Drew Barrymore Off Dating Apps, Opens Up About Being Single

Actress Drew Barrymore revealed in an interview to Entertainment Tonight that she is off dating apps and would prefer staying single rather than finding love online.

“I got off [dating apps]. It was fun to try though," she said.

She revealed she always wanted to go on a blind date but unfortunately it never worked out.

"I've been working out there in the public since I was young so that myth of the blind date alluded me and I always wanted to do it so that was like a dating app for me," she said adding "But then it's not blind on my side so it just, I don't know, doesn't work."

The actress, who split from husband Will Kopelman in 2016, said she was surprised none of her friends set her up on dates.

"None of my friends ever set me up! I think I have the same old friends for so long, were all in such a rhythm, we don't even think like that,” she said.

During the interview, she spoke about her friendship with actress Cameron Diaz.

"We're like more than best friends, she's my sister," she said, adding "We have much more of that kind of relationship, we're very honest with each other. We push each other. And we've had the majority of our lives spent side by side, really going through what real life is, which is an everyday high and low and we just have each other's backs."

She also spoke about the recent makeup free selfie of them together.

"I love makeup so much, but it's like we don't have the time or energy to do it all the time, so I'm really into real life," she said.

Barrymore revealed she is now spending her spare time looking after herself.

"Working mums forget to put a little bit [of time and effort] into ourselves but the tiniest little bit of concealer can make such a difference in your self-confidence. So even one minute or 30 seconds, can just sort of boost your self-esteem, and it's important to remember to take that time to do that,” she said.

Her only mission now is to prove to her two daughters she's a strong woman, she said adding "I think that it's good for little girls to see that being self-employed, self-generated, self-inspired is a really important thing. But to remember there is no I in team, you do nothing on your own and it really takes a village to accomplish anything."

Barrymore was at the Los Angeles Convention Center promoting her new beauty line, Flower Beauty.

"We have our warrior line of mascara… we have a great thing called pop fanatic coming out,[We're] about timelessness, and being inclusive, and joy and [being an] all-ages party and everyone is invited… and I think we're really about telling stories,” she said.
