このコンテンツについて
Big headline this week in entertainment circles Kevin Hart has been front and center in a worldwide comedy and cultural debate thanks to his appearance at the Riyadh Comedy Festival in Saudi Arabia, a two-week mega event that wrapped October 9th and included more than fifty international comedians. Major outlets like Human Rights Watch and The Guardian report Hart joined megastars like Dave Chappelle and Bill Burr to perform, igniting fierce backlash from human rights groups and some fellow comics. The controversy is all about ethics and entertainment, with critics accusing Hart and others of helping “sportswash” or “cultural wash” the Saudi regime’s image despite its record of oppressing free speech and detaining political dissidents. The festival paid huge sums to participants and sparked days of debate on artist responsibility, leading Human Rights Watch to refuse donations from comics who performed and Marc Maron to publicly blast colleagues who took Saudi money. Hart has not yet addressed the backlash directly in major interviews, but debates over free speech and celebrity ethics show no signs of fading.
On the business and TV front, Hart is maintaining his relentless grind. This week a new DraftKings TV ad featuring Hart aired nationwide according to iSpot. In this commercial Hart’s energy drives the “Love Slots Free Daily Reward” campaign, blending his signature humor with casino hype aimed at sports fans as betting industry sponsorships heat up.
There’s also the ongoing buzz from Verizon’s recent ad campaign featuring Hart mocking T-Mobile’s “best network” claims. MediaPost calls this a shot in the telecom ad wars, with Hart poking fun at dubious awards and flexing his pop culture clout for Verizon in a pointed, comedic fashion—proof again that Hart is a first-choice frontman for marquee brands.
Hart’s public tour schedule is as packed as ever. Comedy.Tickets listed him for an October 24th show at Marcus D, and fans took to social media to share snaps and stories, with his recent New York City appearance drawing the usual crowd and Instagram attention. The trail of selfies and fan clips confirms that, despite the festival controversy, Hart’s live draw and mainstream appeal remain strong.
On the money side, Hart’s business background made fresh headlines with a Benzinga recap of his investing blunders, especially a notorious headphone-speaker hybrid startup he once called “the worst invention I ever put money into.” Humbling as that admission is, Hart’s $400-450 million estimated net worth—driven by HartBeat Productions and his standup empire—shows he learns from mistakes and keeps building.
Finally, Hart popped up again on the sports and culture beat, appearing with Shaquille O’Neal for a viral NBA parody game segment and welcoming French phenom Victor Wembanyama to “Cold As Balls,” his popular sports talk show, where basketball fashion and French-American jokes dominated X and TikTok reels. From headlining global controversies to headlining arenas, Hart’s never far from the action or the headlines.
