The Kennedy Center's Mark Twain Prize, which is named to honor one of the world’s greatest humorists, was awarded to Adam Sandler at a gala performance featuring some of the biggest names in comedy -- including Chris Rock, Conan O'Brien, Ben Stiller, Dana Carvey, Pete Davidson, Drew Barrymore, Jennifer Anniston, Idina Menzel, David Spade, and more -- on March 19, 2023, and aired nationally on CNN on March 26, 2023.
The Mark Twain Prize for American Humor recognizes individuals who have had an impact on American society in ways similar to the distinguished 19th-century novelist and essayist Samuel Clemens, best known as Mark Twain. As a social commentator, satirist, and creator of characters, Clemens was a fearless observer of society, who startled many while delighting and informing many more with his uncompromising perspective on social injustice and personal folly.
“Adam Sandler has entertained audiences for over three decades with his films, music, and his tenure as a fan favorite cast member on SNL,” said Kennedy Center President Deborah F. Rutter about this year’s recipient. “Adam has created characters that have made us laugh, cry, and cry from laughing. I am looking forward to a laughter-filled evening like no other as we celebrate his career at a ceremony that is sure to bring together the best in comedy.”

The part when Chris said "The greatest thing in the world when Adam invited him to hang" that part got Adam. Damn, even got me. Congrats Sandman!!!
"It wasn't Selma..."
Harden up
@@smokinnplatez1426 Haha ok nancy
Adam almost lost it for real, which made me cry like a baby!
Sandler didn't realize how big an impact that had on chris Rock ..Sandler seems like the kind of guy who is kind to everyone
The Worst kept secret in the world is how close Chris Rock and Adam Sandler are.
True friends.
Do u know them personally? No? Then stfu
What are you talking about, theres no secret- nor is it even a comical observation... stop it dude, please?
@@mondop5270 r/woooosh
Yes, you're right! Two of my fav comedians and I had no idea either. It all makes sense.
@@mondop5270 Stop being upset about things that you have absolutely no reason to be upset about... It's a meaningless waste of time and no one cares.
Rock and Sandler have remained friends in a business that destroys friendships and relationships #Respect
True
I'm telling you
This Chris Rock tribute to Adam Sandler is actually very touching. Great, empathetic storytelling, honesty, recognition of game, a sprinkling of politics, showing affection for a dear friend. Classic Chris Rock!👍🏾🎭🏆🌻💕
I concur with your sentiment 100%♡
Australia.
🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Even those adjectives won't fulfill his choices.😂
"And he's been lettin' me hang ever since," really moved me.
The way he and Adam look at each other when he mentioned Adam asking him to hang out is pretty special. They mean a great deal to each other - the type of friendship we all deserve. A really beautiful tribute!
Well said...
Adam is something else the love for his friends and his values are evident in his movies he's a real hero he doesn't need to work out and he doesn't need flashy clothes. Always in a t and trackies ans he's handsome in anything because his personality is enough and talent x ❤❤❤❤
I love his message about "being invited over." That resonates with me. I get it Chris. I was that same little girl who never did get invited over so I know the importance of how good it feels when someone finally does... even as a fully grown woman. Adam owns my heart for being the kid who invites you over :)
Yep, same here. I'm a grown ass woman, but being invited over wasn't something I got a lot of either. Rock knows,and that's why we threw our support behind him after Will Smith hit him. If someone hurts Chris, they have to answer to us. Blessings to you!❤️✡️
@@CutterOfGems Couldn't agree more! Blessings to you, as well, my friend. And just so you know... I'd invite you over after school 😊❤
Come to think of it maybe I didn't get invited either but always invited my self to someone else house 😅😅. Never wait for others to say hi or ask you to go somewhere you want to go. 😅
And the funny thing is, you're actually a guy.
I love that Adam Sandler surrounded himself with real friends. These are the comedic legends I grew up with, I still remember sneaking to watch Billy Madison because my foster mother thought it was too crass and stupid and wouldn't let me watch it, good times.
Billy Madison was too crass and stupid. Worse Adam Sandler movie.
