Drew Barrymore: ‘Justin Long is Great’

Drew BarrymoreDREW Barrymore has nothing but praise for her on/off boyfriend Justin Long.

The actress — who is rumored to have split from the Drag Me to Hell star — has revealed why she wanted to work with Long in new movie Going the Distance.

“I just really wanted to get the chance to work with Justin because he has one of the sharpest wits of anyone I know,” says Drew on working with Justin.

“He’s such a great guy and a dream to work with.”

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?’ ”
