    Drew Barrymore was left "sick to her stomach" when she dated a man who napped excessively

    The 48-year-old star - who has Olive, 11, and nine-year-old Frankie with ex-husband Will Kopelman - did not specify which of her previous boyfriends annoyed her with his habit of going to bed during the day but shared her "very strong opinion" on the subject


    Speaking on her self-titled chat show, she said:" I've said that I have a very strong opinion about them. I just - I had a relationship with a guy who just napped all the time. It made me sick to my stomach.

    "Yeah, it just always - he was so tired all the time and had to nap all the time. It's really about him."

    Drew was being joined on her show by businesswoman Martha Stewart, 82, who asked her if she would "date a man who didn't work and naps all the time", but the TV host reminded her that she didn't say she was thinking about a man who was unemployed specifically.

    She said: "Did I say that out loud?

    Meanwhile, Martha admitted that she was partial to a having a "cat nap in the car" whenever she needs one.

    The 'Never Been Kissed' star previously addressed the notion of regular napping on her talk show, where she labeled the habit the most "unsexy" thing a person could do.

    She said: "If you want, like, the unsexiest thing, take a nap. I'm thinking 'that's unproductive daytime craziness. I think it's bananas.

    "I've never been able to nap in my life. Why do I feel this way, you guys? Why do I find napping so unsexy and unappealing. I must have dated a napper in a last lifetime and I'm still resentful or something."
