Adam Sandler to embark on You're My Best Friend comedy tour: How to get tickets
First up, fans of the comedian, actor and sometimes-singer's onscreen shenanigans can see him in the long-awaited "Happy Gilmore 2," streaming on Netflix beginning July 25.

Beginning in early September and running through November, Sandler will stop everywhere from Baltimore to Las Vegas, offering up a dose of his well-loved comedic timing (and perhaps a few tunes as well).

Netflix is also currently streaming "Adam Sandler: Love You," a comedy special shot in Los Angeles over two days at sold-out shows.

FTC says group flooded Ticketmaster with fake accounts to buy up tickets
Federal regulators are suing a ticket broker accused in a multimillion-dollar scheme to resell thousands of tickets to live events, including Taylor Swift's record-setting 'Eras Tour,' by bypassing Ticketmaster security measures. The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) filed its suit against Key Investment Group LLC and its affiliates Monday, alleging that the Maryland-based ticket reseller used clandestine measures — including purchasing sham accounts and masking IP addresses — to get around Ticketmaster's ticket purchasing limits. After quickly amassing thousands of tickets for concerts and other events through the fake accounts, the alleged scammers then resold them to fans at higher prices, the lawsuit claims. The FTC detailed as an example in its complaint how the effort worked with Swift's sold-out shows, noting that over five months in 2023, the group bought 2,280 tickets to 38 stops on the 'Eras Tour.' 'Defendants paid $744,970.29 for these tickets and resold them for $1,961,980.65, netting $1,217,010.36 in revenue,' the lawsuit states. The Better Online Ticket Sales (BOTS) Act, which was signed into law in 2016, prohibits efforts to circumvent 'control measures used by Internet ticket sellers to ensure equitable consumer access to tickets for any given event.' Frustrations have persisted, though, as bots have continued to grab tickets for the marked-up resell market. 'President Trump made it clear in his March Executive Order that unscrupulous middlemen who harm fans and jack up prices through anticompetitive methods will hear from us,' FTC Chairman Andrew N. Ferguson said in a statement. 'Today's action puts brokers on notice that the Trump-Vance FTC will police operations that unlawfully circumvent ticket sellers' purchase limits, ensuring that consumers have an opportunity to buy tickets at fair prices.'

Elon Musk's baby mama says she's broke and starting a podcast to survive
Ashley St. Clair, the 26-year-old mother of Elon Musk 's youngest son, says she is broke and on the verge of eviction. To make ends meet, the former conservative commentator has launched a podcast on X — the San Francisco-based social media platform owned by Musk — in hopes of covering rent for her $15,000-a-month New York City apartment. 'Well, after a year of unplanned career suicide, many questionable life choices and a gap in my LinkedIn profile that cannot be legally explained, I've decided to start a podcast,' she said in the debut episode of 'Bad Advice with Ashley St. Clair' on Monday, Aug. 18. 'Not because anybody asked, but because statistically speaking, it was either join this or join a (multi-level marketing scheme). So here we are.' St. Clair revealed in February that she had given birth to Musk's son, Romulus, in September 2024. A paternity test reviewed by the Wall Street Journal reportedly confirmed Musk is the father, making Romulus his 13th known child. The disclosure triggered a custody battle and a dispute over financial support. bad advice ep. 1 brought to u by @Polymarket — Ashley St. Clair (@stclairashley) August 18, 2025 According to St. Clair, Musk once offered her $15 million and monthly payments in exchange for keeping the child's birth private. She declined the offer and later accused him of slashing her child support by more than half. Musk has said he gave her $2.5 million and was paying $500,000 annually, though her lawyer said payments fell from $100,000 a month to as low as $20,000. 'I'm getting evicted and Polymarket offered me $10,000 to do an ad read,' St. Clair said on the podcast, referring to the American cryptocurrency-based prediction market, headquartered in Manhattan. 'So with that, the roof over my head has been brought to you by Polymarket.' The podcast also veered into darker humor. St. Clair joked about the recent assault of 19-year-old Musk aide Edward Coristine, known as 'Big Balls.' She compared his injuries, such as a bloody nose, to those she sustained 'after I told my toddler he couldn't watch 'Paw Patrol.'' 'He was with his girlfriend, or lady partner — whatever the Musk orbit calls their non-committal fluid breeding vessel contenders these days,' St. Clair said of the assault that prompted President Donald Trump to deploy the National Guard in Washington, DC. 'He got his ass beat so bad, some are calling it reparations. I'm not, of course. I would never do that. But what I don't understand is why you didn't just let them take the car?'

