Celebs love Nike sneakers — shop styles worn by J.Lo, Jennifer Aniston and more

Yahoo23-04-2025
When the weather gets warm, folks inevitably head outdoors to soak up the sun. Sure, sandals are the shoe of choice for many during the summer months, but if you're racking up lots of steps, comfortable, supportive sneakers are the way to go. Whether you're planning a trip that will include exploring a new city or you just want to be more active in your own neighborhood this season, investing in a well-made, durable pair of kicks is a good idea. And if those athletic shoes happen to have a celeb's stamp of approval? Even better. Nike has countless famous fans. A-listers like Jennifer Aniston, Blake Lively and Jennifer Lopez have all been worn the brand's designs, and it's no surprise why. Nike has styles for every activity, from hardcore workouts to leisurely strolls.
Not sure which pair of Nikes are perfect for you? Check out the picks your favorite celebs wear below, and snag a pair for yourself to live in this spring, summer and beyond.
Kendall Jenner was just one of the many "It" girls who couldn't stop wearing these kicks back in 2020. The design has been around for more than 40s years, but they've experienced a real renaissance recently. The all-white design is a classic that never goes out of style and looks good with everything from dresses and skirts to jeans and leggings.
Katie Holmes has come a long way since her girl-next-door days on Dawson's Creek. Now, she's a fashion trendsetter who sits front row at runway shows and is a darling of designers like Brandon Maxwell. Earlier this month, she was snapped wearing the highly coveted Nike + Bode trainers. The white pair is already sold out, but you can still snag the black.
Way back in 2017, Jennifer Aniston was snapped sporting the Nike Air Zoom Pegasus 33 sneakers after working out. Since then, the brand has updated the best-selling sneaker — we're at style 41 now! — and they've only gotten better. The design features responsive cushioning and increased breathability.
Jennifer Lopez wore these kicks during a pre-tour dance rehearsal, so you can pretty much guarantee they'll be comfy enough for you to walk around in. Nike Dunks are a timeless fave of sneakerheads, who collect them in different colors and appreciate the cool look and supportive fit.
Blake Lively is among the many fans who wear Nike Air Max sneakers for working out or just hanging out. We first noticed her wearing them back in 2021. And then in 2023, she shared a split-screen pic on Instagram wearing the shopper fave in two different colors. Safe to say, she really likes these sneakers.
We reported that lots of stylish folks in N.Y.C. are wearing this sneaker right now, so it makes sense that Jennifer Lawrence is among them. She was photographed rocking the of-the-moment style in black and gray earlier this month while walking around the Big Apple.
The fashion world took a collective gasp when model Bella Hadid was spotted wearing an unreleased pair of Nike Blazers designed in collaboration with Virgil Abloh of Off-White back in 2017. The sneakers were eventually made available to the general public, but quickly (and unsurprisingly sold out). These day, the limited-edition kicks are selling for thousands of dollars on resale sites.
Just a few weeks ago, Anne Hathaway wore another pair of limited-edition Nikes, which Vogue Arabia described as "very difficult to get." They're known as the Off-White x Nike Air Max 97 Elemental Rose, and cost a cool $820 at StockX. Don't have that kind of cash just hanging around? Consider the non-designer version of the beloved Air Max 97, which may be slightly less "cool," but are just as comfortable.
The reviews quoted above reflect the most recent versions at the time of publication.

Tamar Braxton says she 'almost died' after being 'found in a pool of blood'

Tamar Braxton says she experienced a medical emergency that has left her shaken and recovering from serious injuries that include the loss of her teeth and a broken nose. In an Aug. 19 post shared to her Instagram story, the 'Love and War' singer and television personality shared that she 'almost died' this week after a friend discovered her in a pool of her own blood. The 48-year-old detailed her health scare in a message written over a gradient-colored background. 'I struggled to write this but everyone keeps calling me and honestly, I can't even really talk anymore. I'm so weak,' her message begins. 'I almost died Sunday. I was found in a pool of blood from my friend with a face injury. As the days go by, the worse it is.' While the singer did not share further details regarding what caused her physical injuries, she did open up about the emotional toll it has taken. The extent of her injuries, which included a fractured nose, the loss of 'some teeth' and mobility issues, has also affected her outlook. 'The way I look at life now is totally different.' Despite the severity of the event, Braxton says her health is steadily improving. 'As my health is on the mend, my mental journey begins,' she continued. 'Pray for me for real. I don't even know what happened to me.' Braxton has been open about her health history in the past. In 2021, she shared an update after she was hospitalized after she was found unresponsive. 'In this present moment, it is my only responsibility to be real with myself and to be real with the ones who truly love me and care for my healing,' she wrote in a since-deleted Instagram. 'I have without fail, shared with you my brightest days, and I know that sharing with you what has been my darkest will be the light for any man or woman who is feeling the same defeat I felt just only a week ago.'

Gay influencer couple Probably This broke up. The response is alarming at best.

