The Earlier Days of Drew Barrymore

Groovy History

Drew Barrymore is no stranger to Hollywood. Aside from starring in her very first movie when she was just 6 years old, she also belongs to a family of distinguished actors, with Sophia Lauren as her very own godmother. But growing up in the spotlight wasn’t always easy, and Drew had many tumultuous years as a teen, even emancipating herself from her parents at the tender age of 14. Drew even admitted that it was the wrong move, explaining to The Guardian that her apartment was such a mess, you’d need a HAZMAT to go inside. She said, “I had no idea how to run an apartment at 14. There was fungus growing everywhere, it was a disaster. It was in a dangerous neighborhood and I was so scared to sleep. I had bars on the window and alley cats f*cking 30 feet away. I was so terrified.”
