Wow the last time I saw Selma Blair she was struggling to walk and talk and it was so heartbreaking 💔- and now she’s able to express herself and she’s so animated. I love her vulnerability, she’s a beautiful soul.
Yeah she was just on dancing on the stars press / promotion and she was struggling to talk but here she stutters nothing at all… im a huge fan and now this makes me wonder lots…..
I have the same disease as Selma. One day I'm not so bad, the next day I'm bed ridden and barely coherent. MS is a very unpredictable disease and we struggle far greater than we can describe or show.
She said in multiple interviews that when she is stressed or anxious it gets bad. But when she's comfortable and relaxed she is able to communicate just fine. She still needs a can to walk but she is fine communicating:)
@@rydbthatsme Britney was fat shamed her whole life. Her worth was reduced to how skinny she was during her entire conservatorship - she was told she was fat all the time by her father. The post you're referring to wasn't fat shaming anyone, she was making a point about how she was made to feel during that time. She even clarified what she meant to people who missed her point.
I would really like to see Drew interview Brendan Fraser in a raw & real moment like this. His story is probably SO big, and filled with so much hurt and pain. I think a lot of people would relate to him, and she will relate to him, and maybe give him the opportunity in a space where he feels heard & understood by someone who has grown up in the industry. I can't wait for the Fraser-rection ❤❤
I'm so there for that! He seems like such a warm and generous person who is trying to crawl out of the isolated pain he was in. No one deserves for that to happen to them. I think if anyone can get Brendan Fraser to feel safe to talk about whatever he wants to say, Drew could. She has that positive and friendly energy about her.
I'm here for it! Brenden was one of my favourite actors growing up. He has so much charisma and charm but is also so humble and kind. He has been through so much and I would love for him to share with us his truth ❤️
No publicly casted interview is a safe space. It’s even more damaging if people open up and let their guard down and yet it’s made available to anyone who wants to watch and judge and be all toxic about your vulnerability.
My mother never shared an anecdote from her life. Not once, after I've told her about something happening in my life, has she responded by telling me a story from her life that illustrates her understanding, perspective, or empathy for what I told her. It's truly bizarre.
People forget that in the 80s and 90s, rape could be a death sentence. As a Gen Xer I totally remember this. My mother received a blood transfusion with my youngest brother's birth in 1990, and I remember when she got a letter from the hospital the next year telling her the batch of blood might have been tainted. She was okay but AIDS was really terrifying.
I love how Drew gives sufficient time for the person to tell their story. I cannot watch one talk show host because she just interjects too much and I want to scream, "Please, just let them talk for some time before you talk!"
This is so raw, uplifting and profound. As a middle-aged women this is very grounding to see these women admit and overcome struggles and willing to share this. Very powerful and greatly appreciative to hear this.
Selma Blair is truly trailblazing being able to transform and grow thru adversity and sharing her story. We all have our challenges but we need to share them as humans 💜💜💜
It’s breaks my heart that adults & parents can hurt and destruct young people. I love Selma Blair as young girl I loved the way she dressed. Drew is the friend everyone needs 💕
Truly. And then a lot of them will say “you didn’t come with an instruction manual.” rather than just say “I’m sorry, what can I do to alleviate the pain I’ve caused?”
Poison pen letter is a very profound and vivid way of describing the nature and brutality of what those letters were like. Selma is a very inspirational and strong woman.
I have never said this to anyone, I was drugged and my 'friends' blamed me and got angry because I put them out apparently and everything I said apparently I was lying about. Toxicity is evil. Never let anyone trespass against you.
When your closest friends or family turn on you for being abused it's almost like the whole world is caving in I believe you and I'm here for you because we share the same pain. I hope you're healing well sis
I feel Selma Blair to be such an inspirational human being! My middle daughter was diagnosed with MS 5 years ago at the age of 25 and it has been a journey. Selma has been a huge part of that journey for all of us. The moment Mean Baby came out it was in Carlys hands. We love her and Drew❤️❤️❤️
This is my favorite interview of Drew’s. The more serious interviews is where she shines as a host and where she makes the most impact on people (the people she interviews and viewers). She makes people feel seen and safe to be vulnerable
Drew, what you're doing is so important - giving people an honest and accepting place to be truthful and heal from their pain. Celebrities like you and Selma should be uplifted and praised, not the fake, greedy people our world so often worships. Thank you for bringing hope and love to your viewers
Selma is starting to sound real good and is looking healthier each day. I cannot imagine what she had to go through during her battle with MS. I pray that we continue to make strides in finding a cure for not only MS but for all illnesses.
