Sabrina Carpenter’s Halloween surprise? An icon of the horror film world has been arrested.
Sabrina Carpenter welcomed a mystery guest to her Halloween show, which turned out to be Drew Barrymore in a Ghostface costume.
Drew Barrymore got emotional during the fashion segment of her talk show, opening up about how her body insecurities developed after two C-sections.
On the April 6 episode of “The Drew Barrymore Show,” the “Charlie’s Angels” actress, 51, was moved by guest Dawn Benwood’s journey to lose 75 pounds after spending most of her life being overweight and trying on tight clothes.
“I can’t escape big baggy clothes, because it’s weird to wear tight clothes,” Benwood said through tears in the pre-recorded episode. “I still look in the mirror and I know I’m a different size, but I don’t really look like that. I want to be able to go out with confidence and not worry about, ‘Do I look stupid?'”
The talk show host talked about how much Benwood’s story resonated with her, saying, “It really resonated with me. It really resonated with me.”
“I was walking down the street the other day and I had two C-sections and it was so bad that I can’t wear any type of pants forever,” Barrymore said.
“I didn’t want anyone to see me,” Barrymore said, recalling a recent day when she walked around wearing a cropped shirt and couldn’t close her jacket.
Drew Barrymore says her kids pushed her out of her comfort zone
Barrymore then interviewed Benwood’s daughter. The daughter described how unusual it was to see her mother in an elegant ivory floor-length gown and a fitted dress in warm colors after years of wearing black and baggy clothes.
She then talked about how her daughters pushed her outside of her fashion comfort zone.
“Your story reminded me of how I felt two days ago when I was walking down the street with my daughter on Sunday,” Barrymore told Benwood. “I totally get it. And I have to say, I look at you and all I see is your beautiful efforts. I know that because you told us otherwise I wouldn’t know. And you’re so attractive.”
she continued. “Listen, you know what my daughter does? She encourages me to wear different clothes, and a lot of the time it makes me feel really good…We can all find what’s right for us.”
Barrymore has previously opened up about her struggles with body image, writing in a 2020 Instagram post, “I go up and down. The roller coaster of my body is a challenging but beautiful ride.”
“I have created two children and the single most important purpose for my existence on this earth is for them! It is truly a miracle that I was able to give birth to these two girls. So no matter what aftereffects it leaves on my body, good luck!” she wrote. “That said, there were times when I would just stand in my closet and cry. I didn’t want to get dressed. I didn’t feel good. It takes me so long to look decent.”
Barrymore has two daughters, Olive Barrymore Kopelman, 13, and Frankie Barrymore Kopelman, 11, with her ex-husband Will Kopelman.
