Can’t believe I didn’t see this interview until now. Anyways, without further ado – here’s an interview Drew did with Daily Mail in which she talks about her past and how comfortable she is in the present.
Drew Barrymore has been in the public eye for so long now, it seems scarcely possible that she is still only 35. She has such a body of work behind her, it’s a wonder that she looks as fresh-faced as she does. Teetering on five-inch heels, with her blond locks pulled into a loose chignon, she has a childlike quality despite the womanly garb – and it is that beguiling mix that perhaps explains her rare appeal to both men and women.
‘I guess I do have a childlike sense of fun,’ she says, ‘and although I still have my dark days, I’m generally an optimistic person. The way things have gone in my life, sure, I could have been a bitter person. But I just find bitter people really un-fun, you know? And who wants to be that person?’
Not Drew, it seems, who, despite her family’s dysfunction and the drink and drug problems of her youth, is about as fun an individual as one is likely to meet in Hollywood. Since she burst into the public’s consciousness at the age of seven as the adorable Gertie in ET (director Steven Spielberg was her godfather), she has progressed from precocious child star to wild child to award-winning actress and one of Hollywood’s most successful female producers.
