I like Drew Barrymore like I like a lot of people – sometimes she’s really cool and fun to hang with, then other times she’s just annoying. At this precise moment, however, I like Drew Barrymore. A lot. Although I’m not constantly bombarded by fans and paparazzi (not daily, anyway), I imagine that hearing the same questions from reporters over and over again can get pretty friggin’ irritating. And apparently, being interviewed by a reporter who won’t let go of the past makes Drew Barrymore want to get violent. Drew Barrymore says she’s comfortable discussing...

Why yes, I did have a good birthday today. Thanks for asking! The day started like any other day – except for the chocolate cupcake for breakfast, of course.