I have been a fan of Drew Barrymore pretty much my entire life… Seeing how she interviews people with so much compassion and eagerness to understand them just makes me love her even more.
I love Selma. I have Multiple sclerosis as well and seeing her journey has been so inspirational. Her videos on Instagram about her makeup and everyday life has truly helped me find peace and be able to make it thru the day.
My husband suffers from MS. I know she has access to certain treatments because of her status. But it gives me hope seeing that she is thriving. Would love for my husband to get around without his drop foot and have better balance. Many prayers for her continued progression towards being better.
Two amazing, talented people showing us what being vulnerable and living with truth can be like. It’s what makes us human and connected. Thank you Drew Barrymore and Selma Blair! 💕
I love these more intimate interviews between Drew and her guests. No audience. Just rawness and realness. They seem to dig deeper and be more relatable.
It’s because of humans like these two this using their voice and experience for GOOD and to educate and teach that it’s okay to speak up, take ownership & accountability for your actions. Anything is possible!!! Just celebrated 5 years! Also just bought the book!!!! When lifelong idol collide; greatness!
I love both of these women so much. Their strength, their vulnerability, their honesty and their drive to be live authentically is so inspirational. Drew’s overwhelming love for others seems almost infectious and makes her seem like such a safe space. Every time I see her doing a stripped down interview and you can see the turmoil of emotions all over her face I just want to give her 5 year old self a big hug and protect her. She should be protected at all costs. ❤️❤️❤️
I love Selma so much. As a woman and mother, with MS, myself...I love and admire how brave and amazing she is!! She never gave in to the disease and she is truly a beacon of light to those of us in the throes of the dark hole this disease encompasses.
I love drew! She is so real and looks at her guest in their eyes and interviews like she is talking to a friend. And like she needs it just as much as they do. I love it!!
Drew, if you bring anything back please make it Santa Clarita Diet!! We love and miss that show! Also, I am soooo happy for Selma and I hope she does get to go back to acting! She is great! I love both of you! May God continue to bless you both! ❤️❤️
Selma should give a Ted Talk about whatever she's done and is doing to treat her MS because she's looking and sounding amazing. Good work...so happy for her. Inspirational lady.
I can tell from recent interviews that Drew has been seriously thinking of writing a tell all book... She's just building the courage to do it... And when she does it's going to be amazing!
11:55 “Life WILL change.” Not new advice but the way she said it made it sound different and new to me. Personally I feel like I’m never going to leave this phase of life I’m in but hearing this gave me much needed grounds for hope. What a wise and trailblazing lady.
Omg Selma has really come a long way in the last couple of years! I remember that one interview when she could barely talk ...so glad she's in remission
Wow. Bless Drew and this show. There is so much beautiful space for healing here. As if Selma hasn't been through enough. What a phenomenal woman! The Internet tells me she is 50, but I think it's broken! There is no way. She is just as stunning as she was in Cruel Intentions.
16:11 brings me so much joy ☺☺ This whole interview was so good and felt so organic, not scripted of fake. I wish these two gals so much healing and may their friendship bloom!
Selma what a woman, a woman of talent and also coming through the other end of such an illness, from when I saw her in a interview a year ago to now, what a difference, truly shows the strength she has to get there and just live her life, and yessssss LB3. She has to be in it, xxxx
Selma has been through so much in her life and then the MS, she is so beautiful, brilliant, amazing, inspirational and down to earth. God Bless her. Sending lots of love ❤️, and 🤗 to you
I am currently reading “Mean Baby” and I’m taking my time. For one, I want to absorb everything. Two, I don’t want it to end! I highly recommend this book. It’s so beautifully written. I love having a deep look into Selma’s life. She has always been a favorite of mine, and this makes my adoration for her so much stronger. I love Drew in the same way. They’re both such beautiful rays of sunshine and watching this just melts my heart. 💛💛💛
I always knew I loved Drew Barrymore but seeing her with all of her guests and the way that she engages the way a lot of time she sits with her legs crossed on the couch sometimes, or like in this video where she's leaning in and just so friendly. She's so open so friendly she is literally my most favorite famous person ever
Selma seems to be doing so well right now and managing her illness like a rockstar. She is so talented and genuinely a strong and amazing woman. I wish her nothing but the best!
