Calling Drew his "work wife", one said, "His work wife is Drew Barrymore. Do not disrespect my queen." Some were glad to see her trending and thankful that it was for that reason. Another posted, "I’m so glad that Drew Barrymore isn’t trending for the myriad of reasons I could have imagined she was trending." One tweet read: "Adam Sandler did not write this song about Drew Barrymore in The Wedding Singer for ya'll to disrespect them as a subpar duo." "The Wedding Singer is all I need to say," one said along with a meme.

Meanwhile, Aniston and Sandler have paired up for two movies. In 2011, the longtime friends starred in 'Just Go With It' and reunited for Netflix's 'Murder Mystery' in 2018. In fact, the actors have often confessed that their bonding is almost like that of a brother-sister and they did feel a little awkward during kissing and other intimate scenes. 

Fans have been incessantly tweeting. "Okay....I love Jennifer Aniston! Love love love BUT Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore are incomparable!" one said. And if that wasn't enough, one fan had an entire list of the best duos ready with Sandler and Barrymore at the top. "Adam Sandler/Drew Barrymore, Chris Farley/David Spade, Will Ferrell/John C.
