6) Drew Barrymore

Drew Barrymore grew up in the spotlight. She was in a commercial before turning one. At seven, she stole the show as Gertie in E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial (1982). Fame hit fast, and so did trouble. She struggled with addiction as a teenager, but she turned things around. In the late ’90s, she bounced back with hits like The Wedding Singer and Never Been Kissed. She followed up with Charlie’s Angels and 50 First Dates. Over the years, she’s added producer, director, and talk show host to her resume. She’s always been open about her struggles, which made people root for her even more.
