ROLLS-ROYCE PHANTOM AT 100

A CENTURY OF POWER AND INFLUENCE: THE ROLLS-ROYCE PHANTOM AT 100

  • Rolls-Royce reflects on Phantom’s enduring influence on the world
  • Underscores the long history of highly personal Bespoke Phantoms
  • Through its notable owners, Phantom has reflected and shaped contemporary culture
  • Present at great moments in cultural, political and world history
  • As the ultimate Rolls-Royce, Phantom is the world’s pinnacle luxury product

Phantom has held a unique position at the top of the luxury world since 1925. Over eight generations, it has transported royalty, leaders, artists, and business icons, and been part of many key moments in modern history. Known for its classic design, Phantom became a way to show status, style, and influence.

To mark its 100th anniversary, Rolls-Royce designers have created new artwork celebrating Phantom’s cultural history. Taking inspiration from a 1910 commission given to artist Charles Sykes – the creator of the Spirit of Ecstasy – the new works echo the different lives and places Phantom has touched over the last century.

As Phantom turns 100, Rolls-Royce reflects on its legacy and the many influential people tied to it. These fascinating stories – and the exquisite images they inspired our designers to create – offer a glimpse of Phantom’s extraordinary reach, and the world-changing people and events it is associated with.”

THE ROYAL CONNECTION

While Montgomery’s Phantoms were present at major world events, others served royal households – especially in the United Kingdom.

In 1948, shortly after marrying Princess Elizabeth, the Duke of Edinburgh requested a Phantom for their use. This became the first Phantom IV, still in use today. This vehicle marked the beginning of a long relationship between the Royal Family and Phantom.

The British royals later added another Phantom IV, two Phantom Vs, and two Phantom VIs to their fleet. One of the most notable is the Silver Jubilee Phantom VI, presented to Queen Elizabeth II in 1977 to commemorate her 25 years as monarch. It was also used in 2011 at the wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton.

Elsewhere, a Phantom V played a role in founding a nation. Delivered in 1966 to Sheikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahyan of Abu Dhabi, it was used in his inauguration and in 1971, transported the first British Ambassador to the UAE to the formal unification ceremony.

British diplomats around the world also used Phantom as a symbol of influence. From Tokyo to Washington and New Delhi, Phantom helped make a statement. As former British Ambassador Sir John Fretwell once said, “My Rolls definitely helped at the Élysée – the guards always knew who was arriving.”

Whether on the world stage or in Britain, Phantom stood out. The Phantom V, released in 1959, was nearly 19 feet long. Some say British parking regulations were even adjusted to fit its size.

A SIGN OF AUTHORITY

Field Marshal Bernard Law Montgomery, a key military leader in World War II, was known for his no-frills lifestyle. His one luxury was his transportation. Understanding the power of image, “Monty” used two Phantom IIIs to signal strength and dependability, reassuring his troops he would stand with them during the toughest times.

Before the D-Day invasion in June 1944, he used one Phantom to drive Winston Churchill, General Eisenhower, and King George VI to meetings at Allied headquarters in Hampshire. After the war, he used the second Phantom to transport the Prime Ministers of Canada, Australia, and New Zealand.

JOHN LENNON’S PHANTOM

Not all Phantom Vs were for officials or royalty. In 1964, John Lennon bought a Phantom V to celebrate The Beatles’ success with A Hard Day’s Night. He asked for the car to be completely black, inside and out, though Rolls-Royce insisted on keeping the chrome grille and mascot. His car was also one of the first in the UK with dark-tinted windows.

In 1967, before Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band launched, Lennon had the Phantom repainted bright yellow with swirling designs and zodiac signs. It became a symbol of the Summer of Love. According to Lennon, an older woman once hit it with her umbrella, yelling, “You swine! How dare you do that to a Rolls-Royce!” – a moment that added to its legend.

THE KING’S PHANTOM

Elvis Presley, too, chose Phantom. He bought a Phantom V in 1963, outfitted with a built-in microphone and writing kit. After his mother’s chickens damaged its Midnight Blue paint by pecking at their reflections, he had it repainted Silver Blue. In 1968, he donated the car to charity – inspiring Leonard Cohen’s and Was (Not Was)’s song Elvis’s Rolls-Royce.

