Adam Sandler's Emotional Tribute to Late SNL Stars at 50th Anniversary Special
During the Saturday Night Live 50th Anniversary Special, Adam Sandler delivered an emotional musical tribute that included heartfelt mentions of late cast members Chris Farley and Norm Macdonald. Sandler, who was a cast member from 1990 to 1995, performed an acoustic song titled “50 Years,” reflecting on the show’s legacy and its impact on pop culture. The song humorously touched on the highs and lows of SNL, while also paying tribute to the crew and cast members who have graced the show over the decades.

Farley died in 1997 at age 33, while Macdonald, known for his sharp wit and iconic “Weekend Update” segments, passed away in 2021.
The tribute was part of a larger celebration of SNL’s 50th anniversary, which featured appearances from numerous former cast members and celebrities.
