Drew Barrymore's Definition Of 'Hot' Lights Up Our Hearts

Girl on fire.

Drew Barrymore is a girl on fire in the March issue of Harper's Bazaar. Literally pictured with superimposed flames coming out of her head, Barrymore defines what "hot" means for her own life, as well as naming the hottest people currently ruling Hollywood.

“Hot is a state of mind. It’s an energy. You’re hot when you’re motivated. It means you want it and you’re going after it," Barrymore told the magazine. "Hot isn’t about being on the A-list or having a hot body. It's literally people who are on fire."

The 40-year-old actress has been "on fire" for 30-ish years, as she's been in the public eye for just as long. The Wildflower writer maintains that she isn't "hot" right now because she's always busy working on her various projects and spending time with her daughters, Olive and Frankie. But there are a few people Barrymore admires that are currently lighting up the industry.

"Like Lena Dunham is on fire. Amy Schumer. Louis C.K," Barrymore said. "I think their brands of comedy and observational life stuff are some of the coolest I’ve seen in so many years."

Currently, Barrymore is focused on a lot of cool stuff outside of her usual Hollywood realm.

"Yeah, I don’t work as often right now and probably won’t for the next few years," Barrymore told The Huffington Post in November of being a mom to two little girls.

Instead, she's occupied with her growing beauty brand and Barrymore Wines.

"I just love wine," Barrymore told HuffPost at an event in 2014. "And it was the right thing to do for me to start with a Pinot Grigio because I think that's where my wine journey as a wine drinker started -- was drinking Pinot with my girlfriends. That was pretty much the greatest way you could spend time, just girl-talking and sharing what your day was [like]."
