Tiger Woods’ 2026 DUI arrest was the latest in a series of serious car accidents for the golf legend.

Police in Jupiter, Florida, confirmed on March 27, 2026, that Woods was charged with driving under the influence, among other offenses, when an SUV was found on its side after a two-vehicle crash. No injuries were reported and Woods has yet to address the matter publicly.

Woods’ trouble on the road dates back to the early morning hours of November 27, 2009, when Florida police responded to an emergency call near his’ Orlando neighborhood. Woods later called the situation a “private matter,” but injuries kept him off the golf course at the Chevron World Challenge later that month.

Eight years later, Woods pleaded guilty to reckless driving when he had another crash near his Florida home. His most serious accident occurred in 2021 when his SUV rolled over in Rancho Palos Verdes, California, requiring him to have emergency surgery.

Tiger Woods Was Cited for Careless Driving in November 2009

Tiger Woods’ infamous cheating scandal was grabbing headlines when news broke that he’d crashed his Cadillac Escalade into a fire hydrant and a tree near his home at around 2:30 a.m. ET on November 27, 2009. His then-wife, Elin Nordegren, was at the scene.

Woods was treated for facial lacerations and ultimately backed out of multiple appearances that month, including at his own Chevron World Challenge charity event.

There was intense speculation about what caused the crash but Woods released a statement to accept full responsibility.

“The only person responsible for this accident is me,” he insisted. “My wife, Elin, acted courageously when she saw I was hurt and in trouble. She was the first person to help me. Any other assertion is absolutely false.”

New photos of Tiger Woods have emerged after the legendary golfer’s DUI arrest and subsequent release from jail. The pictures, released on Friday, March 27, show Woods looking disheveled in the passenger seat of a black SUV. He’s wearing the same blue polo shirt that was seen in his mug shot, which was also released […]

The golfer went on, “As you all know, I had a single-car accident earlier this week, and sustained some injuries. I have some cuts, bruising and right now I’m pretty sore.”

“This situation is my fault, and it’s obviously embarrassing to my family and me. I’m human and I’m not perfect. I will certainly make sure this doesn’t happen again,” he vowed. “This is a private matter and I want to keep it that way. Although I understand there is curiosity, the many false, unfounded and malicious rumors that are currently circulating about my family and me are irresponsible.”

Woods paid a $164 fine to resolve a careless driving charge, per contemporary reports.

Tiger Woods Was Arrested on Suspicion of DUI in 2017

On May 29, 2017, Jupiter Island, Florida, police allegedly found Tiger Woods asleep behind the wheel of his SUV while stopped at a traffic light with the engine running.

Woods initially entered a not guilty plea when charged with driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs. However, he eventually agreed to plead guilty to reckless driving and was ordered to serve 50 hours of community service, complete one year of probation and pay a fine of $250.

At the time, Woods released a statement to assure the public that he understood “the severity of what I did.”

“I take full responsibility for my actions,” he told ABC News. “I want the public to know that alcohol was not involved. What happened was an unexpected reaction to prescribed medications. I didn’t realize the mix of medications had affected me so strongly.”

He added, “I would like to apologize with all my heart to my family, friends and the fans. I expect more from myself too.”

Tiger Woods Was Seriously Injured in a 2021 Car Crash

Four years after his reckless driving charge, Tiger Woods was seriously injured in a rollover crash in Rancho Palos Verdes, California, on February 23, 2021. No charges were filed but Woods had to be transported to Harbor–UCLA Medical Center with a shattered ankle and two leg fractures.

Woods later told Golf Magazine in May 2021 that the recovery from his rollover crash injuries was the most challenging of his life.

“I understand more of the rehab processes because of my past injuries, but this was more painful than anything I have ever experienced,” he told the publication. “My physical therapy has been keeping me busy. I do my routines every day and am focused on my No. 1 goal right now: walking on my own. Taking it one step at a time.”

