Coldplayed 

The act of being seen with the wrong person at the wrong time in a very public place - typically exposing an affair.

Comes from the moment at a Coldplay concert in July, 2025 where Astronomer CEO Andy Byron and CPO Kristin Cabot were caught cuddling on the Jumbotron "kiss cam" but immediately ducked and hid their faces, prompting Coldplay frontman Chris Martin to say, "either they're having an affair or are really shy."

They WERE having an affair, and both of their lives blew up.
