Drew Barrymore

[Deleted]

50 first dates is my absolute favorite movie to watch when I'm depressed and sad. I don't care what anybody says...I love that movie.

She's my female sexy-ugly. I definitely don't think that she's the most attractive girl on Earth, and I hate to say it, but if it weren't for her last name, I don't think Hollywood would have given her a chance. However, having said that, I love the way she looks and I think she's quite fetching most of the time. I just love her smile and the way she seems like she's here to enjoy every moment of living, especially after losing so many years to drug usage.

Yep. Girlcrush.

I liked her in the article Carrie Fisher did about her in an issue of Glamour earlier this year.

She's my favorite Letterman guest. Outside of that venue, I don't really care about her.

I though things between her and Letterman were cooling off, but in her last appearance there was more cheistry than ever.

This may sound flighty, but people go through phases where you swear up and down to be something, then you turn around and become something else.

Yes, that phase is called adolescence. And Drew was about 10 years beyond that when the whole overnight vegan flip happened. I agree with what was said elsewhere--she's really immature in a lot of ways.

I'm not much of a fan of her acting, but I love how she's been dating oodles of guys since she and Fabrizio split. So many female celebs are terrified of being alone and try to force a commitment from a guy after a couple of dates by going public (e.g. Jessica Simpson, Jennifer Aniston), but Drew has been seen out with Spike Jonze, Zach Braff and Justin Long and seems to be thoroughly enjoying herself, with no air of desperation about the hookups.

Good for her.

Whatever else one might say, I get the impression she's easy to hang out with and just kind of enjoys goofing around, which I can well imagine would endear her to a lot of cool guys(not to mention that she really is cute/sexy in a "normal", everyday way).

I always think of the Tara vs. Sarah article title with her- Real or Fembot?
Article.

Drew Barrymore acts like a real-life Phoebe Buffay — to a point. The reason Phoebe worked (as a fictional character, mind you) is that amid her embracing of Wiccan ceremonies and her devotion to aromatherapy, she also had a dark side, and she wasn’t shy about expressing it. Barrymore acts like she has no dark side, which is both strange and deeply irritating.

Oh, I dunno, as far as the "denying her dark side" part. One of the reasons I was finally won over by her was reading an interview where she used the word "fuck" constantly. I hate that word, but in this case I was kind of impressed because I'd been skeptical of the whole flower child thing, but then saw that she doesn't bother to clean up her language to further an image she's trying to promote. I recall thinking "She really just is what she is."

I like Drew. Sure, she's a little flaky, but she seems like a genuinely good-hearted person who doesn't take herself too seriously.

And I think she came off really well in My Date With Drew.

Plus, you know, she was Gertie. Much love for that.

I like her, but that Letterman interview was annoying. What's up with the constant hair flipping and forced giggling?
