TikTok Hits Cannes, Where a U.S. Ban Seems a Distant Dream
Just six months ago, TikTok's future in the United States looked doomed. The Supreme Court had upheld a federal law that called for it to be sold from its Chinese owner, ByteDance, or face a ban. It even went dark for half a day. But this week on the French Riviera, the specter of TikTok's American demise seemed like a distant fever dream. The company — which remains under the same Chinese ownership — set up shop at the swanky Carlton Hotel during the annual Cannes Lions advertising festival, with a space it dubbed 'TikTok Garden,' where employees held court with marketers, creators and its fans. Shou Chew, TikTok's chief executive, met with creators who posted about the meetings at the hotel, where rooms in the summer often start at 1,000 euros ($1,150) per night. TikTok also paid to bring some of its most popular creators to Cannes for the week, including @ReesaTeesa, whose relationship drama shared on TikTok is now being made into a TV show, and a comedian who goes by @AdamW. Creators spoke on panels and mingled with enthusiastic fans, who lined up nightly for TikTok's evening 'Frosé Soirées.' Other TikTok executives, including its advertising team leaders, met with marketers, played pickleball with at least one creator and took a boat to a restaurant with employees from an influencer agency. The activities underscore TikTok's careful efforts to outmaneuver Washington while maintaining its appeal to advertisers, creators and its more than 1 billion global users. President Trump on Thursday said he had signed an executive order granting the company another 90 days — to mid-September — to find a new owner to comply with a federal law that requires the company to change its ownership structure to resolve national security concerns. The company, which was also in Cannes last month as an official partner of the town's famous film festival, has maintained a high-profile presence at cultural and industry events in the face of intense political upheaval. Nearly two weeks after President Joseph R. Biden Jr. signed the law banning TikTok last year, Mr. Chew attended the Met Gala as a co-chair. Want all of The Times? Subscribe.

NYC comedian settles home disputes on viral 'Roommate Court'
Here comes the judge. Michael Abber may be new to the Big Apple, but there's one thing the West Coast native figured out right away — living in such close proximity can take its toll on a New Yorker's nerves, and living with roommates even more so. Now, the clever comedian is doing something to make life easier for his fellow citizens — solving spats between clashing cohabitants on the smash-hit social media show, 'Roommate Court.' 7 Abber travels across the boroughs, making peace between quarreling cohabitees on 'Roommate Court.' Stefano Giovannini 'A lot of people living together in New York City, God bless them, do not have enough space to get along. That's a luxury,' Abber, 27, told The Post. Of course, his court is not a real one. And Abber is not a literal judge — although the jokester tells The Post he did take the practice LSATs, and was awarded 'MVP' status in a high school mock trial thanks to his over-the-top theatrics. Instead, his new series, from Gymnasium, a short-form video production company, sees the wannabe Wapner hand down his rulings over kooky, yet contentious disputes in less than three minutes. With a governing style that's a mix between Judge Judith 'Judy' Sheindlin's no-nonsense slant and TV life coach Iyanla Vanzant's compassionate approach, the mediating millennial transforms the living rooms of the feuding friends into makeshift courtrooms. 7 The professional comic carries the courtroom show — literally — toting his podiums and microphone to each address in need of his unique help. Stefano Giovannini Lugging his 'plaintiff' and 'defendant' podiums into their humble abodes, the funny man — armed with a handheld microphone rather than a gavel — permits both parties to make their arguments before delivering his decree. 'Production and I always make sure the roommates actually have conflicts. I think it's only fun if it's real,' said Abber, who refrains from knowing anything about the people or their issues until showtime. 'The comedy of this comes from viewers identifying with the drama — and my reactions are real.' 'The roommates have to successfully stun me with their problems, which, so far, they absolutely have.' 7 In just over a month since 'Roommate Court' made its online debut, the show has amassed over 10,000 social media followers. @roommatecourt Luckily for the mediator, there's no shortage of in-house squabbles, especially in NYC, where Gen Zers are paying $2,100 a month to bunk with 23 roomies, and older Baby Boomers are sharing a roof as 'boom-mates' to beat rent inflation. To preside over each suit, Abber doesn't suit up in a classic jurist's robe. The faux official, instead, dons what he calls a 'David Byrne-meets-public defender' look, a distinguished yet slightly disheveled uniform comprised of a thrifted gray suit, a white collared shirt and crimson red necktie. Since making its virtual debut in May, 'Roommate Court' has amassed over 10,000 TikTok followers, attracting online audiences with curious cases such as the 'Throuple from Hell (Bushwick)' and the 'Cat Daddy Conflict.' The throuple found themselves at odds when one roommate, Maisie, began dating the other roommate Dennis's ex-girlfriend Anna, who was also their roommate. The trio agreed to keep their awkward current living arrangement — in exchange for burning Maisie's prized possession. As for the cat conundrum, the platonic foursome couldn't decide who should have guardianship over Loosie, a stray kitten who was already living in their apartment when they moved into the shared space. 7 The Angeleno moved to NYC in 2021, hoping to hit it big in the world of comedy. Stefano Giovannini 'All four of the guys wanted custody over Loosie,' Abber laughed. 'But, believe me, none of them were capable of caring for her on their own.' As a resolution to their feline feud, he made the men put aside their differences and clean out the kitty's poop-filled litter box as a unit. 'I am in the business of finding the cheapest possible solution that will stand for the longest possible time,' said Abber. 'It's kind of like the public healthcare of decision-making.' Beefing buddies Kaden Robinson and Jake 'Cleo' Besser were another recent success story. The troubled twosome, recent Fashion Institute of Technology grads living with three other guys above a Greek restaurant in Bushwick, recently tapped Abber to remedy their fight over a rare Tyler, the Creator vinyl. 7 Kaden Robinson (left) and Jake 'Cleo' Besser called Abber after a spat over a personal effects swap. Stefano Giovannini 'Cleo and I made a deal that I'd trade him a Planet of the Apes T-shirt and A$AP Worldwide hat for his Tyler, the Creator 'Cherry Bomb' vinyl, which is a record store exclusive,' Robinson, 23, a fashion buyer, told The Post. 'We shook on it.' But when Besser learned that the record had appreciated in value, skyrocketing up to $350, he wanted to renege on the deal. 7 Abber helped Robinson and Besser find peace and harmony after the pair began bumping heads. Stefano Giovannini 'I looked up its value and was like, 'Wait, this isn't a fair trade.' I felt misled,' said Besser, 21, a fashion and music video creative director. 'I was like, 'We gotta take it to court.'' The troubled twosome, along with their roommate Ben, let Abber orchestrate a more even swap, permitting Besser to take one of Robinson's beloved golf clubs. 'It was great,' said Besser. '[Abber] was a great judge and it was good to get an outside perspective and unbiased opinion — 'Roommate Court' is one of those 'only in New York' kind of things.' 7 Abber told The Post that he settles all sorts of roommate issues, from folks leaving dirty dishes in the sink, to controversial matters of the heart. Stefano Giovannini And Abber, a roommate himself, agrees. 'If I leave this world and people living together in New York City are doing their own dishes and putting their garbage in the trash can,' he said, 'I'll have fulfilled my purpose.'
