e.l.f Cosmetics is bringing a dose of beauty and humor to the 2024 Super Bowl with their latest ad, starring pop sensation Meghan Trainor and television’s courtroom titan, Judge Judy, as “Judge Beauty.” The commercial, already making waves on YouTube, showcases a unique court case with a beauty twist.

👩‍⚖️ Courtroom Glamour: In this playful scenario, “Suits” actors Rick Hoffman and Gina Torres find themselves in front of Judge Beauty, with Torres’ character on trial for splurging on non-cruelty-free makeup. Meghan Trainor, serving as a juror, highlights the importance of ethical beauty choices, leading to a sentence that promotes e.l.f’s halo glow liquid filter for the defendant.

💄 Beauty Meets Justice: e.l.f Cosmetics’ chief marketing officer, Kory Marchisotto, emphasizes the brand’s commitment to culture, community, and inclusivity in the beauty industry. This Super Bowl ad campaign aims to place beauty at the heart of popular culture, reinforcing the brand’s mission to be at the forefront of meaningful conversations within its community.

With Meghan Trainor and Judge Judy at the helm, e.l.f Cosmetics’ Super Bowl commercial not only entertains but also delivers a powerful message about making informed, ethical beauty choices.

Trey Songz Signs With IAG

Trey Songz—the man who helped a generation of R&B fans confuse love with texting at 2 a.m.—has officially signed with Independent Artist Group (IAG) for representation. Yes, that Trey Songz. The inventor of the “Sex Playlist” energy before streaming platforms made those literal, the crooner who somehow made the phrase “Neighbors Know My Name” sound like both a flex and a zoning violation.

With over 8 million monthly Spotify listeners, and core fanbases across Sydney, Chicago, Los Angeles, Dallas, and Atlanta, Mr. Steal Your Girl is still very much on the playlist and in the bloodstream. His latest single, “Say the Word”, dropped this month as an independent release—because when you’ve already spent years signed to Atlantic and sold millions, sometimes you just want to whisper sweet nothings directly to your audience with no middlemen.

Trey, whose real name is Tremaine Neverson (which already sounds like a lost member of the royal family who moonlights at Drai’s),

Paige Bueckers Just Made Radiant Lilac Feel Like a Championship Ring.

In its quest to reclaim the misunderstood corners of the paint wheel, Sherwin-Williams has crowned Radiant Lilac SW 0074 as the Loneliest Color of 2025. Which is poetic branding for “no one’s buying this.” But instead of slapping it on an accent wall and hoping for the best, the company leaned all the way in — painting a broader message about visibility, marginalization, and of course, women’s basketball.

Enter Paige Bueckers, the No. 1 pick in this year’s WNBA Draft, rising star

Curry, Hart, and A’ja Wilson Chase the Cashback Crown

In Chase’s latest ad campaign, “Cashback Like a Pro,” we get the kind of brand exercise that feels less like a commercial and more like an All-Star Weekend scrimmage that somehow broke into a fintech conference. Stephen Curry and Kevin Hart are chirping back and forth about cashback rewards like it’s a Game 7 — until A’ja

Pamela Anderson Signs New Endorsement Deal with Biolage

Pamela Anderson is now officially your hair’s spiritual advisor.

In what might be the most unexpected brand-first-meets-career-second-act alignment of 2024, Biolage has named the 57-year-old icon its first-ever global ambassador—a sentence that somehow feels both overdue and perfectly timed. It’s the first ambassador deal of this scale for Biolage in 30 years, and also Anderson’s first foray into the haircare ad space. Which, when you think about it, is kind of wild. The woman defined beach hair.

The debut campaign—titled “The BS Campaign (Biolage Science)” because subtlety is dead—drops June 2 and will spotlight the brand’s bestselling Hydra Source collection, because if there’s one thing Pamela Anderson has taught us, it’s that you can survive literal tidal waves and still come out with glossy, frizz-free ends.

But make no mistake: this isn’t just a nostalgic play. Anderson’s post-documentary renaissance has become a masterclass in reclaimed narrative.

Sam Richardson Is Now Your Giant Financial Bestie, Courtesy of Experian

Experian wants to be more than just your credit score overlord. It wants to be your emotionally supportive, financially literate best friend. And to make that vision a little more relatable—and a lot more 6’5”—the company has cast Sam Richardson as its new spokesperson in a campaign that asks, “What if Experian were an actual person who followed you around, helped you make responsible decisions, and looked like a lovable giant from a sitcom multiverse?”

