Actor and comedian Adam Sandler did NOT reveal any final text messages from conservative activist Charlie Kirk. Claims circulating online about such a revelation are false and have been thoroughly debunked by multiple fact-checking sources including Lead Stories.
Several viral posts, including one published on Facebook on September 12, 2025, promised that Kirk’s final text message, sent to Sandler, read:
“They’re watching me. If I fall, don’t let my voice die.”
The posts suggested that Sandler appeared visibly shaken while sharing this message. Some articles even described him as tearful, contrasting with his usual comedic persona.
Fact-checking revealed that these claims are entirely false. The text message screenshot cited in the clickbait articles did not come from Sandler and did not contain the alleged message. Instead, the screenshot was of a different text message that Charlie Kirk sent to Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker on October 16, 2024, which read:
Philippians 3:14
I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus
The response from Butker was:
On the mission
Thank you
Other clickbait articles used the same “Kirk’s last text message” formula with different celebrity names, including Bruce Springsteen, Kelly Clarkson, Alice Cooper, and James Hetfield. These articles often originate from pages in countries such as Indonesia, India, the Philippines, Vietnam, and Pakistan, and use homoglyphs in text to evade search engine detection.
Charlie Kirk, a controversial but influential political activist and founder of Turning Point USA, was tragically killed on September 10, 2025, during an event at Utah Valley University. The suspect, 22-year-old Tyler Robinson, was arrested and linked to the scene through DNA evidence. Investigations are ongoing to determine the motive behind the attack.
The false claim of Sandler revealing Kirk’s last message is an example of clickbait exploiting celebrity names and tragic events to generate web traffic. There is no verified evidence of Sandler reading any text message from Kirk, and no official press reports support such a claim.
Audiences are urged to exercise caution and rely on verified news sources when encountering sensational stories. As Lead Stories emphasizes, this is a reminder that clickbait narratives often mislead readers by combining high-profile figures with emotional events for engagement.
