Drew Barrymore apologizes for joking about the Johnny Depp-Amber Heard trial

Variety

On her daytime talk show last week, Barrymore said of the high-profile defamation trial: “It’s like one layer of crazy, it’s a seven-layer dip of insanity. I know that these are two people’s real lives and I know what it’s like to have your life put out in public. I understand all the feelings, but they are actually offering up this information that nobody had to know. This is crazy!” On Sunday, Barrymore posted a video apologizing for "making light" of the trial. “It has come to my attention that I have offended people with making light of Johnny Depp and Amber Heard and for that I just want to deeply apologize and appreciate everyone who spoke out because this can be a teachable moment for me and how I move forward and how I conduct myself," she said.
