Cameron Diaz wants Seth MacFarlane to be her boyfriend, he’s meh about it

I find Seth MacFarlane (creator of Family Guy, American Dad, and most recently the writer/director of Ted) physically attractive. Go ahead and yell at me. I know, I have it coming. There’s something about his sh-teating grin and his rich, smooth voice… he kind of does it for me. But I can separate my dirty, shameful, don’t-want-to-admit-it crush from my formal, public opinion of Seth: he’s really gross about women. He likes ‘em young, and he likes ‘em kind of p0rny. He’s 38 years old and a regular at the Playboy Mansion. It doesn’t seem like he ever has a “steady” girlfriend, just a string of early 20-something chicks falling all over themselves for him (like Alexis Knapp). So what happens when an A-list Hollywood star sets her sights on Seth? What happens when that star is douchebag-magnet Cameron Diaz? Yeah. Disaster.

Poor Cameron Diaz seems to be perpetually unlucky in love! This time Cameron, 39, has her sights set on making funnyman Seth MacFarlane, 38, her new beau, but he is completely noncommittal about it.

“He thinks she’s hot and is down to hang out with her, but he doesn’t want to be her boyfriend,” says an insider. “He’s a hotshot now and is having fun playing the field.”

Another factor is age – Seth reportedly tends to go for younger girls!

[From Star Magazine, print edition]

Basically, I completely believe every part of this. We know Camy has horrible taste in men, and we know she dates douchebags regularly. And I can see Seth being like, “Hey, I’ll hook up with you, sweetheart, but I’m not boyfriend material.” And Camy thinks, “Oh, I can change him! If we hang out enough, he’ll want to be my boyfriend.”

When did we start talking about Cameron like this, incidentally? It was Alex Rodriguez, right? When Camy and A-Rod became a thing, suddenly we were like, “Damn, girl. Get your sh-t together.” Anyway, I hope Camy avoids this MacFarlane trap. Go for a nice dude for once, for the love of God.

UPDATE: This curious item appears in Page Six this morning.

Cameron Diaz seems to be back in the dating game following her split with Alex Rodriguez last year. The bubbly beauty was spotted dining with a handsome man at Rao’s on Monday. A spy said, “It looked like a date,” and when fellow diners asked staff who the guy was, a waiter said, “I guess it’s her boyfriend.” Spies said Diaz’s mystery man was “handsome and athletic” and looked like “Family Guy” creator Seth MacFarlane, but sources said he and Diaz have only briefly met once in the past.

Camy, girl. Just move on! Don’t drop these “sightings” into Page Six.

    she seems to enjoy humiliating herself over men.

    • beyonce's bump says:

      that seems like a gross overstatement non? Apart from debatable Rodriguez and Justin TImberlake, who else has she “humiliated” herself over. I mean she aint no Jennifer Lopez. She just seems like a really nice cool gal who has been unlucky in love a number of times, like some if not most women. I don’t see the desperation with her. I really don’t.

      • Samigirl says:

        I agree, BB. She’s not planning her wedding before her current divorce is even finalized or anything like that *cough*J-Lo*cough

        She’s played the field her whole life. Sometimes relationships don’t work out. Her wanting to be with someone isn’t necessarily humiliating…it’s human nature.

      • Chaz says:

        you forgot Puff Daddy. I remember hearing about them grinding each other.

        And I have to say that I think that A-Rod and Timberlake are not indisputably douchey. And even if they weren’t, Cam publicly made a fool of herself when she found out he was hooking up with Biel. So yes, she embarrasses herself.

    • thyphoid mary says:

      Cameron: it didn ‘t work for JLove Hewitt, and she made a total fool out of herself…that strategy should not be even remotely considered.

  2. Lady_Luck says:

    Oh dear. She’s just one hot mess isn’t she.

  3. Scout says:

    Not that 39 is that old or anything, but seriously, her poses make her look like she is an 18 year old starlet! Some of these actresses need to learn the fine art of growing up!

  4. Birdie says:

    I find him attractive as well, happened when I watched the show “Roast of Charlie Sheen”. It happens, you are not alone. Cameron, girl, just stop. You are too old for that.

