Lucy Liu revealed she once caught Drew Barrymore hiding from an ex in the bushes outside her home after a breakup.
The âRed Oneâ actress recalled her âCharlieâs Angelsâ co-starâs unusual behavior while the two were discussing dating on âThe Drew Barrymore Showâ Monday.
Barrymore remembered making plans to spend the night at her girlfriendâs house amid her heartbreak, explaining that Liu had offered to buy her a drink.
âLetâs clarify for a second,â Liu interjected. âIf you donât remember, I found her hiding in my bushes!â
âShe rang the gate and she was hiding and I came out,â Liu went on, admitting she initially couldnât see her pal.
âAnd then you kind of came out of the bushes with leaves in your hair and youâre like, âI donât want him to see me here!â Remember?
âAnd I was like, âWhat are you doing? Get in the house!ââ
The pair did not elaborate on when that breakup took place, but Barrymoreâs friendship with the âKill Billâ star dates back to when they starred in the 2000 film âCharlieâs Angelsâ alongside Cameron Diaz.
In 2020, Barrymore, 49, recalled her time on the set of the McG-directed movie, telling Entertainment Tonight that she got âso closeâ with her female co-stars.
â[Weâre a] tripod and the three little bears that met and became magnets and weâre still here together,â she said.
Liu, 55, and Diaz, 52, even appeared in Barrymoreâs first talk show episode in 2020.
Barrymore, who was first married to Jeremy Thomas from 1994 to 1995, met her second ex-husband, Tom Green, while filming âCharlieâs Angels.â
They quickly tied the knot in July 2001 but separated that December.
â[We] were young and kind of idiots,â the â50 First Datesâ star later told Howard Stern, per Elle.
âI didnât know how to manage myself. Iâve always said I was a woman in the boardroom and a child in the bedroom. I could go into a studio and pitch ⊠but I didnât know how to handle things in my personal life.â
Barrymore later dated The Strokes drummer Fabrizio Moretti from 2002 to 2007 and actor Justin Long from 2008 to 2010.
In June 2012, she tied the knot with Will Kopelman after a year of dating. They split in 2016.
She and Kopelman share two daughters, Olive, 12, and Frankie, 10.
Last year, the mom of two announced she had been âsortâ of dating someone for about three years.
