This young sweetie kept me in my dreams of sisterhood since her and my bid to sorority, which I did not take. If Adam Sandler, and her were a thing, it's good they left each other, bc Adam is sort of devilish. She is too sweet!!!
Amazing how Carson spent the first couple of minutes settling her nerves and any embarrassment she felt by asking her whether she rehearsed the entry, how there are quite a few who have fallen.......complimenting her on her shoes.... quick thinking and sensitivity - class act
And what happened to her?? She doesn’t have her own business line?? And is she doing more movies?? Is she successful for being a professional singer and actress? Where’s drew Barrymore now??
I couldn’t get over how smart & so interested she was to listen to Johnny Carson as she smoothly & confidently responded to 16:11 Johnny Carson’s questions.
She's smarter than me .. and I am an adult (professional loser) .. also I have fear of speaking publicly .. can't act .. can't dance .. but, unlike her, I am extremely good at uncharming people. She's amazing!
@@cinemaparadiso5402 Good Morning, I'm going to tell you that you are not a loser! No one is. We all have different personalities, different traits and talents. Some are great actors, some great chefs, etc. Rise up and Shine! You too are great! 😊

At the tender age of 7 years, she responded boldly and marvellously to all questions flawlessly in the presence of huge crowd, who in turn responded cheerfully. Hats off. 👍
Because the farther back in time you go the more people treated children with respect and responsibility allowing them to be like this unlike today where we treat them like babies until aged 18
At seven years old, her personality was already larger than life. She was destined for great things. I remember that when it aired, I would safely say Miss Barrymore is true Hollywood Royalty.
Yeah, I'm so happy she was among one of many successful child actors to obtain success in adult life like Ron Howard, Jodie foster, not succumbing to drug/alcohol abuse.
She was absolutely charming and I've always cheered for her. To know about the very adult situations she was put in as a child is heartbreaking. She's a strong and sweet person and I'm happy she fought her way thru it and landed on her feet. You're fabulous Drew.
@@ashleyrae6393 Some kids are so young & have such personality & ability to talk & act. It's NOT because she was drinking & on crack. What you are saying is very disrespectful to a talented young kid.
She had such a fabulous attitude and personality for such a young child. Quick-witted, totally comfortable to speak her mind, personable and able to keep the conversation flowing. Insane! I couldn’t do so well as a 28 year old. She really hasn’t changed at all. Such a sparkly person. I love Drew ❤
Only Johnny Carson could have handled with such grace and humor to make it totally entertaining. He never made jokes at the desk for his own ego when talking to guests…much like hosts today when they interview. They don’t make em like Carson anymore. He was pure class.
Drew is an incredible human being. To go from this, to Hollywood party favour, to a has been, all before she completed her teens. Most people wouldn’t even try for a comeback after all that, but thankfully, she did, and she’s STILL a total sweetheart! 🤩
Back, when late night talk show hosts, were enjoyable and fun to watch. Today, they can be too political and mean spirited. Drew was adorable, interacting with Johnny. Miss those days.
She’s absolutely adorable & smart with tons of personality! Johnny was the bestttt Tonight Show host and is still enjoyable to watch all these years later.
Carson had one of the quickest minds in TV. And Drew Barrymore. Not enough can be said. She popped out of the womb being unique and extraordinary and has remained so.
It's crazy to know she was battling a drug addiction this young. She was not sober here. She didn't get sober the first time until she went to rehab at the age of NINE.
Agreed. And at the very end he reminded her to wave to the audience, and then she had the presence of mind to turn back and wave to him. Johnny was perfect with her.
Carson was always great at interviewing kids. The key was he always respected them, never played them for easy jokes, hardly ever talked over their head, which is so tempting with kids. She was obviously a special case, but he was also great at interviewing the regular kids, and adults, who had no star quality but he still brought out their best.
I’m 60 n watching this brought tears too my eyes. I’ve had 6 back surgeries in the 90s n struggled with opioid addiction for 10 years then heroin for almost 5 years n by the grace of God I’ve got 10 years clean n sober September 4th of 2024 n had no support from anybody through it all but like Drew I found my own way out of addiction. So glad for her today.
