Caesar salad, probably: “What am I, chopped lettuce?” This July 4, Caesar salad turned 100 years old. Unfortunately, a lot of Americans were pretty preoccupied with a different birthday. As always, many celebrities in the U.S. took to social media to share posts of their Independence Day festivities, including parties, parades … and yes, promo posts for their new or upcoming projects. (Meanwhile, the U.K. was preoccupied with a couple other historic dates: an election and the Beckhams’ wedding anniversary.) Below, here’s what Kesha, Jennifer Lopez, Danny Trejo, Megan Thee Stallion, and more stars were up to over this holiday. Spoiler alert: salad didn’t get nearly enough shoutouts.
As usual, there was a huge party in the Hamptons.
Tom Brady, Quavo, Kim Kardashian, Druski, and Emily Ratajkowski were among the celebs who followed the all-white dress code at Michael Rubin’s annual Fourth of July party in the Hamptons. We can only hope that Drake had the sense to avoid fellow guest Megan Thee Stallion.
Before Rubin’s party, Travis Scott, Damar Hamlin, Grant Williams, Micah Parsons, Odell Beckham Jr., and more also hit the beach to play football.
Kesha went for a “Joyride.”
Of course she released her first independent single since leaving Dr. Luke’s label on Independence Day.
JLo stopped to smell the flowers.
Jennifer Lopez reportedly spent the holiday apart from Ben Affleck. But despite the divorce rumors, her ring is still on display in these floral photos.
Katy Perry did her best Rosie the Riveter impression.
She promoted her upcoming single “Woman’s World” with a photo that was a little reminiscent of Rosie, just without any sleeves to roll up.
Kendrick Lamar dragged that Canadian again.

Trejo was seen apparently trying to throw a punch — and a camping chair — after someone aimed a water balloon at his car during a parade.

David Beckham and Posh Spice aren’t Americans, but July 4 is still a special day for them — this year, it marked their 25th wedding anniversary.
