For even the most seasoned festival dresser, choosing the right shoes can pose a seemingly impossible challenge. For festivals like Coachella and Stagecoach, one has to prioritize breathability to avoid overheating and sweat in the desert heat. But of course, skin-baring sandals are a wish death on the dust-heavy grounds of Indio Valley. And while classic sneakers like Converse Chuck Taylors or Nike Air Force 1s are a safe move for the miles of walking you’re bound to rack up throughout the weekend, you’ll have to accept that you might be matching with everyone in your direct vicinity. So, what’s the solution? The answer may lie in a decades-old company called Palladium Boots, whose Pampa boots were created in 1947 but whose roots actually go as far back as 1920 when the brand was originally founded to produced tires for the fledgling aviation industry. Since then, despite not being a household name, Palladium Boots has become a Hollywood fixture, adored by everyone from Brad Pitt to Kylie Jenner. And this past weekend at Coachella, Shawn Mendes made a convincing case that Palladium’s versatile and durable high-tops, which he paired with beige khakis and a white graphic tee, make for the perfect festival shoe.

Brad Pitt‘s been associated with a few of the most high-profile romances in Hollywood, but his dating history is actually even more extensive than the first names that might come to mind.

Brad Pitt’s foundation – benefitting victims of Hurricane Katrina – still hasn’t paid.The story was broken by The Hollywood Reporter, which described how homeowners in New Orleans’ Lower Ninth Ward are still left struggling, after the homes that were rebuilt for them after the hurricane have been compromised by rot, mould and structural defects.The homes were built by Brad Pitt’s Make It Right Foundation, and in some cases, had to be rebuilt three times over between the period of 2005 (when the hurricane hit) and 2014. Following the poor living conditions of the newly-built properties, the residents launched a 2018 class-action lawsuit, which sought damages against the non-profit organisation and Pitt himself.In 2022, however, another charity, Global Green USA – which also has famous connections and a history of helping rebuild infrastructure in the area – offered to step in and pay a $20.5million (£16.3million) settlement.

By the sounds of it, fans shouldn’t expect to see Eva Mendes on the red carpet at the premiere for Barbie even though it stars her long-term love Ryan Gosling.

But before Pitt was the owner, the home belonged to Cassandra Peterson, also known as Elvira, Mistress of the Dark.
