Today is a very special anniversary in television history. Twenty five years ago on April 12, 1995, Drew Barrymore was a guest on The Late Show with David Letterman.
It was Dave’s birthday and Drew had a special gift for him, she jumped up on his desk, did a little dance and then she flashed her tits to the somewhat shocked talk show host.
I remember watching this in my tiny little apartment in the Beacon Hotel at 75th and Broadway where I lived at the time and it’s a nice New York memory. A lot better to think about this, then what’s happening there now.
Below are five links to online articles about this boob flashing evening and then there’s the video from that night. There’s also a NSFW link to a photo of what Dave saw that fateful night. And then there’s MBIP Coming Attractions! So there!
