The actor and talk show host shared a video on Instagram saying her comments in a 'Vulture' interview about her strained relationship with her mother were taken out of context.

Drey Barrymore posted a video in which she pushed back at the tabloids that pushed a story that she wished her mother Jaid was dead.

Barrymore has a difficult relationship with her mother and shared their struggles. But tabloids took that in a sensationalist direction.


She started her video response with anger in her voice over a lifetime of tabloids commenting on her every move.

"To all you tabloids out there, you have been f**king with my life since I was thirteen years old."

The talk show host went on to say they twisted a moment of vulnerability into something she never meant.

"How dare you put those words in my mouth....Don't twist my words around."

Trump Blasted After Bizarrely Claiming That Watergate Was A 'Hoax' In Unhinged Rant

MAGA Republican President Donald Trump has a lot on his plate.

There's the GOP-created government shutdown, increasing national and international backlash over the Gestapo tactics employed by Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem's masked Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents, and dissension in the ranks of his MAGA minions over Trump's 2024 campaign promises to reveal and release all of the information Trump's Justice Department and the FBI compiled to indict and arrest Trump's longtime friend, registered sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, in 2019.

Now, Page is returning to the mythic realm as a new Ariadne in Nolan’s next epic, The Odyssey, slated for release in July 2026.

Tallulah Willis Calls Out Perez Hilton For Mocking Her Looks As Child And Nearly Driving Her To Suicide

There was a certain tone in celebrity tabloids that did not arise, but did flourish, in 2000s and 2010s internet rags. The tone was catty, invasive, and sometimes downright conspiratorial.

Much of that tone and its refinement and copycats can be traced to one blogger in particular: Perez Hilton. As society has moved on and many of his old targets have come into their own power or grown up to be adults, the blowback from all the things he said has been slow but steady.
