AnneV & Marisol Thomas for La DoubleJ x (RED)
On the solidarity of sisterhood she shares, 'The collection is not only bright, beautifully made and supports the fight, it has also been pivotal in bringing together so many influential women to show solidarity and support for this critical fight, which is exactly the kind of heat and energy this work needs right now.'
Micaela Erlanger & Mychal-Bella Bowman for La DoubleJ x (RED)
Lotito continues to witness the challenges first hand from withdrawals of funding to gender inequalities and discrimination, 'I have just returned from Kenya where I met many of those on the front lines: doctors, nurses, community outreach workers, and the story was the same in every place - 'these cuts will kill us.' It's a travesty, and it galvanizes the work (RED) does,' she says.
'It also underlines the gratitude we have for La DoubleJ, and other fashion partners including Savas, Nomasei, AHLEM and Roxanne Assoulin, for stepping-up and stepping-out in support. We love seeing fashion serve as a cultural force to drive change,' proving that fashion can stand for something greater.

Damson Idris Says Street Driving Is Boring Now That's He's Experienced a Formula One Car

Damson Idris is a serious actor, best known for his work in Snowfall and British films like Farming. But get him talking about cars and racing and Idris can't stop smiling… and he's especially exuberant when he's talking about his experiences making F1, in which he co-stars with Brad Pitt. Apple Original Films | Apple In the big-budget blockbuster, directed by Joseph Kosinski (Top Gun: Maverick), Idris plays an up-and-coming racer Noah Pearce, who is mentored by and clashes with an aging star named Sonny Hayes, played by Brad Pitt. The movie, which opens on June 27 features appearances by top F1 drivers including Lewis Hamilton, Max Verstappen, George Russell, Charles Leclerc, and Carlos Saenz. While those elite drivers lent verisimilitude, Idris and Pitt did their own driving as Idris discussed in a recent video conversation. What drew you to this movie? I've been a fan of Brad my whole career, and Joe's work on Top Gun Maverick made this a no-brainer. But the biggest thing for me was I knew that we were going to be filming at the real Grand Prix races. So it was like a sneaky way for me to get free tickets to every Grand Prix.

Review: He's Here, He's Queer, He's the Future King of England

In 2032, a young man called Tips brings his boyfriend, Dev, home from college to meet the folks. Though cautious, Mum and Dad are neither surprised nor scandalized; after all, he's 18, and they have known he was gay for a while. For the characters in Jordan Tannahill's 'Prince Faggot,' though, that gayness was long since a given. Early in the play, we are shown a famous picture of Tips at 4, looking adorable and, to them, arguably fey. Tips is better known to the world as Prince George of Wales, the oldest child of Prince William and Princess Catherine. The real Prince George is now 11. For that reason, I will hereafter refer to the character by his nickname. I am one of those who, as the play anticipates, resist the dragooning of a preadolescent boy into a dramatic argument about sexuality and monarchy — just as I cringe at the use of a slur I take no reclaimed pride in to market a title. If the playwright means to shock, mission accomplished. But here's the real shocker: The play, which opened Tuesday at Playwrights Horizons, in a co-production with Soho Rep, is thrilling. Inflammatory, nose-thumbing, explicit to the point of pornography, wild and undisciplined (except in its bondage scenes) — yes, all that. Its arguments have so many holes in them, most hold water only briefly. Grievance is its top note: Tips is a whiner and Dev a theory queen. Love is everything and never enough. In other words, however objectionably conjectural, it's real. Tannahill tries to sideline reality quickly though. In a throat-clearing prologue, he has the six actors (all exceptionally good in multiple roles) debate the propriety of telling the story in the first place. One (Mihir Kumar) argues that since 'all children are 'sexualized' as heterosexual by default,' exploring a different framing is a kind of reparation. Another (K. Todd Freeman) retorts that to portray an actual child as queer is to invite a charge of grooming. A third (David Greenspan) adds wickedly, 'Frankly, I think we've been doing a terrible job at grooming. I mean look at how many straights there still are.' Want all of The Times? Subscribe.
