Justin Long ‘still longs’ for Drew Barrymore
New York, April 17: Justin Long still yearns for his former girlfriend Drew Barrymore or so it appeared to onlookers as he showed up to support the actress at the premiere of her new movie “Grey Gardens”.
The couple, who had called it quits in July last year after being together for almost a year, had reportedly arrived without their dates and hugged each other for a long time after the screening.
“We’re just friends, but I love that he supports me, and I always support him,” the New York Daily News quoted Barrymore as saying.
“We’re actually making [another] movie together called ‘Going the Distance.’ It’s a comedy — oh my God, it’ll be the best!”, she added.
And while Long also nodded to the “good friends” question, he apparently could not stop gushing over his former lover’s talent.
A partygoer added: “Justin couldn’t stop talking about how amazing Drew is. He’s very clearly into her. Neither Drew nor Justin brought dates, and they gravitated toward one another for the entire evening.” (ANI)
