Drew Barrymore: Fashion Celebrity Guide

Drew Blyth Barrymore is an American actress, film director, producer, and model. She is a descendant of the Barrymore family of well-known American stage and cinema actors, and she is the granddaughter of film legend John Barrymore. She first appeared in an advertisement when she was 11 months old. Barrymore made her film debut in Altered States in 1980. Afterwards, she starred in her breakout role as Gertie in Steven Spielberg's E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial. She quickly became one of Hollywood's most recognized child actresses, going on to establish herself in mainly comic roles.  Following a turbulent childhood which was marked by recurring drug and alcohol abuse and two stints in rehab, Barrymore wrote the 1990 autobiography, Little Girl Lost. She successfully made the transition from child star to adult actress with a number of films including Poison Ivy, Bad Girls, Boys on the Side, and Everyone Says I Love You. Subsequently, she established herself in romantic comedies such as The Wedding Singer and, later, 50 First Dates. In 1997 she and business partner Nancy Juvonen formed the production company Flower Films, with its first production the 1999 Barrymore film Never Been Kissed. Flower Films has gone on to produce the Barrymore vehicle films Charlie's Angels, 50 First Dates, and Music and Lyrics, as well as the cult film Donnie Darko.  Barrymore was also involved in projects such as He's Just Not That into You, Beverly Hills Chihuahua, Everybody's Fine and Going the Distance.

Hollywood Royalty, Famous Before School Age

Barrymore's timeline has no real parallel in this section: an advertisement at 11 months old, a film debut in Altered States in 1980, and a breakout as Gertie in E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial that made her one of Hollywood's most recognized child actresses — all as the granddaughter of John Barrymore and a descendant of the Barrymore stage and cinema dynasty. A public image formed that early is followed for life, through every change of style that growing up in public involves, which is the deepest reason she belongs in a fashion celebrity guide.

The Adult Career

The 1990 autobiography Little Girl Lost addressed the turbulent childhood directly, and the transition to adult actress followed with Poison Ivy, Bad Girls, Boys on the Side and Everyone Says I Love You, establishing her mainly in comic roles, with directing, producing and modelling added to the credits. This page gathers Drew Barrymore fashion photos, blogs and news. The Female Fashion Celebrities D directory pairs her with Demi Moore — the letter's only other full profile — two careers that each survived an early, difficult chapter to become adult successes.

Female Fashion Celebrities Q-Z

The term glamour was originally meant to be; a spell cast over someone, particularly to change how things appeared to them. The primary modern meaning of the word relates to fascination, charisma, beauty, or attraction.  Celebrities are often referenced as glamorous.  In addition to celebs being glamorous, regular every day people, or their lifestyles, can be described as glamorous.  Although many words which end in "our" in British English are spelled with "or" in American English, "glamour" is an exception with the "u" usually being retained.  This may be due to its original being Scottish rather than French or Latin.  The alternative spelling "glamour" is sometimes used in American English, but not as frequently.  Also, Glamour in modern day is occasionally abbreviated as simply Glam.
