Drew Barrymore would rather look like a “basset hound” than have Botox.

The 35-year-old star has been acting since she was 12 months old, and has literally grown up on the big screen. Despite this constant scrutiny, Drew claims she is not obsessed with her appearance, and has no plans to surgically eliminate the lines and wrinkles that have developed around her eyes and mouth.

“F**k surgery! I’m so curious as to what’s going to happen naturally that I can’t imagine wanting to alter things just yet,” she explained. “And to all those women putting botulism in their faces – we don’t know what the long-term effects are, so stop! I’d rather look like a basset hound than do that to my face!”

Drew had a “difficult” childhood, drinking alcohol and taking drugs by the time she was 10 and checking into rehab aged just 13. She has now revealed her weight also caused problems when she was younger as her classmates saw her as a “fat child” who they should beat up.

“I grew up in a family that was multifaceted, sexually oriented, and pretty much open to everything,” she told British newspaper The Daily Mail. “And because I was working, my friends were all adults.

“I had a tough time going to different schools because people knew me from films and I was the fat child who got beaten up every day. But if you can get through those times it makes you a better person.”