It is wonderful to see him speak to her like a person. So many people talk about kids to the adults around them instead of interacting with them one on one. This is so endearing. They are captivated by one another. 🥰
She was drunk here. It's crazy to know she was battling a drug addiction this young. She was not sober here. She didn't get sober the first time until she went to rehab at the age of NINE.

She was such a personable little girl. What must she be thinking when she sees herself, watching that today. When you normally see child actors interviewed, they seem to just be "little kids", but Drew had such a great personality at such a young age. It's no surprise that she continued her career out of childhood and further as an adult. I thoroughly enjoyed this clip.
It's sad to know that Drew was alcohol and drug addicted at such a extremely young age (she literally had to go on rehab with 9 years), plus she was getting abused by so many old men at parties and getting neglected by her own mother. Like her mom doesn't even give her a good night kiss. That's just for shadowing how she was searching for any type of affection in older men, who have totally different intentions with her. She luckily found a way out of that, she's definitely a strong woman.
@@anni1348 right the whole interview is so cringe . This is weird and people need to wake up , she is a victim. She never had a chance . Her parents sold her out to Hollywood. Nobody protected her from the evil people and things in Hollywood.
What a fantastic interview! She was well beyond her years! What talent, genuine love and kindness. Unfortunately, things took a bad turn, yet she managed to plow through those challenges and pick herself up and brush herself off. What a beautiful example of faith and believing in oneself! Today she is on the other side of the desk interviewing her guests with the compassion Johnny had for her! So proud of the woman she is today!!! ❤We love you, Drew! ❤
She was the first little kid I've ever seen that actually had something she wanted to say rather than just answer questions that had been posed to her. That is extremely rare in a kid her age.
@@janbrandonjr LOL I wasn’t sure if I was going to find you. Us “red pilled” minds just can’t take ANYTHING at face value. Im unsure 100% either way. If it’s scripted then That would mean 16minutes of perfection.
Good point, she is one of those unique and rarely seen little kids who seem to have an old soul. Kinda makes you ponder the concept of reincarnation! 😉
Carson was a class act. He did great interviews, and took this 7yr old seriously as an actress. He could have yukked it up for the crowd, but he didn't. Drew had a tough life after ET but Stephen Speilberg kept an eye on her and she grew up spending time with him and his family through the years. I saw an interview on her show with him - he surprised her for her birthday. The bond between Speilberg and Drew is father/daughter and to this day she still loves him.
@@sweetmisvixen she basically was on her own from age 8. Her mom was busy partying etc. Drew became a drug addict by the time she was 11, by herself at Hollywood parties and hanging with people much older than her. In her late teens she was in rehab and got herself figured out, but went through a lot of stuff in those 10 years. I'm proud of her for coming out stronger and whole. Many child actors don't make it
Nothing cute about giving a small child cocaine and alcohol at an awards ceremony after party when they won awards for ET the film many many stars there sat and laughed. Still think its cute. 🇬🇧👍 Oh including Stephen Spielberg.
Drew Barrymore was a darling then and Johnny Carson loved every minute of it. I loved the way he treated her with respect. That's one class apart Host.
How does a 7 year old steal the show effortlessly like that? I completely lost track of time and enjoyed every minute of it. Props to Carson for letting her shine.
I just love Drew Barrymore. It's surprisingly incredible that she still has the same mannerisms when she is live on instagram, the same charm. What an incredible woman she is. ♥️♥️
Lalu bo, aku bermain dengan kata utk memastikan kehadiranmu, Bbrp bahasa membuatku bingung, tp menarik Bo san, bodoh, bo nyok bo pak, bo lot bo cah, bo Hong bo Lang, bo na, bo bo ,, Menarik ya? Bobo ho
Johnny Carson, what a kind-hearted man. He showed so much caring for how little Drew was experiencing this moment. I can easily believe he cared more about how she was feeling throughout this interview than how it looked for the show. Kindness 🤗
@@truantray Not sure where you got the blanket title "abusive drunk". He was apparently mean spirited when drunk (like a lot of people), gave up the drink pretty early on. Beloved by all but his family, yeah a neglectful parent more than an outright abusive one. He'd come home and play the drums and detach from his family.
