This was recorded on VHS in the 90's.
Drew Barrymore interviews on both Oprah and Arsenio Hall in 1990 discussing her book Little Girl Lost.
It's funny how she seems so serious and down when she was 15 and now that she's 40+ she seems more child like. I think she's way more happy as an adult.
She now gets to be the free child she never got to be. And a much much better mother to her beautiful daughters (: Who aren't burdened by evil, selfish, uncaring parents who use you as a paycheck. What Drew's parents did to her was child abuse. She is so strong!
yup - Michael Jackson was the same - behaving as an adult when a child and as a child when an adult
@@counterfeit_red no shes beenn sober since 2019
@@mrsweatshirt4047 I thought it was much longer than that? It isn’t really my business, but i thought she quit everything, but maybe occasional pot here and there since she was a kid? That’s just what I’ve always heard.
Yea I think it's sad she didn't get to just be ... Since childhood.
I love Drew's ice cold stare when her Mom is talking. Telling.
Jaid institutionalised her for a year around age 13, 14 was when she won emancipation due to the psych ward admittance, this interview was done when she was 15. That alone would make anyone dark. Poor Drew. What a horrid childhood.
@@Bella-kz3qe thanks for telling the story. I was wondering how she got her own place
I can’t wait for Drew to write her tell all. She recently said she feels she has to wait until her mother dies before she can talk about a lot.
Yeah, I noticed she was smiling and then turned her head to her mother and the smile immediately dropped. I think they’ve since reconciled but she didn’t like that woman at all back then, huh?
They hit her with such hard questions and she just takes it with such grace and honesty.
Oprah is as sadistic as ellen
Maybe, they want other kids to learn from her mistakes. I’m just glad that she’s okay, now.
@@blondstoner7272 I’m not the biggest fan of hers, but I’m hoping she had a heart and was being genuine. Crew is waaaaay younger than her.
its called an actor . a piece of shit
@@blondstoner7272 She's freaking 15 years old. How many of us could get through that interview with such grace.
I dislike the accusatory tone Oprah had with Drew. Having an accusatory tone with Drew’s mother is appropriate. But her shady tone toward Drew bothered me.
Yesss, I noticed that & it bothered me, too!
Yeah she should be talking that way to her awful mother
Typical Oprah.
I felt that, too. But she also complimented her ("How could you not look in the mirror and think you were beautiful?") and empathized with her ("I went through this").
She was jealous of her beauty. That's how women act toward younger prettier girls they envy.
Why is Oprah acting like it’s Drew’s fault? She was a child. Yeah she puts some of the blame on her mom, but it’s clearly the parent’s fault since she was getting ahold of alcohol at 9 years old.
Precisely what I thought -the mother actually took her to these “parties.”
Guess cause it can never be Oprahs fault. She typically acts just a little bit better than everyone else.
I think she wants the mother to see her disgust.
That just blows my mind. That an 8 year old would drink two glasses of champagne. That's so dangerous giving a child that age strong alcohol. What adult would do that? Where was her mom? And before she was even 15 she was doing hard drugs, cocaine. Astonishing. This is the problem with children brought into celebrity/acting at a young age, they don't get to grow up normally. It's a familiar story, Michael Jackson was same and ended up a drug addict.
I"m not sure that is the intention. Psychological discussion changes a lot every few years. What's acceptable now wasn't considered then.
Her mom failed her as a child big time. I would be so ashamed to even sit there.
Well that is why she would not talk to her mom for a long time.
no she was being a parent of a show business icon ,how can you check in on your child Ren when you are scrutinised so hard
I totally agree, but why would you "be ashamed to even sit there"?? It wasn't Drew's fault, so there's no reason for *her* to feel any shame/be ashamed. Her *mom* should be ashamed!
@@kellyhardyman9509 just because your child is a show business icon doesn't mean you shouldn't parent!
THANK YOU!
Her addiction should be called. " surviving Hollywood " I feel for her.
Steven Spielberg is the next Weinstein to be exposed. Poor drew and Orourke
Or “surviving deadbeat parents who let their underaged child do whatever ”
Surviving the Barrymore legacy.
