Drew Barrymore has hit back at tabloids for mischaracterizing comments she made about her complicated relationship with her mother.

The talk show host offered a raw take about her traumatic childhood in a profile with Vulture that came out Monday, telling the site how its hard to heal from the past while her mother, Jaid Barrymore, is still alive.

Though Drew Barrymore said in the interview that she cannot wait for the closure her mothers death will offer, she accused media outlets of taking her words out of context in an Instagram video posted later Monday.

Taking the media to task, the E.T. star said, You know what? To all you tabloids out there, you have been fucking with my life since I was 13 years old. I have never said that I wished my mother was dead. How dare you put those words in my mouth.

I have been vulnerable and tried to figure out a very difficult, painful relationship while admitting it is difficult to do so while a parent is alive, she added. And that for those of us who have to figure that out in real time, cannot wait as in they cannot wait for the time not that the parent is dead.

In the original Vulture interview, Barrymore admitted to being jealous of friends whose parents have died, saying, All their moms are gone, and my moms not. And Im like, Well, I dont have that luxury. But I cannot wait.
