-- Drew Barrymore says she's comfortable discussing her drug-riddled childhood -- as long as the questions don't go too far. "You should have heard this b**** I had to do an interview with before you here. God, I wanted to punch her, she would just not drop the youth thing. I have no problem talking about it. I am not someone who is ashamed of my past," Barrymore, 35, told a reporter from the London Daily Standard. "I'm actually really proud. I know I made a lot of mistakes, but they in turn were my life lessons. It's actually good to get it done young and have a great life later. But yeah, man, I wanted to rip this woman's face off. She just would not shut up about it." [Huffington Post]

    I never hear Drew complain about anyone, for her to do so she must have a really good reason. Some reporters are so brash and don't care about pushing the limit.

    I love you Drew and your attitude is adorable. She obviously just wants some kind of STORY since your life is so peaceful now! Why cant they just leave well enough alone?

    People totally need to leave people's pasts alone if it isn't your own then you have no right to judge or sit there and comment end of story...

    Way to go, Drew. I worked on the same Love@AOL site that your Mom did. And I can only imagine what your childhood must have been like. You have grace, talent, intelligence, and beauty, both inside and out. Keep up the Good Work! and Keep Smilin'... Dr. Kate

  • August 26, 2010 - 3:09am leave Elin, Drew alone

    u know, drew, i think Elin Nordegren feels the same way like earlier today as she dropped her children off to daycare. some of these reporters are vile almost sub-humans.

    Walking out of the interview is a much better option than ripping a person's face off. You still have a choice in this world.

  • August 25, 2010 - 10:28pm karleen

    Get her, Drew!!! You're a classy, beautiful woman and your past has made you who you are. :)

  • August 25, 2010 - 8:38pm You are lucky a reporter is talking to you at all, Drew.

    Drew Barrymore is definitely irrelevant these days. She is lucky a reporter would give her time of day.

    oh come on! She probably doesnt want to talk about it because she will get drug pangs.

  • August 25, 2010 - 8:32pm .

    That overrated broad is even more annoying than Jennifer Aniston. I get tired of her "I'm so cool and bisexual crap, her lisp, her sunken pie face and her stupid antics. Oh, she can't act either.

  • August 25, 2010 - 7:23pm Tracey

    These articles about "STARS'"are such a bore now. That's the real reason reality TV is so "HOT" now. They people in them actually give the viewers something to see

    Not a failure a lesson. Something everyone should live by. Everything can be turned into a life lesson. and i'm only 15!!!

  • August 25, 2010 - 6:03pm Casey

    Oh, boo hoo. What a rough job you have. In some other interview she said she wants to slap women who don't enjoy doing magazine photo shoots. Agro.

  • August 25, 2010 - 5:47pm Jon

    Sorry to hear about that, Drew, you go girl, you should've done that!
