Notable names came out in full force to support East End causes, ranging from local animal shelters to Hamptons museums to the arts.

On Thursday, July 9th, “Avengers: Age of Ultron” actress Scarlett Johansson had lunch with her family at Townline BBQ in Sagaponack.

On Friday, Adrian Grenier celebrated his 39th birthday at Sole East in Montauk. The “Entourage” star was spotted at Sole’s free outdoor concert series, which featured artists from Grenier’s Wreckroom Records, including The Skins, Idgy Dean and Alex Phoenix. On Saturday night, Grenier was among honorees at South Fork Natural History Museum & Nature Center’s Summer Gala. “I’m very honored to be a part of this wonderful community of people,” he told Hamptons.com at the benefit.

Candice Bergen and Marshall Rose were spotted at Rowdy Hall in East Hampton on Friday. The duo dined outside, enjoying salads and iced teas. Later on, “Inside the Actors Studio” host James Lipton and his wife stopped by for soup and salad with friends.

Newlyweds Billy Joel and Alexis Roderick had a date night at The 1770 House in East Hampton on Friday. The expectant parents were also spotted at Osteria Salina in Wainscott.

75 Main was the place to spot a celeb over the weekend. VH1’s “Mob Wives” stars Renee Graziano, Drita D’Avanzo, Angela “Big Ang” Raiola, Alicia DiMichele and Natalie Guercio dined there on Friday night and then headed to the lounge, where they partied until 2 a.m. On Saturday, “Devious Maids” actress Susan Lucci, Bruce Blakeman and his wife Segal Magoti and Kim Kardashian’s BFF Jonathan Cheban stopped by the Southampton hotspot. On Sunday, former House Speaker and current United States House of Representatives Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi enjoyed a late lunch. The Southampton spot received a special visit from the U.S. Secret Service, who conducted a security sweep three days before Pelosi dined there. The United States House of Representatives Minority Leader entered 75 Main through the restaurant’s back entrance, and according to observers, had a tense lunch with a male patron. On a lighter note, “Today” show co-host Hoda Kotb, her boyfriend Financier Joel Shiffman, and New York Giants Co-Owner Jonathan Tisch were also spotted at the Hamptons eatery on Sunday.

On Saturday, Jon Bon Jovi and his wife had a late dinner at Nick & Toni’s with Ron Perelman and his wife. The group sat in the front room of the East Hampton hotspot, where they sipped on Mai Tais and dined on fish.

Beth Ostrosky Stern, Georgina Bloomberg, and Chuck Scarborough supported the Gimme Shelter Animal Rescue benefit on Saturday night. Held at the Southampton home of Chuck and Ellen Scarborough, the event brought out over 350 guests, who sipped on Altaneve Prosecco and cooled down with Buddhaberry frozen yogurt, while gushing over the adoptable dogs and puppies.

Hamptons International Film Festival (HIFF) hosted a screening of “Best of Enemies,” as part of its SummerDocs series. Held on Saturday at Guild Hall in East Hampton, attendees included “Best of Enemies” directors Robert Gordon and Academy Award winner Morgan Neville, the film’s star Dick Cavett, and SummerDocs Series presenter Alec Baldwin. Following the screening, Alec Baldwin and Hilaria Baldwin joined HIFF Artistic Director David Nugent for dinner at The 1770 House.

  • When Jesse Bongiovi launched Hampton Water Wine Co. with his dad, Jon Bon Jovi, in 2018, he helped redefine what modern rosé could look and feel like—sun-soaked, effortless, and rooted in moments shared with the people you love.⁠
⁠
Now, with the growth of Lily Pond Group, he’s expanding that vision far beyond the bottle. Influenced by years spent in the Hamptons’ uniquely relaxed and refined culture, Jesse’s approach to brand-building is all about capturing a feeling: the blend of ease, taste, and connection that defines a perfect summer day out East.⁠
⁠
With Lily Pond Group’s emerging portfolio—including Hampton Water, Five Springs, and Mezcal Mezul—Jesse is shaping brands that stand for more than just good drinks. They’re grounded in storytelling, authenticity, and community, with the kind of cultural resonance that turns a product into a lifestyle.⁠
⁠
Jesse spoke more about how he got started, how the Hamptons informed his approach, and what he sees on the horizon for the next generation of lifestyle brands.⁠
⁠
When did you come up with the concept for Hampton Water and decide to move forward with it?⁠
⁠
JB: We saw an opportunity to change the narrative around rosé and the idea of “rosé season.” We wanted something sophisticated but still fun and easygoing, something that reflected the lifestyle we love. When we connected with Gérard Bertrand, it all clicked. The quality in the juice matched the story we wanted to tell, and that’s when we knew we had something special.⁠

  • What began as a shared dream between two young farming apprentices has grown into a year-round nonprofit that feeds, teaches, and welcomes thousands of people each season. Today, co-founders Amanda Merrow and Katie Baldwin continue to nurture the land while carrying out their mission to educate and inspire through food and farming.⁠
⁠
From securing ownership of their farmland to expanding their programs, opening a year-round market, and welcoming visitors to explore the property, Amber Waves has become an essential piece of the East End’s agricultural and cultural landscape. Amanda and Katie spoke about their journey, the mission that continues to guide them, and the vision behind one of the most meaningful community-driven farms on Long Island.⁠
⁠
What core mission drives the farm today, and how has that mission evolved since the beginning?⁠
⁠
Amanda & Katie: We met in 2008 while completing a farming apprenticeship at Quail Hill Farm where we both discovered our shared love of farming. By that July, we were already dreaming up ways to continue farming together in Amagansett. When we founded Amber Waves Farm, our vision was to build something greater than ourselves—something that would outlive us. Our original idea, the “Amagansett Wheat Project,” grew out of a daydream to create a “pizza farm,” and our name, Amber Waves, pays homage to grain production—a line from the song “America the Beautiful”. From the beginning, we chose to be a nonprofit because our mission—to teach and connect people through food and farming—has always been at the heart of what we do.⁠
