Drew Barrymore praises Adam Sandler's parenting while talking with Mindy Kaling
Drew Barrymore is sharing her signs of a good parent.
While talking with fellow actress Mindy Kaling on a recent episode of 'The Drew Barrymore Show,' Drew Barrymore explained what she thinks makes a good parent.
She then shared that Adam Sandler and his wife Jackie Sandler have those qualities.
'I feel like it's a really good sign of a good soul and good parenting when older kids are not dismissive of younger kids,' Barrymore explained in a clip shared by Entertainment Tonight as she and Kaling, who is a single mom of three, talked about parenting and raising kind children.
As Kaling agreed with Barrymore's statement, the talk show host said, 'it's funny like not to drop names, but Adam Sandler's daughters, Sunny and Sadie, are so good to my daughters. And they're 16 and 18, and Olive and Frankie are 10 and 12, and they like 'hang out!''
'I always tell Jackie, Adam's wife, what a good mom that she is, and what good parents they are, because their daughters like, always take younger ones under the wing. So I can only hope that Olive and Frankie demonstrate that.'
Fans called that portion of their conversation 'wholesome.'
'Wholesome shout-out! Love seeing longtime friends lift each other up like this,' one person commented on Entertainment Tonight's Instagram post.
'When a celebrity is self made and not problematic, best believe they're gonna raise their kids right,' added another fan.
'This is so true! Should always treat little ones with kindness and show you care for them. Take them under your wing. You are never 'too cool' to be kind,' another commenter added.
Barrymore and Sandler have been friends since meeting in 1998 on the set of their first movie together, 'The Wedding Singer.'
The friendly duo have gone on to film other movies together, including '50 First Dates' and 'Blended.'
In April while answering audience questions during a taping of her talkshow, Barrymore said she and Sandler have plans of filming another movie together sometime soon, according to Today.
'I think so, as far as — I know so. That's a yes, and it's a matter of when, but I don't think it'll be too long, because we've always done everything every 10 years, and we're running out of time. We're past 10 years at this point.'

Mexican band Grupo Firme cancels US show, saying their visas were suspended by Trump administration
MEXICO CITY (AP) — The popular Mexican regional music band Grupo Firme announced on Friday that it was canceling a performance in a music festival in California over the weekend after the United States government suspended the musicians' visas. It comes after the U.S. State Department has revoked visas of a number of Mexican musicians for playing a genre of music that it says glorifies cartel violence. The group, which has soared to international fame playing Mexican regional music, said in a statement posted on its Instagram account that the visas of them and their team are currently under 'administrative review by the U.S. Embassy" and that it would make it 'impossible' for them to perform in the La Onda Fest to be held in the city of Napa Valley, California on June 1. But the post didn't detail what it would mean in the long term for the musical group. The U.S. Embassy in Mexico said that visa cases are confidential according to U.S. law and couldn't provide more information on the case. The suspension is just the latest in a series of moves the administration of U.S. President Donald Trump has taken targeting Mexican artists in the genre, who in some cases have glorified the leaders of cartels as sort of Robin Hood figures. While the genre of 'narco-corridos' has stirred controversy, much of the music also speaks to the harsh realities facing Mexican youth caught in cartel violence. Two months ago, the Mexican musical group Los Alegres del Barranco was sanctioned after it projected images of the leader of the feared Jalisco New Generation Cartel at a concert in the western state of Jalisco. 'I'm a firm believer in freedom of expression, but that doesn't mean that expression should be free of consequences,' U.S. Deputy Secretary of State Christopher Landau said at the time. 'The last thing we need is a welcome mat for people who extol criminals and terrorists.'

"All I've ever wanted was the opportunity to work hard enough to one day purchase my masters outright with no strings attached, no partnership, with full autonomy," she wrote in her letter to fans. "I will be forever grateful to everyone at Shamrock Capital for being the first people to ever offer this to me. The way they've handled every interaction we've had has been honest, fair, and respectful. This was a business deal to them, but I really felt like they saw it for what it was to me: My memories and my sweat and my handwriting and my decades of dreams."
