Did Drew Barrymore kick Justin Long out of her house?

This report is from Star Magazine, so of course there’s a good possibility it’s crap. But for some reason, I always believe the rumors about Drew Barrymore and Justin Long. I actually like Drew – even though I think she’s more in love with love than with any guy. I think she’s too good for Justin, and I tend to believe some of the rumors out there that he has a wandering eye (and a wandering wang, if you will). Allegedly, they’ve been having problems for a while, but they’ve continued to show up for each other the past few months. He did a guest spot for Drew’s Saturday night Live hosting gig, and he came to her Whip It premiere. But they haven’t been seen out and about in a while, so it seems people are wondering if they’re on a break or something. Star doesn’t claim they’re broken up – only that Drew told him to move back into his place:

It’s back to the bachelor pad for Justin Long! The “I’m a Mac” guy was booted from girlfriend Drew Barrymore’s four-bedroom Hollywood Hills home in early November, Star has learned.

And though the two are still dating for now, their relationship could be in danger if he doesn’t clean up. “Drew really had it with being Justin’s babysitter at home,” says a source. “And it’s not just that he made a mess, it’s his attitude. He gets mopey and is a big-time couch potato. She isn’t thrilled about seeing this side of him.”

Problems surfaced almost as soon as the pair — who first sparked in summer 2007, split a year later and reconnected last spring — began living together in August. “Drew hadn’t figured Justin to be a slob, but he started acting like a frat boy and left his stuff all over the place and never straightened up after himself,” says the source. “It drove her nuts!”

Drew, 34, finally had enough of the chaotic living situation. But she wasn’t quite ready to call it quits entirely. “She gently told Justin that things would be better between them if he moved back to his own place,” says the source. “Then it would be special when they’re together — they wouldn’t feel like an old married couple.”

The good news? Justin, 31, is trying to change his ways. “It was really the wake up call he needed,” says the source. “He knows Drew’s a great girl. He’s going to do everything he can to make her happy.”

As I said, I’ll believe it because I think Justin is really like this. Something about the guy… it’s not even that he seems like a jerk, he just doesn’t seem good enough for Drew. And Drew has pretty lousy taste in men. She likes the man-children. And it’s not cute anymore. There were even reports a few months ago that Drew was trying to make Justin into a “movie star” – and that boy is not a movie star. It’s said that his career ambivalence is one of the big factors in the growing distance in their relationship. I guess he’s just content to be The Mac Guy forever.

    I don’t know I think they are cute together, but any one is better than Tom Green…

    I know Drew is popular but she drives me bonkers. Especially in her appearances on Letterman, she comes across as the most pretentious “aren’t I cute!” person. I hate to say it, but her attitude totally reminds me of Sharon Stone, way back when she was hot and wore a Gap t-shirt to the Oscars.

    I totally agree that she seems to be in love with love rather than any one particular person. How many times has she been engaged?

    Making him into a leading-man type might be a challenge, but I thought he had flashes of “it” in “He’s Just Not That Into You.” Only flashes, though.

    I like Drew a lot, but I agree with the “in love with love” thing. She seems to like the drama and excitement, but that’s typical of a lot of people.
    He’s 31? I thought he was in his early to mid 20s. He looks younger, but acts that way too.

    I heard he was sleeping with Evan Rachel Wood, they are currently filming a movie in Georgia.

    He’s been here in Savannah recently filming Robert Redford’s “The Conspirator.” I didn’t realize that Evan Rachel Wood was in it, though, Casey. I just checked on IMDB and you are right. Anyway, a couple weeks ago my neighbor was out with some friends at a restaurant/bar and Justin Long was there alone. He approached my neighbor and ended up joining them for drinks. He mentioned he had a couple of friends coming to join him, and a little while later Drew Barrymore showed up with a couple of her friends. While I enjoyed my neighbor’s story, I was pissed he didn’t call me and invite me down to meet them, LOL! I have always liked Drew, and Justin has been making a good impression here in Savannah. He’s personable and down to earth. I think this Star story is total BS. I don’t think they are having issues.

    He’s a playah. Nothing new there. He is cute though.

  9. Mairead says:

    I think Drew is fabliss. And I like him, he might be a bit of a tramp, but he seems like good company. And I DO like them together.

    But I’m not convinced he’s good enough for her either. Hopefully he’ll cotton onto that and pull his socks up, assuming the story has some truth to it.

  10. WTF?!? says:

    They’re both unattractive, untalented idiots. He dumped her last time because she drinks too much, she kicked him out because… he really uses a PC?
    When she gets an education so she can speak without sounding like a dolt and act or direct like she has a brain in her head, I’ll be impressed. Until then, she’s just riding the last vestiges of the Old Hollywood Barrymores’ coattails.
    Please. They have enough money btw them to hire a maid to pick up after them.
    Who cares?

    i will always have respect for drew b/c everytime i hear a story about linday lohan or someone else, too much fame, too fast, drugs, booze, etc. i’m like “well if drew barrymore can get it together…so can you”
    girl went to rehab when she was what 16? while no mensa candidate she does deserve some respect.
