Liam Gallagher has made a dig at Coldplay after a moment from one of their concerts went viral on social media. Last week, the group, fronted by Chris Martin, found themselves at the centre of a social media storm after Astronomer CEO, Andy Byron, was caught with his hands around his HR Chief, Kristin Cabot, on a kiss cam, causing them both to instantly squirm.
On Saturday, Andy resigned from his role at the tech firm,having initially been placed on leave from the company – a decision which was made by the board. The clip hasn’t gone unnoticed by Liam though, who referenced it during Oasis’ final show as part of their Heaton Park residency over the weekend.
“Do we have any lovebirds in the house?” Liam asked the sold-out crowd of 80,000 people on Sunday. The Manchester legend went on to say: “Don’t worry, we ain’t got any of that Coldplay snidey f***ing camera sh*t. Doesn’t matter to us who you’re f***ing mingling with, or tingly with, f*****ing, none of our f***ing business.”

Liam went on to add in the clip shared by Kieran Smith: “This one’s for the love birds, anyway,” before belting out Slide Away. In the Coldplay clip, the kiss-cam pointed to Byron and Cabot, leaving them both extremely embarrassed.
Chris was left amused as he commented: “Oh, look at these two – either they’re having an affair or they’re just very shy.” In a statement shared over the weekend, Astronomer said: “As stated previously, Astronomer is committed to the values and culture that have guided us since our founding. Our leaders are expected to set the standard in both conduct and accountability, and recently, that standard was not met.
“Andy Byron has tendered his resignation, and the Board of Directors has accepted. While awareness of our company may have changed overnight, our product and our work for our customers have not. We’re continuing to do what we do best: helping our customers with their toughest data and AI problems.”
Coldplay, however, were not the only people to be mentioned during the final show at Heaton Park. Older sibling Noel, used his solo section to take aim at the Royal Family. During the opening night of their Manchester shows,he dedicated the track Half The World Away to the late Caroline Aherne, famed for playing Denise in The Royle Family, which the song is also the soundtrack to.
But on Sunday, when he started playing the track, he said: “This one, for the Royal Family,” which the audience appeared to lap up as they let out loud cheers. “Not that f***ing Royal Family! The real Royle Family,” he added, in a clip which is being shared on TikTok, as the crowd let out a louder cheer, before he started performing the moving track.
Following the five sold-out shows in Manchester and the two opening gigs in Cardiff, Oasis are now preparing to headline Wembley Stadium. They’ll play a staggering seven nights at the home of England football after the initial five shows sold-out almost instantly.
