Cameron Diaz and Justin Timberlake issued a joint statement confirming the demise of their relationship. They said that there are “innacurate stories” about their breakup, that we’re talking too much crap about them, and that Cameron’s nose really does look better now after the operation:

“It has always been our preference not to comment on the status of our relationship, but, out of respect for the time we’ve spent together, we feel compelled to do so now, in light of recent speculation and the number of inaccurate stories that are being reported by the media. We have, in fact, ended our romantic relationship and have done so mutually and as friends, with continued love and respect for one another.” And that’s that!

Rumor has it that Justin has been getting cozy with Scarlet Johansson, and that he hired her for a cameo in a recent video in order to get to know her better. They were seen talking and flirting at the after party for his Alpha Dog movie premiere.

My favorite recent source, The National Enquirer has photos and a story of Justin’s holiday hookup, an ex-girlfriend from his hometown in Tennnessee named Veronica Finn. Finn was in the now-defunct girl group Innosense, and is now a real estate agent in Tampa, FL. Finn stayed over at Justin’s parents’ house for a few nights and was seen out with him playing indoor golf and going to a club in nearby Memphis. (I said Timberlake was from Nashville before, ans as commentors pointed out that was incorrect.)

What’s really surprising about this story is how Cameron and Justin lasted so long. They both made statements that kind of half-revealed their relationship was shaky, and Justin publically dissed Cameron on this season’s premiere of Ellen, essentially admitting he’d never marry her.