Tiger Woods Was Charged With a DUI in March 2026

Jupiter Island, Florida, Sheriff John Budensiek held a press conference on March 27, 2026 to confirm that Tiger Woods had been charged with driving under the influence, property damage and refusal to submit to a lawful test after he refused a uranalysis.

Woods was allegedly involved in a two-vehicle rollover crash at around 2 p.m. local time. No injuries were reported, though a Land Rover was found on its side.

Woods was booked and eventually released after eight hours in police custody. Budensiek told the press later that day what led up to Woods facing criminal charges.

“Our DUI investigators came to the scene here. Mr. Woods did exemplify signs of impairment,” the sheriff explained at a press conference. “They did several tests. He did explain the injuries and the surgeries that he had. We did take that into account.”

Budensiek continued, “Mr. Woods did a breathalyzer test with triple zeros, but when it came time for us to ask for a urinalysis test, he refused, so he’s been charged with DUI, property damage and refusal to submit to a lawful test.”

“We know we arrested a high profile figure … but it doesn’t matter who you are,” the sheriff warned. “If you break the law, we’re going to follow the law. That’s a really easy path to take.”

A mugshot was released that same day, showing Woods in a blue shirt and blankly staring ahead at the camera.

“As far as him being in the jail, we’re going to make sure he’s safe. We’re not going to put him in the general population,” Sheriff Budensiek confirmed. “He’s not going to be with other inmates that can hurt him or try to capitalize on what he did. He’ll pay the price but he’s not going to pay the price by getting punished in jail.”

Us Weekly has reached out to Woods for comment.

After years of being one of science fiction’s most notable filmmakers, from his work on The Terminator series to Aliens and even The Abyss, director James Cameron made cinematic history with Titanic, which was quite a departure from his usual genre fare. But before he set sail on such a vast historical epic, Cameron tried his hand at resurrecting another classic sci-fi feature: Planet of the Apes. No, seriously, Cameron wanted to do his own take on the “apes rule the world” concept, only he was stopped before anything ever took off.

James Cameron Attempted to Remake ‘Planet of the Apes’

In between his work on the Terminator franchise and bringing Titanic to life, James Cameron was serious about trying to bring Planet of the Apes back to the forefront of American pop culture. Although the original 1968 film is arguably the most notable installment, the original Charlton Heston-led series spawned five pictures total before a short-lived 1970s live-action television series (and then an even shorter-lived animated series) kept it afloat a while longer. But eventually the Apes fell to the wayside and, though the franchise remained beloved by some, it was largely forgotten. But in the ’90s, 20th Century Fox dusted off the talking apes for a cinematic return, and here’s where Cameron found himself involved. In a 2006 interview with Ain’t It Cool, the filmmaker noted his part in the failed project when explaining why he wouldn’t return to the Alien franchise:

“The other thing I’ve learned is that when you deal with a studio and it’s their asset… It’s their asset. And I should have learned that lesson with Planet of the Apes because I had a great… great idea with Planet of the Apes, but it was Fox’s asset. Even though I was supposedly developing it, we didn’t see eye to eye and they sort of picked up their marbles and that was that.”​​

While we don’t know much about Cameron’s plans for what could have been with Planet of the Apes (which wasn’t the only franchise he was interested in helming at the time), we do know that, at one point, Arnold Schwarzenegger was even involved. According to David Hughes in his book Tales from Development Hell: Hollywood Filmmaking the Hard Way, Cameron was only in talks to write and produce a potential Planet of the Apes remake, which would have required the attention of another director. Indeed, Variety also confirmed that his production house, Lightstorm Entertainment, had a “formal arrangement” with Fox, though it’s unclear exactly what all that entailed.

However, after the success of Titanic, Cameron reportedly became more interested in original material rather than pre-existing franchises. After all, it was Cameron’s vision for The Terminator (which literally came to him in a dream) that really pushed him into the public eye. In the end, it was probably for the best that Fox decided to go in a different direction. For Cameron, it allowed him to focus on his own personal projects, freeing him up further to ultimately develop Avatar — which, interestingly enough, ended up contributing to Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes years later.

