Drew Barrymore is a judge on that CBS competition show, Worlds Best, with RuPaul, Faith Hill and James Corden. There are so many reality competition shows and they’re being usurped by those celebrity performance shows like Masked Singer and Lip Sync Battle. The last time we checked in on Drew she was claiming that she never gets stage fright because she was a child actress. It was typical Drew and she also went on about talking to the checkout people at stores something. She’s mentioned this topic before, about being open and friendly and having small moments of connection. Drew hasn’t had a special someone since her divorce. She posted something to Instagram recently to celebrate Valentine’s Day, it was a series of sticky notes on the mirror of her trailer at work. (I think the woman who left it was working with her on a Croc’s photoshoot.)
That’s sweet about love being from friends and family too, and how it doesn’t have to be romantic. I think this is the post she’s referring to by Elaine Welteroth, the former editor of Teen Vogue. I’m not posting it here. I don’t know if it’s Instagram’s format that makes everyone’s captions seem like BS or the fact that Welteroth posted a photo where she’s posing with her partner on the stairs to a private plane, but I eyerolled reading that. There were some good lines about self actualization though and about love expanding who you are.
As for Drew, the last time we checked in on her lovelife she was reconnecting with an ex, Justin Long, which a lot of us do. No shame in that. (I do shame her for her sh-tty takes on feminism and MeToo.) I think she left her husband, and by all accounts it was her decision, because she didn’t want to feel tied down. Some people are happier being single and find relationships to be work. Plus dating is hard around our age, even for famous women.
Remember when Drew was married to Tom Green for just a few months in 2001? He was her second husband! She’s been married three times so maybe it’s better for her if she takes a beat and tries to find herself. Also I really believe she should get sober. That’s my take on some things she’s said recently, and I could be wrong. Also the fact that she looks drunk in photos, but maybe that’s just how she always looks.
Ooh and it looks like Drew got a bad dye job and bangs. I would be interested to see what that looks like without a camera in front of her face.
This post sums up Drew’s makeup line:

You could be up to something. I could not put my finger on it but she does look like she is drunk most of the time I see a pic of her. But maybe that is just her face. Some people have a resting bitch face, some may have a resting drunk face.
I’ve been sober 25yrs +, and some of us NEED to stay clean. I have friends who are functioning & beautiful even if they “partake” on occasion. Drew & ppl like me- we get goofy, bloated, overbearing & destructive just by LOOKING at a beer.
I think she may have a resting drunk face. I’ve been told I look like Drew and I definitely have a resting drunk face even when I haven’t been drinking. I think its the droopy eyes and crooked smile.
I’ve never used her make up, but that eyeshadow looks super chalky and like they had to use A Lot to get that pigment.
Her ex-husband just has a spread in Architecturl Digest, if anyone is interested. It made him sound like he has their kids pretty consistently.
Which is probably for the best. She seems like a huge mess. Between the constant verbal diarrhea and the fact that she genuinely looks drunk or on something most of the time. Part of me feels bad but I think sympathy regarding her childhood can only last so long. At some point she is an adult making her own decisions and I don’t think we should always use kid gloves. And for someone who owns a makeup company her makeup almost always looks awful.
Elaine Weltworth is no longer editor of Teen Vogue, for at least a year, LOLZ. She left that and has a bigger, better platform for her brand – including now being a judge on Project Runway with K. Kloss.
Ok I’ll fix that
jeez
WAY HARSH TAI
My GAWD…I hope she escapes the Barrymore curse….
I was SO HAPPY yesterday when I saw that “Going the distance” was on OnDemand! It’s one of my FAVORITE rom-com movies…because her and Justin are just…WONDERFUL together…the chemistry…is WHOA…and for some odd reason…I just ADORE me some Justin Long…like…on EVERY LEVEL! And I have always loved Drew…
Though…she is EXHAUSTING!
So funny, LaLa, because I clicked on the linked older articles and you made the same comment about Going The Distance months ago. And now I for real must find and watch it! Also, you should get some sort of kick-back payment every time you successfully shill!
She needs to call me, she is my forever girl
I don’t blame her for getting her Justin on. I’ve heard very good things about him.
People seem to be celebrating friendlove a lot more lately. I got to be my bestie’s valentine since her husband couldn’t be in town for vday. I sent her love notes all week and we did margaritas on the weekend.
She should totally get back with Tom Green. I ❤ him.
Recently attended a Tom Green comedy night here in NYC. He is a bloated, washed up alcoholic so no, they should not get back together.
She is a very perplexing celebrity. She seems totally cool then totally insufferable from one moment to the next.
Drew makes me nervous for some reason,I can’t take her in very large doses.I think she’s drinking and I just feel uncomfortable,like I’m watching an admitted addict self destruct.I really hope I’m wrong,and that she’s okay.
I agree with her take on V-Day. For my first marriage, I was very cynical and way too wise for Valentines Day (“if you need a manufactured holiday to tell me you love you…” blah blah blah). Last year, I decided to embrace it and we made it all about love for the family. My kids made spaghetti and meatballs, we lit candles and exchanged gifts. This year, I was coming from the airport so no time to cook, but the kids, my honey and I met and a restaurant and exchanged gifts and cards. I’m glad my cold heart has warmed up – now I love the holiday. Why not celebrate love?
I’m confused. Wasn’t she still married four years ago? LOL.
