Adam Sandler, his family (his wife and daughter are in the flick as are a bunch of other Sandlers), and Drew Barrymore (with her hubby Will Kopelman) hit the red carpet Wednesday night at the TCL Chinese Theatre for the premiere of their latest comedy—Blended. Fellow castmates Bella Thorne, Kevin Nealon, Terry Crews and Joel McHale also popped by to check out the final product. After a few guffaws, everyone headed across the street to the Tropicana bar at the Hollywood Roosevelt. Hooters Girls (they are in the movie, too) served fried goodness (boneless wings, shrimp) to the notables partying around the pool. Blended opens in theaters today. Check out the pics...
