AceShowbiz - Thirteen years after the last update, Adam Sandler's iconic "Chanukah Song" returned earlier this month for its fourth part. The actor first debuted the latest version last week, but he finally posted a video of the performance on YouTube Wednesday, November 25 just in time for Thanksgiving.
Bringing along an acoustic guitar and accompanied by a keyboardist, Sandler lists a bunch of famous faces who people may or may not know are Jewish. Among those making it into the song include Adam Levine, Drake, Scarlett Johansson, Shia LaBeouf, Seth Rogen, Joseph Gordon-Levitt as well as fictional characters like Harry Potter, Princess Leia from "Star Wars" and Queen Elsa from "Frozen (2013)".
Also getting the mention is "Jared from Subway" who last week was sentenced to 15 years in prison on charges related to sex with minors and child pornography. "Jared from Subway: f**k, a Jew/ But guess who's Jewish and can fix him? Loveline's Dr. Drew," he sings.
The very first edition of "Chanukah Song" was premiered by Sandler back in 1994 with O.J. Simpson and Captain Kirk on the list. It got its first and second updates in 1999 and 2002 respectively. The latest version was debuted last week when the comedian was making a surprise appearance at Judd Apatow's standup special at New York City's Carnegie Hall.
