Drew Barrymore got knocked about, quite literally, while filming Whip It, injuring her leg in the bargain
Drew Barrymore got knocked about, quite literally, while filming Whip It, injuring her leg in the bargain. Both Drew and her co-star Juliette Lewis got hurt during various action scenes on the sets of the film, which incidentally is directed by Drew herself and tells the story of a beauty pageant contestant who decides to toughen up and join a roller derby league. Drew told E! Online: “We were wrestling and rolling around on the track, one of our skates and both our body weights were on my thigh. I had a bruise that was a foot long and a foot wide. My entire leg was covered. I don’t think there’s anything hotter or more fun to do than a girl fight!”
