Work From BYU AdLab for Crayola Captures Best of Show in the Student Competition
WASHINGTON, June 7, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — A campaign from Goodby Silverstein & Partners for Cheetos ('The Other Hand') was named 'Best of Show' at the 2025 American Advertising Awards, sponsored by AAF. The winner was announced at a Gala Awards Ceremony as part of AAF's ADMERICA annual conference held in Pittsburgh, PA. The event was hosted by Nina Parker, the Emmy-nominated television personality. Work from BYU AdLab for Crayola ('Ink Up, Wash Out') was named 'Best of Show' winner in the Student portion of the competition.
The American Advertising Awards are widely acknowledged as the largest and most representative competition of its kind. Campaigns need to advance through both local and regional levels of the three-tier competition before they can become eligible for the national prize. In all, just 51 Gold ADDYs were awarded among Professionals.
'Competition in the ADDYs gives us a chance to see how we stack up against the best in the business,' said Chris Beresford-Hill, Worldwide Chief Creative Officer at BBDO who served as the first-ever Competition Chair for this Year's American Advertising Awards. 'It's exciting to measure our work against the industry's top talents and learn from what others are doing. It pushes us all to elevate our game.' He added, 'I'm thrilled to see so much exceptional work being recognized through the ADDYs. Celebrating these achievements not only highlights our creativity but also reinforces the impact of effective advertising on our clients' success.'
'The Other Hand' campaign notes how '99% of people eat Cheetos with their dominant hand. Using your other hand? It's a Cheetos thing.' It's the second time in the past three years that work for Cheetos from Goodby Silverstein & Partners has taken home 'Best of Show.'
In addition to the overall 'Bests of Show,' other notable campaigns recognized at this year's American Advertising Awards included:
Special Judges Awards were presented to Rise and Shine & Partners for 'Supercuts Real Dumb Coupon' for Regis Corporation; Goodby Silverstein & Partners for 'Ask Dali' for the Dali Museum; and BBDO Worldwide for 'Tail Orchestra' for Pedigree

Compulsory For Employment Contracts To Be Stamped Effective Next Year
PUTRAJAYA, June 6 (Bernama) -- The Inland Revenue Board (IRB) has announced that all employment contracts between employers and employees must be stamped starting January 1, 2026. This directive is in line with the phased implementation of the Stamp Duty Self-Assessment System (STSDS) as outlined in the 2025 Budget. In a statement today, the IRB said it has already begun comprehensive stamp duty audit activities nationwide since January this year, following the issuance of the Stamp Duty Audit Framework (RKADS). "Through the audit activities and compliance operations, one of the key findings has been that many employment contract documents between employers and employees have not been stamped as required under Item 4, First Schedule of the Stamp Act 1949, where the stamp duty is set at RM10," according to the statement. It said to ease the burden on employers, the Ministry of Finance has agreed to exempt employment contracts executed before January 1, 2025, from stamp duty obligations. This requirement is enforced based on the powers granted to the Minister of Finance under subsection 80(1A) of the Stamp Act 1949 and the authority to remit late stamping penalties provided to the Collector of Stamp Duty under subsection 47A(2) of the Stamp Act 1949. In addition, employment contracts finalised from January 1, 2025, to December 31, 2025, will be subject to stamp duty. However, a remission of late stamping penalties will be granted, provided that the employment contracts are stamped on or before December 31, 2025. This relief is exercised under the powers of the Collector of Stamp Duty under subsection 47A(2) of the Stamp Act 1949. According to the IRB, starting January 1, 2026, employment contracts finalised from that date onwards will be subject to stamp duty, and any delays in stamping will result in penalties being imposed.
