It’s been a scintillating week, folks. Star-studded streets were talking and buzzing all over the country, from Broadway openings to mammoth product launch events by Hollywood’s biggest stars. Rachel Zegler marked her opening night in Romeo + Juliet, shining on Broadway, while Rihanna took a different approach when she launched Fenty x Puma Avanti sneakers in Los Angeles, letting kids take center stage as her interviewers.
Meanwhile, Pete Davidson and Machine Gun Kelly caught a sneak peek at the Intuit Dome for *The Room*, which marks Davidson’s first public appearance since his summer stint on mental health treatment. Here are some closer looks at the best celebrity moments from this week’s events and outings.
Rihanna’s Unique Fenty x Puma Avanti Launch with Young Influencers
Instead of the usual sea of journalists, a feel-good lineup of young influencers was tasked to present Rihanna’s latest Fenty x Puma Avanti sneaker launch. In Los Angeles, that included letting children ask the questions at a press conference that became a launching pad for her soccer-inspired kicks.
She was accompanied by young stars such as Jazlyn “Jazzy” Guerra and Bowie Layne Barcena, whose lots of very youthful energy made the event memorable. In this approach, Rihanna did not only celebrate the sheer wealth of her sneaker collection but also fashion made fun and accessible for all ages.
Fenty x Puma Avanti takes the style of classic football. In this shoe, Rihanna’s sporty-chic “Soccer Mom” aesthetic comes through. As always, the Avanti boasts stunning premium leather, fold-over tongue, and gum soles, which has already been sported by celebrities like Romeo Beckham.
Each colorway embodies Rihanna’s idea of bringing together athletic elegance with comfortable, everyday sensibility – something that truly makes the shoe stand out in the world of sportswear and street style. The sneakers can now be bought exclusively on Puma.com.
Hollywood Stars Steal the Show from L.A. to NYC
This week has been filled with so much Hollywood glamor out East and West Coast press appearances. New York City-spoiler alert: Rachel Zegler hosted opening night of *Romeo + Juliet* on Broadway beaming bright in a powerful yellow outfit. On the other end of the country, Patrick Dempsey charmed all in his photogenic look in Manhattan, proving that some things are timeless.
In L.A., Kerry Washington attended the dinner hosted by Tod’s at the Sunset Tower Hotel-dressing to impress in red. Such Red Carpet highlights of the stars’ varied fashion choices and trends going forward in both cities.
Also, in L.A., friends Machine Gun Kelly and Pete Davidson were reunited for a preview screening of The Room at the Intuit Dome. This was the first public appearance that month of Davidson after he received mental health treatment. Davidson wore a red FDNY shirt, casually appearing as he stood alongside friend and frequent collaborator MGK. Their reunion funnily for the fans marked the continuation of the discussion on the value of friendship and support, reminding everyone how positive the message is when you put a spot for mental health in life.
