What a great marketing collaboration between Nike and Jalen Hurts. Rumor has it the Hurts sign attached to the LOVE statue AT LOVE PARK was not approved. They put it up in the early morning Of the Super Bowl parade and took it down around 5. It’s probably why you don’t see it on any official city social media. Hurts signed with Nike’s Jordan Brand in 2023. Priced at $75 USD, the Jalen Hurts x Jordan “Love, Hurts” Hoodie will be available soon via Nike.com.
Last night, February 25, 2025, The Philadelphia Citizen held their second annual Citizen of the Year Awards, presented by FS Investments and Michael Forman and Jennifer Rice. One of the awardees was Super Bowl MVP Jalen Hurts, the Philadelphia Eagles quarterback. (I’ll write more about this event tomorrow)
I put a story on Instagram announcing his arrival and my friend Alex Holly wrote me and said it looks like he has a wedding band on. And I said I think you’re right i’ll try and get a better picture when he gets his award very unfortunate and hustle up to the front quick enough so I shot it when he was leaving. Enough is a wedding band on. so it looks like our king has another ring to add to his collection and this one is even more love than the Super Bowl one. Congratulations to him and Bry!!
Hall of Famers Mike Versace, Lamish Maybach, and Ziggy Mona Lisa—along with the support of the City of Philadelphia Department of Public Health and Bebashi—present the 10th annual Philadelphia Kiki Awards Ball. Themed “Frozen in Time: Putting the Stigma on Ice,” the Ball promises to be an energetic evening celebrating the LGBTQIA+ community through performance, fashion, and creativity. This free event is inspired by the traditional Ballroom community but offers greater accessibility and a less competitive format to encourage youth and young adults to engage in the experiences of friendly competition and community. The Department of Public Health’s involvement with and presence at the Kiki Awards Ball aligns with its ongoing Philly Keep On Loving initiative, working to connect greater-risk populations with information and resources supporting sexual health and wellness.
Socially yours, HughE
