TikTok viral videos are mostly composed of hacks and dance video challenges, but this recent one, involves Adam Sandler, IHOP, and a waitress that told him he has to wait 30 minutes to get a seat. The video has amassed more than 9.7 million views in TikTok, which was posted by user Dayanna Rodas, and also the one attending to the Hollywood actor.
HOLLYWOOD, CALIFORNIA - DECEMBER 11: Actor Adam Sandler at the premiere of A24's "Uncut Gems" at The Dome at Arclight Hollywood on December 11, 2019 in Hollywood, California.
It is not every day, a person gets to encounter a popular celebrity or personality on the streets or in a restaurant, especially if it is not in the Hollywood or Los Angeles, California area. The center of film and television in the United States is in the Sunny State over at the west side, so it is pretty rare for actors to pop up in New York's east side.
Adam Sandler Got Turned Away at IHOP in Viral TikTok Video
Dayanna Rodas recently posted a video that was only three days ago (Monday, Apr. 25) via TikTok that already has 9.7 million views and massive comments that talked about the occurrence. That certain event was a real-life Hollywood actor dawning a busy IHOP full of customers that has a 30-minute wait time to get seated and served.
This particular event happened in an International House of Pancakes (IHOP) branch in New York City, which is thousands of miles away from the center of the glitz and glamour of the country. Adam Sandler is known to be a Brooklyn native, so it is only natural for him to stay in New York during this pandemic, especially if he has no pending projects to shoot.
The comments section focused more on Adam Sandler's down-to-Earth attitude and behavior where he understood the waitress's (Rodas) explanation and went away instead of throwing a fit. People commended the actor (who is known to have an estimated net worth of $420 million throughout his career) for not using the "I am an actor" card.
Adam Sandler is the Baggy-Jeans, Hoodie-Wearing Dad You Encounter Everyday
In an everyday setting, people can encounter the "typical Dad" that wears old-school baggy jeans or cargo shorts and a hoodie, which was a plain fit that can be spotted by almost anyone in the streets. Instead of flashy designer clothes or flaunting accessories, Adam Sandler was seen sporting this "typical Dad" look and dining in a chain restaurant.
The 54-year-old lead actor of Netflix's "Uncut Gems," "50 First Dates," "Waterboy," and more should have been demanding a seat, comments say, but has opted to go out fashionably and respectful as ever. TikTok may have been the center of challenges, dance craze, and flexing riches, but this viral video of Adam Sandler shows it can be a diverse platform as it is.
TikTok has been the center of many viral videos over the past year and months, where it has grown as a platform despite the many disputes it faced amidst the Oracle-ByteDance operating rights fiasco last 2020.
