WATCH: Adam Sandler Proudly Watches Daughter Sunny Steal The Show With Gabby Barrett Cover

Adam Sandler has always made it a point to include his wife and kids in his various projects, from his movies to his live comedy shows. During a recent stop in his 2025 You’re My Best Friend Tour, he proved that once again when he brought out a very special guest: his youngest daughter Sunny.  

The 16-year-old took the stage in Milwaukee as her proud dad stepped back to let her have the spotlight. He strummed the guitar while she belted out the lyrics to Gabby Barrett’s breakout hit “I Hope” and earned loud cheers from the crowd.

The lyrics find the song’s Barrett wishing her former partner the best. However things quickly take an emotional turn when she adds, “And then I hope she cheats, like you did on me.” Sunny powerfully delivers her rendition of the breakup anthem that blends vulnerability, heartbreak, and revenge.

Co-written by Barrett alongside Jon Nite and Zach Kale, “I Hope,” appears on Barrett’s record-breaking debut album, Goldmine, and has since been certified 8X PLATINUM.

The users in the comment section of the fan-captured video were quick to call out how prideful Sandler appeared as he watched his little girl show off her talent.

“Adam is like look at this cool thing I made”

“He is such a girl dad 🥹”

“LOOK AT PROUD HE IS 😭”

“Sandler looks like he’s just full of love”

Fans weren’t the only ones who were impressed as the country star also shared her excitement over the by the father-daughter performance. She posted the clip to her Instagram story, writing “Love this @adamsandler maybe Sunny and I can sing it together sometime soon…;)”

While Adam Sandler is most notably known for his comedic acting skills, he has also recorded several songs over the years including “The Chanukah Song,” “Somebody Kill Me,” “I Wanna Grow Old With You” and more. It seems that his daughter has also caught the musical bug.

This isn’t the first time they have performed together either. She previously joined him on stage over the years to sing covers of songs by artists like Olivia Rodrigo, Adele, Taylor Swift and more.

Sandler tied the knot with his wife, Jackie, in 2003. The couple met on the set of the 1999 film Big Daddy, where Jackie played a waitress. They have since built a family with their two children, Sadie, 19, and Sunny, 16.

Both of his daughters have also dabbled in the acting world, most recently appearing in their dad’s Netflix sequel, Happy Gilmore 2.
