Drew Barrymore parodies 90s classics including Never Been Kissed at MTV Awards
Drew Barrymore starred in a string of parody performances for the MTV Movie Awards.
The Hollywood star made a parody of her 1999 movie, Never Been Kissed, as well as Netflix's Wednesday series, performing the 'Wednesday' dance and recent bizarre thriller, Cocaine Bear.
She dressed up in an old fashioned pink prom dress and braces to pay homage to her 90s romantic comedy, and headed off on a quest to get her first kiss.
Throughout the skit, she was thrusted into scenes from popular shows from the past year, including Jordan Peele's sci-fi horror Nope, White Lotus, where she tried to help a pleading Tanya (Jennifer Coolidge), and evil robot doll, M3GAN, from the movie of the same.

Drew released her statement via Variety, writing: "I have listened to the writers, and in order to truly respect them, I will pivot from hosting the MTV Movie & TV Awards live in solidarity with the strike.

"I thank MTV, who has truly been some of the best partners I have ever worked with," she added. "And I can’t wait to be a part of this next year, when I can truly celebrate everything that MTV has created, which is a show that allows fans to choose who the awards go to and is truly inclusive."
