JJ Combs, the Pharmacist Building a Smarter High

6 days ago | papermag.com | Jon Stojan

JJ Combs never set out to join the cannabis industry. He certainly didn’t imagine himself leading it. A board-certified pharmacist with more than 15 years in the cannabis industry. Combs built his career around the careful, calculated world of traditional medicine. But that background is exactly what makes his next chapter so compelling.
Alesso on the Cover of PAPER Magazine

Just as perfumers have been known to insure their noses for millions of dollars, a musician’s ears are their most prized possession. For a DJ, hearing is crucial for measuring every drop, every build-up, every blend. It’s hard to imagine the panic Alesso felt, then, when he woke up one morning to an unrelenting, high-pitched ringing in his ears at a “10 out of 10” on the volume scale.

Dr. Hani Sinno on Ultrasonic Rhinoplasty

Feb 12, 2025 | papermag.com | Jon Stojan

Ultrasonic rhinoplasty, commonly referred to as piezo rhinoplasty, represents a significant advancement in nasal surgery methods. It employs ultrasonic waves to meticulously reshape nasal bones, offering more enhanced precision than traditional approaches. Unlike conventional rhinoplasty, which often involves breaking bones, piezo rhinoplasty allows surgeons to sculpt the nasal structure without such invasive measures.
PAPER Hosts Pre-NYFW Dinner With Cohart at Soho Grand

Sep 6, 2024 | papermag.com | Justin Moran

Before the madness of New York Fashion Week kicked off, PAPER hosted a special dinner in collaboration with art marketplace Cohart (our pre-Coachella meal was iconic). This marks the beginning of our ongoing partnership, where we will curate artists to launch their work on the Cohart platform in a series of drops throughout the year. Cohart gifted original art for all the guests, including individual works from local Cohart artists Mary Royall Wilgis and Arlina Cai.
Bravo Fashion Roundup: Pickleball 'Challengers'

Aug 29, 2024 | papermag.com | Joan Summers

This is So Chic, Very Chic, PAPER’s examination of Bravo’s sprawling cohort of fashion obsessives. From haute couture to TJ Maxx, they’ve literally worn it all. Sometimes they stunt, sometimes they turn the look, and sometimes they burn holes in retinas my ophthalmologist says might never heal. Has anyone seen the movie Challengers? I thought it was kinda neat. Briefly, it is a movie about two men who kiss because of a girl, and also because they love each other, which to them is the same as hate.

Jul 11, 2024 | papermag.com | Tobias Hess

River Moon and LSDXOXO are NYC staples. Wait, are they? When I referred to River Moon as a “NYC it-girl” last week in PAPER’s LadyLand write-up, it inspired a jubilant response on X. “Omg paper magazine called me an NYC it-girl!” River wrote. “I haven't lived in this city in 5 years. Period!!!!!!!!!!!!” Okay, so I may be guilty of spreading some light misinformation, but who can blame me when the Berlin-based DJ, producer, artist and meme scholar can be seen gracing NYC stages year-round?
