Adam Sandler once again showcased why he’s considered a comedy legend at the 2025 Oscars—this time by orchestrating a side-splitting exit after Conan O’Brien called him out for his laid-back attire. While Hollywood’s stars dazzled in elegant gowns and sharp suits, Sandler arrived in his signature comfy style: a light blue hoodie, shorts, and Steph Curry sneakers. O’Brien couldn’t resist making a jab, humorously suggesting that Sandler looked like someone playing video poker at 2 a.m.
Sandler quickly fired back, saying, “Nobody even thought about what I was wearing until you mentioned it.” As O’Brien continued his playful teasing, Sandler dramatically stood up, announced he was leaving, and invited the audience to join him for a midnight basketball game—even quipping that the character from Nosferatu was on his team!
Before making his exit, he paused to shout “CHALAMET!” in Timothée Chalamet’s ear, referencing a moment from the Golden Globes where Sandler’s unique pronunciation of Chalamet’s name turned into an inside joke.
The staged skit had the audience in stitches, reaffirming that Sandler’s effortless humor and lovable silliness will always steal the spotlight!
