Lady Gaga

NEW YORK — Lady Gaga is heading to Las Vegas for a residency in December and offering fans two kinds of shows.

The singer announced Tuesday that she will kick off the first of 27 performances at the Park Theater on Dec. 28.

“Lady Gaga Enigma” will highlight the pop star's biggest and upbeat hits, while “Lady Gaga Jazz & Piano” will feature more stripped-down songs. Tickets go on sale Aug. 13.

Gaga has won six Grammy Awards and is best known for her dance-pop hits like “Poker Face” and “Born This Way.” She also released a jazz album with Tony Bennett.

The 32-year-old will star in the remake of “A Star Is Born” alongside Bradley Cooper, who also directed and co-wrote the film. It opens in U.S. theaters on Oct. 5.

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. — Jim Carrey says his cartoons pillorying the Trump administration are a civilized response to what he called an unfolding “nightmare.”

Carrey told a TV critics' meeting Monday that his sketches may veer into crassness but are a creative way to express his political opposition.

He stars in the new Showtime series “Kidding,” about a children's TV host hit by a family tragedy, which debuts Sept. 9.

Those who have gotten the Carrey cartoon treatment include President Donald Trump and White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders.

Carrey's sketch of Sanders was blasted as sexist and bigoted by Sanders' father, former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee.

Some critics called it ugly, but Carrey says he didn't use the word and drew Sanders' essence.
