, “I love the honesty. He isn’t ashamed of his past mistakes. Love him.”

Wallen’s remarks came just days after Coldplay front man Chris Martin accidentally exposed Byron and Cabot’s alleged affair during a kiss cam moment that quickly went viral.

Coldplay’s Kiss Cam Sparks Scandal

The drama unfolded during Coldplay’s July 17 concert in Boston. During a lighthearted kiss cam segment, the camera landed on a suite where Byron had his arms wrapped around Cabot. As their images appeared on the big screen, the pair appeared stunned and quickly tried to hide from view.

“Whoa, look at these two,” Martin said from the stage. “Either they’re having an affair or they’re just very shy.”

Once the clip went viral, internet sleuths quickly discovered that both Byron and Cabot are married to other people. Byron’s wife, Megan Kerrigan Byron, reportedly dropped his last name from her Facebook profile before deleting her account entirely, Per Page Six. Meanwhile, Cabot is married to Privateer Rum CEO Andrew Cabot.

According to CNBC, Byron has resigned from his role at Astronomer since the footage surfaced. The scandal has continued to dominate headlines, prompting conversations around workplace ethics and public exposure in the age of viral videos.

Martin later addressed the incident during a subsequent Coldplay concert in Madison, Wisconsin. “Please, if you haven’t done your makeup, do your makeup now,” he joked before starting another round of kiss cam moments.

Wallen’s humorous take on the situation landed well with fans and served as a reminder that a little self-awareness — and perfect timing — goes a long way in the internet era.
