I'm from the UK and would defo agree that Drew is an INTERNATIONAL world treasure for sure. Never have I ever felt I loved a lady in showbiz as much as I do Drew ☀️✨🌟💖🤗
Lol definitely not unproblematic- she’s been through a tough life. That wasn’t her fault. She’s definitely handled herself with Grace though. She’s amazing.
Unproblematic now, yes very much. But what makes this so incredible to me is that she pulled herself up from: not only an absent father and although she was present, an absent mother, fame at an early age, all the drugs and alcohol and addiction, all the crazy things she did, emancipated from her parents (at the age of 14!) and living on her own, she went through through all this and yet became a successful actress in adulthood despite being label poison by Hollywood, became a successful producer, started her own production company and different product lines all while being the kind, compassionate human being she is. From the guests accounts, she is obviously a wonderful friend and of course last but by no means least a wonderful mother. I marvel at her accomplishments. She has the Barrymore name, but she got where she is by pure determination and hard work while maintaining a lovely spirit.
I have a newfound respect for Steven Speilberg after this. So touching that she felt his care for her and they remain close to this day. I love how she acknowledges he's "the first person to care for (her)". You can truly feel the love right there.
Why the shock of seeing Letterman? Easy. He’s not an outgoing man. To get him to show up to an event or something is beyond difficult and he did it for her? Amazing. You could see it on her face. I’m a big fan of Drew Barrymore. She’s such an amazing person after going through a tough adolescence.
@Michael No it is. If they had scheduled this only BECAUSE of Lohan and Aniston, it would be ill-timed. Which this wasnt this stood on it's own merits, soley unrelated to the other.
There was w fan club for her on the early internet. She did not have -or understand maybe? Don’t remember exactly - internet but would write us fans the sweetest letters which the couple who ran the site would repost. I was so obsessed with her! Lol She will always be my favorite celebrity.
@Leslie Ann humble in such a genuine way too. not that fake or false humble that celebs do sometimes. you can tell she loves and respects everyone. just super grounded.
So sad that she feels like Spielberg was the first person to care about her , because of her parents and hard childhood. Thank God she has him. So sweet 😢
@Evy Courtney she said it to Stephen your correct. Sorry about that. But she loved letterman too. So I got confused. Happens at wine is fine time. My bad darlin..😊
I went to a taping of James Corden, and when Drew came out she looked right at my sister and me and smiled and waved at us. She probably doesn’t remember it but it was just so welcoming. I didn’t feel like there was this celeb in front of me, just seemed like a really kind person. She was the best part of the taping, she seemed so genuine.
I WATCHED THIS ENTIRE EPISODE AND GOSH IM JUST SOOO HAPPY FOR HER AND THAT SHE HAD THE BEST SWEETEST DAY! Drew is one of those people that actually deserve all the success they have had in their life and a light and icon in everyone else’s. I love you Drew Barrymore. My whole childhood to up until me being 24 now, your films and bubbly personality have always provided entertainment and love and been around. So thanks.
Drew is so real! Who could NOT love this exceptional woman!? I love her so very much! 🤗 She can be so impulsive, but I understand that, because, I too, am a pisces. 😉
Drew is the coolest for NOT keeping it together! That is authenticity. Thank you for being you. So much love to you Drew. Happy belated Birthday!💗🧡💗🧡💗💛💗🧡💗🧡💗
All I can say is with all of the heaviness going on all around me/us/the world, I can only speak for myself when I say I really NEEDED this today more than ever. Humans celebrating another human, celebrating kindness, love, growth, maturity, friendships etc. This was the most beautiful experience I've had in a really long time. I am very close in age to Drew and have been a fan of hers from the get-go and it's lovely that she is so loved, and loves incredibly hard! I don't don't you Drew but I hope you know that you've made a difference in the lives of some of us who admire you from afar. Happy Birthday xo
I think Drew has taken a unique approach to the contemporary talk show and Im glad, If they keep getting high quality, and intelligent guests, with prolific insight.
I'm so glad I got to see this....I love Drew! I sobbed my way through this! So happy she can see the love people have for her. Happy Birthday Drew!! :)
I’ve literally cried through this entire episode 💙 happy tears for drew !!! I’m here for this love 💕- is it possible to be so supportive of a celebrity who has no idea about your existence. But what Jimmy Fallon said about Drew is so true - she is completely a 100% when she is interviewing someone. She is so involved and such a great listener. Much love to you Drew. Keep blooming
Drew is one of those celebrities that is getting the ultimate revenge in hollywood, she's looking so much better as she ages than most of her counterparts!!
