SPECIAL SAUCE

Over Memorial Day Weekend, Columbia star The Kid LAROI kicked off his UTA-booked End of the World Tour, his first global headlining trek, in Australia. Some 86k tickets have been sold Down Under. It coincides with a deal with McDonald’s brokered by UTA’s Brand Partnerships division, which prompted the young star to ask manager Scooter Braun what he liked to order from the Golden Arches. “Oh, I usually go with the Happy Meal,” replied Scooter, with whom The Kid recently reunited. “You know—herbed sea bream with a sunchoke coulis, dusted with saffron powder and ideally paired with a ’95 Montrachet.” Meanwhile, OBB Media’s Michael Ratner (second from left) and UTA partner/agent Mike G (r) plotted to share some fries.
