Martin said as the pair in question popped up on the screen, embracing one another. But as soon as they were shown, the grey-haired man dove out of view quickly, while the blonde woman shielded her face and turned away. 'Alright, c'mon. You're OK,' the singer continued as they tried to hide themselves. A couple was allegedly caught cheating at a Coldplay concert in Boston. Photo by TikTok 'Oh what?' Martin said, when he realized they were desperately trying not to be shown. 'Either they're having an affair or they're just very shy. I'm not quite sure.' After racking up more than 14.5 million views on TikTok, social media users became convinced the two were cheating on their significant others and several Internet sleuths claimed to have identified the companions.

' Have you seen this couple that got caught cheating at a Coldplay concert? They didn't just get exposed on the jumbotron … The internet found them. Be safe out there, my adulterin' friends,' one X user wrote. Several others said the twosome made a mistake by trying to hide. 'S urprisingly if they didn't react like that, no one would know,' one person wrote on TikTok, with another adding, 'Crazy because if they hadn't reacted this way it wouldn't have been a big deal and no one would've noticed.' It didn't take long for online investigators to identify the alleged pair. X user anuibi shared photos from the duo's purported LinkedIn pages with claims that they worked for the same company.

Both 'Astronomer' and 'Chief People Officer' became trending topics on X by late Thursday morning. 'The internet would like to particularly thank Chris Martin from @coldplay for exposing cheaters at his concert,' @anuibi swiped in a follow-up post. 'I am confident both spouses who were cheated on will have their lawyers get a pretty good payout. Thank you, Chris.' One follower of the drama shared their three takeaways, writing, ' So much to unpack here. First, if they'd have just remained calm, no one would've suspected anything. Second, leave his wife alone on Facebook…No need to rub it in her face. Third, let this be a lesson…NEVER bring a side piece to a Coldplay show.' This was the second time the Coldplay frontman has gone viral in little over a week. Martin caused a stir online when he seemingly criticized Toronto's new Rogers Stadium during the first two shows at the outdoor venue. This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. Addressing the crowd on the opening night he thanked fans for battling all 'the traffic and the travel and the trains and the waiting' to get to 'this weird stadium in the middle of nowhere.'

At the band's second show, Martin knocked the stadium once again for its distance from downtown Toronto when he addressed fans mid-concert. 'Thank you for being here … and especially thank you for travelling on the strange quest that you had to travel on to get to this very bizarre stadium, a million miles from earth,' he jabbed. 'We are solely testing the premise if you build it they will come.' By the time the band played their third show, Martin clearly had realized that his comments had become the subject of debate. 'I have never criticized this stadium that was beautifully, kindly built for us to play in,' Martin said Friday night in a video that was shared to social media by MuchMusic. 'I'm so grateful to have somewhere where we can hang out with all of you … All I'm trying to say is, thank you for the effort that you all took to come here. That is not a criticism of the people that built it OK? It's just trying to say thank you to all of you for the hassle that you had to go through.' mdaniell@ Read More Love concerts, but can't make it to the venue?

American singer Connie Francis, whose hits include Pretty Little Baby, dead at 87
Connie Francis, the wholesome pop star of the 1950s and '60s whose hits include Pretty Little Baby, has died at 87. Her death was announced Thursday by her friend and publicist Ron Roberts, who did not immediately provide additional details. Francis was a top performer of the pre-Beatles era, rarely off the charts from 1957 to 1964. Able to appeal to both young people and adults, she had more than a dozen top-20 hits, starting with Who's Sorry Now? and including the No. 1 songs Don't Break the Heart That Loves You and The Heart Has a Mind of Its Own. Like other teen favourites of her time, she also starred in several films, including Where the Boys Are and Follow the Boys. Francis recorded the song Pretty Little Baby more than 60 years ago. While not deemed a hit at the time, it took off in May 2025 as a trending sound featured in millions of TikTok posts, with various influencers and celebrities posting videos of them lip-synching the lyrics. This also contributed to the song landing in the top songs on Spotify's Viral 50 global and U.S. lists. Major star of pre-Beatles era Concetta Rosemarie Franconero was born on Dec. 12, 1937, in Newark, N.J. She was just three when her father presented her with a child-size accordion. The next year, she began singing and playing the instrument at various public events. At age nine, she began appearing on television programs, including Arthur Godfrey's Talent Scouts and The Perry Como Show. It was Godfrey who suggested she shorten her last name. The dark-haired singer was just 17 when she signed a contract with MGM Records following appearances on several TV variety shows. Her earliest recordings attracted little attention, but then she released her version of Who's Sorry Now?, an old ballad by Ted Snyder, Bert Kalmar and Harry Ruby. It had little success initially until Dick Clark played it on his American Bandstand show in 1958. Francis followed with such teen hits as Stupid Cupid, Everybody's Somebody's Fool and Lipstick on Your Collar. Her records became hits worldwide as she re-recorded versions of her original songs in Italian and Spanish, among other languages. Clark featured her repeatedly on American Bandstand, and she said in later years that without his support, she would have abandoned her music career. Her concerts around the country quickly sold out. 'My personal life is a regret' Meanwhile, a romance bloomed with fellow teen idol Bobby Darin, who had volunteered to write songs for her. But when her father heard rumours that the pair were planning a wedding, he stormed into a rehearsal and pulled a gun on Darin, ending their relationship, and seeming to set on Francis on a traumatic path. She chronicled some of it in her autobiography Who's Sorry Now? "My personal life is a regret from A to Z," she told The Associated Press in 1984, the year the book came out. "I realized I had allowed my father to exert too much influence over me." Her father, George Franconero, was a roofing contractor from New Jersey. When she was four, he began booking singing dates for her, going on to become her manager. Although her acting career had faded by the mid-'60s, Francis was still popular on the concert circuit when she appeared at the Westbury Music Center in Westbury, N.Y., in 1974. She had returned to her hotel room and was asleep when a man broke in and raped her at knifepoint. He was never captured. Francis sued the hotel, alleging its security was faulty, and a jury awarded her $2.5 million US in 1976. The two sides then settled out of court for $1,475,000 as an appeal was pending. She said the attack destroyed her marriage and put her through years of emotional turmoil. She suffered another tragedy in 1981 when her brother George was shot to death as he was leaving his New Jersey home. Later in the decade, her father had her committed to a psychiatric hospital, where she was diagnosed as manic-depressive. At one point, she attempted suicide by swallowing dozens of sleeping tablets. After three days in a coma, she recovered. She was married four times and would say that only her third husband, Joseph Garzilli, was worth the trouble. The other marriages each lasted less than a year.

