GB News reporter accused of 'exploiting' autistic man
Sultan Bey has said his brother was ridiculed and humiliated by correspondent Steven Edginton when he spoke to him for a vox pop interview about British values and historical figures in London. Asked about what he thought about a number of famous historical figures like Alfred the Great, the man said in the clip: 'Erm, well… What I would say about these people is they're just doing what they've got to do, you know?' 'I was born in South London in 1997, it is my home… Yeah, Britain is my home. 'It's amazing… Things have changed for good.' Talking to The London Economic, his brother Sultan Bey has revealed the experience has left the family reeling.

'What do you think are British values?'@StevenEdginton finds out from South London locals what it means to be British. — GB News (@GBNEWS) July 17, 2025 'Now, my first point of reaction when seeing the video was a frustration towards my brother because we've told him, please stay off social media, don't let yourself get recorded, don't let people record you,' Bey said. Bey claims what was thought to be a light-hearted moment in his brother's eyes was edited into a form of ridicule, shared for engagement rather than understanding. 'It was also a point of anger, anger towards GB News, because if you go and look at GB News and what they posted on Instagram, what they posted on YouTube, what they posted on TikTok, it was clipped in a way to make my brother look stupid,' he claimed. He added: 'Now, obviously my brother suffers from autism and a news company should be at a place of position of care where they can see that this is an individual that is clearly neurodivergent. You can tell that there's something up here and you shouldn't post something like this on social media.'

Bey said his brother has a deep affection for London, a photographic memory, and a genuine enthusiasm for his home country. He said: 'He loves London, he loves being British.' 'To see how he's been treated, to see how people have spoken about him saying that he doesn't belong here, saying that he should go back home… racist comments, whether to me or in my DMs as well, it's just been not nice,' he added. 'They've put it out in a way to ridicule and humiliate my brother. 'Obviously he's autistic, he's got key carers that GB News should have reached out to before even putting this out. And we did not consent for this to go out. And I don't think he consented for this to go out. He didn't write a written confirmation that this should go out. It's ridiculous.' A GB News spokesperson said: 'The clip is one of a number GB News has broadcast, and which forms part of a longer documentary examining what Britishness and British values mean to different people. 'We'd encourage people to watch the documentary, and make their own minds up.' Edginton commented on Twitter/X: 'I haven't seen so much hysteria over a vox pop in my life. That's what we do sometimes – interview the public. Sometimes they look good, or bad, or neutral. People can make up their own minds. 'I didn't trap him or force home to do an interview. I asked the same questions to everyone. Endless virtue signalling nonsense.'

Beyonce's ‘Cowboy Carter' tour ends soon. Get tickets to final shows in Vegas
Vivid Seats is the New York Post's official ticketing partner. We may receive revenue from this partnership for sharing this content and/or when you make a purchase. Featured pricing is subject to change. 'Cowboy Carter' has reached its final destination. After a whirlwind international tour — which included 1) visually and sonically spectacular concerts, 2) guest spots from Jay-Z, Blue Ivy Carter, Rumi and Miley Cyrus, 3) wild technical difficulties and 4) unreleased music stolen from an SUV belonging to a member of her team — Beyoncé will cap the 'Cowboy Carter Tour' with a pair of shows in Sin City. The last two gigs will go down at Las Vegas' Allegiant Stadium on Friday, July 25 and Saturday, July 26. If you'd like to be there, last-minute tickets are surprisingly inexpensive. At the time of publication, the lowest price we could find on tickets for these concerts was $121 including fees on Vivid Seats. Not bad considering this is the last the hive will see of the Queen for the foreseeable future. And, while we can't confirm whether or not Bey will bring out any big names to accompany her onstage (although her husband Hova joined her in Atlanta this past weekend), it's almost a certainty she'll perform over 30 songs based on what she's taken to the stage at past gigs on the run. According to Set List FM, she regularly delivers 'Cowboy Carter' tracks with hits like 'Crazy in Love,' 'Single Ladies,' 'Irreplaceable' and 'If I Were a Boy' sprinkled in for good measure. Yet, Knowles' powerhouse vocals aren't the only reason to drop serious coin to see her live. On top of the fan favorites she belts, the 'Cowboy Carter Tour' also features a stunning stage show with a mechanical bull, awe-inspiring choreography, her square-dancing daughters and, of course, the flying red car. 'It's a 2-hour-45-minute mashup of hardcore dance music and country/Americana leanings, in which neither primary genre has to say: 'Don't fence me in,'' Variety raved in a review of the first show of the tour back in April. 'And it's deliriously great, blurry, boundary-busting fun.' Still need a few more details before smashing the Bey buy button?

In addition to charting at No. 1 in 24 countries, the album was met with universal acclaim. As a cherry on top, 'Cowboy Carter' won Album of the Year, Best Country Album and Best Country Duo/Group Performance for her 'II Most Wanted' with Miley Cyrus at the 2025 Grammys. Highlights from the genre-hopping effort include the free-flowing, epic '16 CARRIAGES,' twangy bop 'TEXAS HOLD 'EM' and stirring, cinematic, operatic 'DAUGHTER.' Make sure to give the good-time, party-startin' 'Son Of A Preacher Man'-sampling 'YA YA' a try, too. It's perfect for a stroll down the street, workout or pick-me-up. For our money, it's essentially a free mood booster. If you'd like to hear the one-of-a-kind album — that's the second in a trilogy celebrating different genres after the electrifying, EDM-ified 'Renaissance' — you can listen to 'Cowboy Carter' in full here. Beyoncé news The last few weeks of the 'Cowboy Carter Tour' have generated quite a few headlines. According to The Post, 'Beyoncé's unreleased music, tour plans and other 'personal sensitive information' were reportedly stolen out of a SUV linked to two members of her team' in Atlanta two days before she began her short residency at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. More recently, a 'stampede' broke out at one of the Atlanta gigs after a ten-year-old fan screamed after spotting an insect while leaving the venue The Post reported. Unbelievably, 11 hive members ended up in the hospital because of a bug. 'As panicked concertgoers began running down the escalator, it briefly sped up before coming to a screeching halt — causing people to fall on top of each other,' they wrote.

