Actress Drew Barrymore has recently been candid about her health scare. The actress shared that she had a scare of breast cancer following an "emergency biopsy" due to a "bad mammogram."
During a recent episode of The Drew Barrymore Show, the 50-year-old actress talked about the experience with guest Tig Notaro. Notaro had a double mastectomy after receiving a diagnosis of bilateral breast cancer in 2016.
Drew shared, “This is the thing I've wanted to risk talking about on this show because — I recently had a scare.”
The actress elaborated, “I'm completely fine, but I did get a bad mammogram and I got taken into that room and then I had an emergency biopsy and I waited those 5 days.”
Earlier in the show, Drew alluded to how Notaro's most recent project, Come See Me in the Good Light, had personally impacted him.

Talking on the same, Drew shared, “I have been wanting to discuss a certain subject on this show, and I did not know how. It is a very tough one to approach. But, having seen your documentary, I feel like I might be able to start scratching the surface here because of what you guys were brave enough, bold enough and smart enough to put out into the world, which is clearly being embraced, so I think that also gives us a little more confidence.”
The documentary, which Notaro co-produced, follows renowned poet Andrea Gibson and her spouse, Megan Falley, as they deal with Gibson's terminal ovarian cancer diagnosis. The documentary will premiere on Apple TV+ on November 14.