An Open Secret would convince me that there must be much more to her story that isn't being stated here
@@amandasvida9324 he is a close friend to Drew. She said he is one of the people that really cares about her and he also saved her life.
How the F$#% do u let a 9 year old "go their own separate way" at adult parties?!?! Wtfh!!!???
I have a 9 year old now. I was just thinking that.
Hollywood
It was all meant to happen. Drew grew into a much stronger person because of all of that. I'm sure even she recognizes that now and wouldn't change a thing about her past. We always grow the strongest through the most challenging times in life. Those challenges are put into our paths for a reason.
That's why Oprah kept looking at Drew's mother in disgust.
I mean, what kind of "adult parties" are we talking about? I daresay, if you're at an all adult party full of untrustworthy people doing shady things and you need to worry about your child being unsupervised there, they shouldn't even be there in the first place!
If you're at, say, a wedding or a housewarming party or cookout or some other type of gathering that might very well have alcohol, that's an "adult party" but you aren't going to hover over your kids. Because almost no parent suspects they need to keep watch out for their child drinking at NINE.
Did this woman fall short as a parent? Absolutely, inarguably. But I don't think it's negligence for a child to run around having fun at a social gathering.
Drew had a angel around her. Walking the streets at night & parties aren't always very safe. I'm glad she is doing well now in her 40"s.
Her mother clearly didn’t protect her daughter.
Trust and naive is all
Exactly -the mother could have home schooled her. The is disgusting. How could you let your child have some “space” at these disgusting “parties”?
@@clockwinder2924 because they were probably high end home house party u know kids in pool give me a break my parents had couple parties we snuck alcohol her mom looks fine. You people are way too uptight kids drink remember high school lol.
@Julie Lovestrees, Sorry I didn’t mean to offend, but by her own admission she went way beyond a bit of alcohol. Also no, at nine (I wasn’t in high school at that age) my parents actually did keep an eye on my siblings and I if we were at an “adult” party (by that I mean alcohol freely flowing and swimming pools, that can lead to drowning.etc) I wasn’t referring to parties for 15 year olds. I apologise if it makes me uptight to wish to keep a decent amount of supervision on a child that is under ten. (Yes, I know she’s older than that here, it’s not the age I was referring to.) Still, I come more from a place of sadness rather than judgment and I do apologise if it came across as such.
Also, by homeschooling, I mean that the Barrymores are wealthy, so surely something could have been done about the relentless bullying that Drew referred to. Aren’t our children our most precious people that we must take care of?
@deekat3279 That’s good, my parents worked too. You don’t have to be wealthy to homeschool, nor do I think it’s necessary. It’s just she said being bullied lead to her drug use. The Barrymores are an acting legacy family, so if she was being bullied, maybe they could of afforded to change her school. Not accusing her mother of this, but who bought her the drugs and alcohol if she didn’t have her own money? Please don’t get me wrong, I’m the same age as Drew and I grew up a big Drew Barrymore fan and I still enjoy her movies. I just remember, even as a child, being shocked that she was allowed to be out behaving like that (because of her self admitted drug addiction,) I don’t judge addicts and I admire how she’s put her life back together, but her parents should have kept a better eye on a child who was only nine years old.
She was extraordinary, even as a recovered 15 year old child. Drew is so authentic.
I remember her in mad love and she seemed so much more grown up only like five years after this
She’s said many times in later years that she was still very much an addict here. This was her redemption tour but her recovery came years later. I’m not putting her down either, I think she’s an incredible human being, I just think that piece of information makes her even more extraordinary.
@@pops4718No the comment was used to explain Drew as a 15 year old= past tense. Hence “was.”
@@pops4718 piss off
@@pops4718 you should to find something better to do than being a false tense troll
She was very mature for her age and she spoke of true wisdom. Not even adults talk about rehabilitation honestly like that
When anyone has a spirit as bright as Drew's, people will try and do anything they can to extinguish it. She's clearly suffering so much here. Someone this sweet was made to feel like she was a misguided, "bad girl". Anyone in her situation would have spiraled. I hate that people didn't give her the love and comfort she needed and she had to try and numb herself to survive. Thank God, she survived.
