"My baby self weaned despite me trying to keep up the nursing! I find it so refreshing to hear Gwen talk about how hard she works to lose weight and keep herself in top shape. She looks great and has a beautiful family."

“I sit there and play princesses with my daughter, and I never told her anything about a princess, ever. Whereas I go to my brother’s house, and he’s got two boys…I walk in the front door, and I instantly get punched in the nuts.”

Adam Sandler Says Sadie Unimpressed By Elmo Greeting

For Adam Sandler, story time with Sadie Madison — his 2 ½-year-old daughter with wife Jackie — is often an exercise in futility. “I read to my kid, but I can’t stand reading,” the 42-year-old actor explains. “I read like a page or two and I’ll be like, ‘Are we done?’ And she’s like…’Yeah.’” As he’s shared previously, Adam’s stories rarely lull Sadie to sleep — and Jackie is often needed to undo the damage!

“I tell these stories to her and she goes bananas when I’m supposed to be putting her to sleep. Then I see it’s never going to happen and I’ll call my wife, and scream down the hall, ‘Hey you’ve gotta help out here, she’s riled up! Put the kid out.’ Then I walk [away].”

During an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! late last week, Adam shared that he recently taped an episode of Sesame Street in order to please Sadie. At the end of the day he even taped a personalized greeting with Elmo, his daughter’s favorite character, but — like Adam’s bedtime stories — it didn’t have the desired effect. “It was unbelievable. I’m in the shot, the Sesame Street street sign is right behind me, it’s me and Elmo, Elmo’s talking to Sadie….it’s the greatest thing ever,” Adam recalled with a laugh. “My kid watches it, and goes, ‘Where’s Barney?’”

“I went, ‘What? I got you Elvis and you wanted The Beatles. It is pathetic. I thought I was the man and it went away quickly.”

In addition to Sadie, Adam and Jackie are parents to Sunny Madeline, 8 ½-weeks. Adam’s new movie Bedtime Stories opened Christmas Day.

    He is just TOO hilarious! I was laughing out loud! I can so picture him with his daughter. I’m sure she just has such a fun little personality :)

  2. XOXO Says:

    Where is Barney?? LOL LOL this is just to funny!!!

  3. Stephany Says:

    HAHA! Adam is a funny guy and his daughter seems like she got his sense of humor! She seems like a cool kid. I love it, “Where’s Barney?” HAHA!

  4. kathy Says:

    Why does Adam always refer to his daughter as “the kid”? I haven’t seen one article or interview where he speaks her name -Sadie.

  5. Erika Says:

    Kathy- He actually says her name in this interview-
    “….it’s me and Elmo, Elmo’s talking to Sadie…”. I’m sure when he refers to her as “the kid” he is just trying to be funny and doesn’t mean any harm :-)

    Aww he wanted to be the man and it went away quickly.Great little story.Adam and Sadie appear to be very close.

  7. Sammy-xx Says:

    I can’t wait to see Bedtime Stories. Adam is so funny.

    He’s called Sadie the Kid since she was born, I think it’s cute. My dad hardly ever called me by my real name when I was little, it was always ‘The Pest’ or ‘The Baby’ and I was the youngest.

  8. Allison Says:

    I saw Bedtime Stories last night and it was very funny… I noticed Sadie and Jackie had another 2-second cameo in the movie! I wonder if he will show Sunny in his next movie?
