ARTIST HERO:
ADAM SANDLER
by Jorge from Tampico
A hero is not just a person who saves lives, a hero can also be a person who simply likes to help others and respects them. A hero tries to do and give his very best. Consequently, heroes have to be respected because since they have helped us, we need to care about them and their causes as well. A hero can be found anywhere in the world. People can be heroes simply in the way they live their lives and we need to be proud of them. If a hero is famous, that's fine, but if not, it really doesn't matter. Heroes are simply people that we admire, or people that we feel something towards as a result of the things they do. Everyone has a hero. Maybe even a a made-up one--- but still, they are our heroes --- so don’t laugh if you someone tells you about their heroes. Just respect them for having one.
Adam Sandler is a very funny man who has been making comedy since his teens.
