Nando’s has done it again with another hilarious social media post, this time mocking Astronomer CEO Andy Byron who was recently caught cosying up to his alleged mistress during a Coldplay concert.
NANDO’S MOCKS CEO ANDY BYRON
While Nando’s originated from South Africa, its Australian counterpart took a page out of its book with a cheeky advert.
In an Instagram post, the flame-grilled chicken restaurant ran a promotion that poked fun at Astronomer CEO, Andy Byron.
The ad read, “Little something on the side? Enter Coldplay for a free regular side with any main.”
In a clip that broke the internet last week, Byron was caught canoodling with an employee, Kristin Cabot, during a Coldplay concert. Byron is a married man whose wife’s name is Megan Kerrigan Byron.
Lead singer Chris Martin said of the awkward moment: “Either they’re having an affair or they’re very shy.”
ASTRONOMER HAS THE LAST LAUGH?
Meanwhile, Astronomer – the DataOps company Andy Byron worked for – has responded to the social media storm with a cheeky video of their own.
In the clip, an unexpected guest – Gwyneth Paltrow, the ex-wife of Coldplay lead singer Chris Martin – made an appearance. In it, she tackled several “burning questions” about the company and the scandal.
Claiming that she had been “hired on a temporary basis” in a PR post, Paltrow said: “Astronomer has gotten a lot of questions over the last few days – and they wanted me to answer the most common ones.”
The Hollywood actress went on to indirectly answer a few spoof questions about what had happened.
“We’ll now be returning to what we do best: delivering game-changing results for our customers,” she added.
The video comes after Andy Byron stepped down from his post as Astronomer CEO amid the backlash.
