Legendary filmmaker Martin Scorsese has been tapped by Kith and Giorgio Armani to star in their latest campaign, marking a unique collaboration between the two brands. This partnership highlights the first-ever collaboration between Kith and Armani, though it is not Scorsese’s first with the Italian fashion house.

Career Highlights: Martin Scorsese is widely regarded as one of the greatest filmmakers in cinema history, with a career spanning over five decades. Known for his mastery of storytelling, Scorsese has directed some of the most iconic films in American cinema, including Taxi Driver (1976), Raging Bull (1980), Goodfellas (1990), The Departed (2006), and The Irishman (2019). His work often explores themes of morality, crime, and the human condition, establishing him as a visionary in both narrative and style.

Scorsese has received numerous accolades throughout his career, including an Academy Award for Best Director for The Departed, as well as several nominations and wins across various film festivals and awards bodies. Beyond directing, he is also a passionate advocate for film preservation and is the founder of The Film Foundation, a nonprofit organization dedicated to the preservation and restoration of films.

This collaboration with Armani and Kith brings Scorsese’s unique presence into the fashion world, adding another dimension to his illustrious career. With his deep connection to Armani and his cinematic influence, Scorsese brings a touch of old-school glamour and cultural significance to this high-profile campaign.

Amy Brenneman Has Signed With Anonymous Content for Management

Amy Brenneman has signed with Anonymous Content for management, a move that pairs one of TV’s most enduring dramatic forces with a firm best known for shaping the prestige-TV-to-film-to-global-streaming crossover pipeline. You know—the good stuff.

Brenneman is probably on your mental IMDb for roles that were either heartbreaking, critically acclaimed, or some hybrid of both. She broke out on NYPD Blue in the ‘90s, created and starred in Judging Amy (based on her own mother, no less), and spent six spiritually chaotic seasons on Private Practice. More recently, she delivered a grief-laced gut punch as Laurie Garvey in The Leftovers, HBO’s existential apocalypse series that started weird and ended sublime.

She currently stars in Amazon’s The Horror of Dolores Roach and is set to appear in the upcoming indie drama Tinkers, alongside an ensemble of festival favorites.

Brenneman continues to be repped by CAA and Apex Public Relations, but Anonymous gives her a new vector: the kind of management firm that gets your drama into a film festival and your memoir optioned by A24 in the same month.

Rosalía Signs New Endorsement Deal With New Balance

Rosalía has a new gig. No, it’s not a flamenco-electronica fusion project with Björk (though give it time). It’s New Balance. The Spanish genre-blurring pop priestess has officially signed on as the brand’s newest ambassador—and the cinematic lead in a five-part campaign that feels less like a sneaker launch and more like a Netflix pilot.

Her debut centers around the 204L silhouette, a sleek, retro-tinged model that now comes with just the right amount of Iberian cool. The film series follows Rosalía from New Balance HQ to the streets of New York, where she hand-delivers a mysterious package. Spoiler: it’s a painting. Of a logo. For a shoe. And yes, it somehow works.

With this move, Rosalía laces up alongside a stacked New Balance roster that includes Jack Harlow, Action Bronson, Aminé, and Storm Reid—not to mention athletes like Shohei Ohtani, Coco Gauff, Kawhi Leonard, and Cooper Flagg. The brand is building a cinematic universe, and Rosalía just got top billing.

Call it performance art. Call it branded content. Call it another step in New Balance’s

Adidas Taps Missy Elliott, Samuel L. Jackson, GloRilla, Jennie, and More for Its Latest Superstar Campaign

Adidas’ “Superstar” campaign returns with cinematic flair and an all-star cast, highlighting the timeless influence of its iconic sneaker. Narrated by Samuel L. Jackson, the campaign kicks off with a moody teaser titled “Pyramids,” which compares the shoe’s cultural permanence to, well, actual pyramids. “No Wi-Fi. No food court. But 4,000 years later, people still fly across the world to see ‘em,” Jackson quips.

