Drew Barrymore shares rare glimpse of her messy bedroom ‘before’ and ‘after’ cleaning the space

Drew Barrymore got candid with her Instagram followers on Tuesday and uploaded a video showing a rare glimpse of her messy bedroom ‘before’ and ‘after’ she cleaned it. 

The Wedding Singer actress, who recently celebrated her 48th birthday earlier this month, could be seen filming herself using her phone camera as she gave a quick tour of her spacious bedroom that was cluttered with numerous items. 

The talk show host, who also revealed that she dyes her own hair at home, began the nearly minute-long reel with an automated voice over that stated, ‘Show me your room before and after you clean it,’ followed by, ‘I’ll go first!’ 

She began by walking through the entrance of the spacious room and walked past a tower of boxes that were placed next to a brown chair and matching ottoman while giving an exasperated look towards the camera. 

The mother of two was dressed casually to film the clip and donned a plain, blue T-shirt while her hair was parted in the middle, allowing her locks to fall down naturally past her shoulders.

A little cluttered: The Wedding Singer actress could be seen filming herself with her phone camera as she gave a quick tour of her spacious bedroom that was cluttered with items

While sporting a little to no makeup look, Drew then panned the camera towards an ornate desk that was also topped with various items in a disorganized fashion. 

Natural sunlight could be seen streaming through a window directly across from the desk that sat on a colorful rug in the far corner of the room. 

The Ever After actress then turned the camera towards her bed, and showed various boxes and items strewn along the floor.

A storage cabinet could be seen against a wall on one side of the bedroom, with the doors wide open. 

The star slowly walked over towards her bed and revealed to her 16.7 million followers that the clutter continued. 

Piles of papers, books, and possibly scripts were stacked beside the large and comfy unmade bed that also contained a few objects on the comforter. On top of the pile near the bed, an E.T. booklet could be seen. 

As she filmed the reel, music could be heard blaring loudly on a speaker in the background. 

The Golden Globe winner then brought her fans into the bathroom, where numerous amenities and toiletries could be seen on the sink. A smaller, circular mirror sat near the edge while the medicine cabinet was open and also filled to the brim.

Also on the white-tiled sink was a box of tissues, a folded magazine, a red journal, and also a cream-colored bag and a white towel. 

Drew once again sent a humorous and tired look towards the camera, daunted by the task of having to clean the entire space. 

The video then cut towards a later point in time after the star tidied up the bedroom and bathroom. She held a proud look on her face while also sporting a new ensemble that comprised of a warm, gray crew-neck sweater. 

As the E.T. actress let out a sigh of relief, she opened a door to show off a clean and organized closet with all her clothes neatly hanging up on a rack. 

The beauty then slowly walked over to reveal a clean desk that no longer had clutter and various items piled on top. Her laptop could be seen along with a notebook and a few other important office supplies. 

Barrymore gave a chef’s kiss and sauntered on the carpeted floor that no longer contained stacks of items and showed that her bed was also clutter free and made. 

The last stop of the tour was the bathroom, and the tiled sink could clearly be seen with the cabinets shut and organized inside. 

To conclude the clip, the talk show host flashed a small smile and gave an excited little dance to celebrate her accomplishment.

The actress was applauded by her fans for her ‘authenticity’ and for simply being the ‘real deal.’ 

One social media user penned in the comment section, ‘When you realize celebrities (some of them) are regular people too. I love that her bathroom looks like a normal persons bathroom and not the size of a whole apartment.’ 

Another wrote, ‘Thank you for this. Sometimes I feel like every room in the house is a mess and I’ll never catch up,’ and one added, ‘I love you for Always being authentically you!! no façades here you make it a lot easier for the rest of us to be human.’ 

Comedian Nikki Glaser also sent a shout out and typed, ‘Thanks for always being the real deal.’  

Drew, who recently became the face of Garnier Nutrisse, recently had another celebration, and rung in her 48th birthday earlier this month on February 22.  

As she nears the age of 50, the single mother of two daughters, Olive, 10, and Frankie, 8, admitted to People late last year in December that, ‘this has been the best decade of my life, without question.’ 

‘It wasn’t just the most awesome, it was the one where I feel like I’ve slayed more dragons than I ever have in my whole life.’ 

On the topic of positivity and happiness, she added, ‘As a kid and even in my 20s and 30s, happiness seemed like this very giddy, excited optimism. It is a choice. You have to work for that. It is hard to get to some days. And so when you’ve harnessed it, that feels like such a better victory.’
