The fashion-to-Formula-1 pipeline should truly be studied. Over the last few years, the racing crowd has shifted from camo hat-wearing dads to fashion girlies with a capital F.
At the moment, stars like Kylie Jenner, Hailey Bieber, and Winnie Harlow are all down south, attending the 2025 Miami Grand Prix. And though Dua Lipa likely isn't one of them (she was photographed in New York City earlier this week, ahead of the Met Gala), she's steady sporting the racing aesthetic.
Lipa is currently in the midst of a full-fledged Gucci kick. She stepped out wearing the brand's crystal-embellished, mesh sling-backs on Tuesday, before posting another Gucci-forward look to the grid. The former was corporate sleaze cosplay, but the latter is straight off of the racetrack.
In honor of F1's weekend event, the pop star reprised one of the sportiest styles in her repertoire. She dusted off her trusty Gucci racing jacket, which features black and yellow color blocking and dual tiger heads embroidered onto its front. Similar to her other Gucci 'fit, Lipa styled it with a white tee and button-down, with loose-fit black pants.
Though most of the pop star's look stuck to the racing theme, her choice footwear was inspired by a different sport entirely: dance. She left her trusty Puma ballet sneakers at home and slipped on a pair of $1,090 square-toed Gucci pointe shoes. In addition to their authentic shape, the ballerina flats were also fitted with multiple straps, a leather bow, and the brand's signature horsebit hardware, for added edge.

Though she might not be the first celeb who comes to mind when you think of Formula 1, Lipa is a longtime fan. She performed at the Singapore Grand Prix in 2018 and, since then, racing jackets have become one of her favorite outerwear trends. Today, she owns a full-fledged collection of leather jackets in varying color combinations.
In the last year alone, she's made the look her signature, throwing them on for every possible occasion—from date night with her fiancé Callum Turner to award show after-parties, like the 2024 Brit Awards where she wore this burgundy style.
Whether or not she'll make an appearance at this weekend's races is yet to be seen. But even from half-way across the country, Lipa is still Formula 1's best-dressed fan.

Evan Agostini/Invision/AP 'I remember three days before I met C, I remember being at church with Pastor Judah [Smith] and I was talking to him and he said something in a sermon. He said non-negotiables … I said, 'I'm going to write my five non-negotiables down,'' Wilson said. 'The first one was, I want a woman of great faith. She's got just great faith. She's a believer. That was important to me because believing in Jesus, all that meant a lot to me. That's No. 1 thing. 'No. 2 was I want a woman who was faithful, not just to me but to everything that she does to anything and everything that she does,' Wilson continued. 'The third thing is I want a woman that was going to love me the way my mom loved my dad. Just how my mom, my dad was on his deathbed. Just like she was willing to do anything and everything for us and for him. I think that you want a woman that's got grit and that's going to be there when it's thick, when it's tough, when it's hard and things aren't going well, whatever it may be in life when my dad has leg amputated or whatever it may be. 7 Wilson and Ciara at Game 2 of Knicks-Pacers.

Didn't want to just be Russell's wife, but just had their own identity of what they wanted to be and create and do in life. 'I think the last thing was I wanted a woman who would tilt the room when they walked in the room, all the furniture slides her way. You know what I mean? Everything slides her way.

Netflix adds Steven Spielberg's first big-screen movie — and no it's not Jaws
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Fifty years ago, Steven Spielberg made a movie that quickly solidified him as one of the preeminent directors in all of Hollywood, Jaws. While that movie is undoubtedly Spielberg's breakthrough picture, it was not his first time that audiences got to see a Spielberg movie on the big screen. That distinction goes to 1974's The Sugarland Express, which is a new addition to Netflix as of May 1, and one of my picks for new movies to stream in May. The Sugarland Express stars Goldie Hawn as a woman who attempts to reunite her family, but to do so involves breaking her husband out of jail and then kidnapping their young son from the foster family looking after him. However, things quickly go awry, including kidnapping a police officer, and they are soon pursued across the state. William Atherton, Ben Johnson and Michael Sacks star in the movie, which was written by Hal Barwood and Matthew Robbins, based on a true story. Often overlooked in Spielberg's filmography, The Sugarland Express is a fascinating entry from the director who would become known for some of the biggest movies in Hollywood history. Incredibly, Spielberg was just 26-years-old at the time the movie was released and still he earned praise, particularly from one of the most notable critics of the time, Pauline Kael, who called the movie 'one of the most phenomenal debut films in the history of movies' in The New Yorker; even detractors at the time called Spielberg a 'skillful' technician. Personally, The Sugarland Express reminds me of the Hollywood B-movies of the 1960s and early 1970s, often made by Roger Corman; particularly the fact that it is a road picture crime movie with plenty of car crashes. It's an entertaining movie, but I won't go so far to say we need to reevaluate it as a forgotten Spielberg masterpiece. But any fans of Spielberg should watch it to check off his complete filmography. Another reason that The Sugarland Express is a notable movie is that it actually is the first time that Spielberg and composer John Williams worked together. While Spielberg was an upstart at the time, Williams was already an Oscar-winning composer coming off a recent string of movies that included Fiddler on the Roof (his first Oscar win) and The Poseidon Adventure. But it didn't take long for Williams to recognize the talent and passion that Spielberg brought to the table. In an interview on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert back in 2022, Williams detailed the lunch meeting that was arranged for him and Spielberg ahead of The Sugarland Express, where Williams said after overcoming the initial surprise of Spielberg's youth he 'I realized this was somebody very, very special.' Though Williams' blues-tinged score for The Sugarland Express would not be nominated for an Oscar, it was the start of a collaboration that has yielded some of the greatest movie scores of all time (Jaws, Raiders of the Lost Ark, E.T., Jurassic Park, Schindler's List and more). Netflix subscribers can now watch The Sugarland Express on the streaming service; if you're not a Netflix subscriber the movie is available via digital on-demand.

Timothee Chalamet brings Kylie Jenner back to MSG for Knicks' must-win game
Timothée Chalamet is back at Madison Square Garden, and so is equally famous girlfriend. The Hollywood A-lister and Knicks superfan arrived with Kylie Jenner as the Knicks try to keep their season alive, trailing 3-1 to the Pacers in the best-of-seven series. Advertisement The pair entered the arena floor hand in hand as they walked to their seats, while Jenner donned black pants and an orange jacket. Chalamet was wearing dark colored jeans with blue and orange insignias on them, along with a blue and orange jacket for Thursday's must-win Game 5. He showed off his outfit in a series of snapshots on his Instagram Story. The couple sat alongside fellow actor and Knicks diehard Ben Stiller — and actor Miles Teller and his wife Keleigh Teller. Timothee Chalamet and Kylie Jenner arrive at MSG for Game 5 of the Eastern Conference finals on May 29, 2025. NY Post Sports/X The actor has been a mainstay throughout the Knicks' playoff run this season, sitting courtside at the Garden and on the road — having taken the trip to Indiana for Games 3 and 4.

Kylie Jenner shows her support for the Knicks earlier this season. KylieJenner/Instagram Jenner and Chalamet have been dating since 2023 and only recently made their debut on the red carpet as a couple during the 70th David di Donatello ceremony in Rome on May 7. Chalamet is a New York native with a long history of Knicks fandom and has shown off his sports chops in appearances on 'College Game Day' on ESPN and on Theo Von's podcast.
