COLDPLAY shows are already their own universe, glowing wristbands, rainbow confetti and 80,000 fans singing "Fix You" like they're in the final scene of a Netflix drama.
But on Aug 22 at Coldplay's Wembley concert, Chris Martin did what every "ride-or-die bestie" would: he helped a fan propose mid-show.
He only did it, though, after a cheeky “security check” that had everyone in stitches. And yes, he cheekily referenced that epic astronomer Chief Executive Officer kiss-cam drama. Let's spill the deets.
Proposal loading... but first, security?
It was all smooth until Chris spotted a fan with a sign that read, “I want to propose.” Instead of going straight into romantic mode, he paused and joked:
“Are you cousins or siblings or anything weird like that? Are you AI? Are you real people?”
This playful moment was a nod to the viral astronomer CEO scandal last July; remember that awkward kiss-cam incident that ended with resignations and major drama? Chris has now made it a running gag.
Once he got the “OK,” he sang:
“My beautiful brother, here is some advice for free… I advise you to get down on one knee.”
This cued the most wholesome moment ever: the crowd went nuts, she said “yes,” and boom, an instant love story.
Coldplay meets Kiss-Cam World 2.0
If you missed the original scandal: back in July, a CEO and an employee were caught kissing on the Coldplay Jumbotron. This triggered memes, resignations and even an ad with Gwyneth Paltrow.
Since then, Chris has turned it into comedic gold, making sure you're not Beyoncé's twin or secretly an AI before proposing in real life. Talk about leveling up fan interaction!
He's basically saying, “Life throws you epic fails, so let's make them entertaining.”
And honestly? That’s peak Coldplay energy in 2025: a stadium tour that doubles as the world’s most wholesome group therapy session; with confetti.