Perfectly stated. Thank you ❤️
She did make mistakes though her condition was quite sensitive at that time so many ppl in Hollyweird have gotten wasted guess fame is hard to digest
Who leaves their famous 9 yr old alone at a Party or Bar. She is lucky that she only got Drunk. SMH
Who knows
ikr? irresponsible mother
i mean we don’t really know that’s the ONLY thing that happened. smh.
@@tetflaminiano1674 totally. what kind of a grown adult would make an 8 yr old girl drink 2 glasses of champagne? If doing that didn't have any ulterior motives, then thats just plainly immature. People at the parties could've gotten her drunk on purpose.
That we know of. If I were betting I would say a lot of horrible things happened. She still doesn't speak to her mother. Shes an awsome person and these experiences have made her who she is today. Strong as F-ck
Imagine giving a 9-year-old alcohol. Hollywood is still not held accountable for how child actors are treated.,
Wow lets talk about Arsenio's interview. He was sooo nice towards Drew. And so sympathetic wow. At the end he said for her to call him if she needed help. His entire interview was refreshing. I wonder if they are still cool.
Drew's face lit up at the mention of Steven Spilberg. She loved him very much. She felt that he was the first person who cared about her. I take he was like the father she never had.
He became her honorary godfather in her teens.
They are still extremely close and she still loves him
she said that when he found out that she posed for playboy, he had all of the images of her in the magazine digitally editied to clothe her! 😝 If that doesnt scream "dad energy"... lol
You gotta appreciate how raw, real and honest she is. That takes alot of courage to be out there in the public talking everyone through your rehab. You'd think that younger generations of struggling actors that came after her would look at her and realize that they can work it out too.
They're even worse now. They'll learn the hard way.
A lot of them have been through worse traumas.
It's never easy then or now
I think regardless of her example, I think people get too into their own world in the industry so if they become addicted i can imagine it can be extra hard to ground yourself.
Drew is afraid to say that she got an alcohol as a kid at home. It was probably laying everywhere...
Arsenio was so loving and genuine. Oprah, on the other hand, she seemed so judgmental and her energy was so negative.
How can you help but be judgmental & negative to a mother who admits that she lets her 9 year old go her way at adult Hollywood parties? I'd be judgmental & negative to the mother too.
Oprah definitely one to be so judgemental.
If Drew's mother was there it would be a different interview.
@@TrungNguyen-zj1rz she was judgejudgemental toward drew too. She's just got a mean style of interview. Always has. Arsenio doesn't judge because we never know until we're in that person's shoes and it's only God's job to judge. We're all sinners. We all harm others at one point or another. We all make mistakes and must grow. Its important to be merciful. Jesus said God's merciful. But we have to repent and keep trying. Drew is forgiving too. Maybe mom was suffering mental health issues. Doesn't make it OK. AT ALL and it needs intervention and consequences but there's a difference between recognizing wrong doing and thinking it's our job f poo r of us to punish and judge others. Example. My boyfriend beats me. I must recognize he's abusive and get out. Not stay around and make him understand how bad he is and try to make him fix it or shame him to others or himself. The first part is useful. The second not so much. Maybe pies charges if it doesn't put you in further danger (my opinion it does with psychopaths).... That's just my opinion though for all that!
@@youtubingbabs I agree with everything you've said, which I think are more your values than mere opinions. I was raised religiously. But I don't buy into all that horrible bullshit about original sin. I do believe in God, and I pray every day. But only because it works!
Arsenio- very empathetic and gave her the space to tell her story with grace and seems like she felt empowered by his evidently genuine compassion 👍🏼
Yes, so kind and gentle. 🥰
yes!!!
He was always a good interviewer. Respect him for that.
She looks like a daughter of Elvis!
Yes! I see it too
There is some resemblance.
I bet she looks like Margaret ann.
I thought so too.
@@hezelgee6012 Her Mom is a Piece of Crap. How can the Mother of a Small child not know what's going on with her small Child. Her Mother sucks
She was a beauty then she’s a beauty now, and just an all-around beautiful soul. What a lovely woman she is. I love Drew Barrymore.
