Meanwhile, Adam Sandler, Kevin James, David Spade, Salma Hayek, Taylor Lautner, Maya Rudolph and Chris Rock have made appearances in Las Vegas, Cancun, Mexico and, last month, the entire group, on The Ellen DeGeneres Show.

Sandler said Lautner brought his own intimidation, a following of high-pitched screaming fans at each of his stops.
Some of those high-pitched screams came from Swampscott's Fan-Fam. That's the nickname a group of girls who hung out at sets in town gave themselves.
Fan-Fam ringleader who was an extra in the movie, was invited to a Boston screening of a test version of the movie, by Alexander Ludwig. Ludwig, who starred in the Hunger Games, has a role in Grown Ups 2.
Julie and other Fan-Fam members want to make it to the movie's July 12 premiere.
Wherever it is, she will be there, she says.
