Drew Barrymore once hid in the bushes outside Lucy Liu's house in order to avoid an ex-partner

During an appearance on 'The Drew Barrymore Show', Lucy said: "I found her hiding in my bushes!

"She rang the gate and she was hiding and I came out. And then you kind of came out of the bushes with leaves in your hair and you're like, 'I don't want him to see me here!' Remember?"

Lucy recalled being shocked to find the movie star hiding in her bushes.

The actress - who also starred alongside Drew in 'Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle' in 2002 - said: "I was like, 'What are you doing? Get in the house!'"

Neither Drew nor Lucy revealed when the incident took place, or even who the actress was dating at the time.

Meanwhile, Drew previously admitted that she prefers to find love the "old-fashioned way".

The actress - who was previously married to Jeremy Thomas, Tom Green and Will Kopelman - has tried using dating apps in the past, but she insisted that she prefers talking to people "in real life".

Drew - who has Olive, 12, and Frankie, ten, with Will - said on 'The Tonight Show': "Was it dating apps that stopped us from going up to people and asking them out? Now we don't have to worry about public rejection, we can just hide behind the app. Forget it. I'm over it. I want to talk to people in real life.

"I still want to meet someone the old-fashioned way."
