Drew Barrymore: 'I'm stalking The xx'

Hollywood star Drew Barrymore has joked that she has been "stalking" indie band The xx.

The actress, who attended V Festival with Justin Long at the weekend, claimed that she scared the group with her enthusiasm for their music when she met them.

"Who am I stalking right now? OK, I'm a little bit psycho for The xx... I really stalk them," she told Absolute Radio.

"They are quite shy and I of course went overboard, as I usually do, and I think when you go overboard with shy people it doesn't always go great."

She added: "I tend to [scare people] with my enthusiasm, and it's coming from such a genuine place, but they don't know me so they don't know, they just think I'm crazy, but at least they know how much I love their music."
