Speed, Suits & Swoon: Lewis Hamilton, Damson Idris & Brad Pitt Heat Up The F1 Premiere

Thanks to Damson Idris, Lewis Hamilton, and Brad Pitt, eye candy was in overdrive in New York City. And we loved all the flavors.
The stylish trio hit the carpet for the premiere of F1: The Movie on Monday, June 16—and if you thought the need for speed was just about race cars, think again. These men gave drama, presence, and serious 'leading man energy.'

The seven-time World Champion showed up in a crisp, soft, blush double-breasted jacket tailored to perfection and cinched at the waist for a regal silhouette. Lewis paired his blazer with black trousers, diamond studs, and a statement brooch.
In other words, the 2025 Met Gala chair oozed power and quiet luxury.

Whew, Damson Idris was not playing either. Damson stepped onto the carpet in a three-piece black suit with a deep V-neckline, no tie, and all that signature swag we love from him.
He added gold jewelry, a gold watch, and the confidence of a 'man who knows how fine he is' to his look. The suit's precise tailoring was modern and easy, and the way he smiled as he posed. We are swooning.
Brad Pitt, who stars in the film as veteran F1 driver Sonny Hayes, stayed true to his understated, confident style. He wore a midnight navy double-breasted suit with peak lapels, styled with a slightly unbuttoned white shirt underneath.
The F1 movie premieres later this month, and if this screening is any indication, it looks like the film has it all. Whether you're here for the fashion, the film, or the fine men behind the wheel, F1 is giving us something to root for.

Ed Sheeran releases new song 'Drive' featuring John Mayer, Dave Grohl: Watch music video

Ed Sheeran has released new music. The singer-songwriter dropped the song "Drive" on Friday, his contribution to the soundtrack of the upcoming Brad Pitt Formula One racing film " F1." There's also a video to go along with the rocking track, which features guitar by John Mayer and drums courtesy of Foo Fighters' Dave Grohl. Watch the full video below. "i knew that i wanted to make a proper rock song for [the movie], a proper driving song. something you'd wanna turn up to the fullest amount whilst driving," Sheeran wrote in the caption of an Instagram post Friday. He noted that he co-wrote the song with Mayer and songwriter Blake Slatkin, and that Grohl and musician Pino Palladino, a session bassist, were "the final jigsaw pieces of the song." "pure dream team for the genre of rock, and i really feel what we created fits the scene in the movie so well," he continued. "i LOVE making songs for movies, ever since i did 'I See Fire' for The Hobbit. it really lets me as a movie fan, behind the curtain, help create the perfect song for a scene in a movie." In the accompanying music video, Sheeran sings on a racetrack while Formula One cars whiz by him and fly through the air. At the end, he gets behind the wheel of what looks like a super-charged dune buggy and drives through the desert and onto a beach. "Movies and art are the only hobbies outside of music i really have, and i love my time at [F1 events] whenever i get to go play there. so this was like a match made in heaven," Sheeran wrote in his Instagram post Friday. "i'm so honored to work with such great musicians on it, and hope you guys love the end result." "F1" follows veteran racer Sonny Hayes (Pitt), who is recruited by Ruben Cervantes, played by Javier Bardem, to join his Formula One team and race alongside Joshua Pearce, played by Damson Idris. The movie and the soundtrack are both out June 27.

File Photo by John Angelillo/UPI | License Photo June 20 (UPI) -- Lorde released a new song and an accompanying music video Friday. "Hammer" is the third single the New Zealand singer has released ahead of her upcoming album, Virgin, due June 27. Virgin marks the music artist's first album since Solar Power dropped in 2021. The video shows Lorde swimming, running, and even getting a tattoo in London's Hampstead Heath park. Viewers also see her sitting among pigeons and laying in the grass. "Now I know you don't deal much in love and affection," she sings. "But I really do think there could be a connection. I burn and I sing and I scheme and I dance. Some days I'm a woman, some days I'm a man." Lorde said "Hammer" is "the sound of my rebirth" in a synopsis on her website. She previously released the songs "What was That" and "Man of the Year."
