[@joannaedwards6325]

Yeah. I think Drew and Janis Joplin are the role models for IT'S GREAT TO JUST BE YOUR AUTHENTIC SELF. 😊💋🌈

[@lauralunaazul]

Same feeling

[@AngelusHale]

Her life is actually something I would wanne read. It's also amazing how she pulled herself up after all the crap she went trough with drugs and booze, and her family. Inspiring life.

[@mikehunt146]

Just say alcohol

[@nanamthembu2028]

And did you live her life to know how she felt?

[@aaronsensei7637]

she has always been so charismatic even when she was little. she was meant for the roles she played in movies. definitely a favorite actor of mine, always personality in every movie. love her interviews too

[@Cecebornbadhh]

The audience didn't know when to laugh and when not to laugh ... lml

[@joannaedwards6325]

And after you see just one Drew Barrymore interview (Especially when she was a child) you're hooked and continue to choose more. 😊 At least that's what happened to me. I spent a whole afternoon with her. So enjoyable. ❤

[@rebeccahopkins9522]

When she paused and shook her head and said, “Dad?” It made me cry a little. So touching. Adore her.

[@drrenesam]

“It was a moment when you can have hope about anything being possible...” How beautiful is that..

Drew is such a nice, positive, and a relatable person. I love her as an actress.. After what she has been gone through over the years. I am so happy that she is happy now.

[@BLGhomiie]

the way she talks just draws me in. I feel like she just spews happiness with everything she says, it makes me forget my troubles. I don't know that's strange but it's a calm feeling.

[@_prof.paradox_]

I was just watching the 7 year old drew's interview. And then this. She is still as cute as she was back then!

[@Waffles711]

I could just listen to her talk forever. Wow. I love drew

[@adorablegirl1559]

Whitney I just thought the same thing

[@jaiwhi]

Whitney me too I love the way she talks

[@kirstiewallace2830]

She's such a lovely woman. She seems so down to earth and caring. She makes even the bad sound positive ( like her parents ) inspiring x

[@bcorzine1]

I don't remember that one

[@joshtake1]

that's ok, its not her best work

[@bcorzine1]

joshua newman sarcasm mayn....cuz she can't remember anything in the movie:)

[@kdawson8981]

One of my favorite romantic movie!! I had a head injury and I have a scar on my head under my hair. I don’t forget everyday lol! Thank goodness. But that movie is gold to me. I grew up in the 80’s so ET is part of my childhood nostalgia. Drew Barrymore is Hollywood royalty.

[@Azuwat]

She had a tough life emotionally. To be exposed so young to hollywood culture that open a young child to excess and abuse. To forgive and heal takes a lot of effort and she succeeded where many failed. Shia lebouf and the mickey mouse kids are some of the examples.. Children needs normal life.. If they dont experience that, there is an emotional and spiritual hole that needs to be filled...

[@Yehamarin]

I have such a big crush on her. She's such a rebel, sweet, cool, and just really inspiring.

[@joannaedwards6325]

Me too. My woman crushes along with Drew are Linda Ronstadt and Mariska Hagerty (Law and Order Special Victims Unit). 😜 ❤ 💋🌈

[@evansingh507]

I'm actually gonna read her book, she had a pretty interesting roller coaster of a life

[@shonaharris9328]

She is so sweet and down to earth. Love her. ❤️ I noticed how communicative and connected to the audience she was.

[@abbyfellows1716]

I look up to Drew so much. I'm 15 now, but am planning to get emancipated next year. She's done so well for herself, and I hope to do the same.

[@dearmakeupdiary]

Gosh I love her!

[@MJ18888]

I’m so glad she turned out okay!! I cannot imagine putting children that young under the spotlight. Well done Drew!

[@sravankumar7324]

if the door knob opened by itself, my first thought wouldn't be "Dad?" it would be to get the fuck outta there.

[@tkmaz]

+sravan kumar My first thought was killers from Devil's Rejects.

[@mithilamithi8902]

sravan kumar u didn't get the whole thing

[@tamariaadventri744]

I would do that too but the moment was different for Drew Barrymore. But I get it, people just have to joke about every tiny thing now. Even when it is out of context.

[@kessiawright1710]

youbetter watchout I don't think it was a disrespectful joke, I would think there was someone breaking in. She has titanium ovaries and a strong bladder. And no, I am not joking. Good memory for her though.

[@chase5682]

My first thought was wind, faulty hinges, door wasn't completely shut etc. and someone assumed it was a ghost like usual.

[@Enedina665]

I love Drew Barrymore. I'm definitely buying her book.

[@LeoGirl07]

im just kinda browsing here and then i saw Drew i was like "holy crap!!! thats my Idol" I love her so much and i love ellen for inviting her. ive been wishing to meet drew since i was like11 and im 19 now and still hoping for that day. meeting both of them would be FANTASTIC.

[@perspireandinspire]

people... am i the only one who noticed she said she was typing on a typewritter?!

+Amelie Koury I DID AS WELL!!!!!!

[@alexasearth]

so did I!

[@pocm100]

you make it sound like its an ancient thing to do

[@jubansunabi6089]

It's so satisfying to type on a typewriter

[@chase5682]

Isn't that what people usually type on?

