Levi Strauss & Co. debuts The Denim Cowboy with Beyoncé
The Levi's® brand, in collaboration with global icon Beyoncé, today debuted The Denim Cowboy, the final instalment of the year-long Levi's® REIIMAGINE campaign. The film weaves together the three previous chapters, revealing the campaign as more than a reinterpretation of iconic Levi's® advertisements - it is the creation of a new narrative centred on empowerment and rewriting the rules. Shown throughout The Denim Cowboy are Levi's® icons and hero pieces from the new BEYONCÉ x LEVI'S® denim collection that serve as the film's uniform and latest cornerstone of the partnership with Beyoncé, highlighting the brand's denim lifestyle leadership.

Set to an exclusive edit of the "Levi's Jeans" soundtrack from the Grammy Award-winning album, Cowboy Carter, the 90-second film includes new scenes and extended cuts from the previously released Launderette, Pool Hall and Refrigerator films - all inspired by classic Levi's® advertisements from the '80s and '90s. Once again, the Levi's® brand partnered with Grammy Award-winning director Melina Matsoukas to bring this vision to life.
Recontextualising the previous chapters and unveiling new details, The Denim Cowboy reveals that Beyoncé's winning prize from the pool game is none other than the local shark's 501® jeans, played by award-winning actor, Timothy Olyphant (Justified, Deadwood). Beyoncé stuns in a crystalised '90s Shrunken Trucker paired with the 501® Curve jeans, a new and ground breaking 501® silhouette designed to celebrate and fit curves without compromising the authentic straight-leg silhouette that makes the 501® so timeless and enduring. Channelling the bold glamour first unveiled in Pool Hall, the Western Crystal '90s Shrunken Trucker and Western Crystal 501® Curve jeans emerge as the standout statement pieces of the BEYONCÉ X LEVI'S® denim collection.
"The Denim Cowboy marks the culmination of the ground breaking Levi's® REIIMAGINE campaign, marking the final celebration of a partnership that has explored reinvention and reinterpretation at every turn," said Kenny Mitchell, Global Chief Marketing Officer of the Levi's® brand at Levi Strauss & Co. "The campaign represents a new level and scale of collaboration that has put women at the centre of the narrative, and set in motion a new, iconic chapter in Levi's® history that continues to reaffirm the brand's place at the centre of culture."The partnership reached a dazzling crescendo during Beyoncé's final performances of COWBOY CARTER TOUR in Las Vegas where the icon's entire dance crew lit up the stage in the shimmering new pieces from the BEYONCÉ X LEVI'S® denim collection - looks inspired by the bold spirit of the ongoing REIIMAGINE campaign.The BEYONCÉ X LEVI'S® denim collection - including the Western Crystal '90s Shrunken Trucker (250 dollars) and the Western Crystal 501® Curve (150 dollars) - along with two other head-to-toe denim sets will be available starting August 4th on Beyonce.com and globally August 7th on Levi.com and select Levi's® stores.
The Denim Cowboy launches with a fully integrated global campaign, including television, digital, social media, and out-of-home. The campaign maintains the Levi's® tradition of working with the most celebrated creative talents of our time. Matsoukas collaborated with Emmy Award-winning cinematographer Marcell Rév and acclaimed photographer Mason Poole to capture the visual essence of the REIIMAGINE campaign, adding another layer to the rich tapestry of iconic Levi's® campaigns.

Beyoncé wins her first Emmy ahead of Primetime ceremony next month
It's official: Beyoncé is now an Emmy winner. Queen B was listed as one of a half dozen people on a team that won the Emmy for Best Costumes for Variety, Nonfiction or Reality Programming for 'Beyoncé Bowl', her Western-themed halftime show on Netflix's Christmas NFL game between the Baltimore Ravens and Houston Texans. The award was among a handful of so-called juried Emmys announced yesterday that are determined outside the regular voting process and given out by committees, with no official nominees. They are usually highly technical and are announced in advance. The awards will be handed out at the Creative Arts Emmy Awards ceremony which will take place on 7 September - one week before the 2025 Primetime Emmys. Beyoncé has been nominated for 10 other Emmys in the past but never won - making this special Emmy her first. Now, the singer is halfway to an EGOT (Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, Tony) as she already has 35 Grammys. All she needs now is an Oscar and a Tony to complete the quartet. The Primetime Emmy nominations were announced last month – check out the full list of nominees here – and below are all of the 2025 juried Emmy winners, as announced yesterday: Best Individual Achievement in Animation Best Motion Design Best Innovation in Emerging Media Programming Best Costumes for Variety, Nonfiction or Reality Programming The 2025 Emmys will be handed out on 7 September at the Creative Arts ceremony; the Primetime Emmys will take place on 14 September.

Kazakh vocalist stuns jury, wins big at Portofino's Opera Competition
Kazakh opera singer Aigerim Altynbek won the 11th International Opera Competition CLIP 2025 held in Portofino, Italy. Altynbek swept the competition at the CLIP 2025 opera contest, winning the First Prize, the Female Voice Award, the Emotion Prize and the Carlo Majer Award. 'It was a special experience for me, and I believe that there are even greater heights ahead,' wrote Altynbek on Instagram. 'A huge thank you to everyone who supported me along the way.' Kazakh President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev congratulated Altynbek on her victory, highlighting that it showcased 'Kazakhstan's rich culture to the world and earning recognition from international experts.' 'You have proudly represented our country and its national art on the global stage. I am confident that even greater achievements lie ahead for you,' he said. Une publication partagée par Primocanale (@ The vocalist is no stranger to such competitions, as she previously took top places and awards at various opera competitions. Altynbek was also chosen to intern at the Accademia Teatro alla Scala. In June, she performed duets with renowned opera singers Andrea Bocelli and José Carreras. The CLIP 2025 gathered singers from 50 countries. More than 200 singers applied to take part, but only 92 were invited to perform. Of them, only 10 vocalists reached the finale. Second place in the contest went to South Korean singer Junhyeok Felix Park, third went to Russian Elisaveta Shuvalova, and fourth went to Italy's own Lucia Tumminelli. The Concorso Lirico Internazionale di Portofino (CLIP) is an annual opera competition, which serves as a platform for discovering young talents and connecting singers with opera houses. The jury consists of impresarios, directors and managers of the major European opera houses, including the Vienna State Opera, Teatro alla Scala, Glyndebourne, Metropolitan Opera and Théâtre des Champs-Élysées.
