Drew Barrymore is apologizing to television and film writers over her decision to resume production on her talk show as members of the Writers Guild of America remain on strike.
“I believe there’s nothing I can do or say in this moment to make it okay,” Barrymore said in an emotional video shared Friday. “I wanted to own a decision so that it wasn’t a PR-protected situation and I would just take full responsibility for my actions,” she said. “I know there’s just nothing I can do that will make this okay for those this is not okay with. I fully accept that.
” “It’s not who I am,” Barrymore said, appearing to get emotional. “I’ve been through so many ups and downs in my life, and this is one of them.” “I deeply apologize to writers,” she added. “I deeply apologize to unions.” Hers is not the only talk show that has remained on air or resumed production amid the ongoing writers’ and actors’ strikes. “The View,” “Tamron Hall” and “Live with Kelly and Mark,” are currently airing new episodes.