It WAS crass and stupid. That's what made it great 😃
@@tonyg76 Grow a sense of humor dude. You probably boo at Monty Python movies
@@brianmiller5750 Not my taste. My Mom and I both hated it. We chalked it up to it being his first movie. Just because my sense of humor is not yours does not mean I do not have one!
She was right. It is stupid and crass. And that is why it is one of my favorite movies.
Adam saying "I love you buddy" at the end looked so genuine. Love both of these guys
He absolutely should’ve gotten an Oscar for uncut gems. I think they don’t want to give it to him because he made all those funny movies but that just shows how versatile he is. He also made Spanglish and punch drunk love.
I’m not a fan of his comedy movies but he was great in uncut gems.
💯
No. He was good, but not top six performances worthy of an Oscar nomination good. He was up against people that could act. Adam Driver for Marriage Story, Antonio Banderas for Pain and Glory, Taron Egerton for Rocketman, Leonardo DiCaprio for Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, Jonathan Pryce for The Two Popes, Christian Bale for Ford v Ferrari, Eddie Murphy for Dolemite Is My Name. And how about the one that won? Joaquin Phoenix's Joker. You're trying to say Sandler's performance was better? No.
Reign on me is so underrated
@@frankfurter7260 alot more then just great
Chris Rock never fail to make a joke , then sprinkle it with some emotion and humanity
Absolutely spot on 👏
To have Chris Rock praise you to that level and be so grateful to you…that’s an achievement.
Well, part of it was praising Jews, I think Chris Rock spent some time hanging aroudn with antisemitic friend kanye that wants to see jewish children hurt, and that Jews own/control the media, and Chris came up with a plan to just praise Jews (moreso than praising Adam), in the hope to get higher up. Chris knew that his demographic(blacks), have a reputation for antisemitism, heck, kanye is even his friend. And he thought it'd be funny to say the opposite and praise Jews. There was a lot of focus on Jews rather than on Adam himself. Any time he did praise Adam it was usually turned to praising Jews. Kind of a calculatiing going on there.
@@boliussa To show how dumb your comment is, "Blacks" can be Jewish too!
Only to have Chris Rock backstabing you later on right? Michael Jackson basically took Christ Rock under his wings, only 20 years later, Christ Rock made a mock of Michael Jackson on unsubstantiated claims.
I mean, whether MJ actually commited crimes or not, it is at the very least, unsettled, and as a friend, the very least thing you can do is shut up about it, rather than making it a part of your comedic routine.
@@f1king836 It was a joke, you're obviously one of those people who get easily offended by "comedians".
@@f1king836 KRplus comments are a cesspool of negativity. Watch the damn video and shut up.
Just realized that when you get an academy award, you just get the award yourself. Talk for a couple of moments and walk out. This Mark Twain Prize seems like a better deal. A proper dedication.
Chris Rock talking about that one kid he made friends with, reminds me of his tv show "Everybody Hates Chris". Funny show back then 😂
That's based on a real friend of Chris'. He lives in Arizona (probably Phoenix). When Chris did his tour in 2008, there was a news article of his friend going to his show in Phoenix and hanging out w/ Chris after the show.
He should have walked up and slapped him.😮
@kawaiiafangirl Adam.lives in Newport Beach as well. See him at the Fashion Center Mall often. Used to see Kobe too. Sold a set of golf clubs to Bruce Willis. Good place to hang on the weekends and spot them. I busted Goldie Hawn in a disguise but she was super sweet about it. Gave me a half hug. And many more...
Yep
I see what you did
Just how Adam was looking at Chris you can tell it's a true friendship and they truly love each other like brothers. ❤️
Chris Rock!!! To be able to finesse the Oscar night craziness with a joke and make it funny, while acknowledging Pelosi's nightmare was comedy gold! Love the comedians' circle of friends and happy for Adam Sandler!
Damn near fell out of my chair when he opened on that! The NUANCE to it! ❤
pelosi's nightmare? you mean the getting hammered by his boytoy or all of his and his wife's insider trading criminal activities coming to light?
Pelosi's nightmare lol
was will smith on the event?
