And though you might not be too familiar with their names, their guestlist featured some of the most famous music artists, actors and sports stars in the world. Attending their ultra-exclusive in-home blowout were the likes of Jay-Z and BeyoncĂŠ, Leonardo DiCaprio, Joel Embid, Travis Scott, Kevin Hart, Odell Beckham Jr., Jennifer Lopez along with her man, third best Batman (Ben Affleck), and many others.

How is this man not a household name? Usher and Ne-Yo took the stage for a surprise performance for Godâs sake! Who catered this event? Gordon Ramsay? Bobby Flay? Salt Bae? We wanna know!
Check out pics and video of Michael Rubin and Camile Fishelâs pre-July 4th event in the gallery, and let us know if youâll be having these two on your radar going forward in the comments section below.

The season finale of Silo, Apple TVâs sleeper hit starring Rebecca Ferguson, Common, David Oyelowo, Rashida Jones and Tim Robbins, drops Friday (June 30).
On the show, the last 10,000 people on earth live in a giant silo located a mile underground to protect them from the âtoxic and deadly world outside.â No one knows how or when the silo was built and what awaits them outside, but theyâre not allowed to question how they got there or attempt to break free â without consequence.

Ferguson stars as Juliette, an engineer who stumbles upon secrets about the silo while searching for answers surrounding the death of a family member.
Silo was adapted from Hugh Howeyâs bestselling novels, Wool, Shift and Dusty. The dystopian series was created by Emmy-nominated screenwriter Graham Yost, who serves as showrunner and executive producer.
Howey, Ferguson and Morten Tyldum are executive producers as well, along with Nina Jack, Fred Golan, RĂŠmi Aubuchon and Ingrid Escajeda. Tyldum directed the showâs first three episodes.

Will There Be a Silo Season 2?
Is Silo returning for season 2? After gaining a cult following since its premiere on May 5, the series has officially been renewed for a second season, Apple announced on June 14.
âIt has been enormously fulfilling to see the engrossing, atmospheric and beautifully crafted sci-fi epic Silo quickly become Appleâs number one drama series,â said Matt Cherniss, head of programming for Apple TV+. âAs audiences around the world have become gripped by the mysteries and conspiracies buried within this fascinating subterranean world, viewership only continues to climb, and we are so excited for more secrets of the silo to be revealed in season 2.â
âWe cannot wait for audiences around the world to immerse themselves in the epic world we have created to bring Hugh Howeyâs novels to life,â added Yost. âApple has believed in our vision from day one and itâs an honor to have the opportunity to dig deeper into this story and peel back the layers to our characters in the silo.â
Though itâs unclear when season 2 will premiere and how the writerâs strike and a potential SAG-AFTRA strike could impact scheduling, the show recently started shooting its second season, Ferguson revealed in an interview with Collider.

Besties give each other luxury handbags â at least, Cardi B and Latto do. Cardi took a moment Thursday afternoon (June 29) to publicly thank her friend for gifting her with a stunning bright blue Chanel purse, just a couple weeks after the duo landed a chart hit with their âPut It On Da Floor Againâ remix.
Sharing a photo on Twitter, Cardi showed off her new accessory â a classic Chanel handbag with turquoise leather and gold hardware â and wrote, âThis purse tho đąđâŚ.. Thanks @Latto.â
âLove u Big Bardiiiii,â Latto replied, retweeting Cardiâs post.
The stylish purse appears to be Chanelâs Mini Flap Bag, which is made of patent calfskin with gold-tone metal in green and blue. According to the brandâs website, the accessory costs $4,900.
The lavish purchase may have been a celebratory thank-you gift for Cardi, whose remix of Lattoâs âPut It On Da Floor Againâ propelled the track to new heights on the charts. Clocking in at No. 6 on Billboardâs Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart dated June 17, the song earned Latto her second ever top 10 track on the ranking.
The remix also recently hit a peak of No. 13 on the Billboard Hot 100, making it Lattoâs second highest-placing song on the chart behind âBig Energy,â which reached No. 3 in 2021. âDey thought I was gone fall off I hate to bring u bad news đ˘ Jackpots & Bardi Gang up +10000!!!!â the Atlanta, Georgia native celebrated on Twitter at the time.
Both women were nominated this year for best female hip-hop artist at the BET Awards, with Latto taking home the prize at the June 25 ceremony.
In other Cardi news, the âWAPâ rapper was recently involved in an online spat with her own husband after Offset implied sheâd cheated on him with a post on his Instagram Story. In response, Cardi sounded off in a Twitter Spaces audio clip, telling the Migos rapper, âSo please, boy, stop acting stupid. Stop acting supid. Going crazy over a fâing space. Donât play with me. What the fâk. Stop playing. Thatâs all Iâm gonna motherfâking say.â
