Adam Sandler's "You're My Best Friend" tour coming to NYC
Adam Sandler is heading back to New York City.
The actor and comedian is bringing his 2025 tour to Madison Square Garden on Sept. 15.
It'll be a homecoming, of sorts, for Sandler, who was born in Brooklyn. His family then moved to Manchester, N.H. when he was a child, where he was raised. Sandler later returned to Big Apple and skyrocketed to fame on "Saturday Night Live."
His 2025 "You're My Best Friend" tour includes four shows in the Empire State.
After his stop at the world's most famous arena, he'll head upstate, making stops in Albany on Sept. 16, Syracuse on Sept. 17 and Buffalo on Sept. 21.
New Yorkers may also be interested in some other tour stops that are relatively close by. Sandler will bring his tour to Philadelphia on Sept. 19, as well as to the Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Conn. on Sept. 26.
Tickets for his 30-city tour go on sale Friday via Ticketmaster.
Sandler made a recent stop in the Tri-State Area for an entirely different reason. Back in August, he held an open casting call in New Jersey for "Happy Gilmore 2," which is set for release on Netflix in July.

A New Threads Feature Saves You From Seeing and Posting Spoilers: Here's How It Works
Social media can accidentally spoil a streaming movie or show for those who haven't yet watched it. Threads, the popular social media platform from Meta, now has a new feature that could save you from spoiling your next watch. The new feature allows users to mark media and text posts as spoilers. If it's a photo, the spoiler will then appear blurred in feeds, and text will be grayed out. Clicking on both types makes the spoiler visible. Netflix and Marvel are the first major studios to use the feature on their posts. Meta says the feature is rolling out globally, but we saw it available on Friday. Speaking of spoilers, you may want to stop reading now if you're not logged in to Threads, the embedded plot-spoiling posts in this story may not be blurred. Netflix posted a photo from one of the last scenes of Squid Game's third and final season, with the caption "do not tap until you've finished Squid Game 3." Marvel teased the villain in the new Ironheart series in a post. You won't meet the villain until the last episode. You can stream Ironheart on Disney Plus. We Were Liars on Prime also added a post that uses the new Threads spoiler text feature. We've seen several other updates from Threads this year, including the ability to copy images, thus replacing the need to screenshot. Threads also only recently started testing direct messaging, despite the app being out for around two years. How to use the spoiler feature on Threads Anyone can use the spoiler feature on their posts. All you have to do is highlight what you want to hide, tap and select "mark spoiler." That will blur the text or image you selected for others. This feature doesn't mean you won't see posts about your favorite pop culture and entertainment topics. It lets you choose when you're ready to know more. All it takes is a tap. However, it's worth pointing out that it's up to those who make the post to decide if they mark something as a spoiler. So spoilers could abound until most people adopt the feature. Even still, it's good to see a feature that allows you to stay in the loop without spoiling major plot points along the way.

Anna Wintour is stepping back. Who would want to take over Vogue?
Anna Wintour made an announcement that shocked the worlds of fashion and media on Thursday: She will look for a new editorial lead to oversee the day-to-day operations of American Vogue, the magazine she has edited for the past 37 years. This shift will likely change little for Wintour, with her laconic style and pristine bob that have made her synonymous with what it means to be in and out of fashion.

Sean Combs's Son Christian Releases a Song With Ye: ‘Diddy Free'
Marketing prowess may run in the family. On the day Sean Combs's defense was set to present its closing argument to jurors, the music mogul's son Christian, who raps as King Combs, released a long-teased set of seven new songs, including one track called 'Diddy Free.' The song, credited to King Combs and Ye, the artist formerly known as Kanye West, includes lyrics about those who 'try to play the victim' and states plainly '[expletive] the world, critics and the witness.' Later, King Combs, 27, raps, 'this Bible might come in handy / this rifle might come in handy' with a chorus that promises not to sleep ''til we see Diddy free.' A previous demo version of the song by Ye — without King Combs — had leaked online last month. The superstar rapper and producer, who has become a pariah in the music industry for his persistent, button-pushing antisemitism, has been the highest-profile celebrity to offer public support for Mr. Combs, who is charged with sex trafficking and racketeering conspiracy. Earlier this month, he briefly appeared at the Manhattan courthouse where the trial is being held in a show of solidarity. Ye is credited as the executive producer of King Combs's new music, the 'Never Stop' EP, which uses a photo that appears to depict the dilapidated headquarters for Bad Boy Worldwide, Mr. Combs's entertainment company, as its cover art. The EP also includes a featured appearance by North West, Ye's eldest daughter with his former wife, Kim Kardashian. Her appearance on an earlier version of the song had, according to Ye, been a source of contention between the two parents. King Combs was among the six of Mr. Combs's seven children who appeared in court to support the mogul on Friday. (The seventh, Mr. Combs's lawyer pointed out, is an infant.) He wore a jacket that includes an illustration of his late mother, Kim Porter, who died in 2018 and has been evoked at trial as Mr. Combs's 'soul mate.' 'You always told me to chase my dreams and be a go-getter,' King Combs raps on another track, titled 'Kim.' 'In this studio right now, I feel alone in it.'