@@c.j.giordano2129 an intruder attacked him with a hammer during a home invasion where he was looking for Nancy Pelosi. He was hospitalized w/ a fractured skull. I think Rock was drawing similarities around getting attacked...related to anger about a woman! Just my 2 cents!
It's nice to see how happy Adam is and how dialed in to his friend of so many years. It's very warming. The more I see of Sandler, the more I think he's a pretty decent fellow.
It's pretty well known that he's one of the friendlier and down to earth celebrities. Gotta love how he goes on shows like Conan wearing Old Navy shorts and a t-shirt. He seems 100% authentic.
Dude everyone knows that Sandler is one of the nicest celebrities out there. Unpretentious, treats everyone the same, and plays ball on the weekends with all the "regular folk".
I didn't like him for years, despite liking a few of his comedies, and then I seen him on Norm Macdonald's podcast. Dude was the only person that was ever nice to Adam Eget, and right there I liked him. Dude doesn't have a bad bone in his body
Awww... that was so wholesome. They're a true friends.
@Maria CANCER Oh, I'm sorry to hear that. But I think you commented on the wrong person.
I'm not a content creator and I have no videos in my channel :(
I'll hope you will get through it and win the fight. I really hope so.
I love Adam Sandler and Chris Rock. Congratulations!
And I hate them both….See nobody cares😂
@@Wisconsin1 u do
Chris got me tearing up over this speech, very well done, and to the point.
He starts crying at the very end too, you can see it
Dayum, Chris Rock....that was absolutely heartfelt, down to earth & humbling. What a beautiful tribute to your lifelong friend Adam Sandler. ❤
Chris Rock makes me want to mop floors at a comedy club
That one spot is so shiny 😂
Chris Rock makes me want to touch his peepee without permission
This comment right here is not a bad start. You got potential lmao
😂😂😂😂
NEVER stop making jokes at Will's expense.
Never ever
When he made that joke It didn’t remind me of Smith.😂
A brother💖gotta have a brothers back.👍😎
I hope it keeps going for generations to come. All jadas fault. That beeeeeeoootch.
who is Will?
Adam is my favorite all time actor. His loyalty to his team is so dope and all his movies are always a hit... a legend in my book
A fuckin Men! Been a fan since the beginning and my ass is going to see him in NJ next Thursday and I cannot wait!
There isn’t a movie from Chris rock or Adam sander that has been even remotely funny. Both are pylons and absolute trash when it comes to comedy.
@@htiek12 EXCEPT FOR HAPPY GILMORE, BILLY MADISON, AND BIG DADDY you mean obviously.
@@htiek12 when?
@@lolosaulala48 what are you talking about, when? How can you use the word ‘when’ replying to my comment, doesn’t even make sense.
Love both of them. So beautiful to see true friendship between such incredibly talented people.
I am a fan of both these guys and I also feel the Oscars have snubbed Adam Sandler. I watched Uncut Gems again yesterday. He should have at least got a nomination for that movie. Luv me some Adam and Chris.
Agreed. He was incredible in that film.
That was a good movie
Totally agree. I love when actors step out of their comfort zone and take on characters that they're usually typecasted for. I think Adam Sandler performance in this movie was awesome. I'm a recovering addict and loved how they put in the movie that anxiety that adrenaline Rush that you get when you score, or about to score. A+ movie 🍿✌🏼🙏🏼❤️😂
That's how to recognize someone. What a great tribute, you are left with 1. Adam is a fantastic comedian, one of the greats, and 2. Adam is a wonderful human being.
I heard he’s an a-hole to people, at least to my uncle who worked as night security to one of his apartments in Hollywood
I love Chris Rock and he's right, Oscars are a joke if they can't recognize the greatness of Adam Sandler.
The irony is that his Oscar-worthy performances are not the types of roles for which he was given the Twain Prize. Ditto for Robin Williams.
@@mc76 it's not irony, it's called logic. Oscars are given based on peformances in movies, Twain is for overall impact in comedy
I also think he's done hosting the oscars so he can finally say what he wants truthfully and more openly at other awards. The best part is, since the allowed the will Smith slap and failed at security and removing an assualter from the victim, and instead rewarded him, they kinda have to let him make fun of them. Imagine how many lawyers probably contacted Chris asking him to sue. Lol
He never paid enough for one. If you think anything in Hollywood is real you are very ignorant. It’s. All. A. Ruse.
