I want to apologize first with my long absence from the site. I just got back from being in Europe for a month, and didn’t have much time to get online! Luckily there was not much news that we missed out on though! I do have some good news for you today. Drew is Elle’s cover girl for August! I personally love this photoshoot, Drew looks stunning. Scans will be added from the magazine soon, but here is a sneak peak of the article thanks to Elle.com:

On taking stock of where she is now: “For three years straight, I’ve been burning the candle at both ends, and as of last December, I just didn’t have anything left. I’ve been so aggressive about living life to the fullest and being plugged into everything, but now I’ve ripped the plug out of the wall and put it on the floor for a while. I’m thinking about the same things as when I was 15, about spirituality and who I am, who I want to be. It’s cocoon, pupa, larva, and fuck, I’m reborn!”

On the media’s misconceptions of her: “I make movies. I have a passion. Puppies and daisies don’t accomplish anything. That’s not me at all.”

On being single: “If you’re 35 and single and it’s a choice, it feels fine. So I didn’t settle with the wrong person yet. Big deal!”

On her upcoming role in Going the Distance: “I like that it’s not a traditional romantic comedy, with the story line of, ‘Oh, I slept with this guy, but when I woke up, I found out he’s the CEO of my company, and we’re going to live happily ever after once we go through all these crazy perils. I talk shit with my girlfriends. And it can get dirty.”

On why she’s not afraid to get older: “I don’t want to be vain or fearful, and I don’t think I’ll do anything [in terms of plastic surgery], but if I want to do something, I will. From my perspective, there’s no reason to be afraid of aging, because if you age, you’re lucky! The alternative is death.”

On child stardom: “I was raised in unique and trying environments, but they were also amazing platforms for me to have an extraordinary life. Going through hell as a kid made me sensitive to what others in this world go through too.”

Apparently one of Drew’s upcoming films, Everybody Loves Whales is set to be filmed in Alaska. Check it out:

A production company plans to begin shooting “Everybody Loves Whales,” a $30 million movie starring Drew Barrymore, this September in Alaska, the executive producer said Friday.

The film is based on the 1988 attempt to rescue three gray whales trapped by sea ice near Barrow, though the majority of filming will take place in Anchorage. Barrymore plays a Greenpeace worker while John Krasinski — Jim from NBC’s “The Office” — portrays a small-town news reporter covering the story.

Hello everyone! My name is Chelsa and I am the proud new owner of Miss Barrymore. You might know me from my other sites, Sarah Jessica Central and Amy Adams Fan. I would like to thank Camilla for allowing me to take over this great site. She will definitely be missed! If you have any questions or concerns, please let me know in the comments.

I will be adding screencaptures of some of Drew’s films that we do not have in the gallery soon. Also, hopefully Drew will be attending the MTV Movie Awards tonight. Make sure you check back for more coverage on Drew!

No official word has been given yet but it’s always interesting to hear about Drew being in the talks for a new project.

She tried her hand at directing last year with the little-seen roller derby comedy Whip It!, but now Drew Barrymore will attempt to refresh a classic: The Wizard of Oz. The Golden Globe-winning actress is reportedly set to direct a sequel to the 1939 film called Surrender Dorothy, which follows Dorothy’s great-great granddaughter as she tries to protect Earth and Oz from the (presumably resurrected) Wicked Witch of the West with the help of those famous ruby slippers. No word yet from Barrymore on the project.