PHANTOM IN HOLLYWOOD

Hollywood was quick to adopt Phantom. Studio founder Jack Warner bought one, and stars like Fred Astaire, Greta Garbo, and Mary Pickford followed suit.

In 1964, a Phantom III appeared in Goldfinger, used by the villain to smuggle gold. That marked the first of a dozen appearances by Rolls-Royce vehicles in James Bond films. In 2024, Rolls-Royce marked the 60th anniversary of Goldfinger with a custom Phantom VIII, inspired by the original car’s black and yellow design.

That same year, we saw the premiere of The Yellow Rolls-Royce, featuring a 1931 Phantom II and a star-studded cast. The soundtrack’s song “Forget Domani” won a Golden Globe and was later recorded by Perry Como and Frank Sinatra – who also owned a Rolls-Royce.

A NEW GENERATION OF OWNERS

The Phantom VII, launched in the early 2000s, arrived as self-made entrepreneurs, celebrities, and social media influencers became the new faces of success. These new owners wanted to show their personalities, and Phantom became the perfect way to do that.

Many of them used platforms like Instagram, YouTube, and Facebook to share their Phantom experiences. It soon became a regular sight at red-carpet events and major public ceremonies. In 2012, three Phantom Drophead Coupés appeared at the closing ceremony of the London Olympics, seen live by hundreds of millions. Phantom had officially entered the social media age.

PHANTOM TODAY

Now, in its eighth generation, Phantom is still the ultimate symbol of presence and purpose. It continues to draw the people shaping today’s world. Every new custom build adds to its story – one that’s all about power, influence, and personal identity.

KATSEYE – BEAUTIFUL CHAOS

KATSEYE’S NEW EP, BEAUTIFUL CHAOS, SET FOR JUNE 27 RELEASE VIA HYBE x GEFFEN RECORDS

After debuting at No. 1 on Billboard’s Emerging Artists and Heatseekers Albums charts with their 2024 debut EP SIS (Soft Is Strong), KATSEYE returns with “Gnarly,” a hard-hitting club banger built on earth-quaking 808s, gritty rave synths and a pugnacious attitude. As they embark on this new era, KATSEYE captures what it’s like to grow up in the digital age and to simultaneously be thrust in the limelight – resulting in a heady blend of excitement, vulnerability and overstimulation. Always reveling in life’s dualities, KATSEYE leans into the dual meaning of “gnarly” and embraces the blurred line between the real and the digital worlds. The track was produced by Pink Slip, Tim Randolph, HYBE founder “hitman” Bang and Slow Rabbit. Listen to “Gnarly,” released today via HYBE x Geffen Records, HERE. View the official video, directed by Cody Critcheloe HERE. The video made its broadcast premiere on MTV Live, MTVU, MTV Biggest Pop, and on the Paramount Times Square billboards.

KATSEYE says, “We want people to feel the vibes, to really connect with our music. ‘Gnarly’ feels true to us — it’s bold, it’s fun, and it shows a different side of what we’re about. It feels good to share more of that as we grow alongside the EYEKONS,” referring to the group’s dedicated fandom.

Named an artist to watch for 2025 by VEVO DSCVR and TIDAL, KATSEYE don’t just break the mold — they’re making their own. The global girl group is the first of its kind, forged within the high standards of the K-pop system, but armed with the explicit goal of smashing through boundaries both cultural and creative. Ranging in age from 17 to 22 and coming from immensely different cultures, the six members of KATSEYE are: Daniela (Cuban/Venezuelan-American, from Atlanta, GA), Lara (Indian, from New York, NY), Manon (Ghanaian-Italian, from Zurich, Switzerland), Megan (Chinese-American, from Honolulu, HI), Sophia (Manila, Philippines), and Yoonchae (Seoul, South Korea).

After the world watched them compete and come together through HYBE and Geffen Records’ groundbreaking Dream Academy show and artist development program (a story told in the Netflix docuseries, Pop Star Academy: KATSEYE), the group made its recording debut with the aptly titled single “Debut” in the summer of 2024, which was featured on Rolling Stone’s “Songs You Need to Know” playlist. KATSEYE’s second single, “Touch,” found a spot on Billboard’s Staff List of “The 100 Best Songs of 2024.” Their chart-topping debut EP, SIS (Soft Is Strong), included both singles plus three new songs.

