Cloud Nine & Custom Laces: Kid Cudi Married Lola Abecassis Sartore in French Fairytale
Sparks first flew between Cudi and Sartore in 2018. They connected at the late Virgil Abloh's first show for Louis Vuitton. As Sartore recalled to PEOPLE , 'I was working behind the scenes, and Scott was walking the runway. Our eyes met in the chaos, and there was a silent spark. After the show, Scott walked straight up and asked for my number.'
Over time, their connection blossomed, and after dating for about a year, Cudi proposed on December 28, 2023, in Kyoto, Japan. The couple kept their engagement private for a few months, only announcing it to the world via separate Instagram posts in April 2024, which also served as their official relationship debut to the public.
Their nuptials took place on Saturday, June 28. Sartore described the day as 'the most perfect, flawless, peaceful day, and we want to do it all over again. Looking back, I wouldn't change a thing.' The ceremony was officiated by the couple's minister, Pastor Rich.
The ceremony itself was described by Sartore as 'bliss. A moment out of time where the world stopped, and it was just the two of us… It was just us and our love, and it was the purest moment.' Following the heartfelt vows, guests enjoyed a cocktail hour by the pool, a delightful dinner on the lawn, and an after-party inside the villa, where a restaurant was transformed into a 'cozy' speakeasy.
Fashion was, of course, a major highlight, given Sartore's background as a designer at Louis Vuitton and now as the head designer at ERL. The bride collaborated with her 'bridesman,' Alain Paul, to design her stunning wedding dress. The gown, handmade in Paris, was composed of '60 meters total of six different custom laces.' Paul also crafted a mini version of a runway bridal style for Sartore's after-party look. Cudi himself didn't disappoint, collaborating with Anthony Vaccarello, creative director of Saint Laurent, for three custom outfits for the weekend: an 'elegant' and 'laidback' look for the welcome dinner, a classic double-breasted black suit for the ceremony, and a dazzling crystal embroidered mousseline top for the after-party.
The wedding included heartfelt tributes to Virgil Abloh, who played a significant role in their meeting. Additionally, during cocktail hour, BadBadNotGood performed – a full-circle moment as they had also played at Abloh's first show for Louis Vuitton, where Cudi and Sartore initially met.
Adding a personal touch, Cudi serenaded his new wife with two songs from his upcoming album, which he revealed is 'inspired' by their love story. This grand celebration saw family and friends, including Cudi's daughter Vada from a previous relationship, share in the couple's joy.
After Kid Cudi married Lola, he expressed his overwhelming happiness on Instagram, stating, 'Man, I've been waiting for this moment my whole life. A truly special day with amazing friends and loving family. I love this woman so so much, and I know she loves me in the same way. Its always a battle sayin 'I love you more' because she always wins that battle haha My best friend. My ride or die. To all of the fam that came thru, it was truly a pleasure having you with us on our special day.'

