I'm in the new Adam Sandler movie entitled "Sandy Wexler". I play a Prison Guard and a trainer. I've also worked with John Witherspoon (Ice Cube's dad from Friday) and Slink Johnson (voice of Lamar from Grand Theft Auto 5 and the star of Black Jesus).

I landed a paid cameo in the Adult Swim show entitled "Black Jesus". And while on-set, I got to meet Slink Johnson aka Black Jesus aka the voice of Lamar from Grand Theft Auto 5! That's right, I got to work with Lamar Davis from GTA! Here he is giving me a shout-out on-set...

And here's him telling Snoop Dogg how he got the role of Lamar in GTA V...

We even took some pictures together, then we started filming. It was yet another surreal experience. I also got to work with the legendary John Witherspoon, best known as "Pops" from The Wayans Bros, the voice of Grandad from The Boondocks, and he's probably most well known for playing Ice Cube's dad from all 3 Friday movies! And he was nice enough to take pictures with me on-set! We also went over the script together as seen here...

Right as we were both posing for the camera, the phone died and my other one was in the car! You can't make this stuff up. So a once in a lifetime opportunity missed, right? Nope! Luckily my girl had brought her Nintendo 3DS on-set so we were able to use the 3DS camera! We're probably the only ones in the world with 3D pictures of John Witherspoon lol. That's why the pics are of lower quality. But the fact that I got to work with him was priceless enough! Here are video clips of him in some of his most iconic roles...

Oh and I just recently uploaded a video where I call various sex shops asking for exclusive Black Friday deals. Check it out. Hope it gets you in the Holiday mood...

Anyway, here is one of the pics I took with John Witherspoon. I got a lot of Hollywood movie projects in the works and I can't wait to share them with you! I will also be featured in "The Disaster Artist" with James Franco and I will play the Nacho guy in Johnny Depp's upcoming "LAbrinth" movie.668379_151167695252_HNI_0042.jpg

Before I talk about my 2nd featured role in the new Adam Sandler movie, check out my Halloween animation I recently uploaded. I want to thank @tomfulp for putting it in the 2016 Halloween Collections page! I'm part of Newgrounds history... again ;)

Also here is my video where I met Adam Sandler for the first time...

Now about my 2nd role. Last month I told you guys that I landed a paid role in the new Adam Sandler movie where I would play Terry Crews' trainer, and that I could potentially land a 2nd role in the movie as a Prison Guard. Well, it happened, and now I have a featured role as a Prison Guard as well!

This was a Union role so I was making $20 to $30 an hour, got all the benefits a union member would receive, and got my first Screen Actors Guild Voucher (these are extremely difficult to obtain, so I am very thankful that I have one). If I get 3 vouchers in total, I am eligible to join the Screen Actors Guild, where I would be entitled to more pay and residuals. Here is a link to the official site so you can see all the benefits I would get...

Out of 5 Prison Guards, I was the only one to get his own scene. Right when Adam Sandler walks in the Prison to sit down, you can see me escorting a prisoner to his wife and newborn child. As they hug for a few seconds, I play the asshole Guard and separate them, scold him, then tell him to sit his ass down. I actually came up with that scene and it got the approval from both the director and Adam Sandler himself!

Originally they just wanted me to escort the prisoner and then go back to my original position. But I remembered when I did my scenes with Terry Crews that they gave us the freedom to improvise, so that's how the scene came to life. Then after I tell the inmate to sit down, I give him a death stare and start pacing around the Prison with my hand on my weapon the whole time. I am prominently featured throughout the whole 5 minute scene. It's one of the opening scenes and takes place in Alaska. Here is a picture of me in my Prison Guard uniform. And yes, they made my badge using a picture of me they took on set...

Now what's cool is that Terry Crews has been extremely supportive of me. Here is one of the first posts he liked. He's liked several of my posts ever since. Keep in mind that I didn't even tag him, I just gave him a quick shout-out for being an inspiration and for allowing me to be his trainer...

http://www.newgrounds.com/dump/item/bda8cf5e5714246be1941d748f0cd91a

And here's the video of him giving us props in person...

I want to thank all of you who have been supportive of me, it really means a lot. Shout out to Tom Fulp for the support and encouragement as well! He genuinely is excited to see this movie as, in his words, it will be a pretty surreal experience to see me in a movie with Terry Crews and Adam Sandler. Check out my official IMDB Page to see what upcoming Movies/TV Shows I will be featured in. I have quite a few projects in the works, so expect it to be updated often...

Also check out the official IMDB Page of "Sandy Wexler". I've officially been added to the cast...

A trailer will be released soon, so I will let you guys know as soon as it's uploaded! In the meantime, check out the video of Adam Sandler thanking us for being in his movie...

As most of my fans/followers know, I've been making Hollywood movies lately. A few months ago I filmed some scenes in Steve Carell's upcoming movie entitled "Battle of The Sexes" and also filmed a scene for an episode of "Love & Hip-Hop: Hollywood".

