Drew Barrymore: I've Never Felt Comfortable with the 'Camaraderie of Famous People'

Drew Barrymore takes the cover of Marie Claire magazine’s April 2016 issue.

Here’s what the 41-year-old actress had to share with the mag:

On fame and celebrity friendship: “I’ve never felt comfortable with this, sort of, camaraderie of famous people. I’ve known Poo Poo [Cameron Diaz] since I was 14 years old. We just happened to know each other before her career started, and I was working in a coffeehouse trying to re-figure out my life. So in a weird way, it doesn’t even count with us.”

On making an effort: “I went to parent’s night, and I wore some lipstick and concealer, and I thought the people at school looked at me kind of differently. I normally come with acne, and Ugg boots, and I thought they were like, ‘Oh That’s nice, she made a little bit of an effort.’”

On being self-taught: “It was prompted a little bit by a fear of I don’t want to end up being 25 and not having ever educated myself in any way.”
