Christina Aguilera has partnered with Grindr for a first-of-its-kind activation, ahead of her headlining performance at San Francisco’s Portola Festival. From September 15–22, Grindr swapped its signature “bloop” notification for Aguilera’s Grammy-winning hit Come On Over Baby (All I Want Is You), making the app itself part of the fan experience.

Aguilera promoted the campaign across her Instagram, where she boasts over 10 million followers and steady growth (see attached chart). This rising digital presence is significant, as she continues to re-engage festival audiences and Gen Z listeners through live events and unexpected brand tie-ins.

Doja Cat named MAC Cosmetics’ new global ambassador. The move arrives amid a vintage VMAs-style entrance—she appeared to take a bite out of her signature “Lady Danger” lipstick on the red carpet (the bullet was actually a chocolate replica) to announce the partnership in bold fashion.

Tom Holland is stepping off the set and into play mode as LEGO’s newest ambassador, fronting the Never Stop Playing short film and joining the toy brand’s ongoing Rebuild the World 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.

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.