Her part in Ever After was one in a million. Highly underappreciated and wise. Lovely soul
She’s so articulate and eloquent. Such a sweet energy and beautiful wounded soul who I am amazed survived the he’ll she went through. So happy she has succeeded in her life. She’s obviously very intelligent
Drew is extraordinary. Her hurts took her to a dark place, but her intelligence and talents took her out of it. She is an adorable person. She brightens my day with her wonderful Show. She is showing the way for people who have taken a dark way of life and are searching for the Light. Drew is remarkable. She is a very lovable person. May God bless her always. 😇✝️
She is such a wise teenager.
I supremely agree with you! She's such a knowledgeable author! ❤❤❤❤❤
What a hard interview for such a young person
She’s such a beautiful baby girl. ❤️ She needed guidance and protection at that young age. 🙁 Thankfully she was strong enough to turn it all around and become the woman she is today. Drew, you are loved and admired by many. 👍❤️😘🌹
I wish Sinead O'Connor could have gone the same path and defeat her demons and prove everyone wrong! ❤🩹 I still love her and hope she'll find happiness... Everyone's path's different. She's an extraordinary woman!
Oprah is very aggressive with this child.
I called it, mean spirited or no heart at all for Drew.
Oprah spoke volumes as to the kind of person she is 🗣. So sad....
Aisling SMITH
I don't think she's directing aggressiveness to Drew; I think it's more she's annoyed that Jaid wasn't there to see what Drew was up to. Either way, Oprah isn't being mean to either of them. Before anything is recorded, she talks to everyone involved about the questions she'll be asking, etc. Nothing wrong with the way Oprah did/does her shows. ❤️ I know a lot of people mention how mean or rude she is to her guests, but I've never seen it. I've been watching her since I was a baby in the '80s. 😊
Well that would not be my child drinking at 9
@@donnafranks-oldpathhome Oprah is just showing the emotions a person should be feeling hearing this....
Oprah wants the money so she has to be the bitch, to pull those emotions out of people like a leech
Last night I saw a clip from Johnny Carson with Drew when she was 7, and today I saw this. What a dramatic change in the life and times of such a beautiful and talented young lady.
i just was watching that same
My heartbreaks for Drew💔 Am so HAPPY
she has become such an admirable woman n mother!!!💞💓👍🏼😍
I alway,s wanted to buy her book Little Girl lost for many years now i see alot of myself un her all m'y life her show is amazing theres only one Drew Barrymore 💖✨
Admirable? Her mother was neglectful and parentified her. She abandoned her daughter to the debauchery and corruption of Hollywood, she’s lucky her daughter wasn’t molested..if she wasn’t.
@@michalvictoria8846
Read ONE MORE TIME!! I said DREW has become an admirable woman and mother!!!!
She’s absolutely gorgeous💕
If you can read Drew's book Little Girl Lost, it's really sad, but beautiful at the same time. I've read it several times and it helps me to go on. Thank you Drew ❤️📖
I'd love to read it but it would affect me emotionally.
Is the book still available? She did inspire me in this interview... I might actually learn something from the book for my own healing journey. 😊
I applaud Drew for not only owning her mistakes but working so hard to overcome her addictions and struggles to do so well in her life now.
I wanted Oprah to ask her mother more hard hitting questions
It's amazing the kind of compassion that she had for her deadbeat father, even at such a young age.
She was such an intelligent child! So articulate and confident! Can we also talk about how beautiful she is!
How mature she has always been. Amazing
5:15 that hair whip
The little Drew was very different to the teen Drew. and im glad Drew rn is the best, most inspiring person
Her mam was so busy on the phone. This girl needed a hug . Beautiful little girl ,blame the parents. Look at her . All this girl needed was LOVE
Drew was so different here. I used to watch her E True Hollywood story, so I knew she had a horrific childhood with her mother, but the contrast of herself as an adult, to a teenager is so stark. I’m glad she’s much happier and free now.
This is a feedback has really healed my heart darling, I am grateful, thank you so much for your support and prayers to my career 😇 where are you watching from?
