“Well, I don’t know,” Brown said, a smile slowly growing across her face. “What doyouthink? I’m channeling a little bit of you.”

“Me? Oh — Josie Grossie?” Barrymore exclaimed, then laughed.

Barrymore’s iconic character fromNever Been Kissedwore a very similar getup in the rom-com. She begins her first day as a faux high school student in a flamboyant all-white outfit, ultimately gaining the attention of others in school but also spilling chocolate milk down her white jeans.

“Josie never lookedthisgood,” Barrymore gushed.

Brown revealed she wasn’t just channeling Paltrow, she got to wear the actual Versace dress that Paltrow wore. She asked Brown, “what do you want?” and then shipped the dress to Brown overnight. And Anderson — “Pammy,” as Brown affectionately called her — was “so, so generous” and sent Brown a rack of her clothes.

Wearing the iconic pieces from “blonde bombshells of the ’90s” for her press tours is ultimately about sustainability, Brown shared, but there’s another added benefit.

“I’ve been able to not only wear their clothes, but connect with them and to be able to talk to them,” Brown said. “So it’s been a really cool experience.”