I saw this a long time ago. I don’t think she is anything more than true to herself. She seems to still be the sweetest, open and generous person as an adult. She hasn’t sold herself. I congratulate her spirit. Sending her admiration & respect.
Drew is a contemporary of mine so I, of course, never saw this live. However, I heard this interview mentioned over the years and I am just now watching it for the 1st time. What a fantastic interview! She was a precious precocious child and I'm glad that after all she was exposed to, she turned out so well.
Carson has a way in his interviews, especially with children, to draw people out and really "communicate" so well with them. He never talks over anyone as some will do, and he always keeps things wonderfully positive! We lost a great communicator when he passed.
This genuinely was heart warming interview where I smiled all the way through and even more when she said, “It’s about your face.” with such a cute smile
Her estrangement from her mom started early & the conversation Drew had w/ Johnny gave us insight that the emotional distance.she had w/her mom began @ a very early age. So sad that drinking & drugs became her refuge as a result of that mother / daughter relationship. Happy that Drew found herself & became a great mother to her daughters, a great actor, business woman, talk show host, etc. Her tough childhood gave her the drive & desire to prove the naysayers wrong & has succeeded on so many levels in her life. Kudos to you, Drew!
She must have been born kind and empathetic. I’m so glad she was able to get a grip on her substance abuse problem early. What a wonderful chance it gave her at a very satisfying life and career🥰
Yes. And I’d actually say the same about Drew. (Except of course, she’s still here). Never has someone been so abused by Hollywood and still prevailed and survived with a fairly level head. She’s one of a kind.
But brilliant,good timing and understanding for a child.Things to say of her own and of importance! Had a song ready for him and honesty givin without embarrassment! (Teeth)👍🏿
What an enchanting and confident little girl. Drew really was a star even at 7 years old. Its shocking to think that around this age she was partying at the infamous Studio 54, taking drugs and drinking. Its great that Drew managed to turn her life around and never look back. It's lovely to see Johnny engaging so well with Drew. He doesn't patronise or belittle her but speaks to her on a adult level. Wonderful interview
@@WonkaBizCorrect. I don't recall Johnny Carson ever being so utterly charmed by a guest. His response is authentic and tender... This is such a treasure!
I have loved her since the day she was born. And she has risen above obstacles and kept her genuine and real reactions to life that make her the girl next door. Drew is always herself, which is so authentic, compared to others who "try" to be what people want them to be. They can't hold a candle to Drew.

Precious, precious, precious Drew! At only 7 y/o, her personality, kindness & energy is pure GOLD. Her message to Steven! Her song to Johnny Carson! This 16 min appearance was NO acting or script which makes her such a shining star even until today. Now she successful with her own talk show.
I wonder how many times Drew Barrymore has seen this… She was adorable and smart then and now, truly one of my favorite actresses of all time! Specially in 50 First Dates 🥰
I think they used this to promote her own talk show where Drew interviews her 7 year old self. 50 First Dates and Blended are both great successful collabs with Adam Sandler.
I wasn't planning on watching the whole video but here I am... watching the whole video. I'm just in awe at this little girl, especially knowing everything she was dealing with!
Omg! How much do we love little Drew. She has such a wonderful and vibrant personality at such an adorable age. She is so sweet. Johnny was so good with her. Missing watching Johnny!
I was laughing to tears. She is so precious. I saw her do an interview with Howard stern about a month ago and she nailed that one with the charm she has.
Drew was so cute and adorable that it almost hurts to watch her. Extremely intelligent for her age too. When she said "Hi" and "I love you" to Steven Spielberg, it made me think of her own show when he made a surprise visit remotely and she mentioned that he was the first person that genuinely cared about her. Very sweet and very sad. It's a testament to her integrity and resilience that she overcame a troubled youth to become a stable, talented adult. For every Drew, there's 100 young girls who have their lives destroyed by a lack of caring and love.