The answer, apparently, is: it’d be pretty charming.

Dua Lipa Puts Her Gloss Where Her Voice Is — With YSL Beauty

YSL Beauty has tapped Dua Lipa—global pop star, fashion maximalist, and walking serotonin dispenser—to front its campaign for the new LOVESHINE Plumping Lip Oil Gloss, a product that sounds like it was named during a sugar rush and a brainstorm session in equal measure. Naturally, Dua Lipa is the face of it. Because if you’re launching a product that promises shine, heat, and a little bit of chaos, you don’t cast a minimalist.

The campaign leans heavily into Lipa’s entire public thesis: bold color, playful energy, slight vintage callback, unapologetic glamour. This isn’t a subtle gloss. This is a disco ball in oil form. “Lipstick is my go-to beauty product,” Lipa says in the official statement. Which feels like a helpful clarification for anyone who’s ever seen her walk a carpet and thought, “This woman definitely loves math.”

This isn’t Dua’s first ride with YSL. She’s been a beauty ambassador for the house, and this campaign marks a natural extension—like if Studio 54

Kendrick Lamar’s Stars In New Gatorade Ad About Losing. But You Know, In a Cool Way.

Kendrick Lamar’s latest Gatorade campaign, part of the brand’s 2025 “Lose More. Win More.” initiative, isn’t about sports drinks so much as it is about existential sweat. This is Gatorade-as-haiku. And Kendrick, of course, is the narrator of your inner monologue after a personal failure and a 12-minute run that made you reconsider everything.

The spot, released May 25, leans hard into monochrome minimalism—black-and-white cinematography, meditative voiceover, controlled pacing—before erupting into splashes of Gatorade color like a Jackson Pollock

The Weeknd Joins Forces With Nespresso

The Weeknd has joined forces with Nespresso, because of course he has. If you’re a multi-platinum, genre-shattering global superstar with a taste for icy falsettos and atmospheric dread, what’s the logical next move? Launch a coffee brand named after your mom.

Enter “Samra Origins,” a limited-edition Ethiopian blend created in collaboration with Nespresso that promises to be “best enjoyed over ice,” which, frankly, is also a pretty good tagline for The Weeknd himself. The collection

Offset Has Signed With Wasserman for Representation

Offset has signed with Wasserman for representation, because at a certain point in your post-Migos evolution, you stop trying to run the playbook and start trying to own the team.

This is not a small move. Wasserman is the kind of place you go when you’re thinking beyond the tour—when brand equity needs structure, not just style. Offset, still managed by Full Stop, joins a roster that knows how to build global franchises out of genre-benders, crossover acts, and cultural lightning rods. Which, let’s be honest, is Offset in a nutshell.

He was previously with IAG, but this is different. This is clean lines and long-term strategy. This is “I’m not just a rapper, I’m a property.”

Offset has over 15.5 million monthly listeners on Spotify, and if you’re mapping influence, you’ll find him blaring out of speakers in Chicago, Toronto, Dallas, L.A., and Sydney—because hip-hop globalization doesn’t need a passport, just bass. His most recent single, “TEN”, dropped on Valentine’s Day

Marsal Ventura Has signed With Analog

Marsal Ventura has signed with Analog for worldwide representation, which feels right for a DJ who treats genres the way tapas treats food groups—grab a little of everything, don’t overthink it, and make sure it pairs well with something loud.

Ventura’s not new to this. He’s been building dancefloors and twisting expectations since long before techno flamenco was something people took seriously—or Googled to make sure it wasn’t a typo. Now, he’s clocking 255,000 monthly listeners on Spotify, with Spain lighting up the heatmap like it’s voting in Eurovision. Madrid, Barcelona, Valencia, Bilbao, Málaga—it’s less of a fanbase and more of a distributed rhythm section.

His latest remix, “Caballo Maldito,” blends techno kick drums with flamenco handclaps like it’s trying to out-seduce both Berlin and Seville at the same time. And somehow, it works. It’s not EDM. It’s not traditional. It’s… emotionally percussive. It’s what happens when you turn a Spanish horse chant into a club anthem.
