VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. (WAVY) — Singer and songwriter Pharrell Williams was in his hometown of Virginia Beach Friday night to meet fans at a new pop-up shop.
The pop-up shop opened Friday and carries his brand, Virginia, as well as the brand-new Adidas Adistar Jellyfish.
“It’s just so exciting and refreshing to see someone from Virginia to really represent us so well,” said fan Shareese Johnson. “I saw his Instagram, and he was like, he’s gonna pop out 10/10, so I’m all excited. Everybody came here to see the shoes, but honestly, I just came here to see Pharrell.”
The Virginia brand encompasses all kinds of items, including shirts and souvenirs, which are all on display for shoppers to check out. But the big-ticket item are the new shoes, which are available in two new colorways for the first time and retail for $300.
“I support anybody from Virginia number one, but Pharrell. I’ve loved him as an artist since I was a child, so I’m definitely a big fan of his,” said fan Amari Bacot.
The pop-up shop is located at 332 20th Street, Suite 130, right next to Atlantic Park.
Bacot said she was excited to see Pharrell because of how he continues to support the Commonwealth.
“Pharrell, he reps Virginia harder than anybody,” Bacot said. “It’s really nice, because we’re not a super big state, so it’s nice to have such a big name celebrity represent for Virginia.”
The pop-up will be open from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday.
