Ben Stiller, Jennifer Aniston and Chris Rock were among the actors and comedians in Washington, D.C. this weekend to celebrate Adam Sandler.In the 1990s, Sandler worked with number of now-famous comedians and actors on Saturday Night Live. Conan O'Brien is among them. At the ceremony, he poked fun at Sandler's loyalty — he often works with the same team of writers and actors."A lot of amazing. amazing people have flown to D.C. to say nice things about Adam Sandler.
Robert Smigel, who also met Sandler on SNL, weighed in on his brand of comedy."He's a creative genius. When he started at SNL, he was a complete original, so much so that half the crew had no idea what he was doing," Smigel said on the red carpet before the show."Older people on the staff kind of thought he was just dumb. Because he sounded dumb. Because his voices sound dumb. But he's one of the smartest guys and one of the most precise guys I've ever worked with.
Drew Barrymore, who has also worked with Sandler in films, is a big fan of his goofball energy. Before the show, she said"Adam can go to the farthest depths but somehow he does it without alienating people and that is a true art, as far as comedy is concerned." Sandler's comedies have alienated some critics over the years, but they've also grossed more than $3 billion worldwide.