Cameron Loathed Tim Burton’s Take on ‘Planet of the Apes’ — And Don’t We All

Following Cameron’s departure from the Planet of the Apes remake, Tim Burton eventually took over the project and made it his own. Unsurprisingly, Cameron wasn’t too impressed with the results. “They turned out, I think, possibly the most egregious film that they could have on that subject because they miscast the director,” Cameron told Ain’t It Cool. “It’s the only Tim Burton film that I don’t like.” That, of course, is the general consensus among Planet of the Apes fans and casual moviegoers alike. Burton’s strange take on Apes not only fails to miss the mark on what made the original so stunning, but it wastes an otherwise brilliant Tim Roth performance on subpar material. As Matt Goldberg wrote in his review for Collider: “Burton said he wanted to do a ‘re-imagining’ but there wasn’t much imagination in his forgettable remake of an unforgettable film.” At least the failed remake opened the door for the prequel reboot trilogy, which finally brought Planet of the Apes back in miraculous style that lives up to the original.

Planet of the Apes is available for streaming on Hulu in the U.S.

It’s a great time for fans of time-travel storytelling, with as many as three new movies available to watch at home. Arguably the most prominent of them is Gore Verbinski‘s Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die, which underperformed in theaters some weeks ago and has since been redeeming itself on the PVOD market. More recently, BenDavid Grabinski‘s Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice had a massive debut on Hulu, becoming the number one movie on the platform domestically. It also made the top five on the global Disney+ charts. There is, however, a third time-travel movie that’s vying for attention on PVOD platforms. It might be the least prominent of the three, but it has the highest score on Rotten Tomatoes.

Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die, which stars Sam Rockwell in the lead role, holds a “Certified Fresh” 83% on the aggregator website. The site’s consensus reads, “A gleeful high-concept comedy with a serious message at its core, Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die lets Sam Rockwell rip with thrilling results while marking a very welcome return of director Gore Verbinski in peak form.” Meanwhile, Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice is sitting at a “Certified Fresh” 78% score on the aggregator; the movie stars Vince Vaughn, James Marsden, and Eiza González. The third film, on the other hand, has a near-perfect 97% score on Rotten Tomatoes, making it one of the best-reviewed movies of the year.

In his review, Collider’s Ross Bonaime described it as “a clever, ambitious take on the multiverse that focuses on the heart of what this possibility could mean, rather than getting stuck in the minutiae of that reality.” We’re talking about Redux Redux, whose premise makes it sound like a cross between Everything Everywhere All at Once, Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri and Edge of Tomorrow. Directed by Kevin McManus and Matthew McManus, the movie stars their sister Michaela McManus as a woman who goes on an interdimensional mission to track down the murderer of her daughter. The movie premiered at the South by Southwest Film Festival and was given a limited release in theaters in February. According to FlixPatrol, it’s now among the most-watched movies on iTunes domestically. Stay tuned to Collider for more updates.

Tiger Woods was arrested and charged with a DUI on March 27, 2026, after a rollover car crash in Jupiter Island, Florida, that left his Land Rover overturned on a two-lane road.

The Martin County Sheriff’s Office confirmed in a press conference that Woods was charged with driving under the influence, property damage and refusal to submit to a lawful test after he refused a uranalysis. The crash occurred just after 2 p.m. local time. No injuries were reported.

The golf legend was released from police custody nearly eight hours after he was booked, per Florida law.

Tiger Woods has been called one of the greatest golfers to ever play the game — but his journey in the spotlight has been full of highs and lows.  The California native was a child prodigy, making his first-ever TV appearance at the age of 2 on The Mike Douglas Show in 1978 to show […]

How the Crash Unfolded

During a March 2026 press conference, Sheriff John Budensiek described what authorities believe led to the accident. Authorities responded to a call of a rollover crash just before 2 p.m. and found a pickup truck pulling a pressure cleaner trailer and a Land Rover that had rolled over on its driver’s side door.

