Gwyneth Paltrow turns spokesperson for kiss-cam company

Astronomer, the company whose CEO resigned after being caught on kiss cam at a Coldplay concert, has hired actress Gwyneth Paltrow as a temporary spokesperson.

"Thank you for your interest in Astronomer," the Oscar-winning actor and Goop founder opens a video posted on Astronomer's social media.

Seated at a desk in a button-down shirt with her hands clasped in front of her, she added that she had been hired "on a very temporary basis to speak on behalf of the 300-plus employees at Astronomer".

"Astronomer has gotten a lot of questions over the last few days and they wanted me to answer the most common ones," Paltrow said, smiling.

"We've been thrilled that so many people have a newfound interest in data workflow automation.

"We will now be returning to what we do best - delivering game-changing results for our customers."

Chief executive Andy Byron and human resource executive Kristin Cabot were caught off guard when singer Chris Martin asked the cameras to scan the crowd during a concert earlier this month.

The 'cheating' video clip resulted in a stream of memes, parody videos and screenshots of the pair's shocked faces.

Byron has since resigned, as has Cabot.

Online streams of Coldplay's songs jumped 20 per cent in the days after the video went viral, according to analytics company Luminate.

Paltrow was married to Coldplay frontman Martin for 13 years.
