Only NY & NYCFC Return to Honor "The FC Made in NYC'
The latest NYCFC capsule is comprised of two graphic tees, a crewneck sweatshirt, an embroidered cap, and a crochet bucket hat. The main graphic, applied to the back of a co-branded tee and a crewneck pullover, shows a lively park scene against the city skyline, complete with a soccer game in progress. Another illustrated graphic tee puts the NYCFC pigeon mascot front and center, evoking a style reminiscent of NYC-based artistKeith Haring.
Headwear is a highlight in the range, led by the crochet bucket hat boasting 'NEW YORK CITY' on the crown and the NYCFC emblem on the top. Alternatively, Only NY offers a classic ball cap with understated embroidery reading 'The FC Made in NYC.' The collection is topped off with a duo of collectible objects: first, a printed pint glass shows the pigeon mascot dressed in full team merch, and lastly, a special poster print of the aforementioned park illustration.
The partners last linked up in May, when Only NY unveiled the Borough Night City Celebration Series collection. Having become an official licensee in 2025, Only NY's own Micah Belamarich illustrated the Five Boroughs T-shirt, which featured symbols of Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island.
See the campaign in the gallery above and shop the collection on theOnly NY webstorebeginning on July 24.

Prince Harry Just Channeled Meghan Markle in the Most Thoughtful Way
It's no secret that couples tend to rub off on each other. Prince William's been spotted borrowing Kate Middleton's parenting moves and Princess Catherine has clearly taken a few style notes from her husband. As for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle? The trend holds true and Harry's latest move proves it. On July 19, NYC tattoo artist Joshua Lord, owner of the celeb-favorite East Side Ink, took to Instagram to share a photo of a handwritten letter he received from the Duke of Sussex. Harry had visited the Manhattan parlor back in September 2024 and while he didn't get inked, the visit was part of a special filming session tied to the Invictus Games Vancouver Whistler 2025. A group photo from that day also featured country star Jelly Roll, who headlined the Games' closing ceremony. The letter, dated October 17, 2024, seemed genuine, thoughtful and a little cheeky. 'Dear Josh, thank you so much for your generosity in offering us your space at East Side Ink for filming,' it began. 'It was incredibly kind, and I really enjoyed meeting you and learning more about the history of your shop.' 'I also appreciated your artful handling of press questions regarding my visit, it means a lot and I was rather impressed by your skillful dodging! Well done," Harry added. "They'll be in for a shock when they see the final cut.' The Duke of Sussex wrapped up by extending a personal invite, 'If you'd like to come to Vancouver in February, we'd love to have you! All the best, Harry.' Sound familiar? That thoughtful handwritten note is very Meghan Markle-coded (a.k.a. it's something she's done numerous times before as well). Back in March, the Duchess of Sussex made headlines for sending a surprise letter to Not Skinny But Not Fat podcast host Amanda Hirsch after she expressed concern online about Meghan's Netflix project. Meghan's response? Short, sweet and reassuring, 'Dear Amanda, I heard you were feeling scared. Don't be! This is the fun part — let's enjoy it.' In both cases, it's a reminder that despite royal titles and global spotlights, a personal note still goes a long way—and it seems Prince Harry may be picking up on one of Meghan's most charming habits.

