The Absurdly Hot Love Interests of Adam Sandler

Critics can argue all they want that Adam Sandler has questionable taste (see also: reviews for "Jack and Jill") but we beg to differ.

The actor/actress may just have the best taste in all of Hollywood... in leading ladies, that is.

Don't get us wrong -- we know humor goes a long way -- but Sandler's not exactly the first guy we think of when listing off Hollywood's male hotties, yet, in his movies, he winds up with the ladies near the top of the list. At first glance, does Sandler seem like the kind of guy who could land the likes of Salma Hayek, Jessica Biel or Mrs. Tom Cruise herself, his "Jack and Jill" wife Katie Holmes?

We've gotta hand it to the guy. Behold our gallery dedicated to the absurdly hot love interests of Adam Sandler.
