Drew Barrymore reveals who was her best on-screen kiss, says it's more than 'hot, sexual chemistry'

Fox News07-02-2025
While Drew Barrymore has had her share of on-screen kisses with various actors throughout her career, there's only one person who tops the list.
During an appearance on Wednesday's episode of "Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen," Barrymore opened up about her chemistry with longtime friend Adam Sandler and explained why their onscreen love connection goes beyond goes beyond "sexual chemistry."
"I mean, I love that Adam Sandler and I are so platonic," said Barrymore, who has starred alongside the veteran actor in "The Wedding Singer" (1998), "50 First Dates" (2004), and "Blended" (2014). "We never dated, his wife Jackie is my dear friend."
"But I love being in films with him, because I think we're representing something bigger than hot, sexual chemistry. We're representing true admiration of another person," she added.
In 2022, Barrymore welcomed Sandler, whom she introduced as "the best cinematic soulmate and partner" on the Drewbar segment of "The Drew Barrymore Show."
During the segment, the duo chatted about their history together and possibly joining forces again to make another film.
The actress also talked about wanting to do another movie with Sandler on an episode of the "Chicks in the Office" podcast in 2022.
"I want to do another movie with Sandler," Barrymore said on the podcast. "We've done it every 10 years, and it's about to be 10 years."
"I think that would make me so happy," the actress added.

How Adam Sandler subtly honors Cameron Boyce in 'Happy Gilmore 2'

Adam Sandler is keeping Cameron Boyce's memory alive in "Happy Gilmore 2." The comedy sequel, which hit Netflix on Friday, July 25, includes a subtle tribute to Boyce, who died in 2019 at age 20. Early in the movie, Sandler's Happy Gilmore checks in at a golf course, and Boyce can be seen on a television screen that the staffers are watching. The footage appears to have been taken from "Jessie," the Disney Channel series that Boyce starred on from 2011 to 2015. Boyce, who also played the son of Sandler's character in the "Grown Ups" movies, died in his sleep from a seizure related to an ongoing medical condition. 'Happy Gilmore 2': The wildest celebrity cameos, from Travis Kelce to Eminem "The world is now undoubtedly without one of its brightest lights, but his spirit will live on through the kindness and compassion of all who knew and loved him," Boyce's family said at the time. "We are utterly heartbroken and ask for privacy during this immensely difficult time as we grieve the loss of our precious son and brother." 'I'm just proud': Adam Sandler cast his daughters in 'Happy Gilmore 2' In an X post in 2019, Sandler remembered Boyce as "the nicest, most talented, and most decent kid around," adding, "Loved that kid. Cared so much about his family. Cared so much about the world. Thank you, Cameron, for all you gave to us. So much more was on the way. All our hearts are broken." Sandler previously honored his former costar at the end of his 2020 comedy "Hubie Halloween." During the credits, the movie displayed a photo of Boyce along with text that read, "In loving memory of Cameron Boyce. Gone way too soon and one of the kindest, coolest, funniest, and most talented kids we knew. You live on forever in our hearts and are truly missed every day." Contributing: Hannah Yasharoff