The full spot, “Clocks,” ups the tempo and the roster. Music legends Missy Elliott, GloRilla, Teezo Touchdown, and BLACKPINK’s Jennie appear alongside NBA star Anthony Edwards, skateboarding icon Mark Gonzales, and model-actress Gabbriette.

Mike Epps Signs with Artists First for Management

The Upshaws are in their final season, but Mike Epps isn’t going anywhere.

The veteran comic and actor has signed with Artists First for management, joining a roster that leans into multi-hyphenates and comedy heavyweights. He continues to be repped by UTA across film and TV, IAG for comedy touring, and Kovert Creative for publicity.

And while a lot of comedians are going podcast-microphone-in-the-basement, Epps is still a stage guy. He recently headlined the Fireworks in Paradise Comedy Festival in the Bahamas, adding a little sun to his signature brand of grit-and-glam. Before that? He suited up as a guest sideline reporter for the Big 3, casually trading punchlines for play-by-play.

Epps currently stars in and executive produces Netflix’s The Upshaws, which just announced its fifth and final season. He also recently appeared in The Underdoggs alongside Snoop Dogg and can be seen in the docu-special Buying Back the Block on HGTV, a more personal lens into his off-stage mission.

If you forgot that Mike Epps also writes, in 2017

Liquid Assets: The Celebrity Hydration Gold Rush

Water is the new tequila — and everyone from Logan Paul to Michelle Obama is trying to own your thirst.

Hydration used to be a functional category. PepsiCo built it with Gatorade. Coca-Cola responded with Powerade, then doubled down by acquiring BodyArmor for $8 billion. Unilever shelled out a reported $600 million for Liquid I.V. — a packet-based upstart with celebrity investors ranging from Kendall Jenner to

Sauce Gardner Signs On as Brand Ambassador for Q-Collar

Jets star and All-Pro cornerback Sauce Gardner has found his latest matchup off the field—this time with the Q-Collar, the first and only FDA-cleared sports device designed to help protect the brain from repetitive head impacts.

Gardner wore the collar throughout the 2024 NFL season after discovering it during a personal deep dive into player safety. The journey started with a solo purchase and ended, naturally, with a full-blown ambassadorship. Now officially part of the Q30 Innovations team, Sauce brings both star power and lived experience to a product built around performance

Travis Scott Enters His Smoothie Era with Erewhon Collab

Travis Scott is blending vibes—literally. The rapper and creative polymath has joined the Erewhon smoothie club with the debut of his first-ever signature drink: the “Storm Storm Smoothie,” named after his daughter, Stormi. Equal parts nutrient-dense and brand-aligned, the smoothie is the latest move in Scott’s ever-expanding empire of unexpected partnerships.

Curated by Scott himself (because of course), the drink brings his signature touch to Erewhon’s lineup—a menu already known for turning celebrity collaborations into $20 cultural events. He joins a tight club that includes BLACKPINK’s Lisa, Tyla, and Sabrina Carpenter, all of whom have previously lent their names (and presumably taste preferences) to the upscale grocery chain’s blender.

The Erewhon deal follows a bigger one: Scott was recently named Oakley’s first-ever Chief Visionary, tasked with shaping the brand’s creative future. And if you’re sensing a marketing wave building, you’re not wrong—Scott is also teasing the release

Dillon Gabriel Signs Endorsement Deal With Chrysler

Some athletes launch their pro careers with sports cars. Dillon Gabriel chose a Chrysler Pacifica.

Yes, the Heisman hopeful and freshly minted Oregon alum has signed on as the newest ambassador for Chrysler’s flagship family hauler—a minivan with more sliding doors than pass attempts in the Big 12. The move, equal parts surprising and brilliant, introduces Gabriel not just as a quarterback but as a brand-ready adult with Bluetooth priorities and cargo space sensibilities.

