  • LOS ANGELES — Hollywood star Drew Barrymore, who turns 50 on February 22, is set to follow a family "tradition" by celebrating the milestone with a series of sleepovers.
  •  
  • Barrymore, who has Olive and Frankie with ex-husband Will Kopelman, told Us Weekly: "I’ve always spent the night with them on my birthday and their birthdays.
  •  
  • "We have a tradition, so I’m doing a night or two of sleepovers leading up, and then I’m doing a sleepover with my daughters on my 50th. But the whole theme of the 50th birthday is sleepovers. Sleepovers should never go away."
  •  
  • The “51st date” star actually feels happier and healthier than ever as she approaches her 50th birthday, reports femalefirst.co.uk.
  •  
  • The actress, who first found fame as a child, starring in the 1982 sci-fi movie 'E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial', shared: "I don’t think I’ve ever known a happiness that I feel now, and I just didn’t know I would ever get here."
  •  
  • Barrymore is also trying to strike the right balance in how she parents her children.
  •  
  • She is keen to give them some degree of freedom, but she also feels a responsibility to steer them in the right direction in life.
  •  
  • The 'Charlie's Angels' star, who was married to Will between 2012 and 2016, explained: "They are who they are, and they’re their own people.
  •  
  • "I’m not desperate to impose upon them at all who they should be, but sometimes I feel it’s my responsibility to show them how to be and that there’s just no room for not being kind to people or gracious or grateful. If I had one battle to choose, it would just be that they’re kind, good, humble, grateful people and that they feel safe."
  •  
  • Barrymore has received several awards and nominations, including a Golden Globe Award, in addition to nominations for nine Emmy Awards and a British Academy Film Award. She was named one of the 100 most influential people in the world in 2023.