Then I made an announcement about 3 weeks ago that something big may or may not happen. I was trying to be in Adam Sandler's next movie! He has always been one of my favorite actors/comedians of all time dating all the way back to Billy Madison, Happy Gilmore, and The Waterboy.

Well after about 6 or so emails, I finally got through to the producers of Adam Sandler's newest movie and got to film scenes for his latest movie! And you want to know what the coolest part is?

They paid me to be in the movie! That's right, I finally got to live out one of my dreams of being in an Adam Sandler movie AND I got paid for it (really good money actually)! They even wanted me to return and film more scenes the very next day (which I did)! Here is a video of me meeting Adam Sandler for the first time...

http://youtube.com/watch?v=nGy_VEutYRo

When I arrived on set, I was informed that I was promoted to be the trainer of Terry Crews aka " Bedtime" Bobby Barnes! The next day, I reprised my role as his trainer (there were 3 in total) and we got some cool scenes with Adam Sandler and Terry Crews. I had worked 16 hours on set on Tuesday and 17 hours on Wednesday for a total of 33 hours! And yes they paid us overtime/double time and fed us breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The time went by really fast though as we were all having fun, but also concentrating on perfecting our scenes.

Then I found out that the guy who picked my costume for the Adam Sandler movie got confirmation that my scenes from both days will be featured and that I am entitled to more pay because of it (hence the reason we filmed the same scenes for about 4 hours).

I had also just got done filming an intense scene where Terry Crews gets brutally beat down and thrown out of the ring by former WWE star Rikishi, and I'm leaning over the railing begging him to get up and fight! I'm pretty much the only one in a trainer's outfit leaning over the barricade so it shouldn't be that hard to spot me ;). Speaking of Terry Crews, here is a video of him giving us props after 33 hours of filming...

Also I was literally less than 10 feet from Adam Sandler on set. This still feels like a dream. Never thought I'd be working this closely with him. Also, someone said I resembled him a lot. Maybe that's why I landed such a prominent role. Also today my casting director said she was trying to get me a SAG (Screen Actors Guild) voucher for this Wednesday! If I get 3 in total, I will be eligible to join the SAG and be entitled to more pay! I will keep you guys updated. In the meantime, check out this video of Adam Sandler thanking is for being in his latest movie...

http://youtube.com/watch?v=m5d-jHlWqVI

There is a 90 percent chance I will return to film more scenes with Adam Sandler this Wednesday. I'll let you guys know for sure...

My last post was about how my 2nd single was put on the iTunes music store. You can check that out here...

http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/dont-really-wan na-know-single/id561711251

Well this next post is about Miyamoto and the upcoming Wii U Console. When I went to E3, I showed Tom Fulp a video I recorded of the Legendary Shigeru Miyamoto. Not only did he love it but he also said it was one of his favorite videos EVER! Check it out...

Also I decided to take a little break from music and go to a private event held by Nintendo. It took place on September 23rd and was an "invite only" event. I recorded some videos for you guys. This first video is of me taking a tour of the Wii U Experience...

This next video is of me playing 2 minigames from the upcoming "Game and Wario: Working Title"...

Here's a video of me up close and personal with the Wii U gamepad...

This next video was me playing in a New Super Mario Bros. U contest to see who could beat this level in the fastest time possible. I was actually in the lead and I would have been a finalist but my brother (who was using the Wii U Gamepad) didn't poke the Pihranna Plants that were popping out of the pipes I was running across! So that is how I died. You can even hear someone saying "tap tap tap tap tap!" lol

My other brother entered the contest as well. Since I had already entered, he had to get a new partner. Unfortunately for him, they teamed him up with a n00b (who is using the Wii Mote to control Mario) so they never stood a chance to get into the finals. I was like a boxing coach, bob and weave, bob and weave!

All in all this was an awesome event! The atmosphere reminded me of E3. Speaking of E3, here's another video of me meeting the Legendary Shigeru Miyamoto...

Two weeks ago I posted about how my first single entitled "On My Mind" was put on the iTunes music store under LL Cool J's record label. That took a few months to happen. However, due to the popularity of the single, my 2nd single entitled "Don't Really Wanna Know" was put up in less than a week! You can now buy that song from the iTunes store by clicking the link below...

http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/dont-really-wan na-know-single/id561711251

The support for my first single has been overwhelming! I want to thank the fans for their continued support of my music career! Without you guys, there would be no Vinstigator! And I also want to give a special thanks to the very talented Zajed for producing the beat for my 2nd single. I look forward to working with him again in the near future! Anyway, hope you guys enjoy the song! Don't forget to leave me feedback! I got so many projects in the works and I can't wait to show you guys! Even the legendary MindChamber bought a copy! In fact, he's been one of the biggest supporters of my music. And for that, I thank him...

LL Cool J has put my 2nd single up on iTunes!
