Not surprised at all. While I think Drew yearns for a white picket fence family, she just doesn't have the emotional tools to make it work thanks to her fucked up childhood. True. I think sometimes people want that "white picket fence" stuff because they're told via the media and society, that's what they're supposed to have, it's what's "normal." Some people get married and have kids and realize that relationships and kids take work, and they realize it's not for them, just like some people go into a career and realize it's not for them. I totally DISagree. We can still learn healthy emotional tools as adults (thank god). |

Some people get married and have kids and realize that relationships and kids take work, and they realize it's not for them, just like some people go into a career and realize it's not for them. Eonline quotes a source saying that they were friends and Drew thought he would be good for her after all the wild guys she dated, but she kind of knew that it wouldn't be forever. The quote kind of glossed over whether the kids were brought into the mix before or after she realized this...I think after. One of the reasons I find Drew interesting when it comes to men is that while she seems to always fall madly in love with her latest guy, I think she's actually a very self-sufficient person who has large areas of her life where her man is not needed or really wanted. I think this marriage may have been the first time she attempted to build a life around someone else and not just allow him to be a guest in her life temporarily. I don't think it's a character flaw, I think she may be somebody who is just better off living her life as she wants to live it and that's probably not as part of a team. Maybe some of that is left over from having to fend for herself at age 14, but she built a pretty awesome life for herself so if I were her, I probably wouldn't see the point of spending all my time compromising what I want to do for the sake of some guy who may or may not be a jerk. |

I would also add another banality of life: even sincerely wanting something doesn't make it a good fit, or a long-term good fit. |

Bringing this over from the Divorce Pool thread: Oh man. I hope this young lady [Frances Bean Cobain] has people looking out for her. I thought one of those people would have been Drew, because I vaguely remembered hearing that she was supposed to the the godmother to Frances Bean. However, I found this quote in a recent interview: Why does this not surprise me about Courtney?  ETA: Re roles for women, doesn't she have her own production company? I seem to remember Never Been Kissed being her first production (a very nice feel good movie). I can see her taking a little time off to be with the kids, which makes a lot of sense and wisdom of you can financially afford to. Hey, famvir, I found the interview that I had in mind. It's from More magazine. Drew was SO good in Miss You Already. If she were to do one movie a year at that level, then good on her. |

I was trying to remember how she and Courtney ended up in each other's orbits...wasn't Drew dating Eric Erlandson for awhile? Man. I also just remembered that she dated Jamie Walters, and they did a photoshoot in YM together or some such? THE 90S |

I was in a rental car this weekend on the way to a conference, and the only radio station we could pick up was 90s--it had "How Do You Talk To An Angel," "Every Rose Has Its Thorn," Ace of Base, and more. It was the best and worst at the same time.
Topic: Nothing. May Drew have a happy family and lots of career success.

It was the best and worst at the same time. Sounds like the Shame playlist I created on my Ipod, sans Ace of Base. I do have some standards. Even if those standards somehow rank Bret Michaels and Jamie Walters above Ace of Base. |

Every Rose came out in 1988.
Jussayin.
Carry on, our little Drew.

Even if those standards somehow rank Bret Michaels and Jamie Walters above Ace of Base. I must be older than you KE, because I have no shame over my iPod. The Partridge Family, Boney M, Brooks Benton, Dolly Parton, and Soft Cell coexist with Van Morrison, The Stylistics, U2 and Alabama Shakes. Heavy on the Adam Ant and Depeche Mode, don't mind the Ultravox and newish country music. And Las Ketchup is a great afternoon pick me up, so I don't care. My partner, who is a 6'4" basketball playing high school soccer coach loves Broadway musicals. Rent in particular, and he always gets embarrassed when I walk in while he's blasting Glee or something. I always tell him "You do you, man. Whatever." |