Melody Shari Hosts Private Premiere Of ‘Childcare Cartel', Cast & Creator Celebrate Sizzling Series
The women of The Childcare Cartel docuseries rolled out the red carpet for an exclusive, adults-only networking and watch party, and BOSSIP was on the scene to see the sizzling series. Source: Freddy O / The luxe gathering took place at Atlanta's Modex Studio and was moderated by award-winning actress and entrepreneur, Melody Shari. Source: Freddy O / The event spotlighted the groundbreaking unscripted series that follows a tight-knit circle of female childcare bosses balancing business, life, and the weight of running empires where one misstep could change everything. Source: Freddy O / The atmosphere was electric and elegant as Childcare Cartel pulled back the velvet curtain for an exclusive, star-studded evening in Atlanta. Guests draped in pastel perfection gathered under lush florals, luxe drapery, and candlelit decor curated by The Bella Xperience, setting the scene for a night of networking, noshing, and next-level inspiration. Over 100 of Atlanta's finest, including moguls, media mavericks, and mogul moms, turned out to toast the upcoming docuseries. In attendance were cast members Sherri J. White, Janaya Burke, Keisha 'Starr' Archer, and Sydney Jordan, along with #RHOA creator Princess Banton-Lofters, restaurateur Ebony Austin, and media executive Chanel Nicole Scott. Source: Freddy O / The night also featured panel discussions packed with business gems guided by Melody Shari, delivering raw and rare insight into the realities of running a childcare empire. The grand finale was a private premiere of the game-changing reality series that follows bold businesswomen navigating babies, budgets, and big boss moves in pursuit of generational wealth. The Childcare Cartel isn't your typical feel-good family series. It's a bold, behind-the-scenes reality show created by Atlanta-based mogul mom Sherri J. White, spotlighting the high-stakes world of Black women running early childhood education empires. Source: Freddy O / The docuseries peels back the layers of licensing, lawsuits, burnout, betrayal, sisterhood—and the beauty and chaos in between. Think: less playgrounds, more power moves. The featured cast includes Martika Reddick, Janiya Burke, Keisha 'Starr' Archer, and Sydney Goggins, four childcare owners whose personal and professional journeys anchor the heart of the series. 'I had to close my center today,' said Sherri J. with a laugh to BOSSIP. 'I came here in my work clothes and got dressed at the venue. But I feel really, really good. People are excited—they're ready to network and get into what The Childcare Cartel is all about.' Here's what each of the featured women had to say about their journeys, and what they hope viewers take away. As the creator, executive producer, and owner of multiple centers, Sherri J. is the heartbeat of the show. She wants viewers to look beyond the surface of daycare. Source: Freddy O / 'I want people to understand that childcare is more,' she said. 'It's about the women behind it. You'll see each woman going through something different—some business, some tea—but mostly, it's a reminder that this is a space where you can be a woman first. Yes, we're providers, but we're individuals too.' Though some attendees hoped to network for jobs, Sherri J. made it clear—she's fully staffed. 'Honestly? My payroll has hit its max,' she joked. 'I need someone else to open a center so I can send some of my staff over there.' More on the flip! Sherri's daughter Janaya Burke is opening her first center in Hapeville, but she's already walking in her own lane. Source: Freddy O / 'When I hear 'childcare cartel,' I think of a group of ballsy, sassy, hardworking individuals that come together to make it bigger than ever,' she said. 'Don't procrastinate. That was my biggest downfall. Whether you're scared or not, just do it now.' Former nightlife dancer turned childcare mogul Keisha 'Starr' Archer owns STAR Kids Academy 1 and 2. Her transformation alone deserves a whole season. Source: Freddy O / 'When I hear Childcare Cartel, I think of community. A group of women who can get together and speak about the childcare industry—and our lives outside of it. Because we have lives too.' Starr says balancing it all takes a toll. 'It costs a lot. Trying to be the strong one in your family while running a business? It's not easy.' At 30 years old, Martika is already a veteran in the game, with seven years under her belt. Source: Freddy O / 'What makes me feel most powerful is the respect I get at my age. The impact I've had on the city of Atlanta has made a tremendous impact on my life—and the kids.' Sydney, who co-runs a center with her mother, shared a raw perspective on what makes this industry uniquely stressful. Source: Freddy O / 'What separates childcare from other industries is the liability alone. Doctors make mistakes—insurance pays it out. We make a mistake, we're going to jail. Our business gets shut down.' She admitted that at one point, she struggled to set limits. 'I didn't know how to delegate. I made myself available to my parents and staff 24 hours a day. Learning boundaries literally saved my life.' Hit the flip for more details on Childcare Cartel' s big night. The evening offered more than a sneak peek—it was an experience. Guests enjoyed curated music, casting calls, and an elevated spread of hors d'oeuvres and drinks by Chef Tanya Chavis, owner of Pretti Plates on Cascade. Source: Freddy O / The menu included BBQ meatballs, jerk chicken, rice and peas, plantains, seafood rice, mac and cheese, chicken sliders, vegan selections, and charcuterie. The drinks? Custom cocktails named after the show: The Cartel – Vodka, Triple Sec, Fresh Lemon Juice Child's Play – Reposado, Triple Sec, Lime Juice, Agave Syrup, Jalapeños Playground Punch (Mocktail) – Pineapple, cranberry, orange, lime, and soda Forme r Love & Marriage: Huntsville star Melody Shari showed support on the carpet amid her hosting duties. Source: Freddy O / 'I feel so powerful knowing that my beauty brand is empowering women,' she said. 