Question

Although she’s quite young Drew Barrymore can be a Hollywood legend (传奇). She was born on February 22 1975 in California. Being from a family that produced great actors she quickly found her way into the spotlight (聚光灯).

When she was 11 months old she made her first advertisement on TV. She made her first movie at the age of 2. Five years later she acted Gertie in Steven Spielberg’s famous film E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial (1982).

However it wasn’t all roses and sunshine when Barrymore was growing up. She was drinking wine by the time she was 9 smoking marijuana (大麻) at 10.

Most kid stars in Hollywood fail to become stars as adults. And most of the time once they’re out of the spotlight they stay out. But Drew Barrymore doesn’t.

As she was growing older Barrymore got to learn that life is more meaningful than dangerous actions in the films. She started to build a career in 1997. She has made many successful films since then including Charlie’s Angels (2000) and 50 First Dates (2004).

“In my life there is darkness and drama and I ‘m trying my best. I just want to challenge myself and prove that I can do more.”

In fact if you don’t know her disordered childhood you might find it hard to believe she’s such a sweet person now. Like many of the characters she plays in her comedy Drew is easy-going and laughs a lot. In 2007 she was on the cover of People magazine’s 100 Most Beautiful People issue.

“Life is very interesting … in the end some of your greatest pains become your greatest strengths ” Drew said.