It’s his first major endorsement since going pro, though not his first dance with brands. During his collegiate run—UCF, Oklahoma, Oregon, in that order—he landed deals with Celsius, Beats by Dre, and even Great Clips (which, if you’ve seen his hair, was either ironic or a warning label).

Now, with over 230K followers and a clean transition into the NFL pipeline, Gabriel is front and center in Chrysler’s pitch for the Pacifica: a minivan for people who want horsepower, room for cleats, and just enough swagger to make “carpool” feel like a flex.

You know, for when your QB1 energy also needs to hold groceries.

Shania Twain and Clearly Canadian Join Forces For New Campaign

In a campaign that feels like the closest thing to a national holiday for Gen X and elder millennials, Clearly Canadian has made a fizzy comeback—with Shania Twain in tow. The sparkling water brand, dormant in the ad world since 1991, is reintroducing itself with help from another icon who hasn’t aged a day and still knows how to sell a chorus: Twain, now rebranded as Canada’s most glamorous beverage bandit.

The commercial, produced by Ryan Reynolds’ Maximum Effort, plays like a cross between Indiana Jones and a REI fever dream. Shania sprints through the woods, dodges imaginary bears, and commandeers a cooler full of Clearly Canadian with the grace of someone who’s absolutely been here

Jack Harlow and Endrick Appear in New Balance’s Latest Tennis-Inspired Spot

New Balance has a sneaker called the T-500, which is not a robot but a tennis shoe — and in its latest campaign, it turns out that tennis can, in fact, be played inside a shoebox. A real one. With real football phenom Endrick volleying around not with a racket, but a soccer ball, because the rules are flexible in surreal brand worlds.

The new installment in New Balance’s “Quiet Please” series places the Real Madrid-bound striker in the middle of a match that’s less Wimbledon and more meta-sport satire. The kicker? It’s all happening inside an oversized shoebox. Watching from the sidelines of this box-universe are Endrick himself (life-sized this time) and model Gabriely Miranda, lounging at a country

Damson Idris Signs with ID-PR, Expanding His Power Team Behind the Scenes

Damson Idris has signed with ID-PR for public relations, further rounding out a behind-the-scenes team that’s as calculated and polished as his rise to stardom. He continues to be repped by CAA for talent, managed by M88, and represented in the UK by Laraview—a boutique firm helmed by Aira Idris, who, yes, is likely family. Hollywood may be built on relationships, but this one’s literally in the bloodline.

The London-born actor has emerged as one of his generation’s most versatile and magnetic performers, thanks in large part to his breakout role as Franklin Saint on Snowfall—the critically acclaimed FX drama co-created by John Singleton. For fans of the show (and there are many, who knows I might even have it playing in the background while I’m writing this), Idris’ transformation from a bright, entrepreneurial teen into a haunted kingpin was a masterclass in narrative slow burn and emotional precision. It also turned him into a must-watch name for casting directors and streaming platforms alike.

Since Snowfall wrapped its final season in 2023, Idris hasn’t slowed down. He starred opposite Anthony Mackie in Netflix’s sci-fi action film Outside the Wire, executive

Golden Brooks Signs With Industry Entertainment

Golden Brooks, the actress beloved for her breakout role as Maya Wilkes on the seminal UPN/CW series Girlfriends, has signed with Industry Entertainment for management. She’ll be repped by Dana Sims, joining a roster known for guiding talent across both prestige TV and commercial hits.

Brooks, a trained dancer and Yale School of Drama alum, has long been celebrated for her sharp comedic timing and emotional depth—traits that made Girlfriends a cultural touchstone and her character a fan favorite during its eight-season run. In recent years, she’s continued to stack credits that showcase her range, from the Starz crime drama Power Book II: Ghost to the Disney Channel series Saturdays.

Beyond acting, Brooks has directed short films and participated in women-focused creative panels and mentorship initiatives. Her move to Industry signals a continued push into new territory—on and off screen—at a time when the original Girlfriends generation is seeing renewed interest from both audiences and Hollywood execs looking to mine nostalgia with purpose.