Arsenio is a nice man, compassionate. Thank you Drew for sharing your life...and yes Oprah seemed vicious.
Hardly vicious, let's not exaggerate. Oprah was in her right mind to be furious that this abuse and neglect happened to this child right in front of her, with her witless mother sitting there taking no responsibility. Who wouldn't be angry to see that? If you want to see vicious watch Diane Sawyer interview a lone, teenaged Britney Spears in the early 2000s
How exactly does she seem vicious? Can’t you think for yourself
@@beyourself2444Their comment demonstrates them thinking for themselves. You sound just as vicious as the interviewer you unthinkingly defend.
I’m sure the majority of people thought that Drew’s fame was over but she ended up proving them all wrong! You go, Drew!!! 😊💰
Arsenio is such a compassionate, sweet interviewer. I can tell he made her feel so much more comfortable than she otherwise would have been. I’m so impressed.
Yes, I also watched his interview with Sinead O'Connor, and he literally adjusts his voice and speaks in a gentle and calm way to make hurt and abused girls feel safe. He's really kind and extraordinary and you can feel he's very genuine!
The Welcome hug was a little too long in my opinion.
I've always adored her inside and out. She is true and pure full of love.
She smiles the most when Oprah mentions et because he was a genuine friend to her 🥺
1:57. Drew’s expression while her mom was talking says it all. And then the way her face lit up when Oprah mentioned Steven Spielberg was so sweet ❤
She needed structure and security at her young age from her mother. Every child needs that.
What a beautiful young woman. I'm not talking about her appearance. I wish there were more people in the world with her kind of grace and graciousness.
She is beautiful anyways
❤❤thank you so much for your 😅whooping notification and I sincerely appreciate you streaming my contents here on the CZcams channels where are you watching from ??
I love how the mom acts she didn’t know that’s what was going on. You took her to the party you clearly cared more about your own social life than the safety of your child. She sent home with you you couldn’t tell she had alcohol? Come on!
Drew seems such a sweet person. She moved me to tears when she spoke of her "father" with understanding and no bitterness at all. So sad - poor little girl! All children deserve to have two parents who love, protect and care for them. Arsenio was genuinely caring and a great interviewer.
Oprah not so much and seemed to talk down to Drew and her mom as if they were beneath her. Very odd, given her own problems...
Yep she was rude. She didn’t even let drew finish talking.
I didn't like the way Oprah spoke to Drew... Shez a kid. Sooo soooooo rude
I mean she sounded so judgmentale. Opera I'm talking about
@@u8395
Oprah later admitted drug use .
Cocaine .
I WAS DEVOTED TO OPRAH UNTIL SHE STARTED WORSHIPING DR. DREW AND THAT ENDED IT FOR ME. SHE CAN BE VERY MEAN AND SELFRIGHTIOUS.
I never realized Drew's mother was Edward Scissorhands... 😎
That’s exactly what I thought !
When I watch Drew's daily talk show and see these interviews, she has always stayed down to earth. She's great!
Why social services didnt do anything to protect her? This woman who calls herself a "mother"just use her little baby for money?
I'm guessing you're under the age of 40? There really wasn't any such thing as Social Services like there is today. Even so, kids in Hollywood still aren't protected
Judy Garland, Charlotte Church, Tonya Harding all had mothers that didn't teach them and protect them properly.
She was emancipated at 14
$$$$$$$$$
she was emancipated
Btw I miss Arsenio Hall. Its amazing how Fallon, Colbert and Kimmell had a longer run when Arsenio Hall show was so much better
Wish I could tell her at this age what an icon she will become. Still my favourite actress.
The Arsenio interview feels more like a therapy session.
Jonathan Watson actually I was appalled when he wanted to talk about the drugs instead of her emotions and it’s bc that’s what would sell better
did anyone else notice his air quotes and comment about demographers and his children - wtf?
@@kimlathephotography5921 oh shut up his interview was on point. Stop looking for trouble
I love how beautifully she understands her dad's situation. She's way above her age here.
Heartbreaking, but so inspiring to see how she took control of her life and turned it ALL around. I just love this girl, always have been rooting for her, and so thrilled with her successes. Drew, you've come a long way, baby!
