profession

In the 1998 hit comedy \”The Wedding Singer,\” the eponymous character was a nice Jewish boy named Robbie. At the Sept. 2 Century City Park Hyatt reception of 30-something newlyweds Daphna Ghozland and David Hollander, the wedding singer is a nice Jewish boy named Robbie. True, the latter — singer/pianist/bandleader Robbie Helperin — will occasionally perform the odd \’80s pop song with his Simcha Orchestra as Adam Sandler did in the movie, but that\’s where the parallels end, or at least, that\’s where Helperin would like them to end.\n\n\”It was kind of painful to watch,\” Helperin said of the movie that immortalized his profession as a \”Loserville\” populated by \”creepy musicians,\” in his words.
