The Coldplay kiss cam saga <\/a>lives on.<\/p>\n

The band\u2019s frontman, Chris Martin, hesitated when a fan held up a sign stating that he wanted to propose to his partner during the former\u2019s concert in London\u2019s Wembley Stadium Friday.<\/p>\n

\u201cOK, now listen, my brother, I need you to nod as I do some basic security checks, OK?\u201d the \u201cHymn for the Weekend\u201d singer, 48, joked, per a video of the moment posted on TikTok<\/a>.<\/p>\n

As the audience laughed, he continued, \u201cIs this person your partner? Yes? No one else\u2019s partner? OK.\u201d<\/p>\n

Once he received an affirmative nod, Martin then sought further clarification, asking, \u201cAre you cousins or siblings or anything weird like that? \u2026 Are you AI? Are you real people? OK, then I think we can continue.\u201d<\/p>\n

Martin\u2019s cheeky line of questioning comes months after a couple went viral for getting caught seemingly cheating on their spouses<\/a> at a Coldplay concert in the Boston-area.<\/p>\n

The since-resigned <\/a>Astronomer CEO Andy Byron and his former head of HR<\/a> Kristin Cabot were spotted on the kiss cam in July canoodling before they quickly hid from the cameras in fear and shame.<\/p>\n

\u201cEither they\u2019re having an affair or they\u2019re just very shy,\u201d\u00a0Martin joked over the mic at the time.<\/p>\n

The incident spawned a ton of memes and media attention, leading to Astronomer going so far as to hire the \u201cYellow\u201d singer\u2019s ex-wife, Gwyneth Paltrow, as their \u201ctemporary spokesperson\u201d in an ad<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Following Martin\u2019s reaction to the proposal Friday, one person on social media remarked, \u201cPoor Chris is traumatized lol,\u201d while another agreed, \u201cPoor Chris \ud83d\ude02 he\u2019s gotta clear his audience now.\u201d<\/p>\n

However, the scandal is not stopping the British rocker<\/a> from continuing to feature fans via a Jumbotron.<\/p>\n

Last week, he said at a show in Hull, England, \u201cLife throws you lemons and you\u2019ve got to make lemonade. So, we are going to keep doing it because we are going to meet some of you.\u201d<\/p>\n