@@parrothead7507 No, I don't think so. Johnny and her were just talking about the movie and I'm sure she was thinking about Steven Spielberg. The whole swim class topic had her a little perplexed so I doubt she was referring to that Steven.
Her candid responses at that age were so funny and wise beyond her years. She was destined to be a big thing.
To second star in mediocre Adam Sandler films yes. Just kidding but Drew is a natural and had it since a young child. True talent.
Kids were smarter back then..its just a fact.
@@3joewj Kids today have no idea how to interact with people. They're too busy on their "SMART" phones. (ironic) 😔

She was such a personable little girl. What must she be thinking when she sees herself, watching that today. When you normally see child actors interviewed, they seem to just be "little kids", but Drew had such a great personality at such a young age. It's no surprise that she continued her career out of childhood and further as an adult. I thoroughly enjoyed this clip.
I agree ,it makes everyone think they want a little girl as she was absolutely adorable ,and sugar and spice. 🥰🤗
She made you wanna watch her! And listen 👍🏿 Her delivery is amazing! Timing is spot on! She thinks b4 she talks😉
It's sad to know that Drew was alcohol and drug addicted at such a extremely young age (she literally had to go on rehab with 9 years), plus she was getting abused by so many old men at parties and getting neglected by her own mother. Like her mom doesn't even give her a good night kiss. That's just for shadowing how she was searching for any type of affection in older men, who have totally different intentions with her. She luckily found a way out of that, she's definitely a strong woman.

@@anni1348 right the whole interview is so cringe . This is weird and people need to wake up , she is a victim. She never had a chance . Her parents sold her out to Hollywood. Nobody protected her from the evil people and things in Hollywood.
What a fantastic interview! She was well beyond her years! What talent, genuine love and kindness. Unfortunately, things took a bad turn, yet she managed to plow through those challenges and pick herself up and brush herself off. What a beautiful example of faith and believing in oneself! Today she is on the other side of the desk interviewing her guests with the compassion Johnny had for her! So proud of the woman she is today!!! ❤We love you, Drew! ❤
She was the first little kid I've ever seen that actually had something she wanted to say rather than just answer questions that had been posed to her. That is extremely rare in a kid her age.
but the writers write that stuff
@@janbrandonjr LOL I wasn’t sure if I was going to find you. Us “red pilled” minds just can’t take ANYTHING at face value. Im unsure 100% either way. If it’s scripted then That would mean 16minutes of perfection.
Good point, she is one of those unique and rarely seen little kids who seem to have an old soul. Kinda makes you ponder the concept of reincarnation! 😉

Carson was a class act. He did great interviews, and took this 7yr old seriously as an actress. He could have yukked it up for the crowd, but he didn't. Drew had a tough life after ET but Stephen Speilberg kept an eye on her and she grew up spending time with him and his family through the years. I saw an interview on her show with him - he surprised her for her birthday. The bond between Speilberg and Drew is father/daughter and to this day she still loves him.
Hello there, how are you doing today
He's her Godfather
He didn't keep much of an eye on her, as she was going to clubs at age 9, and given booze and drugs.
I’m interested, you say drew had a tough time after et, what happened to her?
@@sweetmisvixen she basically was on her own from age 8. Her mom was busy partying etc. Drew became a drug addict by the time she was 11, by herself at Hollywood parties and hanging with people much older than her. In her late teens she was in rehab and got herself figured out, but went through a lot of stuff in those 10 years. I'm proud of her for coming out stronger and whole. Many child actors don't make it
This is sooooooo cute, Drew is a living doll. What a joy it is watching this interview. Grace from Canada
Nothing cute about giving a small child cocaine and alcohol at an awards ceremony after party when they won awards for ET the film many many stars there sat and laughed. Still think its cute. 🇬🇧👍 Oh including Stephen Spielberg.