I can’t stop crying watching this interview. Drew is a fantastic interviewer and gives such a safe space to her guests to be so open and raw. Loving Selma’s honesty. A really powerful and emotional interview, thank you Drew and Selma x
Wow.. Selma has made an incredible recovery and looks better than ever! She looks so energic and full of life like she's never had a problem in her life!💛
Thanks so much Selma and Drew!!! I've always identified with Drew, I obviously didn't live in the limelight like her, but I had to raise myself. My parents were great, but they both had 2-3 jobs when I was growing up. So I was a latchkey kid and spent so much of my childhood alone, taking care of my own needs, and getting into alcohol and drugs. We all deserve second chances to parent ourselves! (heart)
Oh my god! She is so much better. I watched her documentary & some clips from a year or 2 ago and back then she couldn’t even get a complete sentence out… and look at her now!!! THIS IS AN AMAZING TRANSFORMATION. I’m so proud of her and I’m so happy for her. Selma, live your best life_recovery looks gorgeous on you 😍🥰
I am blown away!! So very happy that Selma is in control of all aspects of her life. As Kinesis mentioned, the last time I saw her on any media, was the documentary. I am so very happy for her. I am also VERY happy for Drew!! Hugs to both of you!!!
Selma is so brave, raw, vulnerable and beautiful inside out. I’m so happy to see her recover and heal. It’s possible to break generational patterns of trauma. It’s not easy yet it’s possible. I will do it again. It’s a gift. ❤️😊🍀
Drew is great for healing because she’s been through it and made it out stronger and wiser. Gives guest the non judgmental freedom to vent and express themselves. To share their stories and and be relatable
I had an extremely toxic childhood, & Adulthood, I totally can relate and have so much empathy for both of you, Selma looks wonderful, I am so happy to see her looking well again. My father is gone 49 years, my mom 22 years, and my sister 19 years, My brother left the family 40 years ago and has told everyone scathing stories about me, he poisoned his own son about his siblings and parents, in his mind he is the only victim, he and my sister blamed me for getting all the attention, when I was under the care of doctors from birth to age 27. You have to develop a very strong will to live, you have to redefine your identity, related yes, defined by no, in your aloneness you build your strength, you have to put abuse behind you. Drew, and Selma you have done that, you have grown into beautiful strong, incredible women.
Drew, wow you truly have come along way. Your show is the most honest and heart warming show I have ever seen. America needs more people like you. Great to see Selma healing, bless you both.
It's great to see Selma doing so well. Remission looks good on her 🙂 I wanted to watch her documentary so badly, I didn't get passed the first few minutes before I was sobbing. I had to stop watching, it hit too close to home. 🧡 continue fighting warrior!!
I am adoring drew more than I ever thought I already could. The active role of healing not only herself but helping others to do so as well is just beautiful ❤ heart to all of us healing from things ❤
This is just more proof that we never know what is going on in someone else's life. We all put on a mask for the world to see. This is why we can't judge people without having all the information.
I love, love, love Drew & Selma. I mean, I’ve adored Drew since I was like, six years old, but I’ve been a big fan of Selma since I first saw Cruel Intentions. In recent years I’ve come to really admire her strength & courage through such adversity.
WOW! I Wasn’t expecting to see Selma like this. The last interview I saw was on GMA with her struggling to walk and talk. I am SO happy for her! She’s amazing. ❤❤❤
I've seen Drew interview lots of people but I really feel like she can relate to Salma. It's like they totally get their terrible pasts. They both have grown to become strong understanding and beautiful talented women. It's really beautiful to see this interview and to read her book!
This was a good real interview... we all go through such struggles from poor parenting. I can so relate and still struggle with not being loved by my mother and it is difficult to get beyond it.
That was my favourite one EVER!! Selma is doing so amazing in her recovery - wow! What a super strong, beautiful woman she is, and Drew of course is everyones favourite girl, shes bright and beautiful and warm and funny, just everything, shes the whole package ❤️🎁
I'm reading Viola Davis's bio and it's inspiring to me. Selmar Blair will be next on my book list. Thank you Drew for letting me know about her! We need to know about real strong women!!!
Wow the last time I saw Selma Blair she was struggling to walk and talk and it was so heartbreaking 💔- and now she’s able to express herself and she’s so animated. I love her vulnerability, she’s a beautiful soul.

Yup me too
I feel like Drew would be the perfect person to interview Britt Spears 🥺💗
Totally agree
Yes. And it needs to be just them. Prerecorded with no audience.
Britney needs to get her mind right first. She’s lost it and recently started fat shaming people publicly, she’s a liability
Been saying this!!!