Beyoncé, as usual, is turning heads while on the road for her Cowboy Carter World Tour. With stunning outfits taking over our timelines every time she hits a new city, it's almost overwhelming how much work she and stylists Shiona Turini, Karen Langley, and Ty Hunter have put into the trek. With themes of Americana running throughout, fans have been treated to countless looks highlighting Bey's all-American roots, as well as her usual staples of form-fitting bodysuits and plenty of sequins. This time around, however, the singer's coats have grasped the fans' attention more than any other specific look. The coats add drama to the performer's already high-energy show, providing even more umph to 'fits that stand strong on their own. One coat in particular, designed by Burberry and featuring a large American Eagle emblem on the back, seems to be Bey's favorite, as she's worn it multiple times compared to others that — thus far — have been one and done. All of them, however, are striking in design and perfect for making a lasting impression from the front row to the cheap seats, affectionately known as the 'II Hands II Heaven' section. Check out 20 of Bey's best coats from the Cowboy Carter tour below, and keep an eye out for our ranking of every single look after the tour wraps up in Las Vegas on July 26.

Beyoncé's Unreleased Music Files, Tour Materials Stolen Before Atlanta ‘Cowboy Carter' Show
Beyoncé's unreleased music may have fallen into the wrong hands as a vehicle was robbed before the Atlanta stop of her Cowboy Carter Tour. The break-in was reported by Bey's choreographer and one of her dancers, who said thieves broke into their SUV and stole several items. The perpetrators took two suitcases, jump drives containing unreleased music, footage plans for the Houston superstar's show, past and future set lists, and more, per WSB-TV. According to local police, the incident happened around 8 p.m. on July 8, 2025, inside a parking deck at 44 Krog Street NE. This places the event just 48 hours prior to the mother of three kicking off her ATL shows. A reporter for the outlet learned Monday evening (July 14) that an arrest warrant has been issued for a suspect. Christopher Grant and Diandre Blue reported the crime to the authorities. They said someone broke in through the back lift gate and robbed their rental black Jeep Wagoneer while it was stationed in a parking deck around 8:09 p.m. Detectives confirmed to WSB-TV that the break-in was captured on surveillance cameras, and the scene was dusted for fingerprints. No suspects have been identified. 'Mr. Grant advised he was also carrying some personal sensitive information for the musician Beyoncé,' an officer wrote in the incident report.'He advised he was her choreographer and Mr. Diandre Blue was a dancer for her and that her hard drives for her upcoming show in Atlanta were stolen also. The hard drives contained water marked music, some un-released music, footage plans for the show and past and future set lists,' the officer added in the police report. Other members of Bey's team reported clothes, designer sunglasses, laptops, and a pair of AirPods Max headphones were stolen from the vehicle as well. Additionally, Bey's Atlanta show made headlines due to a rare moment with husband JAY-Z on stage. Hov made his second Cowboy Carter Tour appearance in Atlanta on Sunday (July 13), where they performed 'Crazy In Love' together and the NYC rapper treated fans to a rendition of 'Public Service Announcement.' Watch above. Tonight is Bey's last Atlanta show, and then the 'Halo' singer will hit Las Vegas on July 25 and 26 to close out the tour. Grab last minute tickets here.

Did Nicki Minaj Just Shade Beyoncé? The Barbz And BeyHive Heatedly Debate 'Mechanical Bull' Post
Did Nicki Minaj just throw shade Beyoncé's way? Well, it depends on who you ask, as the Queens MC took to her X account Sunday (July 13) with a post referencing a mechanical bull that fans of Beyoncé took as a dig, as Bey has been riding a mechanical bull on stage throughout her Cowboy Carter Tour. Minaj recently called out Bey's husband, JAY-Z, for allegedly cheating her out of multi-millions via their past deal with streaming service, TIDAL. JAY also made a surprise appearance on his wife's tour during the third date of its Atlanta stop Sunday night. While the BeyHive took offense, Nicki's loyal Barbz were quick to remind the Hive that the exact quote, 'The bull I ride is not mechanical' is from her 2023 track 'Cowgirl.' Still, the timing of the post and decision to highlight that bar in particular has Bey fans hitting Nicki and her followers with the side-eye. Check out the post above and both the Barbz's and BeyHive's reactions below. The BeyHive The Barbz Minaj took to social media to call out JAY-Z last week, reposting a meme from 50 Cent highlighting Rymir Satterthwaite's lawsuit against the mogul, as the 31-year-old is currently alleging that the Brooklyn native, 55, is his father. She followed that up by accusing him of refusing to hand over up to $200,000,000 in connection to her equity in TIDAL. 'We've calculated about 100-200MM so far. #JayZ call me to settle this karmic debt. It's only collecting more interest,' she wrote on X, adding that despite the financial dispute, 'You still in my TOP 5 tho.' While Minaj has no problem calling out the 4:44 rapper by name, she previously denied throwing shots at Bey after being accused of referring to the Houston native as a 'robot,' with the rapper calling the claim an 'absolute lie.'