This award is a joke, too. All these award shows are a bunch of rich people in fancy clothes, eating fancy food, jerking each other off. I love Sandler and Rock, but award shows are kinda gross, to me anyhow. Maybe I'm just jealous 'cause I wasn't invited!
That intro by Chris Rock, was EPIC. I can "really" tell he loves Adam Sandler. No doubt. I could hear it in his voice, as he spoke. Rock a real one for the tribute, and I could tell from Adam's reaction, how every word is true. Adam is his brother, and Rock is 💯....
Adam Sandler is the friend we all wish we had. He's such an amazing person. Seems like once you're his friend.. you instantly become his family!
Adam is a true friend. Instead of making movies with big celebrities, he always tries to put his friends in the movies❤❤❤❤
I had the pleasure of meeting Adam several times during a movie shoot he did in my town. Kindest nicest dude ever and never forgot that the fans keep him fed and he always shows thanks for it. Great guy.
Gotta LOVE ADAM SANDLER and CHRIS ROCK. The love they have for each other is spectacular
Growing up a 90s kid, his movies will always a have a special spot. To this day if happy Gilmore is on… I’m watching it lol
I quote billy madison almost daily
True. Me too 😊
@@BrxIghtside Shampoo is better, it goes on first and cleans the hair...
That speech brought a tear to my eye. Heartfelt is an understatement.
A simple and beautiful tribute to his friend. I love both of them!
ill forever feel like uncut gems was robbed for a oscar that movie was amazing
I'd be a hypocrite if I didn't object to your premise of being "robbed". The Academy is comprised of 7k+ voting members and the consensus was that another movie was more deserving. So no one is ever "robbed" of the honor (I say this every year after awards are presented. 😋)
Reign over me was also a phenomenal movie that was robbed
he should've won for Punch Drunk Love. Uncut Gems was good but he's been better imo
Joaquin Phoenix - Joker vs Adam Sandler - Uncut Gems. To say he was robbed is a big exaggeration
@@awesomebeast7509 I wouldn't say he was robbed of an Oscar since who cares bout the Oscars anymore, but he was most definitely robbed of a nomination for sure.
Uncut Gems was the type of comeback movie for Adam as an actor akin to Brendan Fraser's comeback this year.
That Wilt Chamberlain joke....so simple and so good. 😅😅😅
Agreed. There's something insanely funny about a coach thinking Wilt Chamberlain is putting up a hondo on you because nobody knows who is supposed to be covering him.
Sandler actually changed it, look it up I won’t spoil it for you.
Two legends.two of my favourites.
Great speech Chris.lots of love and good wishes from India.
The best of the best Adam, surrounded by great people takes a great person and friend to be the heart of their personal and professional lives 👏😍
I love Chris Rock he's always funny.
Truly a G.O.A.T. 👏👏👏👏. Adam is something else. Completely diverse and his acting will shock you. He’s so good in his dramatic roles.
Well deserved honor. Continued blessings. Cheers, from Brooklyn, NY 🇵🇷
Adam Sandler is getting Mark Twain prize and most of his friends were there. I'm missing Norm MacDonald very badly
Norm and Farley. Imagine all the movies Adam and Chris could have made.
That opener is why Chris Rock is Chris Rock and nobody in the world can be like Chris Rock…
Totally 👊👍
That Paul Pelosi bit was hilarious 😂. You either know or you don't.
Even Paul was cracking up at that joke because it came so out of nowhere 😂😂😂
Can you elaborate pls, I am nit American :) I know about the attack in Pelosi house.
@JG yes 😂
Oh man, I tried looking it up !! I came here searching for it! What is it ??
@@rahulsagarpv Paul Pelosi is married to career politician Nancy Pelosi. He infamously was attacked by an alleged intruder in their home in San Francisco with a hammer. Video surveillance shows the attack. It happened in the fall right before the elections in the US.
Love love love Adam and movie friends and his actual family God bless you all ❤
The best part is they seem like real friends. Look at Tim Meadows up there , Sandler is a genuine dude. Love to see this !
