Drew Barrymore proves that she still has love for the paparazzi after all in these pictures that have the 32-year-old actress/executive producer/director posing for an impromptu photo shoot. And Drew's got plenty of reason to be giddy, as she is perched to make her directorial debut with a $10 million dollar budget for the film, "Whip It!"
Set to start production in Texas this summer, the film about a beauty-pageant contestant who ends up somehow competing in the arena of roller-derby. Oh, I get it--the wackiness of contrasting worlds colliding. Hilarious. I'm sorry--I really like Drew because she seems nice enough, and the movie's starring "Juno" actress Ellen Page, who is also very charming--but it all just sounds like it has the potential to be uber-hokey. And I like my hokey shit, but even I have limits.

Glad to hear another movie's coming to the Austin area for filming. And dealing with the TXRD (the non-flat track Rollerderby league here, that were on that show in A&E), I'm always game to see what goodness is bubbling up with those gals involved. They're a lively bunch. :)
