Drew Barrymore Fires Back at Tabloids That Claimed She Wished Her Mother Was Dead
Drew Barrymore said, “I have never said that I wished my mother was dead.”

Drew Barrymore is firing back at tabloids that claimed she wished her mother, Jaid Barrymore, was dead.
Drew recently interviewed Jeannette McCurdy, who published the memoir I’m Glad My Mom Died, in which she candidly talked about an abusive parental relationship.
Similarly, in an interview with Brooke Shields, they both discussed their mother’s behaviors while they managed their careers as child actors.
Drew spilled her own emotions during her interview with Vulture, published on June 5, 2023. She said, “All their moms are gone, and my mom’s not. And I’m like, Well, I don’t have that luxury. But I cannot wait. I don’t want to live in a state where I wish someone to be gone sooner than they’re meant to be so I can grow.”
However, the tabloids twisted her words and claimed Drew wished her mother was dead. Taking the matter into her own hands, she shared a video on her Instagram on June 6, 2023.
In the video, the actress clarified her comments from the recent interview with Vulture and expressed her outrage at tabloid publications’ manipulation of her words.
Additionally, Drew vehemently denied ever wishing harm upon her mother and condemned the tabloids for putting those words in her mouth.
The talk show host remarked, “I have never said that I wished my mother was dead. How dare you put those words in my mouth.”

She emphasized that throughout her vulnerable exploration of their difficult relationship, she had never expressed such sentiments.
She said, “I have been vulnerable, and tried to figure out a very difficult, painful relationship while admitting it is difficult to do while a parent is alive, and that for those of us that have to figure that out in real-time, cannot wait as in they cannot wait for the time. Not that the parent is dead.”
Drew expressed her disgust at the twisted portrayal of her words and made it clear that she would never wish ill upon anyone, as she finds such thoughts sickening.
Exploring Drew Barrymore’s tumultuous relationship with her mother
Drew’s relationship with her mother, Jaid, has been a complex and tumultuous journey, as revealed in a recent interview with Vulture.
Despite achieving emancipation from her mother and abusive father at the age of 14, Drew admitted that she still deeply cares about her mother.

The 48-year-old actress continued to support Jaid financially, but she emphasized the need for personal growth, stating, “But I have to [expletive] grow in spite of her being on this planet.”
During the interview, Drew, who gained fame as a child actress, also clarified that she doesn’t have ill will towards her mother and doesn’t wish for negativity in her life.
Despite the difficulties in their relationship, she has reached out to her mother on special occasions, such as her birthday and Mother’s Day. She is actively working on her relationship with her mother.
In the same interview, Drew also recounted instances of inappropriate behavior by her mother, such as dating her boyfriends, which have contributed to their strained relationship.
Jaid, who operated as her daughter’s manager, treated her as a friend and a client and would go to industry parties, Studio 54, and nightclubs.
As Drew recounted in her 1990 memoir, Little Girl Lost, she revealed she had her first glass of alcohol when she was 8 and started doing coke at 12.
Her mother forced her into rehab, and she was in and out of rehab. Just after 12 days in rehab, Jaid pulled her daughter out from rehab to film Far From Home, which caused a bender – a drinking spree.
After Drew got out of rehab, she lived with David Crosby and his wife and emancipated herself from her mother.

Fans first got to know Jasmine Goode on Season 21 of The Bachelor and Season 4 of Bachelor in Paradise.

It was in the real world that the reality TV star found the love she had been searching for all along with her girlfriend, Melissa Marie.

Goode and Marie have been together for the past two years, and the pair often share glimpses into their relationship via Instagram.
Recently, the 36-year-old television actress took their commitment to a whole new level by getting matching tattoos with her girlfriend, Marie.
A few weeks back, she teased fans with a peek of Marie getting a tattoo on her Instagram Story. Another Instagram Story showed the pair showing off their new tattoo while they hid the design.
However, last week, Goode finally revealed their new tattoo, showing a branch with three leaves tattooed in the same spot on their forearms, writing, “Enjoying the little things in life.”
Jasmine Goode and Melissa Marie have been dating for 2 years
Goode and Marie have been in a relationship for two years, since 2021. Their love story began after Goode’s appearance on Nick Viall’s season of The Bachelor, where she didn’t find love but ultimately found it off-screen with her girlfriend Marie.
While the details of how they first crossed paths remain unknown to the world, their love has been on full display as they’ve walked several red carpets together as a couple.
For instance, on December 9, 2021, they walked the red carpet together at Katie Welch and Jordan Kuker’s 8th Annual Winter Wonderland Toys for Tots Charity Event.
A close look at Jasmine Goode’s girlfriend Melissa Marie
Goode’s girlfriend, Marie, is a private person who prefers to stay away from the glitz and glamour of the entertainment industry.
Unlike Goode, Marie doesn’t seem to be associated with reality TV shows or fame, as indicated by her low-profile presence on Instagram.
Instead, she is an entrepreneur who has a background in athletics, having been an athlete during her college years.
More on Jasmine Goode
Although some people would consider Goode’s inclusion in the Vanderpump Rules cast to be a coincidence, she has a deeper connection to the show.
It may not be obvious, but her incorporation into the show is more natural than it seems because she presently works at SUR and has true friendships with some of the cast members.
The TV star hasn’t just appeared on-screen, but she has also contributed behind the scenes. She received two production credits in 2018—one for the TV show This Is LA and the other for the movie Socio.
Moreover, Goode was a pro dancer. She danced for the New York Jets and the Golden State Warriors. Additionally, she was also a cheerleader.
She was a cheerleader in high school and eventually became the team’s captain. She was even a member of the infamous Dallas Cowboys cheerleading team.

