Aw, I love Drew Barrymore. I don't think she pushes the quirky, I think she's just VERY Californian. The hippie quirkiness is just who she is. ;)

Well, while I've been to California multiple times, I don't think I really have a handle on the cultural scene. I tend to think of either really rich celebrities, surfers, valley girls, the money oriented people of Orange County, etc. I know these are all stereotypes, though.
I do know that among the people I grew up with, California was considered some kind of bohemian utopia. It was the ultimate answer to "Where did you want to live when you grow up?" Answers came with a dreamy sigh. Only the very coolest of people lived in California to us.

That's interesting, to me. Where I live, it's not utopia, lol. Well, maybe it is if you're super outdoorsy, but it's not THAT different from the rest of the country, in a lot of key ways. I live waaaaayyy up north, though, almost in Oregon. It's different, up here.
I have met plenty of people like Drew Barrymore, though. My region has its share of crunchy types, and they have that same super chill, I-want-to-run-naked-in-a-field-of-daisies attitude, lol. Maybe that's why I defend her, it doesn't seem affected, to me.

Drew Barrymore
I like her, too. And I actually think she has matured surprisingly well.

Yeah, considering all she's been through, she seems pretty grounded.