“The driver of [the pickup truck] looked in his mirror and saw a dark colored Land Rover overtaking him at high speeds,” Budensiek said, without revealing the exact speed of the vehicle. “He tried to edge off to the side of the road, but this is a small two-lane road and there was no shoulder for this pressure cleaner gentleman to get off the side of the road. As he was trying to move to the side of the road, the Land Rover overtook him at the last minute, swerved to avoid a collision, but clipped the back end of the trailer.”

A picture taken by WPTV at the scene showed the Land Rover flipped on its side, while other images of the crash scene show the vehicle overturned and resting vertically on the side of the road with visible structural damage.

Tiger Woods had been driving the Land Rover and, according to Budensiek, was able to crawl out through the passenger’s side window without injury.

The DUI Charges

After authorities on scene believed Tiger Woods might be impaired, DUI investigators were called to assess the golfer.

“Our DUI investigators came to the scene here. Mr. Woods did exemplify signs of impairment,” Sheriff John Budensiek said in a March 2026 press conference. “They did several tests. He did explain the injuries and the surgeries that he had. We did take that into account.”

The sheriff continued, “Mr. Woods did a breathalyzer test with triple zeros, but when it came time for us to ask for a urinalysis test, he refused, so he’s been charged with DUI, property damage and refusal to submit to a lawful test.”

The breathalyzer result of triple zeros suggested Woods was not under the influence of alcohol at the time of the incident.

“We know we arrested a high profile figure … but it doesn’t matter who you are. If you break the law, we’re going to follow the law. That’s a really easy path to take,” Budensiek added of arresting Woods.

Mugshot, Jail Time and Release

An image of Tiger Woods’ mugshot was released the same day as his March 2026 arrest, showing the golfer dressed in a blue shirt and staring at the camera with a serious, if somewhat blank, expression.

Sheriff John Budensiek, meanwhile, addressed how Woods was treated in custody during his press conference.

“As far as him being in the jail, we’re going to make sure he’s safe. We’re not going to put him in general population,” the police officer said. “He’s not going to be with other inmates that can hurt him or try to capitalize on what he did. He’ll pay the price but he’s not going to pay the price by getting punished in jail.”

Woods spent roughly eight hours at Martin County Jail, per Florida statute, and was released around 11 p.m. ET that evening. The golf pro was later spotted looking disheveled in the passenger seat of a black SUV, wearing the same blue polo shirt seen in his mugshot. Woods has not publicly addressed his arrest or car accident.

A History of Car Accidents

Tiger Woods previously suffered significant leg injuries in a one-car crash in Southern California in February 2021, resulting in a shattered ankle and two leg fractures. At the time investigators said there was no reason to believe Woods had been operating the vehicle while impaired by alcohol or drugs. Instead, the athlete crashed while driving at an “unsafe speed for road conditions,” according to a police report.

“I understand more of the rehab processes because of my past injuries, but this was more painful than anything I have ever experienced,” he told Golf Digest in May 2021 while recovering. “My physical therapy has been keeping me busy. I do my routines every day and am focused on my No. 1 goal right now: walking on my own. Taking it one step at a time.”

Woods was also arrested under suspicion of DUI in 2017 during a traffic stop in Florida. The golfer was discovered asleep behind the wheel, with Vicodin, Xanax and other drugs in his system. He pleaded guilty to reckless driving and entered a diversion program for first-time DUI offenders.)

President Donald Trump Responds to Tiger Woods’ Arrest

President Donald Trump addressed the incident within hours, offering sympathy for Tiger Woods, whom he called a “very close friend.”

“I feel so bad. He’s got some difficulty,” Trump told reporters in March 2026. “There was an accident, and that’s all I know. A very close friend of mine, he’s an amazing person, an amazing man. But some difficulty. I don’t want to talk about it.”