[@MitchellWiggs]

Weird how he waited to become a ghost to want to be around her

[@umchinagirard1800]

That’s sad... perhaps... or perhaps it’s her psychology...

[@noeoleole6911]

That is true...

[@jessabentley805]

This happens often..When you’re out of your ego body, you come to terms with how you’ve affected others and your Soul wants to make amends.

[@alberto032973]

Drew is one my favorite actress very talented beautiful lady

[@EarthtoRosita]

It is frustrating that some people laugh at a time when it's supposed to be emotional but just remember, there are people out there that laugh at really emotional things like that. It's a coping mechanism for them, and it is a real thing.

[@avicabrera5398]

So amazing to hear her talk about her tumultous past without a trace if bitterness or rancor. This is actually more inspiring than i thought it would be. I hope to be in that place someday.

[@JordanJSparks]

Drew Barrymore is such an open book I love her so very deeply and relate to her story so much

[@MissGarland1986]

I absolutely adore Drew Barrymore. She is my favourite. And my girl crush. 😁

[@Subscribe2You4Ever]

3:37 Anyone else notice a few people in the audience laughing when she mentioned that her dad had cancer? She turn and was like "the hell is wrong with you people?"

wow

[@jenns.5791]

I love her. just love her. I idolized her back in the 90s when I was a teen. i mean she was my everything. I had a "Drew scrapbook" and the whole bit. lol. eventually that all stopped, but I still adore her. how can you not? she is just a beautiful, beautiful soul. ❤

[@conatcha]

I love how she looks so full of life and projects so much joy.

[@JoycelynAbtahi]

Hearing her stories makes me appreciate my parents more. But kudos to Drew for leaving all that life behind.

[@jen-a-purr]

She’s the one actress that turned out to be the most humble human ever. You just wanna be Drew’s friend. Even if you don’t know her personally. I didn’t know her childhood was so scarred. She turned out so well. She’s a legend.

[@tillyisabella6260]

she’s so beautiful and she seems like the nicest , kindest , down to earth person ily drew

[@Ms.NIkaDM]

I love her. I love Drew the person in interviews just as much as Drew the actress. The person she allows us to see is simply lovely to listen to and witness. Yup, I love her!

I love Drew, she seems like such a sweet and kind person.

[@jeffreyrafuse6950]

Oh wow I felt her so deeply, didn't get to read the book yet but feel for her moment as she explains 💞🌼💫

[@alliemay616]

Her book was amazing. I recommend listening to the audiobook, she voices it and it’s like Drew is telling you stories from her life.

[@lydiakate6415]

Wish this show was on in the uk 💚

[@borderlandwerun]

E.T. is my favorite movie of all time. I absolutely love this story. Love you, Drew!

I'm reading her book now and it's fantastic. Her perspective on life is inspiring. I love her

[@cookiesncream789]

What a lovely human being.

[@missmegypoo]

Something about her voice soothes me. I love her so much

[@valeriefaabergpitel7356]

This is me after hearing about the "visit" from her deceased dad: 😭

[@missUn1verse81]

I had a similar experience many years back, so I believe Drew when she told the story when the door knob turned and the door opened. That was her Dad visiting her.

[@bonnieoles4212]

I'm glad I got to hear her story about the door opening and she felt it was her dad. I feel it was, too.

[@ShadowinaCave]

I've always loved Drew Barrymore. Plus she's been honest about her travails without being self-important, and for me that counts for a lot.

[@AutomotiveAndShit]

She's so down to earth ❤️

TYPEWRITER???????????

+Drifter873 a retro vintage girl... why not? ;)

[@tkmaz]

+Drifter873 I just commented the same thing...scrolled down & BOOM, you said it first. I think...I"m not going to scroll further.

[@tardisruthwood2772]

when that's what you had as a child sometimes the word just sticks , I sometimes say that, meaning keyboard.

[@maryallison0509]

I can’t imagine growing up in the insane environment that she did. The movie sets, the dance bars drinking at 7, doing cocaine at 11. Not having a present father, and having a crazy mom. And living a life a child shouldn’t have to live. But yet she has grown up to be a amazing kind person who just seems lovely. And she takes a fierce interest in her children, making them good nice people. Bravo Drew you are awesome. I wish I was her friend.

[@alexandrasch.8674]

her mother has the same eyes and mouth as drew

[@roses2543]

She went through so much h from parents and she still loved them wow pretty crzy

[@calistyle95]

Her experience with her dad made me tear up....

[@Hugofreddie]

She is a wonderful lady full of grace and charm .

[@dnhk2655]

She made me tear up on the last part. But then someone in the audience let out a laugh and I got confused

[@SunnyInCaali]

Omg 😆 I love her so much 💜💕

[@r3b3lvegan89]

I love how Drew had a STE with her father after he transitioned, she should talk with IANDS because it is very real her fathers spirit visiting her when scattering his ashes.

[@littleblondemop]

Not sure why she wrote the book on a typewriter, but I'm very sure it was therapeutic to put everything in print like that. It's great that she's turned around and is a loving mom to her own child.

[@eternalgemini]

She loves vintage stuff, so it makes sense.
