Cameron Diaz does not have any trust in the institution of monogamy but also doesn’t seem too worried about it.
“Everyone has been cheated on, everyone will be cheated on,” she told OK! UK. “I can’t fix that, I don’t know how, I don’t have any judgment on anybody, I don’t know how to fix the problem.” She went on, “We are human beings, we are complicated -– you cannot go through life without tallying up a few scars, you cannot go through life unscathed, it’s just what it is. It’s all meant to happen, take your lessons, figure it out, move on.”
So basically: “Love is a losing battle against your own personal emotional Ragnarok and the universe is utterly indifferent to you… but, whatever, fuck it, no judgment here.” I’ll take it! (Cameron Diaz should definitely follow up The Body Book with a nihilist dating advice manual.) [HuffPo]
J. Lo opened up about the motivation behind her recent (very man-objectifying) music video for “I Luh Ya PaPi”; she says it was meant to be “a funny, tongue-in-cheek version of… music videos [that objectify women], but still beautiful.” She went on:
“Even though the treatment was the director’s idea, when we were doing the scene where they wash the cars… the crew, the director — and he’ll admit this too — and the guys who had to do it after one take were like, “Well I think that’s enough. I think, you know, that’s cool.” I was like, “No!” Because if a girl were doing this right now, we’d be shooting it for an hour!… It’s supposed to be funny, people have to get the joke, but they also have to see what it’s like. How absurd it is to do things like that. I asked the guys, “You feel absurd right now? Yes? Good, then we’re doing it right.”
GET IT, J. LO (lots of more good stuff at the link). [ONTD]
Kate Winslet did all her own stunts for Divergent (while she was pregnant). Says Neil Burger, the film’s director, “There is a scene where she fights Shailene [Woodley, the film’s star] and she was like, you know, taking the falls and I’m like, ‘Stop, you’re pregnant.’ But she was still wanting to do it with as much action. She’s a committed actress and she’s a committed mother, too. But she is just completely there, and you kind of just have to stop her.”
As a testament to her utter bad-ass-ery, Kate Winslet later went on to give birth to a baby named BEAR. [People]