SIS received widespread critical acclaim, with features running in Interview Magazine; PAPER; the Los Angeles Times (including an appearance on the cover of Image Magazine); Associated Press; Cosmopolitan; V Magazine; OUT Magazine; and the first-ever social-first cover of InStyle. KATSEYE performed on “Good Morning America,” “GMA3” and “The Kelly Clarkson Show.”

The group was nominated for two 2025 iHeartRadio Music Awards and gave a stunning performance at the MAMA Awards. The Los Angeles Times observed, “they blew everyone away with their commanding stage presence and on-point, intricate and athletic prowess.” Billboard said, “KATSEYE slayed a high-flying rendition of their tracks ‘Debut’ and ‘Touch’ in a special collaboration with the Los Angeles Rams Cheerleaders squad.” View the performance HERE. KATSEYE stars in Fendi’s new “Fendi For Yourself” global digital campaign and Pepsi has tapped “Debut” for a new ad campaign.

KATSEYE continues to create a prismatic, mercurial and potent pop sound that thrives in the tension between softness and strength, polish and raw power, precision and rebellion — always shining, always evolving, as “Gnarly” affirms.

MAROON 5 RETURNS WITH NEW SINGLE “PRICELESS” FT. LISA of Blackpink via 360 MAGAZINE.

Maroon 5 + Lisa – Priceless

“PRICELESS” Brings Together Two Global Pop Stars Whose Voices Are Known & Loved by Generations of Fans Around the World

POP-ROCK MAINSTAYS PREPPING NEW 2025 ALBUM & WORLD TOUR

Three-time GRAMMY Award-winning multi-platinum band Maroon 5 have linked up with world renowned rapper, singer, dancer, actor, and style icon LISA to debut an infectious new single “PRICELESS,” out today via 222/Interscope Records.

The song also notably marks the first time Maroon 5 has collaborated with a K-pop artist. In addition to the debut of their new single, the music video for “PRICELESS” has premiered today. Directed by Aerin Moreno (Tate McRae, Tyla), the playful and stylish clip was shot in downtown Los Angeles on 35mm film and visually gives a nod to the film Mr. & Mrs. Smith.

WATCH “PRICELESS” 

LISTEN TO “PRICELESS”

“PRICELESS” is a prelude into Maroon 5’s upcoming eighth studio album, of which details will be formally announced soon. On the album, the band are returning to their roots with their new music while subtly expanding their sound.

Of their upcoming album release and new single, Adam Levine said, “It’s just a guitar-based song which we haven’t really done in so long. It happened first for us while we were recording the album. I think it’s just the purest and we are so happy to have LISA on it. The guitar intro is literally me playing into an audio message on my iPhone with an unplugged guitar. I actually got a little emotional recording ‘cause it was sort of reconnecting to our roots, which a lot of our fans have been saying ‘hey we want to hear that sound again.’ It’s been like over 20 years so I think it’s time for that to return.” 

Added James Valentine, “I got super emotional when Adam sent me the original demo of ‘PRICELESS’ because for me the sound represents Maroon 5’s earlier days. I joined the band in 2001 so when I was seeing them play in 2000, ‘PRICELESS’ gave me the same sort of excitement from the chords to overall vibe. I was super stoked on it and it established the writing and sound for our upcoming album.” 

In addition to their new music, Maroon 5 are also preparing to announce an upcoming world tour. The US dates follow an extended residency at Las Vegas’ Dolby Live at Park MGM, which has now reached 40 total performances.

Oakley MUZM Straight Jacket 9

Over two decades ago, the Straight Jacket defined an era of Oakley—bold, defiant, and made for those who refused to follow. It shattered the boundaries of sport, infiltrating culture through film, TV, and the streets, while being worn by the legends who set the blueprint. Now, as Oakley celebrates 50 years of defying convention, the limited-edition Oakley® MUZM Straight Jacket 99 returns — handpicked from the archives and reimagined for a new generation of rule-breakers. 

