What to Wear to Summer's Biggest Concerts
Summer is finally here! And while the season promises plenty of gloriously sunny days spent at the park or beach, it's the upcoming tours that have us especially excited.
Many of the music world's biggest stars are going on the road over the next few months—and some A-list acts have already kicked off their shows. Beyoncé, for one, has been bringing her stellar Americana-meets-western style to the stage with the ongoing Cowboy Carter Tour. Other performers to look forward to this summer? Notable names like Lady Gaga, Kendrick Lamar and SZA, Olivia Rodrigo, Blackpink, and many more. (Start saving those coins for tickets!)
Half the fun of attending a concert, though, is finding the perfect outfit to wear to a show. You simply can't attend Gaga's Mayhem Ball without an edgy, Mother Monster-worthy look. If the thematic fashions have you stressed, fear not: Vogue is rounding up the best summer tours, and what to wear to them. Consider it one less thing you have to stress about—so that you can focus entirely on scream-singing to your favorite songs the night of.
Below, see this summer's biggest tours—and what to wear to them.
Beyoncé's Cowboy Carter Tour
The vibe: Elevated country-western style. Think: Lots of fringe, denim, and leather. For a modern take on the look, consider a fringed jacket with your summer cut-offs, and punctuate it with your go-to cowboy boots and brimmed hat.

Lady Gaga's Mayhem Ball
The vibe: Edgy, Mother Monster-worthy fashions in moody shades of red and black. For some Gaga-inspired styling, consider wearing a black slip dress over leather pants or leggings. Look for accessories such as a chunky combat boot and pearl detailing. Abra-cada-bra!
Billie Eilish's Hit Me Hard and Soft Tour
The vibe: Baggy, menswear-inspired fits with sporty accents. Billie has that expert ability to pull off extremely oversized clothing—and you can too, with a snazzy button-up shirt and basketball shorts. Don't forget a tie and a pair of customary Air Jordans.
Kendrick Lamar and SZA's Grand National Tour
The vibe: Y2K grunge—but in a cool, modern way. We are still thinking about how Kendrick brought back bellbottoms at the Super Bowl, so why not channel the rapper on his tour with a dark-wash pair? A cozy flannel, tinted shades, and sporty low-tops will round out the look with ease.
Blackpink's World Tour
The vibe: Cutesy girl group style that is ready for an intense dance routine. A lace camisole, pleated school girl skirt, and edgy moto boots will have you looking like you belong on stage with Lisa, Rosé, Jennie, and Jisoo. Blackpink in your area!
Olivia Rodrigo's Guts Tour
The vibe: '90s grunge meets glamour. There is no garment more on-point for an Olivia Rodrigo show than a classic bodycon dress—her signature piece, of course. Paired with Dr. Martens, a choker, and cutesy heart bag? Siri, cue up 'Driver's License.'

