Adam Sandler
All-Star Ranking:
Comedian/actor Adam Sandler was born in Brooklyn, NY in 1966 but raised in Manchester, NH. Though goofy as a child, Sandler never aspired to be a comedian until age 17 when his brother encouraged him to perform at a Boston comedy club.
|
|
He continued to perform after he left Boston to attend New York University and after graduation became a regular on MTV's humorous game show, "Remote Control". He starred in his first film, Going Overboard, in 1989, and later became a Saturday Night Live cast member during the 1990-91 season, creating such characters as "Cajun Man," "Opera Man" and "Canteen Boy". |
|
His first comedy album, the Grammy-nominated They're All Gonna Laugh At You, became an instant hit and expanded his fan base among young people through offensive songs and sketches (like the infamous "Thanksgiving Song").
|
|
|
Throughout the '90s, Sandler enjoyed great success and became a ubiquitous presence on screen (in films like Billy Madison, Happy Gilmore, The Wedding Singer and Big Daddy), and on
the record (What The Hell Happened To Me) |
