The statement comes on the heels of the Coldplay kiss cam scandal. The viral saga began when a couple was highlighted in a kiss cam segment during a Coldplay show at Gillette Stadium in Foxboro, Mass., on July 16. After realizing they were on camera, the woman could be seen covering her face while the man ducked out of sight.

Speaking from the stage during the band's final show of their six night stand at Manchester's Heaton Park (July 20), Gallagher made reference to the incident at a Coldplay show in San Francisco last week, which saw a pair of attendees embracing but sheepishly hiding from view when they appeared on stage's jumbotron.

Last week, Byron was caught on a "kiss cam" during a Coldplay concert in Boston with the human resources head of New York-based AI firm Astronomer, Kristin Cabot. The two were caught on camera appearing as a happy couple, but they immediately broke apart after vocalist Chris Martin's witty comments.
