Celebrities are just like us: they go grocery shopping, they ride the subway, and yes, they are big on swiping right. Drew Barrymore is one such celeb whose online dating profile was spotted in the past, and she finally fessed up that yes, she was swiping to find Mr. Right. And wouldn’t you know it, just like the rest of us, someone ghosted her. Welcome to the club, Drew!“I got stood up,” she said Wednesday night on
Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen, “and I didn’t match with anyone!”
This we find hard to believe, she’s a Charlie’s Angel! But according to her, online dating taught her just how unsuited she is to the art of swiping.“My friends gave me this sort of bloated sense of false confidence. They were like, ‘You should try it. You will do great.’ It was a car wreck.”If you’re racing to open your Tinder, Hinge, Bumble, Match, or OKCupid to see if any celebs near you are single and ready to mingle, put the iPhone down. Drew wasn’t on just any old pedestrian dating app; oh no dahhhhling. She was using
Raya, an exclusive members-only app that only accepts about 8% of those vying to use it, and has over 100,000 applicants waiting to be let in. It’s the favourite app of
single celebs; according to Business Insider, Cara Delevigne, Channing Tatum, Amy Schumer, Ben Affleck, John Mayer, Kelly Osbourne, Joe Jonas, and Trevor Noah have all reportedly been spotted on it at some point in the past. So while Zac Efron may be a fan of Tinder (
it’s true), the rest of Hollywood is hooking up with Raya.[video_embed id='1900943']RELATED: New dating app lets you can have a first date from home[/video_embed]“I definitely had fun with it,” Drew continued. “And I’ve always wanted to go on a blind date but my life got in the way of that. So, I thought online dating may satiate that desire. Yeah no, it was a real wakeup call.”So who was this rapscallion that decided Drew Barrymore wasn’t good enough for him? Drew, who was previously linked to The Strokes drummer Fabrizio Moretti and actor Justin Long, said he wasn’t anybody famous; rather he was the owner of a restaurant. But did she see other big name Hollywood heavyweights on the app?“Oh yes I did!” she gushed, adding that she won’t name names (rats). “A lot of them! It was like looking through an Us Weekly!”Drew was previously married to Canadian comedian Tom Green, LA bar owner Jeremy Thomas, and art consultant Will Kopelman, with whom she has two daughters.[video_embed id='2042252']Before you go: Donald Trump slams Harry and Meghan[/video_embed]