Trump was later rumored to consider offering Woods a pardon to compete in the upcoming Masters tournament, according to a viral post on social media. It was quickly revealed that the alleged statement was fake.

Trump and Woods have played golf together in the past, and the U.S. president honored Woods with the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2019 during his first term in office.

There’s no better way to end the day than with a sitcom. With their addictive storylines, inside jokes, and loveable characters, watching just one episode is never enough. Sitcoms have built a reputation for their infectious energy, and for good reason — audiences often find themselves hooked after only a few episodes.

Whether it’s a quick weekend binge or a more intense week-long marathon, sitcoms come in all shapes and season lengths. Some are easy to finish, while others demand a little more time and commitment. Without further ado, here are the greatest sitcoms you can binge in one week, ranked.

‘We Are Lady Parts’ (2021–2024)

As Hannah Montana once said, “You get the best of both worlds.” We Are Lady Parts takes that quote literally. By day, Amina (Anjana Vasan) is a shy microbiology PhD student. By night, she’s the newly recruited lead guitarist for a band called Lady Parts. Apart from finding her husband, playing guitar with a group is a dream come true.

The twist is that women like Amina aren’t the type society expects to be shredding to punk rock. As a hijab-wearing, practicing Muslim, music isn’t seen as a conventional passion. The same goes for the rest of the Lady Parts, who are all practicing Muslims as well. Breaking stereos and stereotypes, We Are Lady Parts is all about tearing the house down.

‘Kim’s Convenience’ (2016–2021)

The heart of downtown Toronto lies in its humble corner stores. Kim’s Convenience is a modern take on familiar immigrant stories. First-generation immigrant parents, Appa (Paul Sun-Hyung Lee) and Umma (Jean Yoon), make a living running their convenience store in Regent Park, Toronto. They’re neither particularly street- nor tech-savvy, but their kindness welcomes customers from all walks of life.

Kim’s Convenience shows how “mundane” everyday life can still be fun and interesting. The best part is that their experiences aren’t far from reality. It’s common for immigrant families to encounter cultural gaps or language barriers, but Kim’s Convenience is a clever modern sitcom that proves how, with the power of community and comedy, they become experiences worth laughing about.

‘How I Met Your Mother’ (2005–2014)

Image via CBS

How I Met Your Mother is the apple that fell from the tree called Friends. Five New York-ian friends from all walks of life get through the peaks and troughs of their late twenties. But when those friends are the super-rich Barney Stinson (Neil Patrick Harris), commitment-phobe Robin Scherbatsky (Cobie Smulders), longtime couple Marshall Erikson (Jason Segel) and Lily Aldrin (Alyson Hannigan), and dreamer Ted Mosby (Josh Radnor), there’s never a dull day in the city.

The secret sauce of How I Met Your Mother is in the main cast’s chemistry. It’s not easy to build an ensemble, let alone one that can sustain nine full seasons. These five characters are the epitome of messy adulthood. Whether it’s changing careers or moving out of apartments, there’s no definitive answer to the right way of maturing. It’s no surprise that binge-watching the show makes us feel like we’re growing up alongside them.

‘Ted Lasso’ (2020–Present)

A beloved feel-good sitcom, Ted Lasso follows Coach Ted Lasso (Jason Sudeikis) and his partner, Coach Beard (Brendan Hunt), as they jetset from Kansas to London for the gig of a lifetime. Assigned to the soccer team, A.F.C. Richmond, these two must whip the team into Premier League shape.

While Ted Lasso stars out as a typical laugh-out-loud and binge-worthy sitcom, it soon evolves into a surprisingly emotional exploration of the talented ensemble’s characters. Viewers shouldn’t be surprised when they’re roped into one genuinely gripping arc after another, with each revealing why appearances are just that, and there’s often something deeper under the surface.

