Adam Sandler has revealed that he once signed a bag of his hair for a fan who then sold it as “pubic hair” on the internet.

The actor shared the anecdote during an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live on Thursday (30 September).

“ I had a person one time – I was leaving a haircut and a kid came out with a bag of my hair cut, and asked me to sign that,” he said.

“I did that, and then on the internet that night, he was selling it and saying, ‘Adam Sandler’s pubic hair,’” he laughed. “It’s a true story.”

When host Jimmy Kimmel asked how much the bag of fake “pubic hair” was being sold for, the Uncut Gems star said that he “bought them back for $65 (£50)”.

The 54-year-old is currently in Philadelphia shooting a new basketball-themed Netflix movie titled Hustle.
