About Hampton Water

Jesse and his dad, Jon Bon Jovi, shared a vision to disrupt the wine category with a brand that is unlike all others. The father-son duo created the Hampton Water Wine brand concept, bringing on famed French winemaker, Gérard Bertrand. Launching in 2018 with Hampton Water Rosé, the brand quickly rose above the ranks to be more than just another celebrity brand. It is a family business that has earned four years of 90-point ratings from Wine Spectator, 91 points from Wine Enthusiast and Decanter, and was recognized as an Impact Hot Prospect brand two years in a row. With an incredibly engaged social media presence of over 625,000 followers, Hampton Water is making waves by taking a modern digital approach in an often-traditional category. Seeing such success with the still rosé, Hampton Water is proud to have expanded their brand portfolio with a sparkling rosé in 2024: Hampton Water Bubbly. The brand is creating loyal brand advocates, surpassing their category, and delivering double-digit volume growth year over year.

#SportyPeachy USL Names English Premier League Executive Tony Scholes President of New Division One Men's League

The United Soccer League (USL) announced that Tony Scholes, Chief Football Officer of the English Premier League and former Chief Executive Officer of Stoke City FC, has been named President of the USL's new top-tier Division One professional men's league. Scholes will oversee the operations of the league, shaping its structure, standards, and long-term development as the USL prepares to introduce promotion and relegation to U.S. professional soccer.

He joins the USL with nearly 30 years of experience in English football, bringing a unique perspective from both the league and club leadership. As Chief Football Officer of the Premier League – one of the most successful sports leagues in the world and global standard for professional soccer – Scholes strengthened competition standards and protocols, enhanced youth development pathways, and fostered collaboration between clubs and league leadership. His work included advancing initiatives around player development, global talent access, competition integrity, and the responsible evolution of technologies such as Video Assistant Referee 'VAR'.

Before joining the Premier League, Scholes spent 17 years as Chief Executive of Stoke City, where he oversaw the club's promotion to the Premier League and a decade of sustained success at the top level of English football. During that time, the club also achieved Category One academy status, reached the UEFA Europa League, and developed community programs focused on education, health, and inclusion.

"Tony Scholes is a proven leader with experience at the highest levels of the global game," said Alec Papadakis, CEO of the United Soccer League. "The Premier League is the most-watched soccer league in the world, followed by billions of fans in more than 200 countries, and Tony has been responsible for the football operations of the league while also leading a club. He brings unmatched credibility and perspective as we build our Division One league and introduce promotion and relegation in U.S. professional soccer. His appointment marks another major step forward for the USL and underscores the confidence and momentum behind what we're building."

The USL currently operates the USL Championship and League One, and with the addition of Division One will complete a fully connected three-tier professional system with promotion and relegation – a first in U.S. professional sports.

"I am thrilled to join the USL at such an important moment for the game in America," Scholes said. "Having worked in football at every level of the English system, I've seen the power of sport and the compelling nature of games that truly matter, week after week. Promotion and relegation create opportunity, consequence, and emotion that capture the imagination of players and fans alike. The chance to help bring that model to the U.S., while developing high-performing leagues and pathways for players, is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."

Scholes added: "The USL has the rare chance to build something from a clean sheet – a league structure rooted in performance, sustainability, and community connection. I look forward to working with the league's leadership and new and existing clubs to establish the standards and systems that will ensure the USL's long-term success."

Scholes' appointment follows a series of strategic moves by the USL, including a partnership with BellTower Partners and the addition of BellTower CEO Kewsong Lee as Vice Chair of the Board.

Scholes will begin his role in Summer 2026 after concluding his responsibilities at the Premier League.

About the United Soccer League

Founded in 1986, the United Soccer League is the largest and fastest-growing soccer organization in the United States, impacting more than 200 communities nationwide. It is the first and only organization to offer a complete youth-to-professional pathway for both men and women under one ecosystem. The USL operates four men's leagues: the newly announced top-tier professional Division I league, the USL Championship (Division II), USL League One (Division III) and USL League Two (pre-professional). On the women's side, it oversees the Gainbridge Super League (Division I), which launched in 2024, and the USL W League, the country's top pre-professional women's league. The USL also runs the USL Academy and USL Youth programs to support talent development and youth engagement.

With long-term media rights deals across CBS Sports, ESPN, TUDN, and Peacock, the USL is the most accessible soccer league in the country.

Three haircuts by Edward Tricomi!
Peachy Deegan has simple taste.
She likes only the best.
Warren Tricomi is the best because Edward Tricomi is the best.

Legendary Warren-Tricomi Salons co-founder Edward Tricomi is known for demanding excellence in everything he does. Be it hair, fashion, or music – when Tricomi is involved, perfection isn’t just expected: it’s inevitable. The roots (no pun intended) of his renowned career began after a suggestion from his sister that he try cutting hair to supplement his income as a musician. Growing up, Edward read Vogue religiously, devouring and absorbing the art within it. Moreover, as the grandson of a fashion designer, he was always surrounded and inspired by the world of fashion. Decades later, Edward is perhaps the most iconic and influential hair historian of our era.

