On Monday, May 19, 2025, Dilbert creator Scott Adams shared that he has prostate cancer. This comes shortly after former U.S. President Joe Biden was diagnosed with an aggressive form of the same cancer, which has spread to his bones.
On Monday, during a Rumble Studio livestream of his show, Coffee with Scott Adams, Scott opened up about having prostate cancer and admitted that he does not have long to live.
"Some of you have already guessed, so this won't surprise you at all, but I have the same cancer that Joe Biden has. So I also have prostate cancer that has also spread to my bones, but I've had it longer than he's had it. Well, longer than he's admitted having it. So my life expectancy is maybe this summer."

Scott Adams further revealed that the disease is giving him a hard time.
"Now the disease is already intolerable, I can tell you that I don't have good days, so if you're wondering, 'Hey Scott, do you have any good days?' Nope, every day is a nightmare, and evening is even worse."
He explained that the pain shifts to different parts of his body, and he has been using a walker to get around, adding, "So you know it's basically intolerable."
More about Scott Adams
As reported by North Jersey on May 19, 2025, the 67-year-old cartoonist created the 1989 comic strip Dilbert, which aimed to poke fun at office culture. However, the comic strip stopped running in major news outlets such as USA Today Network and the Washington Post, due to Scott Adams' racist remarks.
According to The Guardian, on 26 February 2023, Scott Adams called black Americans a "hate group" and asked white people to "get the hell away."
"So if you know nearly half of all Blacks are not okay with white people, according to this poll, not according to me. That's a hate group, and I don't want to have anything to do with them, and I would say, based on the current way things are going, the best advice I would give to white people is to get the hell away from black people," Adams said.
Apart from creating Dilbert, Scott Adams has authored books including The Dilbert Principle (1996), How to Fail at Almost Everything (2013), and Still Win Big (2013).
In recent years, the cartoonist has built a following of over 170k subscribers on his YouTube channel, Real Coffee with Scott Adams, where he discusses various social and political issues.

On May 18, the Democrats' office released a statement revealing Former U.S President Joe Biden's diagnosis with an "aggressive form" of prostate cancer, claiming that Biden, along with his family, has been "reviewing treatment options with his physicians."
"Last week, President Joe Biden was seen for a new finding of a prostate nodule after experiencing increasing urinary symptoms."

"Michelle and I are thinking of the entire Biden family. Nobody has done more to find breakthrough treatments for cancer in all its forms than Joe, and I am certain he will fight this challenge with his trademark resolve and grace. We pray for a fast and full recovery."
Joe Biden's Vice President Kamala Harris also expressed that she was "saddened" to hear the news of his diagnosis and labeled him a "fighter" in an X post on May 19.
Later, the same day, Biden took to Instagram to express gratitude for the outpouring of support.
