The two met when the host was only fourteen-years-old, recently emancipated and working at a coffee shop, when Cameron, who was a 16-year-old model, walked in.

As if that's not enough, the 50 First Dates star revealed just how tied the two are, and why she proposed to Cameron.
The mom-of-two explained how for nearly all of their friendship, Cameron has been a dedicated activist for sustainability and climate change, constantly trying to get her best friend to be better. She recalled: "She would make me get a Prius and turn off all my lights and yell at me when I was letting the water run in the sink while brushing my teeth."

She detailed how: "When I did the pilot for the show — she didn't want to be on camera, she was in a really quiet place in her life — she did me such an insane, solid favor of coming on and helping me launch the pilot… It was the ultimate best friend showing up for you."

Drew drastically changed her habits as soon as Cameron told her, "I do," and since that vow nearly three years ago, she said: "I stopped using plastic; I started changing my household products. I thought about my carbon footprint; I got into recycling."
