Sports Illustrated Beyond the Pitch - The Night before the FIFA World Cup Finals

History was made at New York Fashion Week when faith, culture, and high fashion converged on the runway. 

For the first time in the event’s history, a runway show dedicated entirely to Jewish and Israeli designers took center stage. Titled “I Love Jewish Girls,” the sold-out event brought vibrant energy, cultural pride, and diverse style to Lower Manhattan. 

Inside the historic Léman Ballroom in Manhattan’s Financial District, the atmosphere was electric. Co-hosted by The House of Faith & Fashion’s Tobi Rubinstein and EPN Fashion Week, this wasn’t just a fashion show - it was a bold declaration of identity and pride just ahead of Rosh Hashanah. 

The clothing spanned the entire fashion spectrum. Audiences saw everything from avant-garde haute couture to specialized streetwear, contemporary ready-to-wear, and an entirely dedicated modest fashion segment. 

The evening culminated in a powerful moment of unity, closing out with the sounding of a Shofar.

Don Lemon Encourages Everyone to Write it Down!

If it’s the first Saturday in August that means it’s the East Hampton Library’s Annual Authors Night fundraiser. This year marks the 22nd annual gathering.

One of the most popular and celebrity-studded events of the Hamptons’ summer calendar, Authors Night featured 100 authors across all genres.

The evening begins with the Authors Cocktail Party reception under a grand tent, where guests met and mingled with the authors, purchasing their books after asking them to personally inscribe a special message.

NYC VIBE was invited by the library to meet up with the authors to talk about their work and their message to their communities.

Mike Leventhal asked the controversial news and podcaster Don Lemon about why it’s so important to write these books.

The 22nd annual authors night is now in the books with an expected half a million dollars to be raised to benefit the East Hampton Library’s general operations, allowing them to provide free community programs and services throughout the year.

The chefs and grill masters took their roles very seriously this past Saturday night at the Clubhouse in East Hampton for the annual Dan’s Hamptons Grill.

If you love meat - of all kinds - this was the place to come with an empty stomach and leave very full and satisfied.

NYC VIBE was invited by Josh Schneps to see for ourselves how these experts worked for days to prepare a night of tastings that had the guests nodding their heads in approval.

Meats, sauces, glazes, spices and secret ingredients were on the grill right in front of the hundreds that attended. Ribeye, Brisket, Burgers, Lamb and more - My goodness… 

Many approached these famous Long Island chefs asking for the recipes - but the answer we heard all night was - you just have to visit the restaurants…

Over the past six months, NYC Vibe has captured the dynamic energy flowing through New York City - starting in the East End where Bronx-born Cuba Gooding Jr. celebrated the 30th anniversary of Jerry Maguire at Dan’s Light Up the Night in the Hamptons. 

Across the city, the New York Knicks brought euphoria to local fans with a historic celebration at Madison Square Garden, while the arts scene electrified Broadway with the Drama Desk Awards, Adrien Brody’s Broadway debut, and Gucci’s historic takeover of Times Square alongside the Met Gala.

The reimagined production of Cats: The Jellicoe Ball earned praise from Sir Andrew Lloyd Webber, and local neighborhoods like Elmhurst, Queens vibrated with passion during Argentina World Cup viewing parties and the Sports Illustrated Beyond the Pitch event.

Philanthropy and film rounded out the action, featuring Eva Longoria and Marc Anthony honoring J Balvin at the 12th annual Maestro Cares Gala, alongside Kevin James stepping out for his romantic comedy Solo Mio.

From red carpets to stadium crowds, NYC Vibe delivers ultimate coverage of the city’s unstoppable spirit.

Well it was just 7 years ago - July of 2019 in Southampton when NYC VIBE caught up with the former New York Mets great centerfielder Carlos Beltran - who was raising funds for his foundation for an important initiative at that time - providing disaster relief from the aftermath of Hurricane Maria - which had literally destroyed his birth home Puerto Rico.

Now remember it was the summer of 2019 - and we asked Carlos what his retirement plans would look like.

Well  it was just months later when the nine time All Star was hired as a first-time manager for the New York Mets.

But he was implicated as a player and key participant in the 2017 Houston Astros illicit sign-stealing scheme and forced to step down on January 16, 2020, acknowledging in a statement that he fell short as a leader.

So time has passed and it was a wonderful weekend as the three time Golden Glove award winner was included in the National Baseball Hall of Fame Class of 2026 - honored in Cooperstown, NY.

So that brings us back to Manhattan where NYC VIBE met up with former Met shortstop Jose Reyes who was adamant that Carlos Beltran should be the next New York Mets manager.

The Mets state they have not really started the process but with endorsements like this - and that they wanted him back then - this could be a calling sign…

New York’s “Little Argentina” Hosted a Loud & Energetic Fan Fest It’s the finals of the 2026 FIFA World Cup - and the most exciting location for the Argentinian fans to gather was on Corona Avenue in the Elmhurst section of Queens - known as “Little Argentina.”

Once an epicentre of the Argentinian diaspora that settled in New York City, most relocating during the so-called “dirty war” of the 1970s, only a handful of Argentinian restaurants and bakeries remain as a foothold of what once was in the Elmhurst, Queens neighbourhood.

But on World Cup finals weekend - there was joy, hope and excitement to join together to cheer on the team they love.

So all in all - Spain wins - Argentina holds their heads up high - and life continues for the Argentinian descent in Elmhurst Queens - thinking about returning in four years time…
