LAS VEGAS – Some actors swear a lot as the cameras roll and, in most instances, those blue moments end up on the cutting-room floor. But not in the case of "Bad Teacher," in which Cameron Diaz raises profanity to the level of high art in her title role.
LAS VEGAS – Some actors swear a lot as the cameras roll and, in most instances, those blue moments end up on the cutting-room floor. But not in the case of "Bad Teacher," in which Cameron Diaz raises profanity to the level of high art in her title role.
LAS VEGAS – As big-screen teachers go, Cameron Diaz will not be joining, say, Sidney Poitier or Sandy Dennis as inspiring role models to her classroom kids.
The title of Diaz's school comedy pretty much sums up her character: "Bad Teacher."
DALLAS — Cameron Diaz and Alex Rodriquez would have made Orville Redenbacher proud at Sunday's Super Bowl in Dallas.
HOLLYWOOD, Calif. — In Knight and Day, Tom Cruise is a covert agent and Cameron Diaz is a woman caught between him and those he claims set him up. As their globetrotting adventure erupts into a maze of double-crosses, close escapes, false identities, and head-spinning romantic snafus, they come to realize that all they can count on is each other.
The action-comedy is filled with plenty of explosive stunts, which both stars managed to complete mostly on their own.
"If I could do that all day long, you don't have to pay me," Diaz says of doing her own stunts.
LOS ANGELES — Cameron Diaz is setting the record straight about rumors she's dating New York Yankees slugger Alex Rodriguez.
"No, no, no," the 37-year-old actress tells Playboy magazine for its July issue. "I've been in relationships since I was 16 years old. In the past three years I've made a conscious decision not to be in a relationship for as long as I want. I've stayed away from all the traps out there for me to just fall into something that will potentially lead me down the same road...I want to have a relationship with myself right now."
Diaz may be determined to remain single for the time being, but she's currently reminded of a former lover on a regular basis. She is currently working on the film Bad Teacher with ex-boyfriend Justin Timberlake.
"We're adults," she says. "Of course we could work together. It's been three years since we broke up. It's all done...We're friends; he's really talented and funny, and we're good at being funny together."
Diaz admits that being a celebrity actually makes staying single a bit easier.
"I never shut down any man who's willing to ask me out unless he's a total douche bag," she explains. "It takes a lot for a guy to ask out a girl like me—not because I think I'm superspecial or anything. It's just that I think men are intimidated, and it's a lot to get involved with. It's not uncomplicated."
As for the relationships she's had over the years, Diaz can look back at them and be philosophical.
"I've had really successful relationships, even though they've lasted only a certain amount of time," she says. "I'm okay with that. With some of the relationships that have drawn public interest, I feel as though I've evolved, learned and become better equipped. I don't feel I need to make it different for the outside world that's looking in and judging it."
When it comes to love, the Something About Mary star confesses she can come on strong at times.
"I'm primal on an animalistic level, kind of like, 'Bonk me over the head, throw me over your shoulder. You man, me woman,' " says Diaz, who next stars alongside Tom Cruise in Knight and Day, opening June 23. "Not everybody has the right kind of primal thing for me...I love physical contact. I have to be touching my lover, like, always. It's not optional."
In fact, when it comes to love, Diaz says she doesn't like to be constrained.
"Sexuality and love can be different things," she says. "I can be attracted to a woman sexually, but it doesn't mean I want to be in love with a woman. If I'm going to be with a woman sexually, it doesn't mean I'm a lesbian. We put these restraints and definitions on people, but it's hard to define."
