Pharrell Williams‘ ability to merge music, fashion, and cultural storytelling has made him one of the most influential creatives of our time. Whether it’s through his groundbreaking production in hip-hop and R&B or his game-changing collaborations in fashion, Pharrell has consistently pushed boundaries. His latest project with adidas continues this legacy, as he reimagines the classic Superstar silhouette with the bold and innovative Superstar 92 collection.

Pharrell’s fashion collaborations have always mirrored his musical innovation, bridging the gap between artistic expression and everyday wear. His long-standing partnership with Adidas has already delivered some of the most unique designs in sneaker culture, and with the Superstar 92, also known as the Double Wide, he brings a fresh, oversized twist to one of Adidas’ most celebrated silhouettes.

This new silhouette is all about proportions and nostalgia. Inspired by the exaggerated aesthetics of the ‘90s and the functional build of snowboard boots, the Superstar 92 blends heritage with modern design. The sneaker features thick padding around the ankle for comfort, a chunky sole for a bold stance, and premium materials that elevate its look and feel. With “Virginia” emblazoned on the tongue, Pharrell once again nods to his hometown roots — a theme that remains a central part of his storytelling.

Staying true to his origins, Pharrell tapped fellow Virginia hip-hop icons Clipse to lead the Superstar 92 campaign. The duo, made up of Pusha T and No Malice, played a pivotal role in shaping early 2000s rap, and their inclusion in this campaign highlights the deep cultural connections between music, sneakers, and personal identity. Shot in Virginia, the campaign reinforces the idea that the Superstar 92 is more than just a sneaker — it’s a symbol of legacy, authenticity, and evolution.
As someone who already owns six pairs of Superstars, this latest iteration feels like an instant classic, so it’s a flex for me! The chunky build, premium materials, and Virginia tribute make it more than just another sneaker drop — it’s a true reflection of Pharrell’s vision and legacy. With the Superstar 92, he’s continuing a conversation between music, fashion, and culture, one step at a time. So, where do you stand? Is this collection a Flex, a Trade, or a Fade?

The world has been watching in shock as President Donald Trump and billionaire Elon Musk break from long-held norms and attempt to concentrate political power in the presidency. Now, internet sensation Randy Rainbow is taking the pair to task for their latest executive actions.
In a new video posted Wednesday (March 5), Rainbow created another fake interview between himself, the president and Musk, where he called out the pair for making massive cuts to federal programs while attacking marginalized communities.
“Look, I realize the government might be a little bloated — trust me, I know bloated when I see it,” Rainbow says in the clip while gesturing at Trump and Musk. “But you two dime-store dictators are tearing down institutions and eroding our rights. It’s starting to feel super constitutional crisis-y.”
As is tradition in Rainbow’s parody videos, the clip then transitions to a parody version of “Defying Gravity” from Wicked, in which Rainbow begins to unravel “the same routine” that Trump is using from his first presidency. Playing both parts of Glinda and Elphaba, the comedian lambasts the president’s lack of care for the very concept of the power of the people.
“Close your mouth, you creep/ It’s time to cry, ‘Buh-bye democracy,’” Rainbow sings. “And watch this guy defy democracy/ Would someone stop this clown?!”
As the video continues, Rainbow’s costumes change constantly between the pink frocks of Glinda, the green face of Elphaba and the furry bodies of the flying monkeys as he begins to take shots at the Democrats’ inactivity in combating Trump’s proposals. When he finally arrives at the song’s iconic final moments, he extends the track just so he can fit all of his worst adjectives about Trump into one musical phrase.
“And no one in the whole U.S./ Can save us from this bleach blond mess?/ Who’s bats–t, cruel, obsessed with walls/ With ears of steel and tiny balls,” Rainbow sings while floating above the White House. “An actual convicted felon/ Dragging us all down to hell/ A narcissistic, instigating/ Fascist crook who feeds on hating/ Anyone outside his cult/ No porn star, Dem or sane adult/ Is ever going to stop this clown!”

Lady Gaga is having fun causing a little mayhem at 30 Rock, with the pop star hilariously airing out some of the Saturday Night Live cast members’ business in a new promo video posted ahead of her upcoming hosting stint.
In the clip shared Wednesday (March 5), Gaga — looking low-key in a black baseball cap and T-shirt — sits at a piano in the SNL break room and openly sings observations about the comedians who filter in and out. “Andrew Dismukes is ordering a breakfast sandwich at 2 p.m.,” she croons, playing some jazzy chords.
“Devon Walker is taking a big swing with a new hat,” the 14-time Grammy winner continues when the cast member enters wearing a camouflage cowboy hat.
Trending on Billboard
“OK, what?” a slightly offended Walker asks, to which Dismukes explains, “This is her process.”
The new video arrives just a few days ahead of Gaga’s return to the comedy series, with the musician set to serve double duty as host and musical guest on the Saturday (March 8) episode. It’ll come just hours after the release of her seventh studio album, Mayhem, the day prior.
The A Star Is Born actress previously pulled double duty on the show in 2013, which may be why she’s so comfortable on the premises in the new promo video. The clip ends with a pajama-clad Heidi Gardner leaving her office with disheveled hair, after which Gaga calls her out for “trying to pretend she isn’t sleeping here, but we all know she is.”
“And the question is, ‘Why?’” the musician belts, to which Gardner tries her hand at singing: “And the answer is bedbugs!”
It’s unknown which songs Gaga will perform this weekend, but Mayhem was led by a trio of singles — including Billboard Hot 100-topper “Die With a Smile” with Bruno Mars, “Disease” and “Abracadabra.” Also on Wednesday, fans got a taste of a new track on the LP: “Garden of Eden,” a portion of which ESPN debuted in a teaser for this year’s Formula One season while declaring the track its official anthem of 2025.
Watch Gaga put the SNL cast on blast in the new promo above.