Travis Scott Is Oakley’s First-Ever ‘Chief Visionary’

Oakley has tapped Travis Scott as its inaugural Chief Visionary, handing over the creative reins to the rapper and his Cactus Jack collective in a multi-year partnership designed to reshape the brand’s future—one pair of shades at a time.

The role isn’t just honorary. Scott will be involved in revamping Oakley’s classic styles, co-developing new eyewear and apparel, and starring in upcoming campaigns that blend Oakley’s action-sport DNA with the Cactus Jack universe. In doing so, he becomes part of a growing trend of brands handing real creative control to artists, echoing Ray-Ban’s recent appointment of A$AP Rocky as its

Jeremy Allen White Joins Louis Vuitton

Jeremy Allen White, the smoldering, stress-smoking soul of FX’s “The Bear,” has traded his chef’s apron for couture suiting as the newest brand ambassador for Louis Vuitton. It’s a move that makes sense if you’ve been watching White’s fashion arc—slowly sautéed over a few seasons of critical acclaim and served up at increasingly exclusive red carpets, where he’s swapped kitchen whites for pearl-buttoned tailoring and brooches bigger than the steaks Carmy never has time to plate.

This partnership became inevitable the moment he walked into the 2024 Met Gala in a custom Vuitton number designed by Pharrell: a pinstriped three-piece ensemble with just enough

Benson Boone Brings the Heartland to Hi-Fi in New JBL Campaign

Benson Boone—TikTok heartthrob turned chart-climbing crooner—is now adding “audio ambassador” to his résumé. The breakout singer has been announced as the new face of JBL’s summer campaign, marking a slick fusion of sound and sentimentality as the brand unveils its latest tech-forward lineup, including the Tour Pro 3 earbuds and the all-new Flip 7.

To kick off the partnership, Boone didn’t just post a selfie or toss up a story. Instead, he arrived at JBL’s SoHo store in a vintage convertible (because of course), blaring “Mystical Magical” from his debut album Fireworks & Rollerblades, while dishing out custom-designed JBL Flip 7 speakers to an eager crowd of fans. It was the kind of flash-mob moment that social strategists dream of—part activation, part love letter to the fandom, all very on-brand for Boone’s dreamy DIY aesthetic.

The collaboration is JBL’s latest swing at Gen Z relevance, and Boone, with his nearly 20 million monthly Spotify listeners and fast-climbing global recognition, is a well-calibrated bet. His debut album—released earlier this year—debuted to strong streaming numbers and fanfare, with hits like “Beautiful Things” and “Slow

Post Malone Teams with Stanley for Camo-Covered Hydration Line

In a crossover that feels like equal parts hip-hop tour bus and backcountry hike, Post Malone has joined forces with Stanley 1913—the venerable drinkware brand known for fueling fishing trips and your uncle’s coffee addiction—for a rugged capsule collection that brings camo to the cult of hydration.

The drop, which includes Stanley’s classic tumblers, stackable cups, and adventure-ready bottles, is wrapped in camouflage and dusted with Posty’s signature blend of cozy chaos and functional cool. It’s the kind of merch that says “I like my whiskey neat, my water cold, and my headliner slot on time.”

This collaboration drops at a curious cultural moment: Stanley

Alec Baldwin Switches Agencies, Signs With UTA

In a move that feels half Shakespearean and half SNL cold open, Alec Baldwin has signed with UTA for representation. It’s not a reinvention per se—more like a veteran trading one agency playbook for another. Baldwin continues to be managed by Matt DelPiano, but with UTA now handling the deal flow, it’s clear he’s ready for a new chapter, or at least a tighter script.

