Kanye West has thanked Adam Sandler for “the love” after the comedian appeared to make a pointed reference to the controversial rapper during Saturday Night Live’s 50th anniversary special.
Amid the “CARNIVAL” artist’s recent controversies, a fake AI video showing Jewish celebrities — including Sandler, Scarlett Johannson and David Schwimmer — giving West the finger went viral.
His apparent nod to West was not lost on the rapper, who later tweeted: “Adam Sandler thank you for the love.”.
Throughout the comedic tune, he listed off several inside jokes and references to his time on the show, including “Tuesday late-night pizza” and “writers then getting wasted at the after party.”.
“50 years of finding out your favorite musician’s antisemitic,” Sandler sang in another line.
