Authenticity appears to be the key to the effortless chemistry Barrymore, 50, and Sandler, 59, share on-screen. In both romantic comedies, the pair portray love interests, with Sandler delivering some of his most memorable serenades to Barrymore\u2019s character.<\/p>\n
“I won’t let you play it for me beforehand and we do it for real live on camera,” she explained. “That’s the very first time. So when you see me hearing a song \u2018Forgetful Lucy\u2019 or \u2018I Wanna Grow Old With You\u2019 in \u2018The Wedding Singer,\u2019 that is my natural reaction.”<\/p>\n
