Coldplay fans prove everyone is a stalked celebrity.

I never understood the famous Kiss Cam . I never understood why, in a sporting event, part of the spotlight had to be in the stands and not on the basketball court. I've always preferred watching the replay of the best American football play on the giant screen rather than having to watch a kiss between a couple, or even two strangers forced to cuddle just because they happened to be in the seat next to them. In short, a silly thing. Silly thing that has led to an adulterous couple attending a Coldplay concert becoming the center of worldwide attention.

The problem isn't that they were caught red-handed. After all, they were warned at the entrance to the show that they could be recorded by cameras. It's not that they were fired from their respective jobs, nor that her ultra-conservative family was extremely upset to learn of the habits acquired by their daughter, who has always behaved in an exemplary manner. The problem with all this has a name: the end of privacy. In the fullest sense of the word. The lack of privacy that celebrities complain about so much (which I don't always share) is also a problem for any anonymous neighbor . And now more than ever.

You have to be very careful with what you do because, one way or another, you'll eventually be discovered. Overexposure (which I work so hard for as a celebrity ) has invaded the universe. Now you can be the protagonist of a world event without intending to be; precisely because of this trend of having to record everything, show your world to the world, and share it widely.

This didn't happen before. You could go to Las Ventas for a bullfight with your lover and no one would notice. Before, you could skip school and skip ethics class and go out drinking. Before, you could tell your parents you were staying the night at your childhood friend's house and then go to an after-party . Before, you could say you had a fever when you were actually extending your vacation. These days, no one can afford these white lies. In this new era of (apparent) maximum freedom, what prevails is the strictest and most absolute control. We've been sold the idea that we're freer than ever, and it's a lie. Now, we're more controlled than ever. By social media, by tracking devices, by GPS, by cameras that capture everything. In short, you can no longer be unfaithful without everyone knowing. I won't advocate infidelity (I don't understand it), but if you decide to indulge in it, I recommend you do it in a hotel room and never appear in public with your lover. There will always be someone taking a selfie that could inadvertently betray your secret moment.