2 legends ! Sandler and Chris rock ! Loved it ! ❤
Comedians are some of the best humans
What I like best about Adam Sandler, is that in all his movies, his big heart is on display. Chris Rock just confirmed that Sandler is a Good Guy.
Another brilliant and outstanding human ..LOVE CHRIS, his grace and presence is awesome!!! Love that they are lifelong friends...love them both.
I love Chris Rock and Adam Sandler both. Two brilliant, hilarious, sweet people whose friendship is a beacon of love onto us all. Thank you both for being you. ❤︎
I had to watch this a few times because it made me feel good to see true friendship displayed in a very public way.
really? part of it looked like he wanted to try to heap praise on Jews generally, maybe because he thinks they run the media. So he thinks he's smarter than his anti-semitic friend kanye, and maybe he is.
@@boliussa 30 years of friendship needs to be celebrated. Adam was touched. Yeah, Chris probably tried to make up for the anti-semitic stuff coming out of that idiot's mouth but so what?
@@breal7277 If Chris Rock was so bothered by what came out of Kanye's mouth, then he wouldn't have been seen hanging out with Kanye soon after. Chris should have just made it about Adam. He made it partly about praising Jews probably because he sees them as having power in hollywood, and he thought he was being smart(maybe he was). You don't "undo" what Kanye did by doing a standup routine about how great you think Jews are. You give your honest views about it. Rather than hanging out with the guy. And when Chris Rock is seen hanging out with him it's all the more important for him to give his honest views on it. Trump was condemned for having dinner with Kanye and Fuentes. Chris Rock gets away with it because there are lower expectations for his demographic.
@@boliussa You don't have friends that say stupid things sometimes? I think the point is that the 30 year friendship between Adam and Chris is to be celebrated. It takes effort to maintain a friendship that lasts that long, especially in Hollywood.
3:10 “Hey, we’re going over to my dorm, you wanna hang? And he’s been lettin’ me hang ever since!”
Two greats. Eddie Murphy and Robin Williams too.
And he's such a great human being too he helped so many celebrities when they were in need of work
Wat am amazing guy he must be to have so many of the best at comedy to be with him for so many years. He’s really the best
Speaks volumes about him as a person and his character ❤❤❤
salute to Chris Rock & Adam Sandler 🤘🏼
Love how these guys have been friends for so long..a big fan of both guys. I'm glad they are both killing it and continue to have great careers.
He's so right, he was supposed to hate him, but just because of who they are, this is nice ppl, they love each other
chris rock is always funny. he's a professional. so calm, delivery is great, storytelling is good, pacing is nice, and closed nicely
I went to a private school in the middle of a city.. and I was 1 of like 5 black students and I also never got invited to shit.. and got left out and pictured myself their when people talked about things they did together.. I'm 35 now and I still find myself a loaner and depressed 😅 so that's dope for Adam for helping someone in need of friends
I'm sorry. please try finding kind people, maybe start out by looking for a group that shares your hobbies, passions, or interest.
I've been a loaner for many years, and it made me suffer tremendously. You don't want that. Trust me.
@Mendel Halsband yeah I think I'm stuck now.. it's more of a comfort zone now.. even if I tried I end up pushing people away... but thanks
I've been bench watching these speeches. I love this award. People actually get to speak and celebrate the award winner.
I already knew from stories that Adam is very down to earth, caring and friendly. Also from every speaker here you get to hear stories of how friendly he is.
Never stop including other people is what I take away from these. It means so much to a person to be included.
This crew is a huge part of my life since childhood. Big impact on my sense of humor. Thank you Sandler and friends for raising me
I'm from India and been watching Adam Sandlers movies for 20 years and for some reason I could relate to all the goofy characters he plays on screen. Thank you Adam for making us laugh all these years.Even though I'm thousands of miles away it's been like you've been a part of my life through your movies.
Same
Adam has very loyal and loving friends. Seems like great guy
It's beautiful the hard work that Chris Rock put in and he's one of the kings of comedy!
Two of the greatest right there. The Oscars can have Will I don’t care.
Will def one of the greatest
@Xavier B not any more.