Wow she was so smart since childhood! It was her sharp mind that helped her get back on her feet before she was doomed! I always saw her as this sunny, bubbly person, always smiling that I had no clue she has been thru all this as a child! Mad respect!!
Arsenio was great at interviewing guests. Hope he's doing ok these days.
Clearly a beautiful adorable wonderful person.
Drew's look of "yea, right" when her mom says she didn't know about her drinking at parties when she was 9. TIME 1:58
Drew's thinking "God, here we go with the lies again". How she survived having this kind of mother inspires me.
What a beautiful soul Drew was, even then. She's grown into a magnificent human being.
I can’t understand how mature she was at 15 and younger compared to how she acts on her show now!
I'm from UK born in 92 I'm not sure who the male talk show host was but made me tear up it seemed like he really was rooting for her and he said it was important to have her on. He treated her with kindness, respect and dignity. I was surprised because most 80s and 90s interviews were generally quite brutal especially when you didn't see them when it was"ok" to be like that.
He's Arsenio Hall. He was famous back then. I'm confused there was only about a minute of Oprah Winfrey on here did I miss part 1 or something?
@@pamelameadows9717 what do you mean by the Oprah? Is he still around?
the way her face lights up a little when oprah brings up E.T. , which drew has mentioned over the years were good memories 😢
So intelligently spoken. She was so young during this interview. I just love this gal. ✨💖✨
Amazing Drew. You were more mature than your father and mother put together, at your young age.
Dtew will always be my favorite. Very intelligent even as a kid. She's soooo beautiful!!! Watching from the Philippines. I've watched her interviews when she was a kid and keep on watching again and again. Love you Drew❤❤❤❤❤
ARSENIO HALL WAS ONE OF THE BEST INTERVIEWERS AND TALK SHOW HOSTS OF HIS DAY,,, AMEN🙏🙏🙏!!!
HE WAS ALSO HYSTERICALLY FUNNY 🤣😝😜,.. AND VERY INTELLIGENT AND SENSITIVE!!!
I HOPE HE IS GIVEN ANOTHER TALK SHOW AND OR TELEVISION INTERVIEW SITUATION AGAIN VERY SOON🙏!!!
He's annoying and fake.
I had such a crush on Drew berrymore when I was younger. She is such a great person. She grew up to be one of the best show hosts in my opinion. Love her.
“All my problems seemed to disappear” at age of 8!! Like how in the world, not only that she used drugs and alcohol but that she had such big problems she was trying to numb at that age.
The wonderful Drew had a horrible mother, and still pulled through👏🙌✨💫
She completely cut her off. That’s why. Good for her.
And she's having her own show!
Oprah handled this interview completely wrong. I would've given Drew sympathy and Jaid professional shade for what she did to her daughter.
That's actually what she was doing. The anger was towards Drew's mother. It's very clear.
@@veganjeliza8518she also had an accusatory tone with Drew.
Oprah knows damn well why Drew was depressed around that time..
my exact thoughts! smh
She needed to ask for the audience who doesn’t know why
@@ayoayo7730 and why?
How disgusting Oprah is for questioning Drew in the way and tone that she did.
I can see the true Oprah coming through with no compassion for anyone else but herself.
Thankfully Arsenio had much more understanding compassion and delicate way of interviewing Drew..
So glad that Drew managed to overcome all the issues that she had to deal with.. Sending love hugs and positive vibes to Drew... XXXXX
It was the time of "tough love." As we all now know, tough love doesn't work.
That is so sad because I always thought she was absolutely beautiful She still is too bad she couldn’t see that
Is hard to see if everyone at school is saying that you are not beautiful, and you feel hurt because of the absence of her father, and her mother because she was working or partying with her daughter, when she should be talking care of her
Alcoholism doesn't get passed through genes. Depression and other mental health disorders do. People become alcoholic because they try to self- medicate
Madjida Akkouchi Yeah I truly believe that
She’s very honest wow. Drew has been one of my idols since I saw her in 51 st date with Adam Sandler. That’s when I learned about their connection and her story. I was like 14. That’s 10 years now. She’s very very strong to have been here at one point.
