Adam Sandler: ‘Being Funny is a Curse’

Adam SandlerAdam Sandler thinks his comedic talent is a curse.

The comic actor claims he can make people laugh without even trying, meaning he isn’t always taken seriously.

Referring to his Funny People co-star Jonah Hill, Adam said, “I was in England doing a TV show with Jonah and towards the end of the show I had to run to catch the plane.

“I yelled across this big studio full of people, ‘Jonah, I got to go buddy, I got my plane to catch. It was great seeing you, have a safe trip yourself.’ The whole studio laughed about it.

“Even though I told everybody I was serious they didn’t stop laughing. Sometimes I don’t know what I am doing, but people seem to think it’s funny.”

It appears Adam’s problem affects all aspects of his life.

The 42-year-old star is no longer taken seriously by his daughters — three-year-old Sadie Madison and 10-month-old Sunny Madeline — because he dresses up in princess outfits when he reads them fairytales.

“I often slip into costume as the lead character in whatever bedtime story I am reading,” he said.

“This is a little weird because my daughters love Disney princesses. But you would be surprised at how good I look in a ball gown.”
