The "Wheel of Fortune" wizard who nailed puzzles with just one letter and took home $76k is about to drop some of that dough on a sports car.

Robert Santoli came on "TMZ Live" to explain how he pulled off a near sweep of every puzzle on last Friday's episode of 'Wheel' -- and his strategy was downright genius. And a lot of hard work.

Robert -- whose day job is working IT at a college prep school -- tells us he's eyeballing a new Mustang ... either red or black. He says he fell in love with Ford's muscle car when he was in L.A. shooting 'Wheel.'

Don't worry, Mom ... the 23-year-old also says he's going to pay off his student loans from Fordham.

1:40 PM PT -- Cops say they found a 1/2 ounce of marijuana hidden in a fake can. Twista came on "TMZ Live" to talk about the arrest.

Rapper Twista was busted for possession of pot Thursday night ... which torpedoed his Indiana concert.

Twista was scheduled to perform at Big Shots in Valparaiso. We're told the Rolls Royce Phantom in which he was riding was pulled over at 10:15 PM, before the concert. Twista, 2 other passengers and the driver waited outside the car as police searched the vehicle and found the weed.

Cops say they stopped the Rolls because it was following too close to a truck. Police approached the vehicle and smelled weed.

All 4 men were arrested.

Twista was on his way to the concert when he was busted. The show, obviously, did not go on.

The rapper was held until 4 AM Friday morning and released after he posted $500 bail.

Beyonce's "cousin" who says she met Bey at a funeral has been hit up by a slew of nightclubs ... and a slew of drooling rappers.

Kristin Douglas appeared on "TMZ Live" Wednesday and said she had no idea her sister Kelsi Leggett (left) posted the pic on Instagram, and Kelsi says she even blocked Kristin from viewing the pic because Kelsi knew Kristin didn't like it.

Both women are blown away by the reaction ... Kristin now has 80k followers. But even bigger, she told us a bunch of clubs want her to appear -- for a price -- and some admiring rappers have also inquired.

BTW ... turns out Beyonce and the 2 women are not cousins, or even related. The guy who died is Beyonce's uncle and the godfather of Kristin and Kelsi.