‘Schitt’s Creek’ (2015–2020)

Audiences love a wholesome rags-to-riches story, but they laugh more from a riches-to-rags sitcom. Schitt’s Creek follows the swift downfall of the Rose family, led by video store mogul Johnny Rose (Eugene Levy). When the family’s accountant is accused of tax embezzlement, the Roses have nothing left to their name — except for a middle-of-nowhere town called Schitt’s Creek.

The out-of-touch Roses are initially a hard family to love, and that’s what makes Schitt’s Creek feel natural. They are the worst, most useless neighbors anyone could ask for. However, their desire to reclaim their riches, unironically, forces them to become better people. The Roses work hard not just to win the hearts of the small town, but also the audience tuning in.

‘Derry Girls’ (2018–2022)

Not even the IRA can control these wild, young, and free teens of Northern Ireland. Set in the 1990s, Derry Girls follows a group of four Irish teenage girls (and one English dude) trying to live a normal life amidst the political chaos of the time. But even with army checkpoints and bomb threats, these teens just want to make the most of the best years of their lives.

Derry Girls shows that coming-of-age desires are universal, even when the circumstances in your country feel grave and overwhelming. If anything, these tense situations add richer nuance to how these teens grow up. As much as they want to be cool and catch the attention of a school crush, they also realize that politics is a conversation that isn’t far removed from their everyday gossip.

‘Shrinking’ (2023–Present)

Psychologist Jimmy Laird (Jason Segel) is good at breaking the rules — all in the name of science. Shrinking starts on a morbid note in the aftermath of Jimmy’s wife’s passing. A year has gone by, and Jimmy is just grinding through his days. But when his patients keep returning with the same unresolved issues, Jimmy decides he’s had enough.

Instead of providing them the same old consolations, Jimmy gives them the tough love they need — which, surprisingly, works. It’s hilarious to watch Jimmy provide hilariously unorthodox solutions, much to his colleagues’ disapproval. Despite Jimmy’s shenanigans, Shrinking is a beacon of hope viewers need whenever the times get tough.

‘Brooklyn Nine-Nine’ (2013–2021)

Back off, feds — Brooklyn Nine-Nine can handle cases on its own. The popular police procedural sitcom takes its job seriously, but every workplace has that one class, or precinct, clown. Case in point: Detective Jake Peralta (Andy Samberg). On the field, he’s smart and sharp. But to his colleagues, he’s the ultimate dork who hasn’t cleaned his desk for years.

Brooklyn Nine-Nine keeps the adrenaline going with cases ranging from petty theft to bloody murder, all of which are just as engaging as they are thought-provoking. But the show also knows how to keep the humor alive, thanks to its eccentric force, running gags, and character development that evolves over the seasons.

‘Kath & Kim’ (2002–2007)

From King of the Hill to Gilmore Girls, the American suburban life is ideal for most people looking to get away from the city. But somewhere in Australia, Kath & Kim hilariously show that suburban life is anything but ordinary. Mother Kath Day-Knight (Jane Turner) and her only child, Kim Diane Craig (Gina Riley), may live in the suburbs, but they harbor dreams of affluence.

But for two women whose idea of culture revolves around retro lingerie and Australian Idol, Kath and Kim are far from high class. It’s comical to watch them rock their gaudy fashion and believe they’re fly as heck. It’s not that they’re ignorant; it’s just that these two are so confident in their own bad taste that they ironically become amazingly inspiring to watch.

‘Abbott Elementary’ (2021–Present)

These teachers know a thing or two about the public education system. Set in West Philly, Abbott Elementary follows the eccentric staff of Abbott as they deal with everything school-related. From rowdy kids during nap time to budget cuts, no issue is too big for the beady-eyed middle school teacher Janine Teagues (Quinta Brunson) and her motley crew of teachers.

