Drew Barrymore Enjoyed Working With Justin Long
Posted by Adam
DREW Barrymore loved working with on/off beau Justin Long!
The actress — who refuses to confirm whether she and Long are still in a relationship — teamed up with Justin for upcoming romantic comedy Going the Distance, which tells the story about a young couple trying to make a long-distance relationship work.
And Barrymore says she enjoyed sharing the screen with Long.
“He, by the way, is the most wonderful person to work with,” she said.
“I’m so excited about this movie. As a girl, I relate to this movie and the boy in me loves the comedy in this movie. It is a very good date movie!
“I loved getting to do a film with someone that I do have a history with and we could bring a tremendous amount of honesty to it. We sort of saw that as a surreal opportunity and maybe it will feel a little more relatable-to because it is kind of real.”
Drew — who first took cocaine at the age of 12 — recently admitted she experienced “tremendous pain” growing up in the public eye.
“My hedonistic moment wasn’t that tumultuous,” she said. “It just happened at such a young age so it seemed way crazier than it was. Everyone goes to a point where they do stuff excessively.
“And the majority of people bounce back. Some of them fall into the rabbit hole – I just got mine out of the way early.
“There were moments when I experienced tremendous pain with everything being so known. You’re like, ‘Can I f***ing f**k up or have an embarrassing moment or do anything in f***ing private?’ ”
