THIS HITS PHOTO GALLERY IS SLATHERED IN SAUCE

We get it: You’ve got charred, judiciously seasoned meats (or, sure, veggies) on your mind. That cooler full of artfully curated craft beers is singing its siren song. A shoebox full of pre-rolls and several seasons’ worth of Below Decks await your somewhat fuzzy attention.

But allow us to add a little something to your holiday-weekend menu: This flame-broiled cornucopia of blazing-hot industry pics, co-starring such luminaries as Travis Scott, Chappell Roan, Jarred Arfa, Sabrina Carpenter, Gillian Zucker, Neil Jacobson, coastal Garys and more. They’ll pair beautifully with a sunny idyll and your favorite intoxicants.

A double shot of plaques for Island's Sabrina Carpenter, who's having a Sweet moment in the spotlight we suspect will be anything but Short.

Inglewood Ball-ers Steve Ballmer and Halo Sports CEO and Clippers President of Operations Gillian Zucker, pictured—as well as GM, Kia Forum, and Intuit Dome VP Becky Colwell—are the talk of the town after the Dome's flashy opening. Unfortunately, Clippers fanatic Lenny Beer won't stop saying, "I'm into it."

Cactus Jack/Epic star Travis Scott and trusted advisor Larry Jackson have mastered the art of disruption or, as some folks refer to it, selling a shitload of records.

Hanging outside the "Pink Pony Club," hitmaking duo Chappell Roan and Dan Nigro celebrate the producer's ASCAP Pop Songwriter of the Year award.

It's never too early to get started in talent representation. Billy Joel holds a four-year-old Jarred Arfa, who is now EVP, global head of Music at IAG, and still representing the "Piano Man."

U.K. Nostalgia: WMG brats Charli xcx with former Recorded Music boss Max Lousada and Dua Lipa.

Republic's Lucas Romeo, Gary Spangler and Brett Dumler with iHeart's Beata in Nashville. "Please, Please, Please" find our buddies some hot chicken.

Hallwood's Neil Jacobson and ICLG's Gary Kelly keep the green in their sight—on and off the golf course. Neil's next tee-off: inking a deal for hot free agent 2hollis.

Secret agent or legal eagle Peter Lewit?