Audiences were all students at one point, but not all of us grew up to become teachers. Abbott Elementary shows the hard work teachers put into their classes just so their kids can get the education they deserve. The staff might not be perfect — sometimes they’re just as clueless as their students. But in true school spirit, learning never stops, no matter how old you are.

Madison Beer is a singer-songwriter who uses her platform to sing about mental health, self-empowerment, and relationships. She first gained attention as a teenager when pop star Justin Bieber shared a link to her cover of “At Last” on Twitter. Not only did this lead to a recording contract, but her rise in popularity has also led to several brand deals. Most recently, she partnered with Frito-Lay, a subsidiary of PepsiCo, in order to create her own snack: Flavor Swap Lays Sweet Southern Heat Barbecue on Cheetos Crunchy.

Inside The History Of Madison Beer’s Flavor Swap Cheetos Flavor

Madison Beer collaborated with Cheetos on their “Flavor Swap” collaboration, which launched on March 1, 2026. The launch has been a long time coming, as the “Make You Mine” singer has been teasing the collaboration for months.

On December 18, 2025, Madison Beer posted an Instagram Story video teasing an upcoming collaboration with Cheetos.

On January 21, 2026, the official Cheetos accounts posted about the collaboration on X, with a release date of February 16, 2026.

On February 16, 2026, Madison posted an Instagram video of herself finding her snack bags in stores. “Found my flavor swap bags with @cheetos,” she wrote in the caption. “In stores nationwide, March 1! For a limited time!!”

A fan account also posted the video, showing that one of her bags was available for sale on Amazon for $12.99, although smaller bags are available in some grocery stores for a cheaper price.

Warning: Contains Milk

Although products like Kourtney Kardashian’s Khloud popcorn elevate the snacking experience by offering way more protein than you’d typically get in a handful of popcorn, the Madison Beer x Cheetos collaboration has the same snacking profile that you’d find on pretty much any bag of chips.

One serving is said to contain 160 calories, 10 grams of total fat, 16 grams of carbohydrates, and only 1 gram of protein. The first ingredient is enriched corn meal, and it contains sugar and vegetable oil. It is also said to contain cream, skim milk, and whey, so this is not a product for anyone who is vegan, lactose intolerant, or avoiding dairy.

What Do Fans Have To Say About The New Flavor?

Overall, reactions on X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter, are pretty positive. “Amazing flavor, but throws me off hard cuz the Cheetos are orange but no cheese flavor. Ty Madison Beer,” one user tweeted.

Justin Herbert’s girl, Madison Beer, did her big one with this creation. Flavor swap. Whatever it is, it is ADDICTIVE. So good. 10/10. And dipped in a lil sour cream… even better. That is all,” another fan posted.

Another user shared, “Madison Beer’s barbecue Cheetos are good lol they kinda taste like the chili cheese Fritos.” Other fans praised them as “spectacular” and “delicious.”

If you’re the kind of person who needs the thing they’re eating to look like what it tastes like, then you might not enjoy these. If you’re the kind of person who reaches for Cheetos looking for the cheese, then these definitely won’t curb that craving.

My Verdict: Are They Worth The Hype?

They do have a bit of a sweet barbecue flavor, but there was no heat. No spice. If you put these out in a bowl at a party, I doubt anyone would complain, but if you’re looking for heat, you won’t find it. Likewise, if you were hoping for at least some cheese with your Cheetos, you’re not going to find that, either.

If you’re curious, wait until the small snack-size bags are on sale at your grocery store before picking one up. They’re definitely not worth the $12.99 price tag on Amazon, unless you’re a huge Madison Beer fan and just want the bag as a collector’s item.

In February 2026, Marketing Dive reported that PepsiCo was looking to “reimagine” how chips are made with a Gen Z audience in mind. The first creator-led product line didn’t just include a Flavor Swap from Madison Beer, but iShowSpeed and Dude Perfect as well.

