Mill Valley Music Festival announces line-up including headliners Gary Clark Jr., Nile Rogers and Chic
Started in 2022 as a single-day event held at Mill Valley Community Center's Friends Field that featured sets from Ben Harper and the Innocent Criminals, Lettuce and Los Amigos Invisibles, the success of the inaugural edition led to organizers expanding the festival to a full weekend for the 2023 edition. Last year, thousands turned out to see alt-folk band Fleet Foxes, modern roots-music masters Greensky Bluegrass, rising country star Margo Price and notable R&B acts Thee Sacred Souls and St. Paul and the Broken Bones.
Operated in partnership with Noise Pop Industries (the same organization that puts on San Francisco's highly anticipated Noise Pop Festival annually), this year's Mill Valley Music Festival will be held on May 10-11 and will also feature performances by such noted acts as Jason Crosby's tribute to his famed folk-rock legend father David, the Crosby Collective, North Bay psychedelic soul crew Monophonics, African guitar great Vieux Farka Touré, beloved reggae vocalist Sister Nancy, jazz-funk group Ghost-Note (featuring members of Snarky Puppy) and LA-based soul group the Sinseers.
Tickets for the festival are currently available for purchase and range in price from $117-$499 for regular and VIP two-day passes. Tickets and additional information on the Mill Valley Music Festival can be found on the festival website.

Trump's praise for Sweeney ad sends American Eagle stock surging
American Eagle Outfitters saw its stock price surge more than 20% on Monday, after President Trump praised the retailer's controversial marketing campaign featuring actress Sydney Sweeney on his Truth Social platform. 'Sydney Sweeney, a registered Republican, has the 'HOTTEST' ad out there. It's for American Eagle, and the jeans are 'flying off the shelves.' Go get 'em Sydney!' Trump wrote Monday morning, sparking the rally in shares that began after markets opened. The president's endorsement comes amid a firestorm of criticism over the campaign. The controversy centers on a promotional video featuring Sweeney that was posted to American Eagle's social media channels. The video has since been removed. In the teaser, the 'Euphoria' actress discusses hereditary traits in a sultry voice, stating: 'Genes are passed down from parents to offspring, often determining traits like hair color, personality and even eye color. My jeans are blue.' As she speaks, the video shows Sweeney zipping up her jeans before the camera pans up her body and focuses on her face and blue eyes, framed by blonde hair. The visual emphasis on Sweeney's features prompted backlash from critics on the internet who were quick to accuse the ad of promoting eugenics and aligning with white nationalist messaging. Pittsburgh-based American Eagle defended the campaign in a statement it posted to Instagram last Friday, saying it 'is and always was about the jeans.' Trump used the opportunity to criticize what he called 'woke' advertising, citing examples like Jaguar's recent rebrand and Bud Light's partnership with transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney in 2023. 'The market cap destruction has been unprecedented, with BILLIONS OF DOLLARS SO FOOLISHLY LOST,' he wrote, contrasting those campaigns with American Eagle's approach. The stock surge represents the latest chapter in what has become a meme-driven rally for American Eagle, which initially jumped last month when retail traders piled into the stock following the campaign's debut. American Eagle has faced significant financial challenges in recent months. In May, the retailer withdrew its full-year guidance and announced a $75-million write-off of spring and summer merchandise due to slow sales, steep discounting and difficult market conditions. The company reported a first-quarter net revenue of $1.1 billion, down 5% from the prior year, with comparable sales falling 3%. Several prominent Republicans, including Vice President JD Vance and Sen. Ted Cruz, have also defended Sweeney and the campaign against criticism. The actress herself has not publicly addressed the controversy surrounding the advertisements. American Eagle shares closed at $13.28 on Monday, up 24%.

Zendaya and fiancé Tom Holland reunite to walk dogs ahead of ‘Spider-Man' filming
Zendaya and Tom Holland have been reunited after weeks of separate work obligations. The couple were photographed by the British tabloid The Sun enjoying some downtime strolling through London's Richmond Park with their dogs. Both actors wore casual outfits — Zendaya in a pink sweater and long black shorts, and Holland sporting a blue T-shirt and a red hat embroidered with the name of his non-alcoholic beer company, Bero. Though she was dressed down from her usual glam, the Oakland native still had on her dazzling engagement ring, a 5.02-carat diamond designed by London-based jeweler Jessica McCormack. Zendaya and Holland are now in Glasgow, Scotland to begin production on 'Spider-Man: Brand New Day,' which is expected to hit theaters on July 31. Prior to that, the ' Euphoria ' star was in Budapest filming 'Dune: Part Three,' while Holland spent time in England to promote Bero during Wimbledon. Earlier this year, the two were filming Christopher Nolan's mythic action flick ' The Odyssey, ' due out July 17. The forthcoming films and their subsequent press tours are a big reason why the couple's wedding won't be happening anytime soon, according to Law Roach, Zendaya's longtime stylist and friend. 'The process hasn't even started yet,' Roach told E! News at the Las Culturistas Culture Awards last month. 'We have a lot of time.' 'She and Tom are super private about their relationship,' he told Complex in May. 'They try to be as private as possible, so like, there won't be a Vogue spread, or there won't be, you know, pictures of the wedding.' He added, 'The people that she will invite will be really respectful of their privacy.' Zendaya and Holland have been private about their relationship for years, and only went public when paparazzi leaked photos of them kissing in a car in 2021. Neither actor has spoken about their upcoming nuptials, but Zendaya showed off her engagement ring at the Golden Globe Awards in January. Holland's father was the one who later confirmed the news.

Cardi B hosts WWE SummerSlam in a yards-long feathered cape and corset
Came through drippin' — in feathers, that is. Cardi B hosted WWE SummerSlam at MetLife Stadium Saturday, bringing the drama in an attention-grabbing feather cape with a yards-long train. Styled by Kollin Carter, the musician turned heads as she stepped out in a custom plumage-covered piece courtesy of Cheney Chan, which took up quite a bit of the stage. Cardi B wore the floor-sweeping cape atop a coordinating feathered corset bodysuit with a sweetheart neckline, also created by the Beijing-based couture designer. The mother of three balanced out the leg-baring look with black knee-high boots from Le Silla. Hairstylist Tokyo Stylez pulled Cardi B's long, dark tresses into an incredibly high (and tight ponytail), while makeup artist Erika La' Pearl made her eyes pop with i-ENVY lashes. 'HELLO!!! It's me… Welcome to SUMMER SLAM! ,' Cardi B captioned an Instagram video from night one of the two-day wrestling event. 'The way you can put anything on and make it look good ' one person commented on the post. During her hosting duties, Cardi previewed a new song from her upcoming sophomore album, 'Am I the Drama?' The record's slated for a September 19 release, and shows the rapper surrounded by black crows. As a nod to the album art, Cardi's been flocking to bird-inspired looks lately, having attended the Schiaparelli fall 2025 couture show last month with a live crow perched on her hand.