@@rydbthatsme Britney was fat shamed her whole life. Her worth was reduced to how skinny she was during her entire conservatorship - she was told she was fat all the time by her father.

Her recovery is MIRACULOUS! I remember when she could barely speak and I was so heartbroken, it's like she's brand new again. Love her.
Thought the same thing. Wow 👏🏼
I know! I'm glad she has recovered.
In remission, not recovered
What exactly did she do to recover or repair herself?! She sounds and is looking amazing
@@BrooklynBaby100 what documentary?
Drew was BORN to do this. She was BORN for this. And i am so thankful for her to have this platform.
Absolutely she was!!
She's the best
I just wrote the same comment... Which furthers the proof in the pudding. I couldn't agree more.
Yes!! I completely agree.
Drew provides such a safe and loving space for her guests (and herself) to be vulnerable and heal and it's truly so beautiful to watch. ❤
I feel like this is what Ellen thought she was doing. But Drew has such a beautiful heart

@@alexramirez9589 Ellen didn't have the genuine sincerity Drew has. Drew's been in dark places herself, so she understands this.
Yes, Drew is wonderful in that way.
My heart breaks for the little girls they were, but bursts with pride for the women they've become.
Hear hear!
I love Drew and her willingness to have healing conversations.
With everyone but her mother
Very true I don't understand why her mother is a cold blooded woman I feel so broken 💔
Very telling, her revisit to LA psych facility. Drew said she was out of control & constantly defied her mom. Why'd you do it?
@@sunshineproductions4122 that may be to personal n unforgivable JA
@@brooklynbabe7896 well she must be cold blooded or a sick woman to let her roam at such a young age.
When Selma said “I don’t know a thing about my mother” I could feel the truth in that statement. It broke my heart.
Yup
I often times feel the same about my mother.
@@dawnqueenbeemarie445 ❤️❤️❤️
My mother never shared an anecdote from her life. Not once, after I've told her about something happening in my life, has she responded by telling me a story from her life that illustrates her understanding, perspective, or empathy for what I told her. It's truly bizarre.
Hollywood is so messed up.
People forget that in the 80s and 90s, rape could be a death sentence. As a Gen Xer I totally remember this. My mother received a blood transfusion with my youngest brother's birth in 1990, and I remember when she got a letter from the hospital the next year telling her the batch of blood might have been tainted. She was okay but AIDS was really terrifying.
I love how they both lean in physically towards each other. Such genuine love and admiration for each other.
I love how Drew gives sufficient time for the person to tell their story. I cannot watch one talk show host because she just interjects too much and I want to scream, "Please, just let them talk for some time before you talk!"
Same!! I just want to scream at her, for the love of God! Stop!!
Too bad, her show is much better, sorry.
Who is the talk show host? Oprah?
@@brightwithspirit Kelly I’m assuming 😭

Yep. I think so.

I’m confused. Was it her father or his partner who was doing the letters? She seems to alternate between the two.
@@jakestroll6518 it is her father's partner who wrote the letters to Drew and he chose to believe the partner over Selma Blair,
Truly. And then a lot of them will say “you didn’t come with an instruction manual.” rather than just say “I’m sorry, what can I do to alleviate the pain I’ve caused?”
@@jakestroll6518 she was about to say "my father's...." and then changed the term to "someone related to my father".
@@jakestroll6518 My take away was that it was his fathers mistress, which was why she changed her wording so it didn’t humiliate her parents marriage.

Selma is a true warrior. I feel so awful for her. She seems like such a cool person and life has given her so much pain.
It comes to all of us. If we live long enough
Love Selma Blair. Devastatingly honest. This is what courage looks like. Drew also does a fantastic job here as well. Wow.

My parents were great, but they both had 2-3 jobs when I was growing up. So I was a latchkey kid and spent so much of my childhood alone, taking care of my own needs, and getting into alcohol and drugs. We all deserve second chances to parent ourselves! (heart)
Oh my god! She is so much better. I watched her documentary & some clips from a year or 2 ago and back then she couldn’t even get a complete sentence out… and look at her now!!! THIS IS AN AMAZING TRANSFORMATION. I’m so proud of her and I’m so happy for her. Selma, live your best life_recovery looks gorgeous on you 😍🥰
I am blown away!! So very happy that Selma is in control of all aspects of her life. As Kinesis mentioned, the last time I saw her on any media, was the documentary. I am so very happy for her. I am also VERY happy for Drew!! Hugs to both of you!!!
