Tip - Flower as an Equalizer: Drew Barrymore on Beauty, Business, and Being a Woman

The thing about former Vanity Fair cover girl Drew Barrymore—and I’m not the first to say this—is that she is so down-to-earth it’s almost disarming. She’s been a household name since I started watching movies, and yet it was easy to forget, upon meeting her, that I once knew every line to Never Been Kissed (1999). Her celebrity status somehow disappears the moment you hear her familiar, subtle lisp and sweet voice. We’ve all seen a Drew Barrymore film—one that she starred in, directed, or produced with her production company, Flower Films. She’s no stranger to the screen, the news, or the tabloids. Actress, producer, model, spokeswoman, advocate of equal rights, United Nations ambassador against hunger, wife, and mother, she now takes on another title—businesswoman.