This is an engaging show. Some of her guests bring me back to a time when the world wasn't in so much deep trouble, like David Letterman, whose show I've missed, or Lucy Liu and Cameron Diaz. I've never seen Savannah Guthrie prior to this show though she looks familiar, but she's a good balance as co-host...i hope this show lasts very very long. It's quite refreshing...
Not followed her career as extensively at others, but I still think Scream had the best ever horror movie opening, extremely well written scene and likely wouldn't have had the same impact without Drew Barrymore.
That was a ton of fun! A birthday to remember for sure. Drew is so appreciative and grateful for everything and everyone in her life. No wonder her life is blessed and she is loved so much.
Drew is an angel on earth. I have a childhood memory of going to watch my first movie the day E.T. opened, and I will never forget that memory, and what Drew means to me.
I have always LOVED Drew. I mean who doesn’t, she is a ray of sunshine and a true definition of a survivor. A breath of Fresh air, always humbled and a delight to watch. Happy Birthday Drew! 🎁🎈👑 Thank You for staying true to Yourself and showing us that’s ok to be who we want to be and not what society thinks we should be.
You can just really tell how good she is as a friend to everyone who never burn bridges but had always keep the communication open throughout the years of her existence in the showbiz. Once you become a part of her life, it will be a lifetime. I need her positivity everyday in my life. Her genuine reactions and her appreciation at every little things. What a sunshine for all of us! ❤️❤️❤️
This made me cry more than once! It was a blessing for me to see this, as I’m sure it was for you to see how many people love you, Drew! And me too! God bless you!
No Adam sandler?! What a ray of sunshine Drew is and you can tell who she is as a person by all those wonderful words coming from such amazing friends of hers! PROTECT HER AT All COSTS
This Birthday Special celebrating everything and more about Drew, is warming my socially isolated heart in lockdown. Added to my fuzzy-feel-good-content playlist. 💖
As a Baby Boomer, I got to watch Drew move through her childhood since ET to evolve into a beautiful, interesting woman. Not many child celebrities can manage the fame. Drew came out the other side as an amazing person! She lived her life as herself and continues to do so. Being a non-famous teenager is a challenge in itself. Having all those doors open for someone so young. Drew is an accomplished actress. She has the character and integrity to show for it all. Happy Birthday Drew!
Damn i cried so much the whole time. So beautiful n special. Makes you think of your own life to. It reminded me of my pop who past two weeks after my birthday in November in 2017. How special the older people in our lives. Happy Birthday drew xx
That was awesome that all her friends made her day so special and memorable for a woman who obviously is very loved. Not only does she seem to have a nice circle of close friends, but she must be a very good friend herself, if she is so appreciated by them. Good for her. Happy belated bday Drew.
Just seeing this 🥺 happy late bday drew! This is so wholesome to watch to know how wild her life was she now cherishes and truly absorbs the love from her people. And she still returns it with the same vibration. Beautiful to watch. You will always be our favorite girl drew!
Drew has always been my favorite!! My real sister from another mister! I hope it was the Happiest Birthday!! 🥳🎂🍾🥂🎁🎈🎉😘 Also, WHY am I crying so damn much!?! Sheeeesh
Happy Birthday Drew! Wishing you many blessings and an abundance of happiness. I’d just recently recovered from COVID and your show was the first show I watched when I was feeling better, and for that I thank you. ✌🏻❤️😃
So well deserved, what a beautiful person and inspiration. You know she truly cares about other people when even her shows team adores her! I'm bawling over here.
Thank you for posting the show in its entirety! I don't watch television so I only get to see Drew on youtube. It was awesome to watch it more linear. Happy Late Birthday Drew!!!
I’ve been such a big fan of Drew Barrymore. Always thought she was the most beautiful person I have ever seen and she still is. This birthday is so special and so well deserved. She’s overcome so much! I’m am so happy for her. Happy birthday Drew! 🎉🎂🎊keep on shining ☀️
And she's had such an amazing life, filled with people who love her, because she's kept going and has been a true friend, loving person, and kept a positive/sense of humor about life. They reiterated that her interest and focus is always on loving whoever is around her. We get what we put out, all of us. 🤎
Not sure why but Drew Barrymore always feels like a little sister. I've rooted for her all along. Happy birthday and many, many more. Positive vibes from New Hampshire and remember to be kind to each other and yourself during this pandemic and social crisis
Omg Drew is such a sweet ray of sunshine despite everything she has been through. You feel her warmth and caring persona through the screen, and despite how famous she is, she’s always remained so genuine and humble, I love her 🥺♥️
