That was supposed to be Cook's moment and it hit all the right notes: Innovation in a faltering category, an iconic location (the same place Steve Jobs introduced the MacBook 22011 years earlier), and a little showmanship with a specially-constructed giant white box to demonstrate the new wearable gear.

Managed by the city's Wien Museum, it was substantially renovated and spiffed up in 2006 (timed to the 250th anniversary of Mozart's birth) to emulate a model of modern exhibition showmanship: A relatively small nub of historical authenticity is padded out with slick, somewhat Disneyfied interpretive displays and audiovisual installations.

Though she'd had hits and sold millions, Pink was still opening for Justin Timberlake well into her career; she pointed to an airborne, water-soaked 2010 Grammys performance of the non-single ballad "Glitter in the Air" as a turning point, when people woke up to her strong voice and showmanship.

He has a flair for showmanship — he once tried to attract buyers for a new development by offering a free Bentley with every apartment — and his best customers tend to be rich outsiders who are trying to buy their way into the elite, like moneyed Iranians and well-off Indians.

You can delude yourself to an immense degree, and there are some people who are fabulously talented at the sales and the showmanship that go with the company so they can sort of paper over a bad product for longer than they should, but ultimately you cannot fool nature there.

Mr. Baum, against all odds, made the Newarker, as it was named, a highly successful destination restaurant, relying on a sense of showmanship that bestowed diners with a lobster-and-a-half, billed as a three-clawed lobster, enormous oysters that were served with knife and fork, and desserts enlivened with sparklers.

The outsize personalities of Billie Eilish, Megan Thee Stallion and Lil Nas X, photographed by Arielle Bobb-Willis, are magnified by the vibrant greens, reds and yellows with which they were shot, reflecting the unique energy and showmanship that has catapulted each of these artists to the upper echelons of pop today.

For me, that means being able to create for myself an intimate moment in the kitchen (or on a boat, if that's where I happen to be); it means finding a quiet space to cook and properly engage; it means preferring the real show (sitting down for a delicious meal) over the showmanship.

With his license to practice briefly suspended, his days consumed largely by community service and his mind plagued with guilt over revealing his brother's mental illness in court, Jimmy tapped into his natural showmanship to start a fly-by-night ad agency for local businesses under his future nom de guerre, Saul Goodman.

I loved that instead of the linear narrative designed to developing pianistic skills — starting with Czerny études and moving ever upward toward grotesque Lisztian showmanship — the choral tradition operated in a series of interlocking cycles based on the liturgical year, with the music and the musicians playing a role in a larger drama.

But in that episode and several others since the 1980s, Mr. Trump's navigation of Washington's corridors of power appears all too familiar in hindsight — fusing showmanship, a reductive approach to ethnicity, shape-shifting policy rationales and gleeful name-dropping into the political currency required to get what he wanted, or at least make headlines trying.

As the recipient of this year's Video Vanguard Award, J. Lo was on hand to perform a medley of some of her greatest hits, and though she started a little shaky with "Waiting for Tonight," she soon found her groove and brought out the showmanship that garnered her the honor in the first place.

But Ailes's impact on the American political landscape is hard to underestimate; as Bloom's film Divide and Conquer: The Story of Roger Ailes shows, it was his media expertise, showmanship, and proclivity for pushing hype and fear that in many ways paved the road for Trumpism and the current state of the Republican Party.

Lastly, the lucky few will descend upon Old Billingsgate Market for a whole different type of showmanship: the supermodel Natalia Vodianova's Fund Fair, a £1,000-a-ticket charity gala for her Naked Heart Foundation, with Karlie Kloss as a co-host and featuring a Dior treasure hunt, a Givenchy tattoo parlor and Dom Pérignon Champagne hoopla.

While I doubt there will be showmanship on that level at the summit with Kim Jong Un, I am confident great thought is being given to that initial first impression and image – and will be carefully crafted in a way to benefit our president and give him an upper hand before the first handshake even takes place.

Showmanship and talent aside, it's insanely hard to ignore the power that comes with a crowd of nearly 20,000 people screaming "You can't stop me loving myself" at the top of their lungs as the chorus of "IDOL," the star single of Love Yourself: Answer is performed by the boys in their prince-like jackets following furious choreography.

|
But remember that he triumphed over a talented, 17-person Republican field in debate after debate to win the primary — one-on-one contests are unique, it's true, but there was no particular reason to think Trump couldn't use his bullying, blustering showmanship to take over the stage and expose Clinton as inauthentic and out of touch.

With scant moments of applause from people who apparently hate breathable oxygen and a moderate climate, Trump's signature, specious "America first" showmanship combined with shameless climate denial, ludicrous falsehoods about the language of Paris and the American economy, and, most shockingly, a brazen and spiteful attempt to paint all 195 other countries as lazy, loathsome burdens.

John Waters is William Castle In the latest bit of stunt casting for his FX miniseries "Feud: Bette and Joan," series creator Ryan Murphy gave the "Pink Flamingos" cult director a cameo role he's been preparing for since childhood: He plays his idol William Castle, the gimmick king of 1950s B-movie showmanship, whose promotional stunts remain legendary.