@@andrewdaley3081 take care of yourself
This made me love Drew again.
@@andrewdaley3081 👍
So am I Vancouver bc
She was soooo expressive even at 7! Man i would love to have someone like her as my friend!
Drew Barrymore was a darling then and Johnny Carson loved every minute of it. I loved the way he treated her with respect. That's one class apart Host.
She always oozes so much of warmth and positivity. I was smiling the whole time.
Me too...still smiling
Drew was and still has this amazing personality. She has captivated everyone’s heart ..
Hi
💯% Adorable!
She was the most precious thing. Absolutely adore this interview. It always brings a smile to my face.
One of the most adorable things I've ever seen.
She's a sweetheart even today.
Drew is absolutely adorable, she has a great sense of humor.
🖒
Hello Mila nice comment🌷🖐️
Hi👋
How does a 7 year old steal the show effortlessly like that? I completely lost track of time and enjoyed every minute of it. Props to Carson for letting her shine.
Omg...he is so funny .and sweet ..he always brought the best out in people...they connected so wonderfully.
Johnny was so kind to her after her little slip and fall. Makes me like him even more.
He was a true charmer!!
I just love Drew Barrymore. It's surprisingly incredible that she still has the same mannerisms when she is live on instagram, the same charm. What an incredible woman she is. ♥️♥️
Yep. True class on display here.
thanks for mentioning instagram. I have to look for her there.
exactly what i was thinking.
True that

The grown up Drew still has the awkwardness and genuine smile the little Drew had. I always like her.
Drew has to be one of the cutest child actress. She’s adorable and she is cute even as an adult
Lalu bo, aku bermain dengan kata utk memastikan kehadiranmu,
Bbrp bahasa membuatku bingung, tp menarik
Bo san, bodoh, bo nyok bo pak, bo lot bo cah, bo Hong bo Lang, bo na, bo bo ,,
Menarik ya? Bobo ho
And also a brilliant actress.
Johnny Carson, what a kind-hearted man. He showed so much caring for how little Drew was experiencing this moment.
I can easily believe he cared more about how she was feeling throughout this interview than how it looked for the show.
Kindness 🤗
Kind hearted man? Johnny Carson was an abusive drunk to his family and people in show business.
@@truantray Not sure where you got the blanket title "abusive drunk". He was apparently mean spirited when drunk (like a lot of people), gave up the drink pretty early on.
Beloved by all but his family, yeah a neglectful parent more than an outright abusive one. He'd come home and play the drums and detach from his family.
Drew was as cute as a button and so entertaining. That little girl was bursting with personality. Natural born comedian.
@@truantray So are you perfect?
Tyh
Johnny was so nice and pleasant with her. OMG she's just so adorable. I'm so glad she's doing so well in life. God bless her.
I loved it when he told it was okay to take her fake teeth out. No need for those. So what if her permanent teeth hadn't come through yet?
I saw this a long time ago. I don’t think she is anything more than true to herself. She seems to still be the sweetest, open and generous person as an adult. She hasn’t sold herself. I congratulate her spirit. Sending her admiration & respect.
Hello Donna, how are you doing?
Drew is a contemporary of mine so I, of course, never saw this live. However, I heard this interview mentioned over the years and I am just now watching it for the 1st time. What a fantastic interview! She was a precious precocious child and I'm glad that after all she was exposed to, she turned out so well.
She's not just adorable, her sparkling intelligence shines from her eyes. I bet she was one of Johnny's favorite guests ever.

She is sooo smart and witty.
Carson has a way in his interviews, especially with children, to draw people out and really "communicate" so well with them. He never talks over anyone as some will do, and he always keeps things wonderfully positive! We lost a great communicator when he passed.
mmmm.mmm?.
He always treated guests with the utmost respect. He never tried to be the “ star”. Miss him big time!