Are we, as a society, OK when relationships ending on any sort of stage sends ripples across tens of thousands of people eager to engage in an algorithmic bloodletting? If you've spent any amount of time on the internet, you've probably heard this one before: Internet couple attracts an audience. Internet couple breaks up. Former internet couple's followers try to figure out who gets custody in the split. There's several somethings to be said about living your relationships Extremely Online in an attention economy, and they mostly boil down to this: Influencers are not your #RelationshipGoals. We were reminded of that again recently. On Aug. 16, influencers Probably This – a couple comprising Matt Armato (bald) and Beau Ciolino (not bald) – published a now-deleted video announcing they broke up after 12 years. I found their Instagram account in the depths of my 2020 pandemic doomscrolling and clicked the follow button for their design, renovation and decoration of a charming New Orleans home. Five years later, they've called it quits, but cited an enduring mutual respect and care for each other as they move on. (Armato got the Probably This TikTok account and Ciolino got the Instagram.) From one bald gay to another (though, I promise, not exclusively because of that), I empathize with Armato, whose clear discomfort was the impetus for the audience to scathingly pick Ciolino apart. Accusations of cheating, assumptions about open relationships and critiques of their differing demeanors (Ciolino seemed bubbly in a nervous way; Armato appeared quietly devastated) filled the comment sections of the now-deleted video. The discourse is discoursing, which prompted Armato to post a story highlight to his Instagram page. 'I know the video has sparked a lot of reactions,' Armato writes. 'Please know that there are no teams here. I see your compassion and I appreciate it, but if your support for me looks like tearing him down I don't want it.' People break up. The internet has changed what that looks like. People break up. Everyone does that. But the internet has changed our relationship with how relationships conclude, and it leaves us all spinning through the vacuum where there should be space, peace and processing. Because Armato and Ciolino made a living, at least on some level, by putting their relationship online and commodifying their personal lives, they felt they owed it to their audiences to explain their separation. I'm not part of their relationship, and I don't pretend to be an expert on either one of them. I've followed their content casually at best. But like Facebook rolling out legacy pages for dead users, we're still in the nascent stages of an internet that continues to redefine itself and the relationships around us. As a result, we're not thinking about what happens when a relationship publicly implodes, and our mileage in the aftermath may vary. In this case, we've gone from tablescapes to tribunals. I live for the mess. But we're not entitled to any of it. Admittedly, I live for it. I also desperately need us all to collectively march out our front doors and touch the nearest patch of grass. Perhaps it's that when gay audiences see gay people in relationships, they receive outsize attention and parasocial projections both on the relationship as a concept and also the individuals within them because of the representation the community sees from them – especially considering the historic lack of representation we've felt in spaces that were not ours to create. But, gay people set conveniently aside, the thematic thread in any kind of online relationship is that we're buying what they're selling in an economy predicated on attention. That comes with the highs and, for the more patient among us, the perceived ultimate low: the breakup that unfolds just as much online as the relationship did. Everyone loves a messy fight – at least, at my messiest, I'd water the sidewalk if it meant I could be nosy about an argument down the street – so social media is an ideal front porch to eavesdrop in real time as people and relationships unravel. Still, our parasocial relationships with these couples threaten to (and often do) shift our role as passive observers into active participants. We're not just watching and liking. We're commenting and taking sides in a void of context. Our currency becomes zingy reads and memetic reaction images and backhanded messages of support for one person or the other. That can't be healthy for any of us. Not for an audience that misunderstands our place in a relationship that has invited us in as casual observers. Not for a couple or content creator navigating a difficult space that sees their comment section revolting against the absence of a relationship that doesn't exist anymore. And not for the people somewhere in between, navigating a spew of videos by and about couples who aren't together anymore. What do influencers actually owe you? It's easy to wave this off as a piece of non-reality – it's not real and can't hurt us – but as our younger generations continue to experience higher levels of isolation, the internet grows as a bastion of community and connections, and thus the real-world impacts become more undeniable. The internet is real and it can hurt you. Perhaps there's some schadenfreude there in getting to see the walls crumble down and reality peek through. Real relationships and real people are deeply complicated, take a metric ton of work and you are not promised your idea of success. Seeing that stripped away thrills us because it's a reminder that the influencers who dupe us into buying their display of perfection are not all they pretend to be. It's fine to admire what you aspire for. It's good, even, to identify and appreciate that you have representation. But also accept that you are only getting the version of the story influencers choose for you. This is an attention economy, and they benefit from obfuscating the truth. It should not stop us from pursuing our own and living our lives defined by our own rules. The reality is that we never should've been idolizing relationships like Probably This – or the people who actually live them – to begin with. Otherwise, we're living in a digital panopticon of our own making. Did that former influencer couple ever really owe anyone the truth? And are we, as a society, OK when relationships ending on any sort of stage sends ripples across tens of thousands of people eager to engage in an algorithmic bloodletting? Probably not.
