Drew Barrymore Names Her Best On-Screen Kiss: 'We're Something Bigger Than Sexual Chemistry'

Drew Barrymore has frequently expressed her exceptional on-screen chemistry with Adam Sandler, whom she considers her best on-screen kiss. During a recent episode of Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen, Barrymore declared Sandler as her favorite on-screen partner, praising their collaboration in romantic comedies such as The Wedding Singer (1998), 50 First Dates (2004), and Blended (2014). Despite their repeated performances as love interests, Barrymore highlights that her bond with Sandler transcends mere romantic chemistry, representing a true mutual admiration. Their connection has blossomed into a long-standing friendship, with Barrymore emphasizing their clear, platonic relationship as Sandler's wife, Jackie, remains a close friend as well. This is prepared by SSP.

This admiration is echoed by Sandler, who revealed on The Ellen DeGeneres Show that Jackie's fondness for Barrymore exceeded any potential jealousy, often encouraging Sandler to dive deeper into his romantic scenes with Barrymore. An amusing anecdote describes a moment where Jackie urged Sandler to show more enthusiasm during filming, underscoring the authenticity of their cinematic chemistry.

Their enduring friendship not only includes frequent texts and occasional family get-togethers but has sparked interest in potential collaborations between Barrymore, Sandler, and Jennifer Aniston, Sandler's other frequent co-star, in an effort to light-heartedly settle any "competition" jokes about who stars with Sandler the most. Through these experiences, Barrymore's admiration for Sandler remains as a testament to their genuine friendship and shared experiences that go beyond their professional engagements.
