While performing at Bon Secours Wellness Arena in Greenville, South Carolina, on Thursday, July 17, as part of his Country Song Came On tour, the American Idol judge seemingly poked fun at the headlines stemming from a recent Coldplay show.

“We’re gonna shine our cameras on anybody,” Bryan, 49, said in fan footage. “Who’s here with their secretary tonight? Hey, it’s gotta be someone way up there.”

As the venue panned its cameras to various audience members, Bryan continued to have some fun with the internet’s latest obsession.

“Oh, yeah! There they are,” he said before he started playing portions of his song “Strip It Down.”

“Don’t get caught tonight!” he joked. “Do not get caught tonight.”

Us Weekly has reached out to Bryan’s rep for additional comment.

Earlier this week, Chris Martin and his band, Coldplay, were performing at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts, when the venue’s kiss cam seemingly caught two attendees having an affair. 

“Whoa, look at these two. Alright, come on. You’re OK,” he said in a fan video as a man and woman quickly hid their faces and tried to escape the camera. “Either they’re having an affair or they’re just very shy. I’m not quite sure what to do.”

Once the two attendees completely disappeared from the shot, Martin added, “Holy s***. I hope we didn’t do something bad.”

After the concert footage quickly went viral on social media, the internet discovered the pair put on the big screen were Astronomer CEO Andy ByronAndy ByronAndy Byron and his company’s Chief People Officer, Kristin Cabot.

In an added twist, Byron is reportedly married — to a woman multiple outlets identified as Megan Kerrigan Byron — not Cabot.
