Drew Barrymore was going to host the MTV Movie & TV Awards this Sunday night. But today, she announced that she is pulling out of them because of the Writers Guild of America’s strike.
“I have listened to the writers, and in order to truly respect them, I will pivot from hosting the MTV Movie & TV Awards live in solidarity with the strike,” Barrymore said in a statement to Variety. “Everything we celebrate and honor about movies and television is born out of their creation. And until a solution is reached, I am choosing to wait but I’ll be watching from home and hope you will join me. I thank MTV, who has truly been some of the best partners I have ever worked with. And I can’t wait to be a part of this next year, when I can truly celebrate everything that MTV has created, which is a show that allows fans to choose who the awards go to and is truly inclusive.”
So what is going to happen on Sunday? The show will go on. But without a host. And just because Barrymore won’t be there, it doesn’t mean we won’t see her. She pre-taped several bits ahead of the live broadcast that will still be part of the show.
As of now, the awards show is still being mapped out, and they are waiting to hear who and who will not attend. I think that Barrymore’s announcement will be the beginning of celebrities dropping out. But I could be wrong.
The producers plan on addressing the Writers Strike but not dwelling on it. They said this is a show where the fans vote, so they are going to make it for them.
Ben Affleck was on The Drew Barrymore Show today, and he talked about Jennifer Lopez’s eating habits.
“Let me tell you something that’s gonna upset you. Jennifer just eats whatever she wants. Whatever she wants. She eats cookies, ice cream, everything,” Mr. J-Lo said. “She works out. I work out too but I don’t magically appear to be twenty years old, you know what I mean, with perfect skin and the whole thing. There’s no taking away of the work ethic, the work ethic is real, the discipline is real, but also the superhuman thing is real. She’s the most gorgeous woman in the world, she looks spectacular.”
I would believe that his wife ate junk food if she wasn’t such a bitch. I mean, I think if she had a piece of chocolate every now and again, she would be a nicer person.
Do you believe she eats anything she wants? Or do you think he is trying to humanize his wife?
Warning that headline is totally deceptive! But it’s my site, and I’ll do what I want to.
So back to the story. When Drew Barrymore was a little girl, she had chickenpox. And when Rob Lowe heard about it, he called her to see how she was doing. And she can still remember everything about that call.
That is because back in the ’80s, everyone was obsessed with him, including her. So his call was something she will never forget.
Just like the night when he invited her to his birthday party. The actress told the actor on The Drew Barrymore Show today, “It was the best night of my life!”
The Lowe said to her, “You were so great on the dance floor, cutting it up. You were like a little mini-Madonna.” And that is what she was going for.
With all of the women he dated, it is a shame these two never hooked up. Well, I guess there is that 11-year age difference. So by the time she was old enough to date him, he was already married. But they would’ve been great together. Could you imagine them skipping on the red carpet together?
Are you sitting down? Can you believe it has been 25 years since we fell in love with Ever After? Well, it has been. And today, Drew Barrymore reunited with her stepsisters, Melanie Lynskey and Megan Dodds, from the Cinderella retelling on her talk show.
Along with reuniting, they shared behind-the-scenes secrets. For example, on day three of filming, Lynskey and Dodds went into the nearby cornfield and took topless photos of each other. That is the stuff taboo porn is all about!
But that is not all. Barrymore shared that she used her grandfather John Barrymore’s partying with Angelica Huston’s father, John Huston, to get the legendary actress to play her Evil Stepmother in the movie. Whatever worked because the casting was brilliant.
Not only was her casting perfect, as was Dougray Scott as Prince Henry. He almost didn’t get the part because he had a bad first audition, but Drew went to bat for him. And the rest is a fairy tale come true.
Back to the actresses. It truly is like they stepped into a time machine because they look exactly the same as they did a quarter of a century.
And now I am off to watch Ever After again for the umpteenth time. It is the perfect story of true love.
Adam Sandler has five leading ladies in his life. There is his wife, Jackie, his two daughters, Sadie and Sunny, Drew Barrymore, and Jennifer Aniston.
However, he only works with the latter two on the big screen. But he has never worked with them together.
Today when Sandler and Aniston were on The Drew Barrymore show to promote Murder Mystery 2, the three of them discussed which movie they could make together. They decided on doing a remake of Three’s Company with Sandler as Jack, Barrymore as Janet, and Aniston as Chrissy Snow.
Personally, I think the girls should switch up the roles because Aniston is more of a Janet.
Would you see the three of them if they did that movie? Of course, I would if were a Razzie nom, and I had to watch it to make my choice for Worst Film, Worst Remake, Worst Actor, Worst Actress, Worst Remake, Worst Trio, and so on. And I am sure it would sweep the Razzies that year.
