Drew Blythe Barrymore was born on 22nd February 1975 at Culver City, Los Angeles, California, USA in the famous Hollywood-royalty Barrymore family. When she was only 11 months old she acted in a TV commercial. At the tender age of 7, Drew was caste in box office record setter 'E.T.' in the year 1982. Drew was dropped out of school at the age of 14 and the negative side of her child stardom was revealed. She then went on to publish her autobiography, 'Little Girl Lost' in the year 1990.
She started drinking at the age of 9, dope smoking at the age of 10 and coke snorting at the age of 12. These were some of the spots on Barrymore's descent.
In the year 1992, she played the role of a young seductress not following any moral in 'Poison Ivy' after appearing in small roles in seldom seen movies. This role enhanced her minor image which was further cemented by a Guess add shot by Ellen Von Unwerth. She was promoting a jeans ad campaign and this later on highlighted her trashy white sex appeal. Barrymore tends to be more comfortable in low class, highly excited projects like 'The Amy Fisher Story' (which was a TV movie in the year 1993), 'Guncrazy' in 1992, and the short-lived soap '2000 Malibu Road' in 1992, rather than in Hollywood's mid-budget projects like 'Bad Girls' in 1994, 'Boys on the Side' in 1995, and 'Mad Love' in 1995. Drew then got married on March 1994 to an LA bar owner, but within two months of her marriage Drew applied for divorce and later got engaged with Hole guitarist Eric Erlandson. In her many TV talk show appearances Drew could not stop praising for Hole guitarist Eric Erlandson.
Drew has finally settled down, after several nude public appearances including the David Letterman, and the China Club thus leaving her bad girl image, attitude for a more matured womanly one. Drew then appeared on MTV as a spokesperson, and actress for a women's condom commercial.
Drew was excellent in Wes Craven's 'Scream' in 1996, Woody Allen's 'Everyone Says I Love You' in 1996, and 'The Wedding Singer' in 1997. Drew met her new love, Luke Wilson, on a film shoot in the year 1996 but broke up with in the year of 1999. In 1998, she played the role of Cinderella with dedication in the movie 'Ever After', a pregnant fast-food worker in 'Home Fries', and played Luke Wilson's fiancée in the movie 'Best Men'. On April 9, 1999 her first produced movie 'Never Been Kissed' got released in the theaters. The name of her production company is Flower Films and her partner is Nancy Jevonen. The next movie that got released from Flower Films is 'Charlie's Angels', which was a major success.
Drew is now enjoying her life and hopes to continue in the same way in the future.
