This is why I say if Britney ever wanted to tell her story I think Drew would be the most amazing and compassionate person for her to go to. Love Drew Barrymore I have seen many of her movies and have loved all of them. She is a genuine and sweet soul.

How in the hell she not only survived, but came out okay is beyond me. I was always aware of her life, but at this moment, I'm truly in awe and very inspired.

[DarA-vhzo]

she needs her own documentary I’d love to hear her tell us her story in full

[yasminejasmine]

“I don’t have to be lonely anymore” I felt that down to my soul….

[pamelaleannefreeland]

This is the best segment she’s done. It’s real, raw. It’s life. Even though she’s wealthy and famous, she’s still human.

[rabbitruler]

Oh man. When she said that we go through things and we can’t be embarrassed by them, they have to be our strengths…that’s such a mature and empowering way of looking at hard times.

[valerie]

She's the most genuine person I've ever seen in Hollywood. I can't imagine the depths of her strength. I'm always in awe of her

[di-jtjp]

We love her dearly because she shows her vulnerability, insight, humanity, compassion, humor and pure love. And it’s not fake. She has such an amazing soul. She’s our sister.

Imagine at 14 living alone? I spent most of my childhood alone, no siblings, no mom, a dad who worked 12-13 hour days. I really get what she’s saying when she says she wants to live in a place with lots of people coming in and out. I cried just watching this. Drew is just a good girl. That’s a rarity in LA.

Drew is one of the child stars that I'm so happy she's not only living but thriving..she deserves it..she's exactly what you Want a celebrity to act like..what always blew my mind is she has been famous since being a kid and she's more humble then a lot of adult Actors who started as adults..I have always loved drew, she is such a light.

[melissaisloud]

She has been broken and put back together so many times. She’s a beautiful, unique mosaic of life experience!

[mr.a.]

This should be a series. Take celebrities through a journey in time to all the places that impacted there life. Talk about a great story! Wow 😯

[MichaelDG]

Drew is SO genuine.

I’ve loved her since she first screamed at ET in Elliot’s closet.

[pam]

The sign of a healthy person is how Drew was able to pull herself out of her sad mood in the beginning. (“I grew up lonely but now my house is like Grand Central”). And how she understands her mom better now. That’s real healing & progress.

[e.a.c.]

“By the way, that’s an underrated emotion, relief.” So true!

[kay]

Absolutely love this. Don't get why they didn't make a bigger deal of showing people this... and its not on instagram so it's less share-able... its really powerful and sweet and funny, just like Drew.

Imagine hearing the strangest sound you ever heard and when you go out to investigate you find Drew Barrymore standing outside your home mimicking the sound of a horny cat.

i spent over a year in a teen institution. i sincerely think that the troubled teen industry is the darkest most f***ed up part of america. her saying “i thought i’d be here forever” hit me. i thought i would die in that place. begging your family to save you and they don’t care because they think you deserve it. drew really is such an inspiration showing how she made it from that dark place to where she is now ❤️

[jessicarenae]

*Drew talking about her childhood just makes you realize why she is as humble and strong as she is!! I had a tough childhood and my mom always taught me to be strong and look at the positive!! You don't understand it as much as you do when your older!! You learn to appreciate what you learn from your struggles and the strength it gives you!! You either let hard times get you down or, you learn and let it strengthen you to be and do better!!*

Love that Drew absolutely respected the new owner's privacy, but still explained why it was important to her - so real. And thank you for respecting others' privacy! and keeping it real!