@@xavierb9061 not anymore.an assailant cannot be "the greatest".
That was so wholesomely amazing. Gotta love it!
God bless you Rock!! You Crack me up everytime!
There's a quote I'll never forget: when you think you're good, you tell everybody; when you are good, they'll tell you.
Love this ☺️
I wish I had friends like Adam’s friends and I wish i had a friend like Adam. Looks like they had great times and love for one another for so many years. Nowadays you can only wish for 1 good genuine loyal friend but he’s got countless. He treats them all like his own family. Love Adam! Great man and great heart!
Chris can tell a story, just one long and funny story to capture the moment.
Adam is such a genuine guy… deserves it all!!
That first meeting with Sandler was probably within a year or two of the time I caught Adam Sandler at Catch a Rising Star in July 1988, as he was still playing a recurring role as a friend of the Theo character on the Cosby Show. Love this intro for triggering that memory.
Sandlers look at 3:14, you tell that Chris telling that part of the story meant everything to him.
This was wonderful. Gave me goosebumps
This was very well done, loving and genuine.
Love them Chris is amazing ❤
Adan Sandler deserves all those accolades and more!
He does.
Adam Sandler and Chris Rock have an amazing and real friendship 💙
Adam Sandler is an incredible, humble, normal guy.
If you haven't seen his acceptance speech from after this, you should watch it!! It's the most kind speech ever! He keeps friends for a lifetime, and is so sweet 💙💙💙💙
I hope Chris Rock knows how much the good, normal ppl love him!! And not psychos like Will and Jada..
Chris Rock's cameo in Zohan hits different after hearing this sincere testimonial ❤❤❤
I became a fan once I saw the movie “Just Go With It”. One of my favs to this day!
Who's got Wilt!?
Genius.
And just one line, that delivery is impeccable.
No one does it better than the Sandman
It maybe my lack of vocabulary , but i didn’t understand that joke
@@lifewithoutborders1348 Me neither. Can someone explain it, please?
@@Malachi_Risinger @lifewithoutborders yeah Wilt Chamberlain had 100 points which is just a ton of points to score in a game like he was shooting every time. The coach was emphatically like: WHO'S GOT WILT!!!?!? It's just kind of a little corny little fun joke that someone would have wrote when they're like 19 years old like who's guarding this guy is anybody playing defense on him he's got 100 points!!
Like at that point you just stop guarding everyone else in the whole team just goes on Wilt you know like why is no one doing that... Or with this line he said who's got Wilt!!!!?
@@lifewithoutborders1348 I gave the reply on the joke
@@MilesStoner Thank you! I never was much of a sports guy. lol.
So so happy Adam Sandler been appreciated he deserves it more than anyone common who makes all movies with his friends money involved 🙏🙏 respect I will do that once I'm rich just spend time with my friends ❤️
“Just me and you, Paul.” 🤣🤣🤣
When he called him "babe" I chuckled 😂
This adam sandler Bro team..is my Avenger's... Every of them...🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Very cool! Love this ❤
ive been a huge fan of adam for almost 3 decades.. he's a legend
love love love them both
Sandler and Rock making the world laugh since I remember! Never stop fellas!
I keep forgetting that Sandler delivered an incredible, Oscar worthy performance in Uncut Gems!
Something about their 30-year friendship is so heartwarming. There are people who knew him as a co-star on a movie they did once years ago that call him friend or people he became friends with 5 years ago... But, to hear from someone who grew up with him and they both became A-list celebrities, yet, still remain friends is amazingly touching.
Those guys are 2 of my favourites
He should have won an Oscar for "Reign on Me!" He was superb in that movie!
From comedy to drama this guy had done it all, one of the greatest actor ever
True friend,two legends,love them both 👊
Love them
Sm
I am not a big Adam Sandler fan, but he seems to be a solid person! Well done!!!🥰🥰🥰
How could you not be? Dude is undeniable
If anyone is deserving of a fan base, it's hilarious humanitarian Adam Sandler who has countless popular movies/projects under his belt.
Paul Pelosi the only guy who knows how I felt, NICE ONE! 🤣🤣🤣
