Elon Musk has stirred the internet yet again, this time with a single laughing emoji. The Tesla chief reacted to a viral clip showing Astronomer CEO Andy Byron and HR head Kristin Cabot getting cozy at a Coldplay concert. What seemed like innocent PDA quickly snowballed into “Coldplaygate,” a full-blown online scandal. As the clip spread across X and TikTok, fake quotes and edited statements flooded the internet, with one even claiming an official company response. Musk’s reaction ignited a fresh wave of memes and wild speculation. Meanwhile, both Byron and Cabot have remained silent, only adding fuel to the viral fire.
