Drew Barrymore may have hit rehab before she hit puberty, but at least she’s sober and sane enough to see bad reality tv about to happen and put a stop to it. Says Liz Smith:
When Drew found out that a 23-year-old girl was about to have plastic surgery to look like her, for MTV’s loathsome “I Want a Famous Face” show, the actress tracked down the young woman’s phone number. Drew begged her to reconsider: “You are beautiful just as you are, as yourself.”
Life & Style magazine reports that Drew was so convincing, so earnest in her plea to save this girl from unnecessary surgery, that the potential patient relented and cancelled her Drew-like transformation.
Whew. Now if we could just put the kibosh on a few more of these shows….
Oh, sure, the old “You’re beautiful just as you are” shtick. Personally, I believe the sad truth is that Drew Barrymore is a selfish, selfish girl and wants to keep her looks and her success all to herself. Well, just you wait, Ms. Barrymore! Once I get my Drewface, there’ll be one more actor/producer/director/starlet to contend with!
Wow that was really classy of Drew Barrymore
I saw this show when a girl wanted a famous face like Carmen Elektra. The girl was already unbelievably beautiful so she must have had some emotional problems to want to change her appearance.