Eddie Palmieri, a champion of Latin jazz, dies at 88
Eddie Palmieri, the Grammy-winning Nuyorican pianist, bandleader and composer who helped innovate Afro-Caribbean music in the States and transform the New York salsa scene, died on Wednesday. He was 88. According to a post on his official Instagram, Palmieri passed away in his Hackensack, N.J., home. The New York Times confirmed via his youngest daughter, Gabriela Palmieri, that his death came after 'an extended illness.' Multiple celebrities chimed in to pay their respects, including Spike Lee, Ramon Rodriguez and representatives from Fania Records, the pioneering New York salsa label, also released a statement. '[On Wednesday], Fania Records mourns the loss of the legendary Eddie Palmieri, one of the most innovative and unique artists in music history,' the statement said. Palmieri briefly recorded music with the label but also released music under Tico, Alegre, Concord Picante, RMM and Coco Records. Others took to social media to mourn the loss, including David Sanchez, a Grammy-winning jazz tenor saxophonist from Puerto Rico, who uploaded a slideshow of photographs of the two. Sanchez recounted the time when his soprano saxophone was stolen — and Palmieri helped him pay for a new one. 'Your being and your music will continue to live on in the hearts of many,' Sanchez wrote in the Instagram caption. Palmieri's contemporary Chuchito Valdes, a Grammy-winning Cuban pianist and bandleader, also chimed in with an Instagram post lamenting the loss: 'A sad day for music. One of the greatest of all time is gone, an innovator. The man who revolutionized salsa and Latin jazz. My great friend.' Born on Dec. 15, 1936, in East Harlem to Puerto Rican parents from Ponce, Palmieri was the younger brother of Charlie Palmieri, the late piano legend known as the 'Giant of the Keyboards.' The family later moved to the South Bronx, where they opened up a luncheonette called 'Mambo': a name chosen by young Eddie, who was enthralled by the Cuban dance hall rhythms. He often controlled the jukebox with blissful Latin jazz tunes by Tito Puente, Tito Rodriguez and Machito. Palmieri was deeply influenced and inspired by his older brother, who was nine years his senior and introduced him to prominent big-band acts of the 1940s, like Tommy Dorsey, Glenn Miller and Woody Herman, all of whom seemed to dissolve by the end of World War II. Though Palmieri had an itch to lean into the timbales like Tito Puente, he would eventually follow in his brother's footsteps and take piano lessons from Margaret Bonds, one of the most prominent African American concert pianists at the time. Although he briefly joined his uncle's orchestra, Chino y sus Almas Tropicales, as a timbal player, Palmieri rose to fame as a pianist, playing with various bands including the Eddie Forrester Orchestra, Johnny Segui and His Orchestra, and eventually Tito Rodriguez and His Orchestra, which was a main act at the Palladium Ballroom between 1958 to 1960. 'In the audience, you could have maybe a Marlon Brando, Kim Novak, all the Hollywood starlets because it was the height of the mambo,' said Palmieri in a 2013 interview with Jo Reed. 'On Saturday, you had the blue-collar, mostly Puerto Rican. And then Sunday was black, Afro-American. It was intermingled or different nationalities that had nothing to do whether you were green, purple, white, we came to dance.' But in 1961, Palmieri went on to start his own band, La Perfecta, an ironic title given its not-so-perfect setup. It formed as an eight-piece Cuban conjunto, which ditched the traditional jazzy saxophone. There were timbales, congas, bongos, bass, piano and vocals — but with a twist of its own kind: the inclusion of two trombones, played by Barry Rogers and Jose Rodriguez, instead of the costly four-set trumpets. Palmieri also added a whistling flute, played by George Castro, for a charanga edge (in the place of a traditional violin). 'La Perfecta changed everything in the history of our genre, in my opinion. Certainly in New York,' said Palmieri. 'And then influenced the world, because after that all the pawn shops got rid of their trombones.' His group helped usher in the iconic salsa genre with their first album, 'Eddie Palmieri and His Conjunto 'La Perfecta,'' dubbing him the nickname 'Madman of salsa.' However, he was not too fond of the emerging term, which seemed to cram different styles like mambo, charanga, rumba, guaracha and danzón into one single category. 'Afro-Cuban is where we get the music,' explained Palmieri in a 2012 interview with the Smithsonian Oral History Project. 'The influence of the Puerto Rican is the one [that] upheld the rhythmical patterns and the genre of Cuba. So then that becomes Afro-Caribbean.' La Perfecta went on to release its most famed album, 'Azúcar Pa' Ti' in 1965. It included the song 'Azúcar,' an eight-minute track that was later added to the National Recording Registry in 2009. In 1976, Palmieri became the first to win a Grammy for the inaugural category of best Latin recording, for his album 'Sun of Latin Music.' He holds a total of eight Grammy awards. In 2013, the National Endowment for the Arts honored him as a Jazz Master and the Latin Grammys granted him a Lifetime Achievement Award. But Eddie Palmieri's impact spanned beyond his own accomplishments. He was a mentor, a teacher and an advocate for Latin music and culture, which includes advocating twice for the inclusion of the Latin jazz album category in the Grammys — first in 1995, then again in 2012 after its removal. Palmieri was predeceased by his wife of 58 years, Iraida Palmieri, who passed away in 2014 — and who he often referred to as 'Mi Luz Mayor.' He is survived by his four daughters, Renee, Eydie, Ileana and Gabriela; his son, Edward Palmieri II; and four grandchildren.

