DREW BARRYMORE - BARRYMORE + LONG COO ABOUT ROMANCE

DREW BARRYMORE and JUSTIN LONG gushed about their new romance when they joined OPRAH WINFREY for a chat on Monday (03Mar08). Live Free or Die Hard star Long sat in the audience as Barrymore was interviewed on the Oprah show, but before the chat, Winfrey made a point of commenting about Barrymore's glow. The actress blushed, looked longingly at her boyfriend and cooed, "I've found a best friend, it's the best." When asked what he loved about the actress, Long said, "She smells great... (and) she's the most compassionate person I've ever met." Twice-divorced Barrymore then added, "This relationship is great; it's healthy and it's productive and it's supportive and it's full of humour. "All our friends get along great, which is awesome because we travel together in packs. We're having an excellent time."