Baldwin’s career, after all, doesn’t fit neatly into a single genre or awards category. Over the last four decades, he’s racked up three Emmys, three Golden Globes, and seven straight SAG Awards for transforming NBC’s 30 Rock into the Wall Street Journal of sitcoms. (If you were ever unsure what “vertical integration” meant, Jack Donaghy probably explained it to you, between scotches.)

He also landed an Oscar nomination for The Cooler, proved his stage chops with a Tony-nominated run in A Streetcar Named Desire, and took home an Emmy for impersonating a former president whose name we’ll just gently whisper into the cold void: “Trump.” Add to that a long-running podcast, Here’s the Thing, and a smattering of dramatic turns (The Hunt for Red October, Glengarry Glen

Rauw Alejandro x Buchanan’s: When the Grill Meets the Groove

Rauw Alejandro is back in our feed and this time, he’s not just dropping chart-toppers or flexing choreography sharp enough to slice air—he’s manning the grill. Kind of. The Puerto Rican reggaetonero has partnered with Buchanan’s whisky for its latest culinary-meets-cultura spectacle: the Asados Unidos campaign.

If you’re unfamiliar with the term asado, it’s basically barbecue—but make it Latin American, deeply emotional, and a battleground for generational grilling philosophies. Enter Buchanan’s, the Scotch brand with a Latin soul, whose entire brand identity now seems built around making whisky as comfortable at a backyard cookout as it is on a mahogany bar cart in the Andes.

The campaign’s core thesis is one part sociology seminar and one part travel ad: despite our differences in spice level, smoke preference, and playlist choices (Merengue or Bomba? Discuss), it’s Buchanan’s that brings us together. Rauw, of course, plays the cultural diplomat here—grilling with friends from Puerto Rico, Argentina, Colombia, and Mexico across a four-part video series that’s basically Anthony

Vintage Culture Has Been Named Global Brand Ambassdor of Von Dutch

Somewhere between the Y2K renaissance and the revival of logo-core lies Von Dutch, a brand once favored by mid-2000s starlets and now freshly dipped in relevance. And who better to helm its return than Brazilian DJ and producer Vintage Culture, a man who knows a thing or two about high-octane nostalgia.

As the new global ambassador, Vintage Culture isn’t just posing in flame-stitched hats—he’s co-creating an exclusive capsule collection under Von Dutch’s new creative platform, Von Dutch Loves. Launching June 15, the line leans all the way in: distressed trucker hats, oversized graphic tees, and all the blurry-after-3am rave energy your feed can handle. The collection is, as the artist puts it, “a celebration of individuality,” though cynics might call it a well-timed play for post-ironic fashion supremacy.

And let’s be clear: this isn’t a vanity license plate gig. Vintage Culture, born Lukas Ruiz, has spent the last few years quietly becoming one of the most bankable names in dance music. With a sound that fuses deep house with melodic grooves and a stage presence that lights up arenas

Anthony Joshua Has Been Named New Brand Ambassador for Prep Kitchen

Two-time heavyweight world champion Anthony Joshua is trading uppercuts for upper crust, at least in the kitchen. He’s just been named a brand ambassador for Prep Kitchen, the performance meal prep company aiming to make chicken-and-rice feel a little less like a punishment and a little more like a privilege. But this isn’t just another athlete sticking his name on a food box and calling it a day. Joshua is diving in—literally flavor first.

In partnership with Prep Kitchen’s Head of Food, Paul Mason, Joshua is co-creating a limited-edition recipe collection inspired by his Nigerian roots. Among the culinary haymakers in the lineup: West African Style Red Pepper and Peanut Chicken, Suya Beef with Jollof Rice, and Nigerian Fish Curry. It’s both a nod to heritage and a branding move that tastes as smart as it looks bold. In a sea of “clean bulking” and “macro-balanced” platitudes, Joshua’s take adds actual flavor—an underutilized nutrient in performance marketing.

This isn’t Joshua’s first foray into the food and beverage space, either. He’s previously been backed by Lucozade and EQ Nutrition, names synonymous
