LOS ANGELES (AP) — At age 82, it sounds like Mrs. Garrett is still teaching youngsters about the facts of life.

Charlotte Rae, who played boarding-school supervisor Edna Garrett on the early-'80s sitcom "The Facts of Life," says she has a cameo appearance in Adam Sandler's new comedy, "You Don't Mess with the Zohan."

Spoiler alert: Rae's role brings the term "cougar" to a new level.

"We make love together," the veteran character actress told AP Television on Tuesday night at a "TV Moms" event held at the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences.

In the movie, which opens June 6, Sandler plays an Israeli commando who goes undercover as a hair stylist with a penchant for promiscuity.

"On a table from one to 10, I rate him, 'Not bad,'" Rae said, with a laugh.
