Adam Sandler got downright serious as he told us about bombing on stage in his early days.
Adam was at the National Board Review Gala Wednesday night in NYC and revealed what fueled his drive to be a successful stand-up comedian … despite crashing and burning on the Sunset Strip.
The Grammy-nominated comedian says when he was a kid trying to make it, there was a 50-50 chance the friends he’d invite to come watch him would leave saying “Adam sucks.”
The struggle was real … he says it happened for 3 solid years. Adam ultimately found his footing … and it was comedian Dennis Miller who discovered Adam in WeHo at the Comedy Club. Dennis, BTW, is the one who recommended Adam to ‘SNL’ honcho Lorne Michaels … and the rest was history.
Adam also talked about Eddie Murphy‘s comeback to stand-up comedy … saying he’s confident it’s only a matter of time until Eddie makes his triumphant return to stand-up.
Eddie’s definitely shown signs he’s headed in that direction.