Selma is so brave, raw, vulnerable and beautiful inside out.
I’m so happy to see her recover and heal.
It’s possible to break generational patterns of trauma. It’s not easy yet it’s possible.
I will do it again. It’s a gift. ❤️😊🍀
Selma is so articulate. She's so impressive. She's come such a long way.
This truly moved me to tears. I love both of you strong women so so so so so much. You have no idea how much of an impact this makes.
That was such a powerful and empowering interview. I can’t wait to read Selma’s book ❤️
Her book is really good
I am new to The Drew Bwrrymore Show and I can't get enough of it.
I absolutely LOVE these 2 women!! This was such a joy to watch and see this friendship take off!
Selma Blair is phenomenal and brave and inspiring. Blessings to her and her family!
I love how Drew connects with everyone on her show. 💛
I am GOBSMACKED! My two favorite people in the WORLD! THANK YOU Drew & Selma for being REAL 🥰
Drew is great for healing because she’s been through it and made it out stronger and wiser. Gives guest the non judgmental freedom to vent and express themselves. To share their stories and and be relatable
Seeing Selma getting alot better feeling so grateful.Drew keeps on showing us n educating us just simple how to be a better human beings.
I’m SO happy for Selma’s recovery. Words can’t even express. Hugs and kisses, Selma! ❤
What A beautiful conversation between these two. It's so wonderful to see these two grown and doing such amazing things. Love them both!!!❤
I had an extremely toxic childhood, & Adulthood, I totally can relate and have so much empathy for both of you, Selma looks wonderful, I am so happy to see her looking well again. My father is gone 49 years, my mom 22 years, and my sister 19 years, My brother left the family 40 years ago and has told everyone scathing stories about me, he poisoned his own son about his siblings and parents, in his mind he is the only victim, he and my sister blamed me for getting all the attention, when I was under the care of doctors from birth to age 27. You have to develop a very strong will to live, you have to redefine your identity, related yes, defined by no, in your aloneness you build your strength, you have to put abuse behind you. Drew, and Selma you have done that, you have grown into beautiful strong, incredible women.
Selma is so inspiring. I absolutely love her and applaud how strong she is. What an amazing woman ❤❤
It's great to see Selma Blair doing well. I hope and wish for her to continue to benefit from the treatments and live a long life enjoying her son.
Drew, wow you truly have come along way. Your show is the most honest and heart warming show I have ever seen. America needs more people like you. Great to see Selma healing, bless you both.
It's great to see Selma doing so well. Remission looks good on her 🙂
I wanted to watch her documentary so badly, I didn't get passed the first few minutes before I was sobbing. I had to stop watching, it hit too close to home.
🧡 continue fighting warrior!!
I am adoring drew more than I ever thought I already could. The active role of healing not only herself but helping others to do so as well is just beautiful ❤ heart to all of us healing from things ❤
This is just more proof that we never know what is going on in someone else's life. We all put on a mask for the world to see. This is why we can't judge people without having all the information.
I'm always saying that.....
Exactly. The media shows things, we see and hear things and the truth is somewhere else.
It's great to see 2 grown people having an intelligent, meaningful conversation with one another.
I love, love, love Drew & Selma. I mean, I’ve adored Drew since I was like, six years old, but I’ve been a big fan of Selma since I first saw Cruel Intentions. In recent years I’ve come to really admire her strength & courage through such adversity.
WOW! I Wasn’t expecting to see Selma like this. The last interview I saw was on GMA with her struggling to walk and talk. I am SO happy for her! She’s amazing. ❤❤❤
I've seen Drew interview lots of people but I really feel like she can relate to Salma. It's like they totally get their terrible pasts. They both have grown to become strong understanding and beautiful talented women. It's really beautiful to see this interview and to read her book!
This was a good real interview... we all go through such struggles from poor parenting. I can so relate and still struggle with not being loved by my mother and it is difficult to get beyond it.
That was my favourite one EVER!! Selma is doing so amazing in her recovery - wow! What a super strong, beautiful woman she is, and Drew of course is everyones favourite girl, shes bright and beautiful and warm and funny, just everything, shes the whole package ❤️🎁
this so absolutely incredible to see Selma doing interviews and speaking so candid and hope that she knows how amazing she is 💞
To see Selma THRIVE was so heartwarming 💖
I'm reading Viola Davis's bio and it's inspiring to me. Selmar Blair will be next on my book list. Thank you Drew for letting me know about her! We need to know about real strong women!!!
