Michael Rubin’s Fourth of July white party isn’t just a party.
It’s a place where star athletes, past and present, celebrities and business honchos can let their guard down, mix and mingle — and potentially forge relationships in business and beyond.
US Weekly reported that is where Tom Brady met his new gal pal, SI model Brooks Nader.
The Hall of Fame quarterback is not alone.
Sources told The Post that Cavaliers star Donovan Mitchell and Grammy-winning singer Coco Jones met last year at the white party, and began dating, adding that they’re still together.
The pair has yet to address the dating buzz.
And that wasn’t the only relationship to come out of the white party.
Clippers center Mo Bamba met his now significant other at the white party in 2022, a source told The Post.
The 26-year-old attended this year’s bash at Rubin’s $50 million oceanfront home in Bridgehampton.
This year’s star-studded event attracted stars such as Brady, Kim Kardashian, Jay-Z, Odell Beckham Jr., Olivia Dunne, Tobey Maguire and more.
“We work really hard to bring all types of people from different backgrounds together,” Rubin told The Post while he prepared to host a wrap-up dinner with current and former pro athletes who spent the past several days with Fanatics as part of their “Athlete Immersion Program” — including Bamba and the Rangers’ Jacob Trouba and Will Cuylle.
“The biggest thing I heard coming out of this year’s party from most people who’ve been here all four years, is this was the best year yet.
“The group of people that we bring together, it’s, you know, you go from like business CEOs [from Uber, Verizon and more] …You have these big business people, but then you get the great athletes and celebrities and great business things and relationships coming out of it.”
Rubin’s annual Fourth of July bash is one of the most exclusive tickets, and only 350-400 people receive an invite. This year’s invitation included a pair of the Travis Scott x Air Jordan 1 sneakers.
The bottom line is that everyone can’t handle a 13-hour party.
“There’s so many people who I love, but we just don’t have the room because it’s a physical space restriction,” Rubin said. “And nobody from Fanatics is there. It’s personal thing and not a work thing … You’re going to have people that just don’t make sense to bring them again.
“They weren’t the value you thought. They couldn’t have a 13-hour party. It’s a 13-hour party. It starts at 5:30, [pm] goes until 6 o’clock in the morning. You gotta train for that. You gotta be built for that.
“I have friends — [Cowboys linebacker] Micah Parsons is always like, ‘I’m training for this baby! My body’s gotta be ready for this.’ You’re in a pretty difficult situation, because no matter what, I have so many people who I love, but I wish I could make space physically.
“It’s complicated and hard. And the real answer is: we can’t fit everyone, because the party is on four parts of my house. It starts on the deck with cocktails, then goes downstairs for dinner, then goes to the roof for the first set of shows and the fireworks and then goes to the club, which is my tennis court turned into a nightclub. On the roof, you can only fit 350-400 people max.”
Wizards forward Kyle Kuzma and model girlfriend Winnie Harlow along with Beckham shut down the party at 6 a.m. this year, a source told The Post.
Other couples at this year’s white party included Dolphins wideout Braxton Berrios and his girlfriend, influencer Alix Earle, Suns guard Bradley Beal and wife Kamiah Adams and actress Megan Fox and musician Machine Gun Kelly.
Most of the aforementioned stars are set to attend Rubin’ first-ever Fanatics Fest in NYC next month.
