While the Academy Awards usually see Hollywood’s stars dressed in their best formal attire, Adam Sandler was rocking a pair of Steph Curry’s shoes while dressed in his (in)famously casual attire. Sandler was a part of a 100-second bit with Oscars host Conan O’Brien during Sunday’s award show while dressed in his standard look: gym shorts and a zip-up hoodie and basketball sneakers.

Following the surprising scene at the Oscars, Steph Curry dropped a two-word comment on Sandler’s moment. “Great choice,” he said, tagging the “Spaceman” star. Interestingly, the NBA star was referring to Sandler’s shoe choice of the day, as he opted to attend the Oscars in Under Armour’s "Championship Mindset" Curry 11.

Adam Sandler went full Billy Madison during a bit at the 2025 Academy Awards on Sunday night. During his opening monologue, Oscars host Conan O’Brien took it upon himself to act as fashion police and told the celebrity-studded crowd that it was of utmost importance “that everyone is properly dressed” for the event.
