“I have an infallible work ethic.” The Actress said.

To which Williams responded by saying, “I love it.”

Barrymore: “I have worked since I was 11 months old in diapers. I am tireless.”

Williams: “Wow. 11 months! I have been doing this since I was in the stroller. But dang, you got me beat girl.”