That's why he was far better than David Letterman and others
He seemed kinda creepy to me but not tryna speak I’ll of the dead
Lol " hi Steven, I love you!" I wonder if Steven is alive and remembers this interview. 😂
This genuinely was heart warming interview where I smiled all the way through and even more when she said, “It’s about your face.” with such a cute smile
Same here too ❣️❣️too much cute..
Her estrangement from her mom started early & the conversation Drew had w/ Johnny gave us insight that the emotional distance.she had w/her mom began @ a very early age. So sad that drinking & drugs became her refuge as a result of that mother / daughter relationship. Happy that Drew found herself & became a great mother to her daughters, a great actor, business woman, talk show host, etc. Her tough childhood gave her the drive & desire to prove the naysayers wrong & has succeeded on so many levels in her life. Kudos to you, Drew!
Still the same adorable Drew all these years later. She has a beautiful personality
She must have been born kind and empathetic. I’m so glad she was able to get a grip on her substance abuse problem early. What a wonderful chance it gave her at a very satisfying life and career🥰
You said it oicsaywhat ! I was thinking that the whole time I watched this. 👍
This just proves that Drew Barrymore has always been such an engaging human being. Love her to bits, then and now! So enjoyed this video
Hello Belinda, how are you doing?
I love that little grin when she puts her teeth on the desk! She was, and still is, adorable.
All these years later, no one can come close to Johnny!! He was, and will probably always be, the Master of late-night TV. He is missed.
Indeed
Yes. And I’d actually say the same about Drew. (Except of course, she’s still here). Never has someone been so abused by Hollywood and still prevailed and survived with a fairly level head. She’s one of a kind.
Spanish version Chilean host Don Francisco
At 7, her sense of humor was impressively witty, dry, and tongue-in-cheek.
But brilliant,good timing and understanding for a child.Things to say of her own and of importance! Had a song ready for him and honesty givin without embarrassment! (Teeth)👍🏿
Who would have thought she turned out so bad, it's weird
@@Blueprince436 how is she bad?
@@Blueprince436 due to Epstein abuse type industry life so they say ..who ate they..?
This man is calling her a woman. She is 7, and trying to flirt. I think she was molested by an adult. This is not normal.
What an enchanting and confident little girl. Drew really was a star even at 7 years old. Its shocking to think that around this age she was partying at the infamous Studio 54, taking drugs and drinking. Its great that Drew managed to turn her life around and never look back.
It's lovely to see Johnny engaging so well with Drew. He doesn't patronise or belittle her but speaks to her on a adult level. Wonderful interview
No. Not at 7 years old. Maybe like 5 years later
@@WonkaBizCorrect. I don't recall Johnny Carson ever being so utterly charmed by a guest. His response is authentic and tender... This is such a treasure!
I have loved her since the day she was born. And she has risen above obstacles and kept her genuine and real reactions to life that make her the girl next door. Drew is always herself, which is so authentic, compared to others who "try" to be what people want them to be. They can't hold a candle to Drew.
Loved her since the day she was born. Really? More likely, her first film role unless you are daddy or a stalker.
May be they are her relative or family person !
This comment is giving me slight creep vibes
She was so adorable! Shes doing a great job with Johnny Carson, especially for a 7 year old.❤😊
When she took her little flippers out and put it on the table I melted 😂😂😂 she is just too cute haha
But first she wiped them dry on her dress.🤗
She’s still a darling even after being all grown up.
Amen 🙏 sweet like a honey 🍯❤️

This kid had our hearts from day one, and she still does.
Hello there, how are you doing today
When she pulled out her teeth😂🤣😂🤣 She's always been so sweet...She over came so much in her life...I'm so proud of Drew....She's now an amazing mama
He was so sweet to child guests.
All guests, elderly women would tell Johnny they were married. I so loved that! I so miss Johnny, a class act!
Even now, she still looks like when she was 7 years old. Her face, her expressions, the way she speaks, nothing has changed.
@Amelia Airheart so sad.
