Well, we must have some facts abot Drew herself too.
Drew Barrymore was born on February 22, 1975 in Los Angeles. She is the granddaughter of famous actor John. Drew Barrymore is also the great niece of Lionel and Ethel. Drew is the daughter of John and Ildiko Jaif.

Drew Barrymore is backed by family, friends and fame, yet her name stands on it's own. Drew Barrymore began acting before the early age of 1 in a TV commercial and then at 2 years in "Suddenly Love", another TV appearance. Drew Barrymore took a rest and at 4 she hit the screen in "Altered States". Then everyone wanted to know who the cute little girl was in "E.T. The Extra Terrestrial"

Drew Barrymore had less than the ideal childhood, alcohol, drugs, suicide attempt and then rehab - all by the time Drew was thirteen. Let's take a peek at Drew Barrymore's next seven years; wrote her autobiography, left home, posed nude for magazines - twice, was married and divorced, all by the time Drew was twenty.


A lot of facts you have in Wikipedia, of course.

By the way: She was in the top of People Magazine list of most beautiful people 2007.

Besides: She is performing the voice of a dog in a coming Disney film about dogs: South of the border, and she makes the voice of spoiled Chihuahua:
Drew Barrymore has signed on to star as a pampered Chihuahua in a Disney talking-animal flick. The live-action film will also be voiced by Andy Garcia, Salma Hayek, George Lopez, Cheech Martin, Placido Domingo and Edward James Olmos. Barrymore's character Chloe, used to cruising around in a purse, gets lost and must rely on friends to help her get home.
