How Stella Got Her Groove Back? More like, How Can We Get Drew Barrymore’s Groove Back? The actress, who has been incredibly open about her lackluster sex life on The Drew Barrymore Show may just have to explore some younger options. And thanks to a convincing audience member, we wouldn’t be surprised if Barrymore is the next lucky cradle-robber to snag a member of One Direction — since, of course, Olivia Wilde already has dibs on Harry Styles.
In honor of the ’90s rom-com starring Taye Diggs, Hulu has ordered a new reality dating series, Back in the Groove. The show will be hosted by the actor as it follows three single women in their 40s as they travel to the Dominican Republic to “find love with men half their age,” per Variety.
Barrymore, who is 47 years old, told viewers her groove is “not so groovy” and was initially put off by the idea of dating a man much younger than her. In fact, she even turned to her audience to see if anyone there would. When one brave soul clapped, the actress asked, “Why would you want to date someone half your age? And I don’t mean that judgmentally and it did sound that way but that’s not how I meant it. But why?”
The woman noted, “Because I feel younger and I need somebody who can keep up with me.”
Barrymore, who clearly didn’t need much convincing, told the lucky audience member that she just changed her mind.
“I’m young at heart, too, when I get myself off the couch. I’m a hoot,” she said. “Well you changed my attitude. I think you could hear it in my voice with quite a bit of opinion and I just backed down because you’re right. Thank you.”
