In a video shared to her Instagram account, the American actress told her fans she has finally shaved for the first time in three months, and as Drew Barrymoreshed light on the grooming routine, she encountered a hilarious bathroom mishap. This comes several weeks after Drew admitted she didn’t consider shaving a form of self-care.
In an interview, the 48-year-old had told InStyle that she and self-care are not friends, adding, “My legs aren’t shaven. I try to clip my nails down because I don’t like dirt under them.”
She further told the publication: “I try to work out three times a week with girlfriends, and I usually make it two days a week, which is something.” Three days a week is the goal. Sometimes, if I have time, I can do four days a week; there’s just no time.” In her recent video, Drew, however, claimed a blaring house alarm interrupted her shaving session, and she admitted to her fans: “I was finally shaving after three months,” wearing a towel.
She added in the hilarious clip: “You can not make this stuff up. I was so excited. I was finally shaving after three months, while also showing the cream around her underarms.
“But the house alarm is going off so,” the Scream actress continued as she let the rest of the comment drift away and shook her head in disbelief, with the horn still sounding. The video then cuts to a quieter moment, as Drew wraps the towel more tightly around her and announces, “It’s fixed.” She then moved over to show a tub full of now cold water, breaking the sad news, “Well, that bath is just over.”
The Princess Power Producer concluded, asserting: “I did get to shave though, under absolute stress, duress, and panic. But I got it done. So, joke’s on you, house alarm.”
Drew’s fans were delighted with her authenticity, with one writing: “Before I knew the issue, I just thought u were wearing a cool different outfit, but… that was just the shaving cream.” Another claimed: “It’s always that moment you take for yourself and bang total chaos.” A third wrote: “She’s so stunning, and her bathroom is so… normal?!! I was expecting some gigantic freestanding tub embossed with gold or something.”
In her interview with InStyle, Drew also stated, “Self-care for me is having my kids’ stuff organized to get out the door in the morning, lined up. That’s self-care. It doesn’t seem like it, but it is because this fucking bubble bath approach is so irritating. That doesn’t bring me self-care or joy. Having my kids’ stuff in a system, lined up, their shoes and their jackets and their backpacks, that makes me feel like I won the morning.”
