Coldplay kiss cam recorder reveals real reason she filmed viral moment - 'I don't feel guilty'
Appearing on This Morning via video link, Grace Springer opened up about filming the moment - admitting that she was only recording as she hoped that she would appear on the Coldplay jumbotron.
"I was hoping to see myself on the big screen and I love to capture moments so that's why my phone was out in the first place," she said. "I was being hopeful."
"So in the moment when I filmed it, I didn't think much of it but everyone was chattering. There was over 50,000 people at the concert. It wasn't until after the concert when I was debriefing the moment with my friends. We reviewed the footage to see if it really looked that bad and it really does."
When asked by Dermot whether she felt guilty about posting the video, she said: "I definitely feel for Andy's wife Megan and his family and everyone else who has been hurt in the process.
"But like I said, there was over 50,000 people and I'm not the only one who caught it on camera so if it wasn't me who uploaded it, I'm sure someone else would have."

Oleksandr Usyk is one of boxing's greats – but he'll never be able to enjoy success due to horrors of Ukraine war
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) OLEKSANDR USYK'S fame and fortune is a 'curse' while his friends and countrymen are lying dead in trenches and bomb sites. Derek Chisora lost a 12-round decision against the two-weight undisputed genius in 2020 but the pair bashed up an unlikely bromance.

Del Boy was ringside to watch Usyk's latest four-belt crowning over Daniel Dubois on Saturday night at Wembley, cementing his place as a generational talent and a multi-millionaire. But he told our Split Decision YouTube show that all the belts and cash in the world are wasted on the devout 38-year-old, while Vladimir Putin lays siege to his home and slaughters his nation. Chisora explained: 'He has made so much money but he can't enjoy it because his country is at war.

He is cursed. 'He can't go on holiday in St Tropez and sunbathe and drink tequila because his friends are in the trenches. 'He can't enjoy his money. He can't because he is all Ukraine has right now." Since the 2022 invasion, Usyk has scythed through British boxing's best big men. 5 Usyk is a proud Ukrainian Credit: Getty CASINO SPECIAL - BEST CASINO BONUSES FROM £10 DEPOSITS After Chisora was outpointed, the gap-toothed southpaw did almost faultless doubles over Anthony Joshua, Tyson Fury and now 27-year-old Dubois. And the Englishman reckons the sickening onslaught his people are facing is inspiring him in a way that transcends sport. Oleksandr Usyk has press conference in stitches as he NAMES the left hook that floored Daniel Dubois at Wembley He said: 'The population is going down because so many people, young men, are dying. 'It's so difficult for him but it's also why he is so dedicated, he is doing it for his whole nation. 'If it's your destiny then it's your destiny. If God says it's your path then nothing will take you away from it.' Arguments about cross-generation fantasy fights will rage on in pubs and online forums. But Chisora tries to keep it short and sweet. He added: 'Usyk is 100 per cent a top-10 heavyweight and he is in my top-five. 'European amateur champion, Olympic gold medalist, undisputed cruiserweight world champion and two-time undisputed heavyweight champion. 'What more else can he do? He has whooped us all. He has taken the p***!'

FKA twigs drops lawsuit against ex-Shia LaBeouf that alleged sexual and physical abuse
Singer FKA twigs has dropped a lawsuit she filed against her ex Shia LaBeouf that accused the actor of physical, mental and sexual abuse. The British singer, born Tahliah Debrett Barnett, had filed the case back in December 2020 in Los Angeles Super Court. The duo had a relationship that lasted just under a year. On July 18, FKA twigs filed a request for dismissal, according to the court docket. The request sought the complaint be dismissed with prejudice. FKA twigs' attorney, Bryan Freedman, and LeBeouf's attorney, Shawn Holley, said in a joint statement the case was settled out of court. 'Committed to forging a constructive path forward, we have agreed to settle our case out of court," the statement said. "While the details of the settlement will remain private, we wish each other personal happiness, professional success and peace in the future.' The 2020 suit accused LaBeouf of 'relentless abuse,' including choking her, throwing her against a car on Valentine's Day in 2019, and knowingly giving her a sexually transmitted disease. At the time of the suit, LaBeouf told the New York Times, 'I have no excuses for my alcoholism or aggression, only rationalizations.' 'I have been abusive to myself and everyone around me for years. I have a history of hurting the people closest to me. I'm ashamed of that history and am sorry to those I hurt,' he added. The 'Transformers' star had made headlines in the past for his volatile behavior. In 2014 he was charged with disorderly conduct, criminal trespass and harassment after disrupting a Broadway play, according to The Associated Press. He eventually pleaded guilty to disorderly conduct. In 2017, he went on a racist tirade against Georgia police officers arresting him for public drunkenness, the AP reported. He subsequently pleaded guilty to obstruction and was placed on a year's probation. The public drunkenness allegation was dropped.

The British seaside city that is officially one of the best places in the world for nightlife
There are so many factors that go into making a good city great. For somewhere to truly be one of the best places in the world, it needs fantastic food, diverse and exciting culture, efficient public transport and a welcoming vibe. It should also be able to offer you a really, really good night out. So, with that in mind, Time Out has quizzed thousands of city natives across the world on how they rate the nightlife in their locale. While we know that places like London, Manchester and Leeds do all offer brilliant nights out (just take a look at our list of the country's greatest club nights), there was just one UK city that ranked in the global top 20 best nightlife cities in the world. Brighton was the only British city to make the cut. With 81 percent of locals rating the city's nightlife either 'good' or 'amazing', it landed seventh on our list, just beneath some of the planet's better known clubbing meccas like Las Vegas, Madrid and Berlin. Liv Kelly, Time Out's travel writer and Brighton local, explains that the city's thriving after-dark scene owes a lot to its queer population (which has earned it the title of the UK's Gay Capital). Our survey found that Brighton is one of the world's most diverse and inclusive cities, with 64 percent of its residents describing it 'welcoming and friendly' – the perfect recipe for a good time. Liv said said: 'At Brighton's nighttime core is the deep-rooted role that LGBTQ+ spaces – which began cropping up way back in the '20s and '30s – have played.' She shouts out 'veteran queer institutions' Legends and Revenge as well as more recent additions like lesbian club night Crushed and disco rave collective TidalGroove. If it's a more lowkey night out that you're after, Brighton can do that too. When it comes to 'more intimate, sound-led venues and bars', Liv recommends The Well, Helm or Alphabet. You can see all our favourite Brighton bars here. And you're in good hands for the morning after. The seaside city was one the the top ranking UK spots when Time Out asked people what they thought of the food scene in their hometown. Starfish & Coffee, Egg & Spoon and Café Coho all serve up stellar brunches that'll bring you back to life.
