A lot fuzz about Cameron Diaz lately



It has been a lot about Cameron Diaz in the news lately.
First she happened to be touristing in Peru:
She wore a bag with the Maoist slogan “Serve the People” while sightseeing in Peru, not realizing the painful memories it would invoke.

The famous political slogan was by Chinese Communist leader Mao Zedong and “has particular relevance in Peru where the Maoist Shining Path insurgency almost brought Peru to edge of chaos in the 1980s and early 1990s.”

In a statement e-mailed to The Associated Press Cameron said she’s sorry for the slogan’s “potentially hurtful nature” and wishes Peruvians “for their continued healing.”
More about that in Svenska Dagbladet.


Now she is supposed to have a romance with magician Criss Angel.
Aftonbladet reports about that.
Here is more gossiping about their romance.
Cameron Diaz and magician Criss Angel were spotted together in Las Vegas last night, getting dinner at the Bellagio's Prime steakhouse and then catching a Cirque du Soleil show. A witness says:

"They were snuggling with each other and he was making her laugh. They seemed really happy."
