DREW BARRYMORE, 46, announced Wednesday that she will be launching her very own lifestyle magazine called Drew in June with Bauer Media Group. The announcement was made on her talk show, “The Drew Barrymore Show,” as the mom of two told her audience that the publication will “cover some of the things we talk about here on the show and more: beauty, food, travel, inspiring stories and people, and, of course, news.” “This has been my dream since I was a pre-teenager ripping out tear sheets from every magazine imaginable,” she told fans. “I hope this little collection of pages brings you joy and provides some escape from everyday life.” Barrymore has been working on the project for more than two years, and will serve as the magazine’s editor-in-chief. Her friends Crystal Meers and Christy Doramus will serve as editorial director and editor at large, respectively. The magazine will focus on her love of shopping and beauty, she says. She already has several product lines under her belt. It will also include a section called “Dear Drew” — modeled after a segment on her talk show — where she will answer questions sent in by readers. The magazine will be issued quarterly in print, with only a landing page as its digital presence. Barrymore told fans that the tangible aspect of this is very important to her. “I’m kicking it old school because magazines have been one of the greatest influences in my life,” she said of her decision to focus on print, recalling how as a kid she would plaster her walls with cut-outs from her favorite issues. “The fact that I can look back at my 12-year-old self and tell her she’s the founder of a new magazine is such a good feeling.” The first issue of Drew is set to debut at Walmart across the United States in June.
