Drew Barrymore
Drew Blyth Barrymore was born on February 22, 1975. She is an Emmy Award- and Golden Globe-nominated American actress and film producer, the youngest member of the Barrymore family of American actors. She has her own production company, Flower Films. Barrymore made her screen début in Altered States (1980); her breakout role two years later was in 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.
Impulsive marriages to bar owner Jeremy Thomas and gross-out comedian Tom Green didn’t last, but Barrymore opted to take it slow when she met Strokes drummer Fabrizio Moretti in 2003. After dating for nearly five years, the pair split in 2007, allowing Barrymore to enjoy the single life and title as PEOPLE’s Most Beautiful.