While Madison Beer made waves with Lay’s Sweet Southern Heat Barbecue on Cheetos Crunchy, streamer iShowSpeed introduced Ruffles Cheddar & Sour Cream on Doritos, and sports-comedy group Dude Perfect added a unique flavor spin by putting Doritos Cool Ranch on Ruffles.

“Flavor Swap is a campaign full of ‘firsts.’ The first time we’ve remixed these iconic flavors onto unexpected chips. The first time we teamed up with some of today’s biggest tastemakers to help us launch and put their own spin on PepsiCo’s legendary brands,” said Chris Bellinger, chief creative officer at PepsiCo Foods U.S., in a statement. “The first time we’ve executed a truly social-first campaign to debut an iconic flavor drop.”

Fans are looking forward to seeing what other artists, influencers, and flavors might appear in a future drop!

Vice President JD Vance, the second in line to the presidency, is sharing his unconventional, Christian-based theory on life beyond Earth.

“I don’t think they’re aliens. I think they’re demons anyway, but that’s a longer discussion,” Vance, 41, told far-right YouTuber Benny Johnson in an interview published on Saturday, March 28.

“Well, look, I think that celestial beings who fly around, who do weird things to people, I think that the desire to describe everything celestial, everything is otherworldly, to describe it as aliens,” Vance, who grew up atheist but converted to Catholicism as an adult, continued. “I mean, every great world religion, including Christianity, the one that I believe in, has understood that there are weird things out there and there are things that are very difficult to explain.”

He added, “And I naturally go, when I hear about, sort of, extra natural phenomenon … to the Christian understanding that there’s a lot of good out there, but there’s also some evil out there. And I think that one of the devil’s great tricks is to convince people we never existed.”

Vice President JD Vance is singing his praises for Nicki Minaj after her appearance at Turning Point USA’s AmericaFest. “Nicki Minaj said something at Amfest that was really profound,” Vance, 41, wrote via X on Monday, December 22. “I’m paraphrasing, but she said, ‘Just because I want little Black girls to think they’re beautiful doesn’t […]

Johnson — who in 2024 was discovered to be secretly funded by Russian state media along with a handful of ultra-conservative social media influencers — asked earlier in the wide-ranging interview if Vance and the current administration had plans to “release all the UFO files.”

“We’re working on it,” Vance responded, referring to President Donald Trump’s February claim that he would be directing the proper U.S. agencies to “begin the process of identifying and releasing” all government files on aliens and extraterrestrial life. (No such files have been released at the time of publication.)

“It’s funny. When I came in, I was obsessed with the UFO files,” Vance admitted. “And then you start getting really busy worrying about the economy and national security and things like that. But I’ve still got three more years as vice president. I will get to the bottom of the UFO files.”

While public interest in possible extraterrestrial life is far from new, the possibility that we are not alone in the universe has hit an arguable fever pitch after former President Barack Obama seemingly confirmed that aliens do, in fact, exist.

“They’re real,” Obama, 64, told political podcaster Brian Tyler Cohen on February 13, adding that while he knows extraterrestrial life is real he has not personally seen any evidence that could definitively prove their existence.

“But I haven’t seen them,” he continued. “They’re not being kept at Area 51. There’s no underground facility — unless there’s this enormous conspiracy and they hid it from the president of the United States.”

Charlie Kirk’s widow, Erika Kirk (née Frantzve), answered some lingering questions about her onstage hug with Vice President JD Vance. “My love language is touch, if you will,” Erika, 37, explained during a recent Megyn Kelly Live appearance. “So, I will give you a play-by-play: They just played the emotional video. I’m walking over, [JD] […]

Two days later, Obama clarified his shocking comments via Instagram.

“I was trying to stick with the spirit of [Cohen’s] speed round, but since it’s gotten attention let me clarify,” the former president said at the time. “Statistically, the universe is so vast that the odds are good there’s life out there. But the distances between solar systems are so great that the chances we’ve been visited by aliens is low. I saw no evidence during my presidency that extraterrestrials have made contact with us. Really!”
