Celebrity IOU season 5 episode 8 aired on HGTV this Monday, January 2, at 8 pm ET. In the episode, Drew Barrymore surprised her best friend and make-up artist of 20 years, Debra Ferullo, by renovating her living room, kitchen, and outer deck with the help of Drew and Jonathan Scott.Unlike some celebrities, Drew decided to hang out with the Property Brothers for several weeks and made some influential decisions about the changes being made in the house. She helped the Celebrity IOU experts demolish the kitchen cabinets and patio doors using a sledgehammer. She also used a saw to cut the deck's wire and boundary. That apart, she bought a customized stove using her connections in an Italian hardware company and was easily able to make some serious design decisions, like the railings and wires of the deck, on a video call.

They also did not like the fractured tiles and replaced them with some light hardfloor ones. They built an island with black tiles in the kitchen and replaced the shelves. The property brothers had five weeks to complete renovations and expand the outer deck.Debra loved the changes and said that it "surpassed all expectations."Celebrity IOU airs on HGTV every Monday at 9 pm ET. The show features twin brothers and renovation experts Drew and Jonathan Scott helping celebrities transform the houses of their loved ones.
