Piano prodigy Ryan Wang recently performed an extraordinary private concert for 101-year-old Dorothy Landry, months after he captivated audiences on “The Ellen Show” and graced the stage at Carnegie Hall. This special performance was organized by CBC Music, a Canadian digital music distributor, and featured five-year-old Ryan playing “Variations on an Inner Mongolian Folk Song” exclusively for Landry.
Although Dorothy had been an avid fan of Ryan since he was three years old, her hearing impairment made it difficult for her to fully enjoy his public performances. To address this issue, CBC Music arranged a private concert that gave Dorothy an intimate musical experience.
In a cozy atmosphere, Dorothy sat in her wheelchair while young Ryan performed beside her, clutching a large teddy bear and jumping with excitement. Ryan expressed to “Grandma Dorothy” how much it meant to him to play just for her, and her face beamed with joy at the personal touch of the performance.
Dorothy was keen to show her gratitude by calling Ryan a “very special little human” and sharing her excitement for his future performances. She also invited Ryan to visit her again after his upcoming trip to China and expressed her heartfelt thanks. This heartfelt exchange highlights the profound connections that music can create across generations and borders.
Adam Sandler’s Wife Jackie Stuns on Red Carpet – Fans Can’t Believe Her Jennifer Aniston Lookalike Vibes
Adam and Jackie Sandler recently walked the red carpet for the comedian’s latest stand-up special, and fans couldn’t help but notice that his wife looks strikingly similar to one of his frequent co-stars.
Many online users admitted they had to look twice at the photos, thinking at first that Adam was with his on-screen wife, Jennifer Aniston.
Keep reading to see what people are saying about Jackie, who just celebrated her 50th birthday on September 24!
Adam Sandler, 58, has worked with some of Hollywood’s top leading ladies, but the one who won his heart was Jackie Titone, an extra in the 1999 film *Big Daddy*.
Jackie, a model from Florida, began her acting career with a small role as Sally in Rob Schneider’s 1999 movie *Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo*.
It was Jackie’s role as a sports bar waitress in *Big Daddy*, the film starring Adam Sandler alongside twins Cole and Dylan Sprouse, that changed her life.
“22 years ago today we locked eyes and fell deep,” the former *Saturday Night Live* star wrote in a Facebook post celebrating the early days of their relationship. The post, dated July 31, 2020, continued, “Look forward to the next 22, young lady. Love you my forever girl.”
Adam and Jackie got married on June 22, 2003, in a star-studded event with guests like Jennifer Aniston and the late Rodney Dangerfield.
The real star of the wedding ceremony, however, was Adam Sandler’s dog, Meatball, who stole the show by dressing up in a black tuxedo jacket.
In 2006, Adam and Jackie welcomed their first daughter, Sadie. Two years later, in 2008, Sadie became a big sister when Sunny was born.
Both daughters have made appearances in a few of their dad’s movies, including *Hubie Halloween*, *Hotel Transylvania*, and *Murder Mystery*. In 2023, they even starred in the Netflix comedy *You Are So Not Invited to My Bat Mitzvah*.
Jackie Sandler has also appeared in several of Adam’s films, including *Grown Ups* (2010), *I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry* (2007), and *Just Go with It* (2011), which starred Jennifer Aniston.
She even had a small role in the 2020 film *Murder Mystery*, which also featured Aniston.
Adam and Aniston have worked together in several movies and have shared a supportive friendship that has lasted more than 20 years.
Adam explained that Jackie and Aniston are close too, and there’s no jealousy between them. In fact, Jackie encourages Adam to be more expressive with his on-screen kisses!
Adam Sandler humorously admitted that his film kisses never feel as good as they could. “It’s not just [Aniston],” he said. “I actually feel bad for whoever I have to kiss. I’m like, ‘They don’t want to be doing this.’ But I do it.”
Referring to his intimate scenes with Jennifer Aniston in *Murder Mystery* (2019 and 2023), he added, “Jennifer is one of my closest friends and Jackie’s closest friends. So, Jackie’s like, ‘Would you give Jennifer some sort of good time with that kiss, please?’”
Recently, fans did a double take when Sandler walked the red carpet with his stunning wife for the New York premiere of his stand-up special *Adam Sandler: Love You*. Adam wore a yellow polo shirt and red pants, while Jackie wowed in an elegant black mini-dress.
But it wasn’t Adam’s trademark casual style or his usual offbeat jokes that grabbed fans’ attention.
Instead, it was Jackie’s striking resemblance to Jennifer Aniston that sparked a wave of online conversations. Fans couldn’t help but comment on how similar the two looked, causing quite a buzz on social media.
“I thought it was Jennifer Aniston!” one fan wrote, while another added, “That’s what I thought! Had to look twice.”
A third chimed in, “She looks like Jennifer Aniston, beautiful.” Echoing the same sentiment, another commented, “Jackie looks eerily similar to Jennifer Aniston. Yes??”
