Drew Barrymore gets touchy feely with Cate Blanchett in viral clip driving fans wild
Drew Barrymore had fans buzzing on Monday after sharing a tender moment with Cate Blanchett on The Drew Barrymore Show. The E.T. alum, 50, welcomed the Oscar-winning actress, 56, and quickly launched into a playful discussion about Cate's love of wigs in films. Cate even slipped on a brunette wig, but when she pulled it off and a few strands of her real hair fell out of place, Drew quickly jumped up to help. With a soft smile and a twinkle in her eye, Drew gently smoothed Cate's hair and said sweetly, 'Let me make sure everything is perfect. You deserve to look beautiful.' As she cupped Cate's face and slowly sat back down, the Australian actress smiled and joked, 'Oh thank you, I've been stroked by Drew.' As many viewers recalled, Drew has long made it clear she's a huge Cate Blanchett fan — even joking back in 2017 while promoting The Santa Clarita Diet that Cate would be her dream celebrity to eat if she were a zombie — so it's no wonder social media lit up with reactions to the sweet hair-fixing moment. 'Drew is soooo in love with Cate I've never related to Drew more,' one fan joked, as another posted, 'She was so loving and attentive with Cate, she had been waiting for this meeting for a long time.' Another quipped, 'I feel like I'm interrupting here.' 'The way Drew Barrymore snapped up the opportunity to caress Cate Blanchett. Respect…' someone else posted. One viewer even put a black-and-white filter on the clip, captioning it like an old-timey movie: 'I ship them idc @DrewBarrymore #cateblanchett #drewbarrymore.' Another fan wrote, 'In this instance I have no other choice but bring back Drew Barrymore saying she'd like to eat Cate Blanchett.' And someone else summed up the vibe perfectly: 'I want Drew Barrymore to look at me the way she looks at Cate Blanchett.' One more added, 'The way Drew just kept wanting to hold or touch Cate but was hesitant… it's ok baby, Cate is a touchy person too — you could've crawled in her lap and she would've loved it.' It's clear: Drew's fangirl energy is alive and well — and fans are loving every second. As many viewers recalled, Drew has long made it clear she's a huge Cate Blanchett fan — even joking back in 2017 while promoting The Santa Clarita Diet that Cate would be her dream celebrity to eat if she were a zombie — so it's no wonder social media lit up with reactions to the sweet hair-fixing moment Back in 2017, while promoting The Santa Clarita Diet — where she played a suburban mom-turned-zombie — Drew was asked which celebrity she'd most like to eat. 'Cate Blanchett because she's like the most amazing woman ever,' Drew answered at the time. She added, 'She'd be umami. That's the combination of all the perfect flavors that create that palate explosion that you just can't top.' The tender moment with Cate comes on the heels of another fan-favorite Barrymore sighting — this time during a laid-back luxury yacht getaway. Drew was recently seen enjoying the South of France with her daughters, Olive, 12, and Frankie, 11, whom she shares with her ex-husband Will Kopelman, choosing a practical black one-piece over the usual string bikinis favored by other stars. She leapt off the boat into the ocean with a friend and later dried off on deck, towel cinched at the waist. Last year, Drew opened up about body image on her show, admitting, 'This weekend, I went to the beach with my girls and I just was like: "Ugh, I'm gonna take off my shirt and then I'm gonna be in my bathing suit and I'm gonna run into the water, and my thighs are gonna go like this,"; she said, miming them rubbing together. 'I'm not vain but I'm still a woman, I'm still normal, I still have the same thoughts about my cottage cheese thighs,' she added candidly. 'So I got up and I literally pulled my swimsuit out of my butt, and I ran to that beach - literally, my body just swinging in the wind - and I thought: "I just don't care anymore,"' she said,

Kylie Jenner and Hailey Bieber's Go-to Sunnies Are Under $70 and Still in Stock
When a mega celebrity opts for an affordable brand, it signals something major to me. The Kylie Jenners and Hailey Biebers of the world, for example, have their pick of the litter, so to speak. There's no doubt their stylists' carry ample designer and luxury sunglasses to choose from, yet Jenner and Bieber—among a long list of others—continually reach for the budget-friendly brand Otra Eyewear. Kylie, in particular, has been wearing her go-to pair on heavy rotation this summer, which caught my attention, of course. She sported the same $65 pair throughout her European vacation, from attending Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez's wedding to the head-to-toe animal-print ensemble she wore on a day spent with Stormi. For me, this is proof that one really great pair can do it all. Hailey, on the other hand, has worn her Otras reliably for years. Her favorite style, the Drew, is no longer available, but don't sweat it; the brand now offers a near-identical match under a different name (the Frankie, which you can shop below). Additional A-list fans include Jennifer Lopez, Lindsay Lohan, Camila Cabello, and even Beyoncé (hold for applause). Plus, Otra is available to shop at Revolve, a retailer famous for its lightning-fast shipping. So, if you're headed on that beach vacation this weekend, your new shades are likely to arrive just in time. Below, shop the best sunglasses from Otra, including one that fits the silhouette of the season: the chunky aviator.

Bleeding HGTV makes sweeping changes in last-ditch attempt to save network amid crisis
HGTV has cancelled seven shows in a bid to cut costs and bring the network into a new era. In recent weeks, the channel has axed Farmhouse Fixer, Izzy Does It, The Flipping El Moussas, Christina on the Coast, Married to Real Estate, Battle on the Beach, and Bargain Block, which has left fans furious. According to Deadline, the bold decision to cull the seven programs was to help free up some money. The publication reports that HGTV home renovation shows can cost up to $500,000 per episode compared to real estate shows, which costs somewhere between $200,000 and $300,000, and can be produced in a shorter period. 'Home reno shows are expensive because all of the materials are jacked up and on delay, the price of wood and marble and everything else is going up so these shows don't make as much sense anymore,' one source told Deadline. On top of budget issues, a producer claimed some talent were being paid up to $100,000 an episode and were 'afraid to say no.' 'They allowed their talent to run amok,' an insider alleged. 'They gave them some form of creative control and that's harming their own shows. They were so afraid of talent they never said no and the shows aren't delivering anymore. 'They kowtowed to talent and now they're suffering the consequences.' Additionally, the publication claimed that HGTV has been struggling with ratings, as well as competition from TikTok stars and other channels. 'I don't know if it's a show thing as much of an audience thing where a lot of people are dropping cable,' another source said. 'There was a time when people would just put on HGTV when they were cleaning.' Daily Mail has contacted HGTV for comment. Despite the bloodbath, HGTV does have new programming on the way. Property Brothers Drew and Jonathan Scott are returning with a brand new show, Chasing the West, which is set to premiere on July 30. The eight-part series will see them help buyers find their dream ranch. Earlier this month, HGTV announced Queer Eye's Bobby Berk will front a new series, Junk or Jackpot, which 'follows collectors as they discover the true monetary value of their massive and unusual collections.' The show is executive produced by John Cena. My Lottery Dream and Zillow Gone Wild both returned to the network this month. My Lottery Dream, hosted by David Bromstad, sees him 'help clients purchase their fantasy homes with their newly attained fortunes.' 'No matter where these lucky buyers want to settle, David won't stop until he finds luxurious properties that deliver every feature on a lottery winner's wish list,' the synopsis teases. Meanwhile, Zillow Gone Wild follows comedian and actor Jack McBrayer as he searches the internet for the weirdest, wackiest and wildest properties on the market inspired by the exceedingly popular Instagram account that touts more than two million followers.