Rogan claims 2 former presidents called Spotify over his controversial COVID commentary
Podcaster Joe Rogan claimed Tuesday that two unnamed former presidents were involved in the protest against his skeptical discussions about COVID-19. Spotify received backlash in 2022 for allowing Rogan, one of its biggest stars, to spread what progressive critics claimed was COVID misinformation. Musician Neil Young famously removed his content from Spotify in protest over Rogan's rhetoric, saying he no longer wanted to share a platform with him. "And then all of a sudden, I hear that Neil Young wants me removed from Spotify. I was like, 'What the f--- is going on? This is crazy,'" Rogan said Tuesday. "Spotify got calls from two former presidents," he added. Then-Biden White House press secretary Jen Psaki commented on the controversy directly. After Spotify announced it would flag podcasts that cover COVID-19, Psaki responded, "So this disclaimer, it's a positive step, but we want every platform to continue doing more to call out misinformation while also uplifting accurate information." "Our hope is that all major tech platforms — and all major news sources for that matter — be responsible and be vigilant to ensure the American people have access to accurate information on something as significant as COVID-19," she added. But Rogan said that instead of being censored or deplatformed, "I grew by 2 million subscribers in a month." "People started listening," he said, despite how his critics attacked his reputation. "And they started listening, like, 'Oh, he's really reasonable and pretty humble about all this stuff and just asking questions.'" Rogan also condemned how media outlets attacked his use of Ivermectin to treat his COVID-19 by referring to it as a horse dewormer. "I'm, like, 'Why aren't you guys concentrating on the fact that a 55-year-old man is fine three days later during the worst strain?' It was during the Delta where everybody's freaking out. 'This one's going to kill us all.' And I was fine in three days," he said. Rogan described the whole experience as a "wake-up call" that opened his eyes about the liberal legacy media. "It's so dirty. It's such a dirty business," Rogan said. "God, I used to have massive respect for journalists. If I had never done this podcast, I would be your regular schmo out there with, you know, just spitting out all the company lines and all the blast all over the news." "I kind of liked it better then," he said with a laugh. "I didn't think the world is filled with demons, money-hungry demons that are willing to sacrifice human lives in the pursuit of revenue." Spotify founder and CEO Daniel Ek addressed the pushback against hosting Rogan during the company's earnings call in February 2022. "I think the important part here is that we don't change our policies based on one creator, nor do we change it based on any media cycle," the chief executive said at the time. "Our policies have been carefully written with the input from numbers of internal and external experts in this space – and I do believe they're right for our platform." Fox News Digital reached out to Spotify for comment and did not receive an immediate reply.

How the Beach Boys' ‘Pet Sounds' Entered the Pop Music Pantheon. (Eventually.)
Making a list of the best rock albums ever is easy: Something old (the Beatles), something new or newer (perhaps Radiohead), something borrowed (the Rolling Stones' blues or disco pastiches) and Joni Mitchell's 'Blue.' And, of course, bursting into the top 10 — and often higher — of any respectable list: 'Pet Sounds.' The overwhelming brainchild of Brian Wilson, the Beach Boys' chief songwriter whose death at 82 was announced on Wednesday, 'Pet Sounds' is beautiful — with gorgeous vocal harmonies, haunting timbres and wistful lyrics of adolescent longing and estrangement. It was a landmark in studio experimentation that changed the idea of how albums could be made. But one thing that stands out about the Beach Boys' masterpiece is how gradually it came to be widely celebrated, compared with many of its peers. 'When it was released in the United States,' said Jan Butler, a senior lecturer in popular music at Oxford Brookes University in the United Kingdom, 'it did pretty well, but for the Beach Boys, it was considered a flop.' Released in the spring of 1966, 'Pet Sounds' represented a break from the catchy tunes about surfing, cars and girls that the group had consistently rode to the top of the charts. The opening track is called 'Wouldn't It Be Nice,' but previous Beach Boys songs had described how nice it was. The album peaked at No. 10 — low for one of the most popular acts at the time — and was the first Beach Boys album in three years not to reach gold status, Butler wrote in a chapter of an academic book. The Beach Boys' record company, Capitol, rushed out a greatest-hits that outsold the album of original music. Want all of The Times? Subscribe.

Blue Moon is getting into the lip balm business
In an unusual pairing, beer maker Blue Moon and personal care product company eos have teamed up to create a new orange-flavored lip balm. The Valencia Orange Lip Balm debuted Tuesday and is available exclusively on Blue Moon and eos' websites. It comes in a round shell typical of eos' style but with a twist: A small Blue Moon label is printed on the orange casing. In the online description of the product, the companies say the lip balm was designed to enhance the flavor of Blue Moon beer, a Belgian-style wheat beer known for its citrusy flavor. "This limited-edition balm doesn't just resemble a Valencia orange, it delivers the same refreshing, juicy taste," Blue Moon and eos said in a statement. While the product does not contain any alcohol, the companies say it is intended for an audience 21 and older. The balm retails for $4.99 and is available while supplies last, according to the companies' statement. Blue Moon is owned by Molson Coors Beverage Company, whose beer brands include Coors, Coors Light, Miller High Life and Miller Lite. "Through this unexpected partnership with eos, we're giving fans a whole new way to enjoy that iconic citrus taste," Courtney Benedict, vice president of marketing at the Molson Coors, said in a statement.
