Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers are the inspiration behind a new capsule collection from John Varvatos.
The Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers by John Varvatos collection is in celebration of 50 years of Petty’s music. According to the company’s website, it brings together “luxury menswear and rock-inspired style.” It notes the collection “honors Tom’s legacy, channeling the attitude and authenticity Petty brought to the stage with the rebellious craftsmanship of John Varvatos.”
The collection includes three limited-edition numbered pieces: a Western yoke jacket, a suede fringe jacket and embroidered boot cut jeans. There’s also a leopard jacquard button-down shirt, a button-down shirt with a Heartbreaker pattern, two scarves, suede boots and two Tom Petty T-shirts, one embroidered and one with Tom Petty performance artwork.
Items in the collection range in price from $198 for the T-shirts to about $3,500 for the suede fringe jacket. All items are now available at JohnVarvatos.com.
This isn’t the first time John Varvatos has released a collection inspired by a rock star. In 2023, the company launched a limited-edition David Bowie-inspired capsule collection, and in 2019 it released one inspired by Led Zeppelin.
Jelly Roll’s mom sat in the front row Tuesday night as her son was inducted as a member of the Grand Ole Opry. It was her first time seeing him play the prestigious stage.
Wearing a cross that belonged to Johnny Cash, Jelly kicked off the night performing his hits “Liar,” “Need a Favor,” “I Am Not Okay,” “Hard Fought Hallelujah” and “Son of a Sinner” with ERNEST.
CMA and ACM entertainer of the year Lainey Wilson then came on to do the official honors.
“Country music has always been about telling stories, the good, the bad, the messy; it’s about redemption, and tonight we are welcoming a man who has never been afraid to tell the truth about his life,” she said. “He turned pain into purpose, mistakes into music, and somehow managed to make millions of people feel like they are a little less alone.”
Jelly Roll reflected on how his life has changed as he accepted the trophy that signifies Opry membership.
“To take a convicted felon from Music City who found country music because I’m from Nashville, and you take that kid who’s been in the local juvenile and local county jail, and you bring him here and give him Grammys, awards and Platinum plaques, and then you make him a member of the most prestigious group of the Grand Ole Opry,” he said. “Every word of that sounded like I’m telling you a lot about myself, but that is a story only God could be the author of. Some stories only God can write.”
Lainey and Jelly closed the show with their hit “Save Me” after a night that included appearances by Craig Morgan and comedian Leanne Morgan.

In other INXS news … The band is nominated for the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame this year, and INXS bassist Garry Gary Beers has shared his reaction to the news via social media.
“I’ve always downplayed the importance of this to me for a few reasons- the main being that there were always other artists more deserving etc etc,” he wrote on Instagram. “So time has passed and here’s the nomination and I have to say I’m pretty proud of us Aussie boys from the Northern Beaches getting nominated to be in such amazing company.” He then shared the link for the Rock Hall fan vote.
Lola Young covers Rolling Stone’s Future of Music issue (David LaChapelle)
Lola Young covers the new issue of Rolling Stone, and in her story, she opens up about the 2025 incident that sent her to rehab for what she hopes will be the last time.
“It was sad that I had to do that,” she says of her trip to treatment after she collapsed Sept. 27 at New York’s All Things Go festival. “What else was I going to do, die?” she cotinues. “That was the reality of where my addiction was heading.”
Prior to her collapse, Lola had already been in treatment in 2025. A few months later, she returned to the spotlight to promote her album I’m Only F****** Myself, and as she got caught up in doing promo, she started to backslide.
“You want to say yes to everything because everything’s on the table, but then you also have to balance that with your mental health,” Lola tells Rolling Stone. But she didn’t, and that led to her collapse. In rehab, she was on lockdown for two months but received texts, emails and support from Lady Gaga, Elton John, Katy Perry and Charli XCX.
Since leaving rehab — which, unlike past experiences, was focused on therapy as well as the treatment of addiction — she’s been attending AA meetings and has a sponsor, she tells Rolling Stone. She’s also watched the video of her collapse “once or twice.”
“I am very grateful that it happened because it was, what do you call that? Like, a breaking point which allowed me to then be able to be here today,” she says. “[It] allowed me to be better for my fans, better for the future, and better for myself.”

Korn frontman Jonathan Davis will serve as the grand marshal for the upcoming Pennzoil 400 NASCAR race, taking place Sunday at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.
The “Freak on a Leash” rocker will deliver, as a press release puts it, “the most anticipated words in motorsports,” presumably referring to, “Drivers, start your engines.”
“Our concerts are loud, fast, and full of chaos, which sounds a lot like a NASCAR race,” Davis says. “I’m excited to jump into that world and soak up the energy of the track in Las Vegas.”
Davis will stick around in Sin City following the race for Korn’s headlining set at Vegas’ Sick New World festival, taking place April 25. System of a Down will headline as well.