Huh? Hollywood turned her into a blood sucking hemp plant that worships Satan??? I seriously can't with UA-cam commenters🤦♀️

@Amelia Airheart pls what? lmao
Precious, precious, precious Drew! At only 7 y/o, her personality, kindness & energy is pure GOLD. Her message to Steven! Her song to Johnny Carson! This 16 min appearance was NO acting or script which makes her such a shining star even until today. Now she successful with her own talk show.
She is still now as natural, fun, sincere and charming as when she was 7. Personality didn't change ❤😅 God bless her.
Johnny was a national treasure. There was not and won’t be anyone else like him. I miss him so much!
You and me both. All (ALL) the hosts today for similar shows are pale shadows to him. I don't watch any of them.
@@cindymcb6714 So true. I've tried the others. Gave up on them. Johnny had class. Nobody is even close.
Yep me too. The late night hosts of today are pure garbage!
There's Craig Ferguson, Or was
He was amazing with drew!! Just rolled with her personality and conversation!!
She is such a sweetheart! Like an innocent angel you couldnt get enough of. What an iconic conversation
Great interview with Drew Barrymore as a kid. Her funny, charming and sweet personality that comes so natural is a winning combination.
Her eyes literally sparkle! Such a darling!
Why is this the greatest thing I've ever watched? Pure seratonin. I didn't stop smiling the entire time.
I agree with you. It was just a lovely interview - pure enjoyment.
OMG i was just thinking that!! haha. i can't stop smiling. so sweet. :)
Amazing drew is like 40something years now
So precious... brought tears to my eyes...the pure love and innocence of a child is the most precious gift .💖
I wonder how many times Drew Barrymore has seen this… She was adorable and smart then and now, truly one of my favorite actresses of all time! Specially in 50 First Dates 🥰
I think they used this to promote her own talk show where Drew interviews her 7 year old self.
50 First Dates and Blended are both great successful collabs with Adam Sandler.
@@hd591 Wow! I didn’t know this, I’m going to look for it, I would love to see that! Thank you!
@@hd591 and the wedding singer! Best one IMO 👍🏻
I've watched this interview a few times, can't get enough of it, she is such a remarkable soul! 😊💓💓💓
I wasn't planning on watching the whole video but here I am... watching the whole video. I'm just in awe at this little girl, especially knowing everything she was dealing with!
Hello there how are you doing today 💐💐💐
Seeing her at this age in this clip makes me cry She had such a tough childhood, wish I could go back in time to give her a big hug!
Me too.
I see her struggle in this interview she acts too mature for a reason
What happened to her? 💔
@@murandyrandy she wasn't acting..she went with the flow n enjoyed the interview...
what tough childhood?
Omg! How much do we love little Drew. She has such a wonderful and vibrant personality at such an adorable age. She is so sweet. Johnny was so good with her. Missing watching Johnny!
So beautiful
Awesome! What a great interview.
I love how absorbed Johnny is in this whole interview. He treat Drew right and doesn’t talk over her. He’s so sweet and very professional.
I thought it was nice when she fell and he told her adults had done that too...
I was laughing to tears. She is so precious. I saw her do an interview with Howard stern about a month ago and she nailed that one with the charm she has.
Both Johnny and Drew are endearing. I miss seeing such tender interactions on TV these days. Beautiful!!!
Drew was so cute and adorable that it almost hurts to watch her. Extremely intelligent for her age too. When she said "Hi" and "I love you" to Steven Spielberg, it made me think of her own show when he made a surprise visit remotely and she mentioned that he was the first person that genuinely cared about her. Very sweet and very sad. It's a testament to her integrity and resilience that she overcame a troubled youth to become a stable, talented adult. For every Drew, there's 100 young girls who have their lives destroyed by a lack of caring and love.
Wasn’t she saying hi to Steven in her swim class?
That was the boy ( Steven ) in her swim class .
7
@@parrothead7507 No, I don't think so. Johnny and her were just talking about the movie and I'm sure she was thinking about Steven Spielberg. The whole swim class topic had her a little perplexed so I doubt she was referring to that Steven.
also she did a ray bradbury story called the screaming woman..i think she was 10 years old at the time
