Rare Photos Of Drew Barrymore The Internet Has Never Seen Before

Drew then landed a job working at a trendy LA coffeehouse called the Living Room, since she wasn’t quite able to get back to acting after all the bad things she went through became public knowledge.

Even though she was 14, she had no idea how to cook meals for herself or do her own laundry, so she learned. She taught herself.

Domestic life skills weren’t the only things Drew ended up teaching herself. She had completely dropped out of school around the time she became emancipated and Drew then taught herself instead of going back to school.

Drew worked her butt off and returned to Hollywood with her edgy role in the movie Poison Ivy, which came out when she was 18-years-old.

After that movie, Drew continued to pick up parts, playing something of a “bad girl” which as we know can be limiting for those on the big screen once you become known for a certain kind of role.

Drew then starred in The Wedding Singer with Adam Sandler, and it completely changed things for her. She broke her bad girl mold.

Everyone ended up loving Drew, and the spotlight was back on her for only good reasons. From there, Drew has built herself into quite a success. Aside from acting and writing several books, Drew has gone on to be a director and producer.

She also launched her own cruelty-free makeup line called FLOWER Beauty, is a mom to two daughters Frankie and Olive, and now has her own talk show.

Drew has truly risen from the ashes to prove that with hard work and determination, you can really overcome anything.