She's been extremely funny in a dizzying number of ways: quick online character work ("art wife" but "workout mom" should be enough evidence to give her an IFC sketch show), podcasts, her weekly show at Club Cumming, but her finest showcase so far is her cabaret act where she plays a preposterously cocky chanteuse with go-for-broke showmanship.

For instance, of the impending deadline on negotiations with Iran, Mr. Trump twisted the phrase to suit his penchant for showmanship: "Nobody knows what I'm going to do on the 12th, although, Mr. President, you have a pretty good idea — but we'll see," he said during a meeting last week with President Emmanuel Macron of France.

On the subject of showmanship, there were houses that simply let the stones do the talking; Moussaieff, with its sorbet-hued designs in golf-ball-size rocks, and Nirav Modi, the Mumbai-based designer, who produced an Electric Green ring with a rare Tanzanian kornerupine at the heart of a dome-like silhouette, surrounded by clusters of white diamonds.

Unlike a mogul in an industry that thrives on showmanship, on calling a competitor's bluff before he calls yours, and on putting up buildings taller and gaudier than those of one's rivals, judges inhabit a world of nuance and constraint where every word carries weight and wiping the slate clean of the past is almost never an option.

"The core style of marching band that you find at predominantly white universities is very much in the vein of military showmanship, where there's harsh angles and limited movements," said William Lewis, the author of "Marching to the Beat of a Different Drum: Performance Traditions of Historically Black College and University Marching Bands," in a telephone interview.

There is a lot of living in the past in Japanese MMA, and much of that is summed up by the two fifty year old fighters booked into the losing side of squash matches on the cards, but when RIZIN did real MMA with PRIDE showmanship, it was some of the best fun to be had all year.

The crowd at Secret Project was more game to Iceage's loose approach to showmanship but when the singer of one of the opening bands threw, full force, a weighted mic stand into the sold out crowd, it was clear that the local punx were still wrestling with the tensions of new Williamsburg scum's newfound appreciation of d-beat and runic conflict.

Mr. Trump's whirlwind day in Washington — part of his effort to demonstrate that he is running a serious presidential campaign — took him from an imposing law firm to a news conference at a hotel he is building here to a much-anticipated policy speech before a pro-Israel group, all with the Manhattan businessman's characteristic mix of panache, policy and showmanship.

He may wander around the stage like a bored teenager browsing a bookstore, but he has the lighting and fog machines to make his silhouette look cool, and he'll catch bursts of energy that hint at showmanship, much as his songs have flashes of brilliance that hint at something that could be truly spectacular in more practiced or ambitious hands.

This effort was reinforced by the opening night community celebration, which featured playful local touches like Faygo pop and a performance by rising local star Tunde Olanrian, whose dramatic showmanship and inspirational musical message have him poised to break atmosphere and take the country by storm (presumably accompanied, as always, by his two synchronized and utterly deadpan female backup dancers).

She's a singular force in pop's mainstream: Beyonce is powerful and sincere but also enamored of the grounding attachment of family, while on the other end of the spectrum, Katy Perry coats her messages in sugar puff reverie, and Gaga has moved from PVC-and-chicken-wire showmanship to a fibery diet of standards and cabaret, one would imagine in search of the elusive EGOT.

Jurors were transfixed by the courtroom showmanship of the Panthers' odd-couple defenders — the courtly, bald, grandiloquent Theodore and his son, Michael, a newly minted lawyer in his late 20s wearing what was described as a Jewish Afro — defending a black radical as Rosalind Koskoff, on Bastille Day (July 14), sat in the front row of courtroom benches knitting in the spirit of Madame Defarge.

In these remarks, McGreogor reveals an work ethic, training regime, and sense of showmanship along with an earnest desire to provide for his own basic needs—needs which could be viewed as luxuries but when you come from a hardscabble background, which is purely an assumption on my part because the Google image search only explained so much, the spoils of hard work, talent, and skill are hard-won.

What made it fun was the essential spirit of Jackson's canny showmanship reflected in every silvered, patent-leather, vinyl, mirrored, frogged, fringed, sequined and Vegas-ready garment (shown on both men and women; the famous Balmain army is coed.) Mr. Rousteing's was a show that made wearing white socks with your two-tone patent leather brothel creepers suddenly seem cool somehow, while also presenting a compelling case for dressing like a disco ball.

Shine, like Trump, cares primarily about how things look and how they translate on TV. (Shine has been an advocate of Trump's short videos with a message to supporters that are shot on the White House grounds.) Shine's influence on Trump -- a bolstering of the President's natural instincts for the showmanship and performance elements of the job -- hasn't been adequately understood due in large part to the fact that the former Fox exec keeps a very low public profile.

Those spacey tones stirred in me Friday night, as I watched Mavs guard Dennis Smith Jr. throw this one down: A fabulous dunk on its own, for certain, Smith breaks ahead on a turnover, catches a drifty pass from Yogi Farrell, rises up and windmills it the fuck down for the benefit of a New York Knicks crowd that is always more than willing to let out a healthy "OH" for someone going above and beyond the call of duty, showmanship-wise.
