Drew Barrymore Engaged: Actress Talks In-Laws On 'Ellen' (VIDEO)

Posted: 02/ 1/2012 6:23 pm

It seems that Drew Barrymore has won the in-law lottery.

The actress stopped by "Ellen" Wednesday to dish on her recent engagement to Will Kopelman, and she couldn't stop gushing about her future in-laws.

"He has this incredible family, I'm as in love with his family as I am with him, which is an extraordinary kind of gift. You never take that for granted," Barrymore said.

The actress revealed that she hasn't worked out the Big Day details quite yet: "I'm still totally in fantasyland, and I haven't figured it out yet," she told Ellen DeGeneres. "I'm going to, and it's going to be awesome."

According to Us Weekly, Koppelman popped the question while the couple were vacationing in Idaho over the holidays. The happy couple confirmed the news in January.

This will be Barrymore's third marriage; the actress was previously married to Jeremy Thomas and comedian Tom Green.

I think the reason why Drew is so in love with his family is because her's has been a nightmare. Probably just looking for something normal.

I like Drew Barrymore. She has transformed herself into a very nice appearing woman from her very rotten childhood. I think she is to be admired.

I have always had a rescue animal (s). To me they are the best. My mother bought a expensive cat and that was a total disaster it died a couple of mos. later, my brother bought an expesive pure bread dog and the poor little thing was very sick..did not end well at all. My rescuse animals are healthy and very well behaived animals and I love the new ones as much as the old ones.

It's your bandwidth, actually. You know the bar underneath that turns red as you watch it? Well, if you look closely at it, you'll see a dark gray bar in front of the red. That's what is called the "buffer." It loads onto your computer ahead of what you are watching, and if your bandwidth is low, the red will catch up with the dark gray, the video will stop until the buffer gets ahead of the playback again.

So here is what you do to get continuous play: Start the video, then pause it. Let the dark gray go across the bottom first, close to the end, and then you can watch the video without it it stopping. Hope this helps!

I'm so dissapointed, I have dial up and can't watch vidoes, so I thought there was a picture of a cute puppy, boy was I dupped! It's great she got engaged, but the headline says,"cute puppy".

Hahahaha! I know! I kept looking for a cute puppy, too. I think she's big into rescuing dogs. Good for Drew! Keep up the rewarding work.
