Coldplay star's ex Gwyneth Paltrow becomes Astronomer's "spokesperson": Social media explodes
Astronomer, the AI/data ops startup that went viral for all the wrong reasons, has just dropped a bold PR move: Gwyneth Paltrow , ex-wife of Coldplay frontman Chris Martin , is playing the role of their temporary spokesperson. It's thought‑provoking, cheeky—and yes, it's totally capitalizing on the buzz. What happened (in case you missed it) It all started at a Coldplay concert on July 15. A Kiss Cam captured Astronomer CEO Andy Byron and HR head Kristin Cabot in a cozy moment. They quickly shied away, looking mortified. Chris Martin quipped on stage, 'Either they're having an affair or just really shy.' The internet explosion that followed led to resignations—and a full-on PR crisis. About a week later, Astronomer posted a video featuring Gwyneth Paltrow. She introduces herself calmly, saying: 'I've been hired on a very temporary basis to speak on behalf of the 300-plus employees at Astronomer.' She deadpans, 'Yes... Astronomer is the best place to run Apache Airflow,' turning the viral moment into a data‑tech pitch. It's like watching the calmest damage control ever. Netizens are calling it a PR masterstroke—'marketing jiu‑jitsu' that turned a viral scandal into brand awareness. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Up to 70% off | Libas Purple Days Sale Libas Undo One user said this was '10/10 PR recovery.' Social media lit up Social media lit up after news broke that Gwyneth Paltrow—yes, Chris Martin's ex—was hired as a temporary spokesperson by Astronomer, the data platform making headlines for all the wrong reasons. 'Astronomer picking Chris Martin's ex-wife as their spokesperson is diabolical marketing and a pretty entertaining crisis recovery move,' tweeted @mickeynegus, summing up the internet's collective jaw-drop. Meanwhile, @LloydMathias chimed in with a perfectly Goop-flavored take: 'Brilliant come back from @astronomerio using Gwyneth Paltrow as temp spokie. She cleverly cuts off Q&As: 'OMG what the actual f—' & 'How is your social media team holding—" to expertly shift focus back to brand. Masterful crisis recovery! Well played.' Who is Astronomer's CEO now? Astronomer's interim CEO, Pete DeJoy, has stepped in after Byron's resignation. He described the media attention as 'unusual and surreal,' adding that the scandal unexpectedly made Astronomer a household name in data automation. Paltrow's casting is ironic gold: she was married to Coldplay's Chris Martin. Now she's tongue-in-cheek fronting the company that got dragged into the drama. It's absurd—and hilarious. Astronomer turned a cringe kiss cam moment into a viral comeback—by starring Gwyneth Paltrow in the kind of eyebrow‑raising cameo we'd never see in traditional crisis PR.

Kapil Sharma's Weight Loss Journey Wasn't Easy: ‘He Was Sleep-Deprived,' Says Trainer
In a recent interview, Kapil Sharma's fitness trainer - Yogesh Bhateja opened up about how he trained the actor and comedian. He mentioned that the transformation was not easy. Kapil Sharma has surprised many with his recent weight loss, and now his fitness trainer, Yogesh Bhateja, is opening up about how it all happened. The transformation wasn't easy; the actor and comedian had trouble sleeping and followed an irregular diet, making the journey quite challenging. In a YouTube interview on Mad Over Growth with Nitin Bajaj, Yogesh, who has also trained celebrities like Farah Khan, Kangana Ranaut, and Sonu Sood, talked about how the journey began. He shared that Sonu Sood introduced him to Kapil Sharma during the promotions of Happy New Year. Soon after, Kapil's manager contacted Yogesh, saying that the comedian was ready to start his fitness journey. Yogesh started training Kapil at his home, using basic tools like a yoga mat, resistance bands, and Kapil's treadmill. More gym equipment was added later. Watch the video here. Recalling the first day of training, Yogesh said, 'The story of Day 1 is actually pretty funny. I asked him to do stretches, and because he hadn't moved his body in a long time, even simple movements like arm rotations, body twists, and toe touches caused him discomfort. His expressions were so exaggerated and comic… From the very next day, he was back on schedule, and we began with basic movements. That's when I realised how stiff his body had become; there was no food discipline, and a lot of inflammation in his body." He also shared that Kapil's busy work life made things worse. 'Since Kapil was the main guy, the responsibility on him was even greater. He was sleep-deprived, his diet had no set pattern, and he would eat at odd times. There was no discipline. It took me a long time, along with his manager and team, to bring some alignment into his lifestyle. But by God's grace, when his film came out, everyone saw the difference on screen," Yogesh added. As for his meals, Yogesh made changes by adding more fish, calling it 'a great source of protein that helps manage calories." He also included a good amount of vegetables in Kapil's diet. Fans first noticed Kapil's slimmer look in April this year, when he was seen at the airport looking much fitter. While his weight has gone up and down in the past, he's now in great shape and regularly posts stylish photos on social media. On the work front, Kapil is currently hosting Season 3 of The Great Indian Kapil Sharma Show on Netflix. He is also working on the sequel to his 2015 film Kis Kisko Pyaar Karoon, and shared its first look during Eid this year. view comments First Published: July 26, 2025, 10:57 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