Kristine Frøseth and Guy Remmers' Relationship Timeline
For everyone still reeling over the season 2 finale of The Buccaneers, I've got more !!! news for you: actors Kristine Frøseth and Guy Remmers (aka Nan St. George and Theo, the Duke of Tintagel) are actually a couple in real life. The two began dating all the way back in 2022 after meeting on the set of the Apple TV+ series, and as far as I know, the couple is still going strong. Of course, their romance is so low-key that you may not have even realized it was happening. For that reason, I present to you a handy timeline of how Kristine and Guy (not to be confused with Guy Thwarte, Nan's other love interest on The Buccaneers) first got together and where they stand now. Principal photography for the first season of The Buccaneers begins in Madrid, which is presumably where Kristine and Guy first cross paths. (Later, during an interview with Tatler, Guy confirms that he and Kristine met on set.) Kristine takes to her Instagram Stories to share an intimate-looking pic of herself and someone who looks like Guy cuddling on a beach, which has fans like 😱. The Buccaneers season 1 premieres, and the following month at a photocall, Kristine and Guy smitten, no? (Sry to Matthew Broome.) The costars attend the Simone Rocha show during London Fashion Week together, which has fans wondering, 'Um, are these two an item??' And not long after, they're spotted at the JW Anderson show! And then, to clear up any remaining doubt, they share cute pics of each other on their IG Stories in honor of Valentine's Day. During an interview with People, Kristine shares how she tried (and failed) to throw a surprise birthday for her boyfriend (!!) Guy. 'I was trying to host a surprise birthday party for the first time in my life,' she explains. 'And I organized everything and everyone was coming. But that weekend, the schedule changed and so everyone went home. So it was basically just me and my boyfriend, unfortunately. I'm still having to try and make up for it.' In his interview with Tatler, Guy opens up about his girlfriend (!!), saying 'her energy' is his favorite thing about her. 'We both love to dance,' he says. 'Kay, that's basically all I know, but here's hoping we get more details about this 'ship (and the fate of season 3) soon!!

Edits Gets Streamlined Script Creation and Louder Audio Options
This story was originally published on Social Media Today. To receive daily news and insights, subscribe to our free daily Social Media Today newsletter. Instagram has announced the latest round of updates for its Edits video editing app, with three new features designed to help you put together more creative, engaging video clips. First off, Edits is making it easier to transfer your content ideas into a script, with 'Stickies-to-Teleprompter' conversion, via a simple drop-down command. As you can see in this sequence, now, you'll be able to put down your video script in a sticky note, then transfer that directly to the in-built teleprompter function (which it added a few weeks back). You'll then see your script layered over your recording screen in the app, making it easier to translate your concepts. It's a handy option, which doesn't add a heap in terms of functionality (as you could already use the teleprompter tool), but will save you from having to put your script together in Notes or similar. Edits is also getting a new option to share unpublished drafts direct from the editor, so you can get feedback on your in-progress creations. As you can see in these screens, you'll now be able to send an example of your project, along with a message, via your Instagram DMs. Finally, you can now boost the sound of your clips up to 150%. Why would you want that? I mean, I can't imagine a heap of viewers are super keen to have some blaring, distorted audio. But Instagram says that this has been a highly requested feature, and it could enable alternate effects and approaches that align with modern trends. The Edits team has stayed true to its word in adding features to the app, with more functions and options coming to the app weekly, providing more ways to customize and maximize your Reels clips. And it's definitely becoming a must-have video editing option, which all social media creators should be considering. You can download Edits here. Sign in to access your portfolio
