Grace Springer is revealing herself as the face behind the viral video.
Nearly a week after she posted a video of Astronomer CEO Andy Byron and an unidentified woman breaking from their close embrace and hiding from the camera after being featured on the jumbotron at a Coldplay concert in Massachusetts, the 28-year-old shared insight into how she’s benefitted from the viral moment.
“I’ve actually made no money from the video itself or the views,” Grace told hosts Alison Hammond and Dermot O’Leary on the July 21 episode of This Morning. “It’s not monetized.”
After all, she was only recording the moment because she was hoping to be featured on the jumbotron herself—along with the thousands of other fans at Gillette Stadium that night.
“I was hoping to see myself on the big screen, and I love to capture moments, so that’s why my phone was out in the first place,” she explained. “In the moment when I filmed it, I didn’t think much of it, but of course, everyone was kind of chattering.”