Stampede bartender vows 'never' to do it again, citing abusive crowds and marathon shifts
The Calgary Stampede is a rodeo at heart, but has developed a culture for long nights and in some cases, heavy consumption. One Stampede bartender is feeling the effects, and think they may be present city wide The Badlands music festival tent is causing some noise issues for the people that live nearby in Calgary on Wednesday, July 9, 2025. Darren Makowichuk/Postmedia An Alberta bartender is vowing to never again work during the Stampede, citing increasingly poor behaviour by revellers.

Create Account And a scientific study is giving credence to those concerns, citing an increase in health issues during the 10-day party. Kelly Hanasyk believes the drinking culture around Stampede contributes to deteriorating mental health. She was on the front lines, having driven from her home in Edmonton to bartend in one of the numerous party tent pop-ups around the city for the full 10-day run. She documented the experience on TikTok, with one video garnering more than 1.9-million views. She said she saw a clear degradation in the public over the course of her time behind a bar. By the second weekend, guests were more aggressive and demanding, and at times outright hostile. 'Any environment where people are drinking copious amounts for 10 days straight is not healthy for anyone,' Hanasyk said. Your noon-hour look at what's happening in Toronto and beyond. By signing up you consent to receive the above newsletter from Postmedia Network Inc. Please try again This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. A three-year long study published in the Canadian Journal for Emergency Medicine found that during the course of the Stampede, emergency departments saw a 24 per cent increase in the diagnosis of substance misuse. The study found a general increase in emergency visits, with a sharper spike in visits at nighttime and by men. Sarah Rosenfeld is the associate director of counselling initiatives at the Calgary Counselling Centre. She said the key to navigating such an event is to build out a support group of peers, who can check in with each other without the pressure to participate. 'We kind of have a collective responsibility, in my opinion, to be able to look after one another, but we also need to be able to have the skills and knowledge to be able to navigate some of those more difficult situations because it can be hard to have those conversations, right? This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. 'It can be hard to support people in the way that you think they might need to be helped,' Rosenfeld said. Hanasyk said that those working during Stampede were particularly vulnerable to wear and tear, due to incredibly long working hours. She said multiple employees worked shifts longer than 20 hours straight, pushed by an ambiguity around the gratuity that they were owed at end of the night. With much of the income being dispersed in cash, she said it was impossible to know if you were being equally compensated. 'You're trying to manage competing priorities, right? So I think for some folks, that's a source of income as well that they wouldn't otherwise have access to,' Rosenfeld said. She added that sleep issues among those with unusual work hours is well documented. This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. 'Lack of quality sleep does affect decision-making, does affect our emotions, does affect our judgment,' she said. Hanasyk has been in the hospitality industry for more than a decade, and said she came into the event expecting many of the stress factors in play. But not all of her co-workers had those same expectations, as many had never worked in a service role before the Stampede. 'The other bartender that I was with was so overwhelmed she had to leave the floor twice to go and cry in the back alley,' Hanasyk said. 'I was put on a bar with a school teacher. She has no industry experience and it was very obviously not going to go well.' 'They're never going to do it again. I'm never going to do it again,' she said. 'I want to take a step back from the industry as a whole after this experience.' ktulloch@ Celebrity Crime Entertainment Toronto Maple Leafs Editorial Cartoons
