Sydney Sweeney is cleaning up with her latest celebrity endorsement as the “Body Wash Genie” for men’s grooming company Dr. Squatch.

The Emmy-nominated Euphoria andThe White Lotus actress is helping launch the company’s new “natural” body wash in a sudsy new campaign. In a series of playful photos and videos, Sweeney showcases the brand’s latest shower-ready formula while also likely working potential customers into a bit of a lather.

“There’s something irresistible about a man who knows how to take care of his skin, and guys who aren’t using Dr. Squatch’s new Natural Body Wash are missing the mark,” Sweeney said in a statement issued by the soap brand, adding that she’s particularly “obsessed with Coconut Castaway” in the Dr. Squatch scent lineup.

Dr. Squatch—best known for organic bar soaps and beard products—adds that it’s channeling Sweeney’s “fun, playful energy” to reach guys who need a better body wash. Priced at $15 a bottle and available online via Dr. Squatch and elsewhere, the body wash could certainly prove popular with Sweeney fans who want to upgrade from their usual drug store body wash.

In other Sweeney news, among the red-hot Anyone But You actress’s upcoming projects include her plans to star in a feature-length movie about the life of boxer Christy Martin, who was America’s most popular female pugilist of the 1990s.

Studded bags, soft knits, and suede sneakers galore.

Cozy season is coming.

An autumn-wardrobe hero.

It’s a classic.

Drams of scotch, flutes of champagne, and, of course, shaken-not-stirred martinis are all waiting to quench the thirsts of 007 disciples at what’s been dubbed the “world’s first James Bond Bar” celebrating the 60th anniversary of Goldfinger.

Now until December 31, the prestigious Burlington Arcade on Piccadilly in London’s West End will host The 007, a two-floor pop-up bar opened in partnership with Belvedere, Blackwell Rum, Champagne Bollinger and Macallan—all being libations brands that have previously partnered with the James Bond franchise.

In addition to three gold Aston Martin DB5 sculptures hung from the site’s historic ceilings, a vast collection of James Bond memorabilia will be on-display, including Goldfinger props like Oddjob’s hat, a Fort Knox gold bar, Goldfinger’s golf shoes and the never-before-exhibited spyhole clock from the villain’s private plane. Omega, Bond’s preferred watchmaker, has also brought over the only two gold 007 timepieces—the Seamaster Diver 300M Commander’s Watch (2017) and the Seamaster Diver 300M James Bond Limited Edition (2019), which commemorated the 50th anniversary of On Her Majesty’s Secret Service.

Patrons will also have the opportunity to purchase several collectable from a 007 boutique, including a James Bond 2024 luxury advent calendar, limited edition framed prints, and The Macallan’s highly collectible 60th Anniversary Decades whisky sets. An official statement also teases that Fabergé’s Octopussy capsule collection, including the handcrafted limited edition Egg Objet, will be available to view “and perhaps purchase.”

Of course, you could always kick back and sip a Vesper martini. The 007 is open now through December 31.

Presented by Faena Hotel Miami Beach

The Faena Miami Beach just launched a sultry and spellbinding new version of the iconic opera Carmen at its intimate, 150-seat Faena Theater, the gilded cabaret venue inspired by Europe’s grand opera houses and the glitzy allure of Old Hollywood.

Carmen, The Iconic Legend Reimagined is the luxury hotel theater’s latest cabaret show, following the success of Allura. In partnership with Quixotic, an award-winning performance art collective, Faena’s daringly revamped tale of fervor and fiery passion, where femme fatales, bold machismo, and smoldering romance converge into a spectacular avant-garde revue, elevate the classic musical like never before.

Guests will be captivated by master of ceremonies and Ibiza sensation Mimi Barber and dazzled by a world-renowned ensemble of choreographers, musicians, and digital artists on a riveting journey through a labyrinth of lust. Originally premiering in 1875 and set against the sultry backdrop of Seville, Spain, Carmen is a tale of passion, freedom, and fatal attraction. It follows the fiery and free-spirited gypsy Carmen and her explosive love affair with soldier Don José, one wrought with jealousy and betrayal.

Renowned for its vibrant music and dramatic storyline, the opera unfolds featuring iconic pieces like “Habanera” and the “Toreador Song.” With its powerful heroine, unforgettable melodies, and dramatic twists, Carmen captures the essence of desire and defiance, unfolding an explosive story of love and jealousy that burns as fiercely as the Spanish sun.

Faena’s creative entertainment team has injected its own signature style into the iconic story of Carmen while celebrating the production’s enduring legacy. The captivating rendition of Georges Bizet’s 19th-century opera will marry the fierce passion of flamenco with cabaret, fire artistry, cirque nouveau, and percussive live music, breathtaking visuals, and mixed styles of contemporary dance forms, all enriched with bold Spanish-inspired flavor.

The show will be a celebration of the past and present, brought to life in a spectacular, immersive performance. A thrilling blend of striking visual illusions, contemporary Latin flair, and pulse-pounding rhythms of the soul, Carmen will celebrate the esprit de vie (the spirit of life) while igniting the flames of deep desire. 

With unmatched charisma and vivacity, Barber ignites the passionate essence of Carmen, accompanied by a renowned ensemble that elevates this reinterpreted classic to its fullest brilliance. Audiences can also expect to witness electrifying performances from JC Nicot as Don José and Kamal Zebib as matador Escamillo, with choreography and a guest feature from flamenco dancer Alondra Matamoros.

The show’s music features an eclectic modern mix of flamenco and pop with a dash of modern hip-hop. Joining the cast is brilliant flamenco guitarist Rodrigo Valdez and one of Miami’s top percussionists, Otto Santana Selis. As with every production at Faena, viewers can anticipate  an exciting combination of multiple music styles.

To complement the live performance of Carmen, guests can enjoy a Spanish-inspired dinner experience with Faena Theater’s new offerings. The full dining menu features delicious cuisine, including a crudo selection, shareable small bites, Spanish tapas, Spanish-inspired dessert, craft cocktails intertwined with the show’s signature themes, and an expansive wine list.

Performances will take place on Thursdays (8:00 p.m.), Fridays (8:00 p.m.), and Saturdays (8:00 p.m. and 10:30 p.m.). Tickets are available starting at $100 per guest right here.