Joy Reid says ‘mediocre white men' like Trump, Elvis steal culture from other races
Advertisement Former MSNBC anchor Joy Reid condemned President Donald Trump, Elvis Presley and others on Friday as some of history's many 'mediocre White men' whose achievements are stolen or counterfeit. Reid criticized Trump's review of the Smithsonian during an interview with Wajahat Ali for his 'The Left Hook' substack, in an episode titled, 'How Mediocre White Men and Their Fragility Are Destroying America.' They argued that across America's institutions, there is a phenomenon of 'mediocre White men' with no actual culture of their own who co-opt the achievements of Black people to aggrandize themselves. Ali opened the episode by talking about Trump reforming the Kennedy Center in what his critics call a hostile takeover. The institution, which in recent years had featured drag queen performances, is now being reformed to show decidedly more conservative and pro-American content. Advertisement Trump announced this year's Kennedy Center awards last week, which he will also be hosting. 3 Reid made the comments on Wajahat Ali's 'The Left Hook' substack. 'These people cannot create culture on their own,' Ali said. 'Without Black people, Brown people, the DEIs, there's no culture in America. We make the food better. We make the economy better. We make the music better. Right? MAGA can't create culture. They got Cracker Barrel and Kid Rock.' Reid and Ali claimed that White conservatives practice their own variant of outrage culture where they complain about what they say. 'They don't have the intellectual rigor to actually argue or debate with us, right? And what they do is they tattle and tell. They run and tell teacher that 'the Black lady or the Brown man was mean to me.' And that's what they always do,' Reid said. Advertisement Reid, who initially wore a hat dedicated to the historically debatable 1619 Project, then changed to one with the letters 'FDT,' took special umbrage at Trump's efforts to review the Smithsonian's historical exhibits ahead of America's 250th anniversary. 3 United States President Donald J Trump speaks during a Multilateral Meeting with European Leaders in the East Room of the White House in Washington, DC, USA, 18 August 2025. AARON SCHWARTZ/POOL/EPA/Shutterstock 'They can't fix the history they did. Their ancestors made this country into a slave — a slave hell, but they can clean it up now because they got the Smithsonian. They can get rid of all the slavery stuff,' she said. 'They got PragerU that can lie about the history to the children. They can't originally invent anything more than they ever were able to invent good music. 'We Black folk gave y'all country music, hip-hop, R&B, jazz, rock and roll. They couldn't even invent that, but they have to call a White man 'The King.' Because they couldn't make rock and roll, so they have to stamp 'The King' on a man whose main song was stolen from an overweight Black woman,' Reid continued. Advertisement Reid was referring to 'The King' Elvis Presley singing 'Hound Dog,' which was first recorded by Big Mama Thornton, a Black blues singer, and written by two Jewish-American songwriters. Elvis' version, which was more upbeat, with a faster rhythm and slightly altered lyrics, boosted his rise to fame in 1956 after his previous breakout hit, 'Heartbreak Hotel' earlier that year. 3 Rock and roll musician Elvis Presley performing on the Elvis comeback TV special on June 27, 1968.

Instead of changing her act, she's doubled down on stupid,' he said. Fox News Digital reached out to PragerU and did not receive an immediate reply.
