Doja Cat stuns in plunging zebra print bra and striking bleach blonde wig as she performs at Outside Lands Festival in California
Doja Cat looked strikingly different in a plunging zebra print bra and striking blonde wig as she performed at Outside Lands Festival in California. The 29-year-old singer took to the stage on Friday and put on quite the show for her fans at Golden Gate Park in San Francisco. She opted for a show-stopping co-ord which showed off her incredible physique and switched up her usual shaved head look for a bold wig. Doja - whose real name is Amala Ratna Zandile Dlamini - wowed fans with her stage presence as she danced around all night. The singer added a red lip to complete her look, as well as a studded choker and belts to go with the outfit. She appeared to channel her inner Dolly Parton with the head-turning bleach blonde locks. She was seen in action swishing her hair around as she performed her hit songs. Other stars in the line-up for the festival include Jorja Smith, Tyler, The Creator and Rebecca Black. Elsewhere, Doja recently took a swipe at Sydney Sweeney's controversial American Eagle ad in a new TikTok video. Playing off of the slogan, the Grammy-winning musician misspelled it in her caption and wrote: 'My jeans are blee.' With an exaggerated southern drawl and expressions, she mocked what the actress said in the advert. 'Genes are passed down from parents to offspring, often determining traits like hair color, personality and even eye color. My jeans are blue,' the ad sais. Sydney sparked backlash with the American Eagle ad as a slew of critics slammed the controversial slogan. Some critics alleged the phrase, 'Sydney Sweeney has good jeans,' is coded promotion of eugenics and accused campaign of being 'tone deaf'.

American Eagle has defended Sweeney amid online criticism of the star's advertising campaign with the company. American Eagle wrote in a Instagram post on Friday: 'Sydney Sweeney Has Great Jeans is and always was about the jeans. Her jeans. Her story. 'We'll continue to celebrate how everyone wears their AE jeans with confidence, their way. Great jeans look good on everyone.'

Free downtown concerts are coming back this summer.

Zoom in: The first concert, slated for June 14 at Embarcadero Plaza, will mark the second annual Back 2 Baysics event and feature the city's homegrown electronic music label Dirtybird as host. The DJ line-up is yet to be announced. The big picture: Last year's shows, which included Dirtybird: Back 2 Baysics at Embarcadero Plaza, Portugal. The Man at Civic Center Plaza and Don Louis and Sophia Scott in Union Square, drew tens of thousands of attendees. The concert in Embarcadero Plaza alone nearly tripled foot traffic in the area relative to a typical Sunday. The initiative, a three-year agreement secured by former Mayor London Breed, is aimed at revitalizing the downtown economy and supporting local businesses as well as San Francisco's arts and culture scene.

Free concert series returns to downtown San Francisco this summer
A popular downtown concert series is returning for a second year as part of a broader push to revitalize the city's urban core through free public events and cultural programming, Mayor Daniel Lurie announced Friday, May 2. In partnership with Another Planet Entertainment, the promotion company behind the annual Outside Lands festival in Golden Gate Park, and the San Francisco Recreation and Park Department, the 2025 series will kick off June 14 at Embarcadero Plaza with the second annual Back 2 Baysics concert, featuring San Francisco electronic music label Dirtybird. The event follows a successful 2024 season that drew tens of thousands to Union Square, Civic Center Plaza and Embarcadero Plaza. 'Last year's shows brought thousands of people to our downtown, and we're building on that momentum,' said Mayor Lurie. 'Our arts and culture are helping to drive San Francisco's comeback, and this is a perfect example of that energy.' The concert series is part of a three-year agreement with Another Planet Entertainment, which also includes two to three ticketed concerts at the Polo Field the weekend following the Outside Lands Festival. 'Last year was such an incredible cross-section of the San Francisco community,' Bryan Duquette, a member of Another Planet Entertainment's core executive team, said in a statement. 'San Francisco feels alive right now!' The deal supports city parks and brings significant foot traffic downtown — last year's Embarcadero concert nearly tripled local attendance on a typical Sunday, according to the mayor's office. The full lineup of events will be announced at a later date. 'Events like these remind us that our public spaces are for everyone,' said Phil Ginsburg, head of the Recreation and Park Department. 'Our downtown plazas are vibrant, joyful places where people can dance, connect, and experience the magic of live music together.'