Warren-Tricomi prides itself on being more than just a hair and beauty salon. All stylists trained at Warren-Tricomi are required to study and become experts in not only styling, but also fashion history. It is fundamental to the Warren-Tricomi brand that this extensive knowledge and perspective is present in every single haircut given in their salons. Few other salons can also make this claim, in the same way that few other salons are perpetually and actively on the forefront of beauty and fashion in the way Warren-Tricomi has been for the last 25 years. This significance and influence is evident in many facets of Tricomi’s business, one of which is the fact that they do at least three fashion shows each season, all over the world.

Throughout his prolific career Edward has mentored many well-known stylists including Italo Gregorio, Patrick Melville and Ric Popino. He has worked with virtually every celebrity, including Barbara Streisand, Mick Jagger, Nicky and Paris Hilton, the Kardashians, Scarlett Johansson, Jessica Alba, Justin Timberlake and Jimmy Fallon. Edward is constantly garnering inspiration from the people he works with: models like Patti Hansen, makeup artists like Pat McGrath and photographers like Roxanne Lowit.

The legacy of Edward and the Warren-Tricomi Salons continue to be a driving force and influential cornerstone of both the beauty and fashion industries. Their cutting-edge techniques, coupled with their deep appreciation and understanding of history and those who have come before and inspired them, enables Edward’s business to be the embodiment of modern fashion and beauty; at once both trendsetting and classic. Yet despite his significant impact and illustrious, celebrated career one esteemed fashion photographer and devoted Warren-Tricomi customer calls Edward a “phenomenon and one of the most talented hair dressers in the world” passionate and devoted beauty pioneer and mogul Edward Tricomi will tell you he’s never worked a day in his life.

"It's not who you know, it's Whom You Know and Peachy Deegan and I were recommended to each other by another Washington DC entrepreneur and we had a terrific positive experience with her first review of Boss Shepherd's in the Warner Theatre in 2015 where I was awarded Peachy's Picks status after our first meeting, and enjoyed further accolades that we earned in 2016 when we reunited. The cream does rise to the top and the best of the best often know each other and we discovered we had a mutual friend in Charles Kipps (Hustle!), as I was the manager for Peaches and Herb and I like that Peachy covers music and in particular the Recording Academy in New York Notes (over 1,000 music posts to date) and I loved her coverage of the Beatles AI release last fall, Now and Then. Peachy's superlative style of writing and winning personality make Whom You Know the success it has been and will continue to be, and I have been pleased to recommend her to entrepreneurs I know." -Paul J. Cohn, Chair Emeritus of the Resturant Association of Maryland Washington (RAMW)

"Working with Peachy Deegan and Whom You Know has been one of the smartest decisions we’ve made for our brand. Not everyone fully understands the power of social media and how it can elevate a business—but Peachy has been showing that since 2009. She’s helped countless brands grow by educating the public and industry professionals alike. Many people have become smarter about their online presence because of her consistent, thoughtful work.Peachy is incredibly detail-oriented and accurate when it comes to facts. She does not rush through anything—she takes her time and gives every subject the attention it deserves. Her reviews go beyond surface-level impressions. She carefully tests and monitors everything from food presentation to taste and preparation. Her dedication is real, and it shows. When she featured our restaurant Biricchino and our salami and deli shop Salumeria Biellese, it became clear just how invested she is in our story. She values the heritage and craftsmanship that go into our food, and she took time to learn about our history and traditions. She’s enthusiastic about our success and genuinely cares about where we’ve been and where we’re going. Thanks to her feature, we’ve seen stronger engagement online and a clearer digital presence. She has helped shape how we appear to the world and has made sure we are represented with professionalism, authenticity, and pride. We are proud to say that Peachy will absolutely be included in our 100-year anniversary celebration. Her knowledge, care, and commitment to excellence have had a lasting impact on us. She knows what she’s doing. She delivers. And we are so grateful to have her in our corner." -With appreciation, The Team at Biricchino & Salumeria Biellese, Fouad Alsharif

"In the wide world of the internet which is only growing, there is no one as well-versed in quality in the English language as Peachy Deegan. We are proud to have partnered with Whom You Know for over a decade (read the first review here) and though Whom You Know has significant accolades in the culinary industry, Peachy Deegan goes beyond to cover the greatest sport on earth, hockey in NHL Peachy including fabulous videos with Sidney Crosby and the sensational Warmies, beloved by kids! I think there are around 200 columns so there is something for everyone. We await new stories with enthusiasm as no one has greater ability to detect the latest and greatest and keep up with it on top of that in 28,000 posts plus over 14 years. We are so proud to have been named Best in Show in the New York Produce show by Whom You Know for many years and we love seeing her there." -John Slagel, Regional Director East Coast, Sunkist Growers