The actors, who had been together since 2017, finally took their relationship to the next level and finally tied the knot after being together for six years.

The pair shared the news via Instagram, writing, “It was everything that we prayed for, and more. We are officially Mr. & Mrs. Adams-Gray,” alongside several wedding pictures.
The actors who got engaged in January 2020 were surrounded by 200 guests at the castle-style mansion, Casa Loma, the perfect fit for their “ethereal royalty” wedding theme.
The Fear Street actress said, “It was a dream come true. A fairytale,” while her actor husband noted, “It was everything we prayed for, and more” to the People magazine.
Madeira wore an off-the-shoulder lace and tulle gown embellished with flowers and butterflies by Luca Sposa that she got from Liza Ray. With a custom-made matching Tania Maras veil, she completed the bridal look.
“This dress was the number one on my list from the very beginning when I saw it online and trying it on at Liza Ray in N.Y.C. just solidified my love for it,” she said to the outlet.
She flaunted a custom Tania Maras pearl choker and earrings by Karáhkwa Jewelry, an indigenous Canadian brand, and pearl-covered shoes by Charlotte Mills.
The Trinkets actress walked down the aisle to Justin Timberlake’s song ‘Pair of Wings’ played by the Soenen Sisters.
On the other hand, Adams-Gray wore a custom-made white three-piece suit from Alan David Custom Suits N.Y.C. and dress shoes by Luca Del Forte.

The guests were served a four-course dinner, which consisted of salad, ravioli, 72-hour braised short rib, and dessert.
The newlywed couple are currently busy honeymooning in Portugal before they return to their busy life. The actress shared lovely pictures of their getaway on September 24, 2023, writing, “Our first travel experience as husband and wife.”

After dating for several years, the pair got engaged in January 2020. However, it wasn’t until February 2020 that the After Everything actress announced the engagement news via Instagram.

In 2020, Madeira moved to New York City to be with Adams-Gray while he was filming Power Book II: Ghost. He took advantage of the opportunity to take their relationship further with a romantic proposal.
When the actress got to Adams-Gray’s apartment, she discovered a large cardboard box in the living room and stargazer lilies leading to it.
She opened the box and discovered Adams-Gray lurking inside, down on one knee, with a stunning ring in his hand. He proposed, and she said “yes” right away.

DJ Diplo Gets Accused of Giving a Fan STDs amid AIDS Controversy
DJ Diplo has faced multiple accusations of transmitting STDs and AIDS.

American DJ Diplo has recently come under scrutiny as he faces accusations of transmitting sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) to a fan amidst an ongoing AIDS controversy.
During a recent episode of the Let’s Get Into It Podcast, Sloan Hooks interviewed a fan who shared a shocking revelation about her experience with Diplo. The interviewee disclosed she contracted STDs from the DJ.
She explained that Diplo had consistently emphasized his rigorous STD testing regimen, comparing it to that of a star, which led her to believe he was free of infections and subsequently led them to engage in intimate activities without using contraceptives.
Later, when the host inquired how she could be sure that DJ was the one who transmitted the STDs, she explained that he was the only sexual partner with whom she had been intimate without using contraception.
The woman went on to elaborate, revealing that in the beginning, she hesitated to attribute the source of the infection to Diplo because she was apprehensive about his reactions every time she brought up the topic of STDs.
She also shared the details of how she discovered she had chlamydia. She explained that after her first intimate encounter with DJ, she developed a rash on her body and experienced discomfort. It was at that point that she decided to get tested, which led to the diagnosis of an STD.
After the shocking revelation, TheTeaTalk’s official page promptly shared a particular segment of the podcast video.
The caption accompanying the post reads, “Uh gross?! DJ #diplo is allegedly out here taking V cards and giving fans STDs #sloanhooks interviewed a not-so-lucky fan on his #letsgetintoit podcast who details her horrific experience with the famous DJ!”
Upon seeing TheTeaTalk’s post, fans and followers swiftly expressed their opinions in the comment section. One individual remarked, ”I believe her, to be honest.”
Similarly, another commenter shared, “Diplo is well-known in the industry for allegedly targeting young Black women and exerting pressure on them to engage in activities for the sake of their career, often funded by him or for financial gain.”
This is not the first time DJ has faced controversy related to sexual health. Recently, TikTok influencer Shelly Auguste accused the DJ of engaging in unprotected intimacy with multiple girls, including herself, and alleged that he might have transmitted HIV/AIDS to many of them.
Auguste detailed her experiences with Diplo in a viral video of 4 minutes and 19 seconds. She mentioned that about 1 or 2 years ago, she came across the story of a girl who had come forward about being diagnosed with AIDS.
To her dismay, she also recognized that this was the same girl to whom DJ had sent an intimate video. Auguste then speculated that the girl’s AIDS diagnosis might have been a result of her intimate involvement with DJ.
Furthermore, in an October 2020 complaint submitted to the Los Angeles Police Department, a 25-year-old woman accused Diplo of surreptitiously recording sexually explicit videos of her without her consent.

The complaint also made the serious allegation that he intentionally transmitted a sexually transmitted infection to another person.
Back then, Diplo disagreed with the accusations and posted a lengthy message in his defense. However, now he hasn’t addressed the issue of him transmitting STDs to the women.
