Adam Sandler and Wife Jackie’s ‘Happy Gilmore 2’ Premiere Outing Draws Attention – Photos

The family hit the green carpet at Jazz at Lincoln Center in New York City, posing in front of Netflix signage and a custom “Happy Gilmore” golf cart. But while the star of the film embraced his signature no-frills style, the contrast between his look and Jackie’s had social media buzzing.

Adam, meanwhile, opted for a tropical-print button-down shirt in neon shades of pink, yellow, and blue, paired with peach-colored basketball shorts, white crew socks, and sneakers. He accessorized with an ice hockey stick — a cheeky nod to the film.

Another netizen commented, “She looks like Jennifer [Aniston].” A fifth expressed the same sentiment, revealing that they mistook Jackie for Jennifer and calling Adam’s wife a “beautiful lady.”

One netizen even went as far as to claim that the only reason the “Happy Gilmore 2” star was married to Jackie was because she looked like Jennifer.

“Really Adam!!! You can’t get dressed appropriately for one night? You are embarrassing your wife and your family! You’re being very disrespectful!!” another person shared.

While some netizens weren’t fans of what Adam wore to the “Happy Gilmore 2” world premiere, the Hollywood star has proven before that he does clean up well — when he really wants.

On February 16, 2025, Adam and Jackie attended the “SNL50: The Anniversary Special” in New York City and the couple showcased their coordinated style on the red carpet, capturing the attention of fans and onlookers alike.

Jackie, 50, stood out in a black sheer gown with a halter neckline and vertical velvet paneling. The form-fitting dress featured a plunging cutout detail at the chest and extended to the floor, revealing sheer sections beneath the geometric velvet design.

Adam, known for his casual style, surprised many by wearing a classic black tuxedo with a crisp white dress shirt and a black bow tie.

He paired the suit with polished black dress shoes, completing his formal ensemble. His neatly trimmed beard and relaxed expression added to his polished yet familiar charm.

The couple’s appearance quickly became a topic of discussion on social media. Many fans commented on Adam’s formal attire, as he is often seen in casual wear, including basketball shorts and oversized T-shirts.

One TikTok user wrote, “He owns a SUIT?!?!” Another user focused on Jackie’s outfit, saying, “That dress is EVERYTHING!” However, not all reactions were positive, as one user commented, “That dress does not flatter her.”

On Instagram, reactions were similarly mixed. Some fans noted a resemblance between the couple, with one comment reading, “Sandler and his wife look like twins.”

Some fans admired Adam’s rare formal appearance, with one remarking, “Aaawwww he looks so cute in dress clothes vs the bball shorts [sic]!!!”

Compliments also poured in for Jackie, with one user noting, “Mrs Sandler [sic] you never age!” Another admirer added, “That lady she’s such a pretty woman [sic].”

Jackie and Adam Sandler and latest outing has once again sparked conversation, proving that even a simple wardrobe change can capture the attention of fans.