'I was so excited when I learned about The Childcare Cartel—I'm just like wow, look at these amazing boss women who look like me owning their lane in the billion-dollar childcare industry!' Chanel Nicole Scott, CMO of In the Black Network, also pulled up. 'When I first heard the name, I was like oh wow—this will catch some eyeballs! I thought it was absolutely creative.' When asked what her superpower is with kids? 'I'm a kid myself! I don't have any children, so quite naturally—when you don't have, you love them more. And you get to send them home when you're done, ha!' Yanoviah Murphy, founder of The Care Crew Team nanny service, was also in the room. At just 17 years old, she attended to network, gaining a powerful takeaway. 'If you have a mission, it's important for you to just go for it,' she said. 'The ladies didn't let anything stop them, which inspired me.' Shannette Rivera, who flew in from Miami, owns Unique Kids Pre School and has been in the game for more than two decades. 'We don't have things like this where I'm from,' she said. 'So I had to come here to Atlanta—and I'm grateful to network today.' There's a new cartel on the block, but it's not moving bricks, it's moving babies, blueprints, and bold strategy. The Childcare Carte l is the docuseries we didn't know we needed, until it pulled up with high heels, clipboards, and center keys in hand. Source: Freddy O / At first glance, the show plays like a Real Housewives spin-off: there are luxe buildings, dramatic boardroom moments, and a cast of women with both grit and glam. But underneath the lashes and legacy talk is something deeper—something revolutionary. The show isn't just about business. It's about what happens when Black women decide they're no longer just caretakers—they're CEOs. The first season is fully filmed! While it's still in network negotiations, The Childcare Cartel is already doing what great shows do—sparking conversation, creating visibility, and rewriting narratives. 'This isn't just about watching children,' said Sherri J. 'It's about shaping generations—and showing the world what it really takes.' Ready to tune in?

MrBeast Makes Astronomer Joke After Gwyneth Paltrow Video
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. MrBeast, who was recently named the top content creator in the world by Forbes, has reacted to one of the year's most viral stories, the Astronomer Coldplay "kiss-cam scandal." In a post on X, formerly Twitter, MrBeast responded to the company's recent marketing video, which featured Gwyneth Paltrow. Newsweek has reached out to a representative for MrBeast via email for comment. Why It Matters MrBeast's social media post comes after a split-second clip of Astronomer CEO Andy Byron and his colleague Kristin Cabot was shared on social media and promptly broke the internet. The video, first shared by instaagraace on TikTok, has been viewed over 128 million times as of time of writing. Left, MrBeast speaks onstage during YouTube Brandcast 2025 at David Geffen Hall in New York City on May 14, 2025.

Left, MrBeast speaks onstage during YouTube Brandcast 2025 at David Geffen Hall in New York City on May 14, 2025. Right, Gwyneth Paltrow attends the 2025 Breakthrough Prize Ceremony at Barker Hangar in Santa Monica, California, on April 5, 2025. More Taylor Hill/FilmMagic/for YouTube In the clip, the jumbotron lands on the pair and they promptly sprang apart. Coldplay's lead singer Chris Martin, says: "Either they're having an affair or they're just really shy." The pair were later identified as Byron, CEO of the tech firm Astronomer, and Cabot, the company's head of Human Resources. Both have now resigned. What To Know On July 26, Astronomer shared a light-hearted marketing video which capitalizes on the attention that has been brought to the company since the now infamous Coldplay canoodling. The video features Paltrow, Martin's Oscar-winning ex-wife, as a "very temporary spokesperson." MrBeast, real name Jimmy Donaldson, responded to this on X. In a post that has been viewed over 230,000 times, he wrote, "Can I be CEO." Astronomer's board of directors have announced that they will start a formal search for their new chief executive. Company co-founder Pete DeJoy has taken over as interim CEO. He said on Monday that Astronomer has faced an "unusual and surreal" amount of attention in recent days. Astronomer is a New York-based company that helps companies develop, grow, and analyze products using artificial intelligence. MrBeast, whose YouTube channel boasts over 416 million subscribers, is the owner of multiple companies, including Feastables and MrBeast Burger. He has previously shared posts on social media expressing interest in buying the social media platform X from Elon Musk. In June, as part of their list of Top Content Creators, Forbes reported that MrBeast had earnings of $85 million. Back in 2022, Forbes reported the 27-year-old could become the world's "first YouTuber billionaire," reporting at the time that he had a net worth of $500 million. What People Are Saying An Astronomer spokesperson previously told Newsweek in a statement: "Astronomer is committed to the values and culture that have guided us since our founding. Our leaders are expected to set the standard in both conduct and accountability, and recently, that standard was not met." What's Next The search for Astronomer's new CEO is ongoing.