Fame and fortune never equal happiness. I've seen poor and unknown people happier.
Drew Barrymore resembles Lisa Marie Presley back then.
Leah Travis So much resemblance.
I think Hall made a well done professional job. Just interviewing, reporting facts, getting Barrymore comfortable. He didn't, even in the slightest way, judge. Winfrey totally did.
Winfrey judged the mom, probably because she had a tough childhood too and she was angry that the adult in the room didn't do better.
I’m sorry but I feel like oprah is a terrible interview in this. It sounds like an angry police interrogation to me.
It sounds more like a woman disappointed at a woman who was neglecting her child and allowing her kid to basically be taken advantage of by an industry that obviously didn’t have her best interests in mind just so she’d make money via her daughter.
And Oprah is not part of that "industry?" SMH! Come on!! Oprah does not give two 💩 's about children, well unless they're for dinner and then I'm betting she prefers white meat. 😒
So Done lol this comment is fucked bro- read a book lol
yeah its a little late to play the hard judgy parent in an interview that'S about re-playing things and digging in on the roots of the problems. Comes off as a little stupid but I guess that'S what people expected from her back then. She's not like that later in her career
Oh come on. The scolding pose in one-on-one interviews is a daytime talk show standard, Phil Donahue did it before Oprah, Dr Phil does it today. The hosts know it's schtick, but their idiotic audience demands it, especially on any issue concerning children's lives.
oprah forgets how bad she felt for years.... Drew is adorable
That yellow hair, those baby blues, the cheekbones, the dimpled smile, those legs!!! Her looks would put creators of Mattel's Barbie dolls to shame.
Yet Drew believed those envious, spiteful classmates when they called her ugly.
100% correct
That's coz she is grown up here that was before when she was chubby and younger
She is the most mature and humble celebrity
You know this is the PG version of her story. To me I think the mom was Waaaay more involved and knew exactly what was going on and was complicit, I think as long as Drew was working and getting paid and she got to go to these fabulous Hollywood parties then she was ok to let these things go on. "I went my way and she went her way" is not how you talk about your verrrry underage child , that's how you speak about a grown adult friend, who let's their child roam free at a party w strangers and drugs and alcohol all over the place. I'm not buying it.
Bless her heart at least she realizes that it was not good for her and she made a change that is wonderful I think this absolutely wonderful that she brought her self attention to that and made a change good for you Drew Barrymore I think this fabulous it takes a lot to make a change that wonderful💕
Drrew is still one of the most stunning, beautiful and autentic characters in the world of film and show.
You are very beautiful inside and out.
OPRAH WAS AND IS A BI%!^#^# LIKE SHES SOOOOOO PERFECT AND MAKES NO MISTAKES.. AND SHES A BACK STABBER
SANDY Sanchez I know right I hate her.
I have always admire her beauty, wow!
God bless Drew Barrymore, she got through a very rough time... so happy she can enjoy her birthdays with many true heartfelt kind friends... She pays it forward with helping others, simply love her. Have a wonderful Christmas and healthy New Year!
I adore Drew Barrymore she changed her life around got clean and focused on her acting career and doing fantastic today. Thank God ! She didn't end up one of those Hollywood casualties like so many other young stars.
What? do you, mean by 🤔 that.
oh poor drew love how sweet and kind hearted she is even with the traumatic experiences she went through how she picked herself up and became a better person really made me love her even more, I just have so much sympathy for her also a lot of celebrities back then like Brooke shields, Selma Blair 😢 they looked like they were doing well but when u hear their stories later on life you just get shocked and saddened with the miserable situations they been through…
heartbreaking..
Drew...such a gentle soul🌸🍃🌸🍃🌸
She was at Disneyland riding the Matterhorn when she was just 12. Crazy 80s. She pulled through though, whatever you think of her you have to give her props for not getting defeated... good for her.
i want to have that book Little Girl Lost so bad! i just love Drew Barrymore! now, i'm so happy to see her now. a very inspiring story
In 2021 she admitted she was totally clean for 2 years. In all of her interviews as a pre-teen and teen she was high in everyone of them.
