American actor and comedian Adam Sandler admitted that he gets nervous when he`s around pop superstar Taylor Swift. `The Hollywood Reporter` reported that during a recent interview on SiriusXM`s `Conan O`Brien Needs a Friend`, Sandler and host Conan O`Brien discussed childhood idols and how contemporary celebs don`t always have the same impact on them.
“What I have found is that people can be absolute icons, make the biggest stars in the world, but if they came along five years ago, I`m very happy to meet them, but they don`t have that effect on me. I`m not like, `Oh my, oh my God,` you know, the way I would be from anybody that I saw [growing up],” Conan said.
However, the actor from `Murder Mystery 2` admitted that he has a crush on one 21st-century superstar. “You know what — Taylor Swift,” the legendary comedian and actor said.
“Because what she means to my kids, I get it a little fuckin` jumpy. Just `cause I don`t wanna blow it for my kids. So I`m a little like `Taylor, Taylor,` like I talk a little too loud or something. I don`t stay as cool as I can.” Conan said in response, “Yeah, I can see that. Yeah, she`s, I mean, she`s this whole other level now.”
Sandler, who has teen daughters Sadie and Sunny with his wife, Jackie Sandler, compared Swift`s tremendous popularity to 1960s `Beatlemania as per `The Hollywood Reporter`. “People talk about The Beatles of it all and her. I mean, man, so many smash hits,” the `Spaceman` actor added. “There`s not a word my kids don`t know.”
While Sandler prefers to stay humble, he has achieved enormous renown for his stand-up humour, characters on Saturday Night Live, and loveable yet funny performances in films such as `Grown Ups,` `Happy Gilmore,` `You Are Not Invited to My Bat Mitzvah` and others. He recently got the People`s Icon Award at the 2024 People`s Choice Awards.
The actor has previously been seen supporting Swift`s Eras Tour with his two children, attending one of the Grammy-winning singer`s gigs at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles last year as well as The Eras Tour: The Movie premiere.