Led by Trinity Rodman, professional soccer player and Team Oakley athlete, who is forging a new legacy, the MUZM Straight Jacket 99 captures the bold, fearless spirit that made Oakley a cultural icon. The Straight Jacket was made for those who understand that style isn’t dictated—it’s self-defined. When the original frames dropped, Oakley didn’t hold back: if you need the world to tell you how to look, this isn’t your frame. This is eyewear for those who don’t ask, don’t wait, and definitely don’t need the world’s opinion. 

A member of the Jacket family—a collection of eyewear that fits the face like apparel fits your body—the design connects past and future, revamping the second generation of Straight Jacket down to the classic flame detailing. Featuring the same sporty, aggressive look that was signature to Oakley’s design language in the ’90s and early 2000s, the lightweight O Matter™ frame arrives in a new, unprecedented colorway—complete with silver flames across the frame and temples, no-slip Unobtainium® earsocks for a secure fit, and Prizm™ Black lenses made to enhance color and contrast. 

Dare to defy with the MUZM Straight Jacket 99, available starting April 30 on Oakley.com and at select Oakley stores and partners worldwide.

Joe Jonas – Heart By Heart

Gearing up for a bold creative era, GRAMMY® Award-nominated singer, songwriter, actor, producer, and global superstar Joe Jonas unveils his new single “Heart By Heart” out today—listen HERE. “Heart By Heart” paves the way for his forthcoming solo album Music For People Who Believe In Love on May 23rd via Republic Records. Pre-order / pre-save HERE.
 
Co-written with Lewis Capaldi, Savan [The Weeknd, Ariana Grande], Oscar Holter [DNCE, The Weeknd], and Max Gsus [Kim Petras, Tove Lo], “Heart By Heart” layers acoustic guitar and glistening keys over a bouncy beat. Against this sonic backdrop, Joe’s expansive range immediately captivates as he taps into raw emotion and delivers the song’s nostalgic lyrics with a palpable sense of longing. As the refrain takes hold, he sings, “Well if he don’t ever light your spark, remember I know your heart by heart…Just remember I will always remember.”
 
Yesterday, Joe and Heineken® announced a new collaboration with an exclusive event in New York City, where Joe debuted his new single “Heart By Heart” for the very first time in front of the offline crowd, instead of using digital channels. The performance was part of Heineken’s new #SocialOffSocials campaign, which aims to demonstrate that the best way to disconnect from the sometimes-overwhelming world of social media is to connect in real life. Joe also filmed part of his forthcoming music video at the event—stay tuned for its official premiere.
 
Joe initially kicked off his solo chapter with his singles “Work It Out” and “What This Could Be.” The latter was co-written by Joe alongside GRAMMY® Award-winning hitmaker Dan Nigro [Olivia Rodrigo, Chappell Roan] and GRAMMY® Award-nominated singer-songwriter Feist. The tracks received critical praise from the likes of Rolling Stone, Variety, Entertainment Weekly, UPROXX, Grammy.com, and more, with Billboard proclaiming, “Jonas lands on a shimmery pop sound that synthesizes a wide array of influences, from garage-rock to alt-pop to ’90s country, while singing about navigating life’s uncertainties and finding gratitude amid loss.” Joe also worked alongside an exciting list of collaborators on the project, including Alexander 23, MUNA’s Josette Maskin, Feist, Dan Nigro, Justin Tranter, Jason Evigan, Tommy English, and Joel Little, with more collaborators and features to be revealed soon.
 
At the same time, Joe’s voice has continued to resound across culture. He notably joined forces with Latin GRAMMY®Award-winning phenomenon Ela Taubert on “¿Cómo Pasó? Con Joe Jonas,” which exploded with over 31 million Spotify streams and 18 million YouTube views. They also delivered a seismic performance of the track at the 2024 Latin GRAMMY® Awards. Plus, he teamed up with rising superstar Alex Warren on a duet version of his breakthrough smash “Burning Down” as well as appeared on buzzing country phenomenon Ashley Cooke’s “All I Forgot.”
 
Stay tuned for Music For People Who Believe In Love, out May 23rd.