    • Jill says:

      I like him, but he has always looked like he could be the slightly geeky nephew of Christian Troy on Nip/Tuck. I think it’s the way he dresses. Not that it’s bad, but it’s pretty similiar.

      And at least he seems pretty honest with women from the beginning. There’s no chance of anything serious, and he seems to make that clear.

  5. loma says:

    Awww he’s cute. She finally picked a good one, not some jerk. Seth and Cam would be cute together but she’s so need.y

  6. Julie says:

    dont like him but he could fit in nicely in the douchebag gallery of the formers lovers.(“Gotta catch them all”) he is way more intelligent than any of them though, i’ll have to admit that.
    cameron seems to like them douchey and dumb.

  7. Ais says:

    I find him attractive too. It’s mostly the voice, but I do think he seems like a really smart guy.
    He does have terrible taste in women though. He has said before he looks for clever, nice women, but really he just wants young, trampy messes. He needs to just own that.

  8. NYC_girl says:

    I really like him, he’s smart & funny – but I don’t think he’s looking to settle down and get married. Although, when he’s not chasing tail he might be fun to be around. I enjoy watching him in interviews, even though I can only picture Brian speaking. There’s one of him on Bill Maher and he’s my twisted, cute Peter Brady.

    • Aussie girl says:

      Twisted Peter Brady! Now you have said it I can totally see it! I think he his very attractive & am Abit disappointed about the screw any thing that moves under 25 thing. Some men & their dumb sticks. Oy! As for Cam, you are getting on now & don’t want to lose your shit like Demi when you hit 50, time to grow up

    • Leah says:

      So Brian is basically Seth in cartoon form since Brian also goes for dumb trampy women (Jillian, etc.). They had him dating Lauren Conrad (from the Hill’s) and he hated it because she was smarter than him, LOL.

      I also love him, but I think it’s his voice. I just love that voice!!

      • Samigirl says:

        +1

        That voice is hot. And, he makes fun of himself in interviews and such. He really is very charming and very funny. Saw Ted last weekend, and while I didn’t think the movie was as great as soooo many of my fb friends did, the soundtrack was (for the most part) classy, and he did throw some zingers in that cracked me up (Come on, I don’t sound THAT much like Peter Griffith). 🙂

      • NYC_girl says:

        His voice is definitely hot. Brian could be Seth’s alter-ego. LOL! I wrote on a different post recently that Seth was supposed to be on one of the hijacked planes on 9/11. He got to the gate too late and they wouldn’t let him on. I think about that sometimes when I see his face and it spooks me. I would kiss him.

  9. marie says:

    I like his voice but that’s it.. And Cameron, stop it-you’re coming off as desperate and that is not a good look on anyone..

  10. Dorothy#1 says:

    Yeah, I think he’s hot too!

  11. mia girl says:

    To me, he looks like he could be the “cool one” in the Osmond brothers.

  12. Ally says:

    I don’t find him attractive but I can understand why people are drawn to him, he’s so talented. I heard a track off his big band album with Norah Jones, they sounded great.

  13. Wizza says:

    I’m probably gong to get a lot of shade for saying this but whatevs.
    I have NEVER bought the Cameron Diaz- “I never wanna be married game she states”- I feel she says it cos she thinks shes obliged to.
    She would have married Timbertwat in a heartbeat if he asked and had a very difficult time letting go. She was equally clingly with A-Rod and jumped when he asked how high (hence the boob job).
    Despite her smiles all this points to someone not free carefree and breezy but who is discontent and prob unhappy and is play acting otherwise constantly to supress it

  14. TheOriginalKitten says:

    Here we go again painting the woman as the desperate, naive hag who thinks she can “change a man”.
    *sigh*

    Cammy dates assholes precisely because she doesn’t want to commit and settle down. She is NOT Jen Aniston. If Cam wanted a husband she would have one. Not every woman is obsessed with being in a committed relationship and yes, some women just enjoy sampling the goods-why is this so hard for people to understand?

    Women need to collectively let go of that tired-ass notion that every female lives in fear of dying alone. Personally, I struggled for a long time just trying to let go of the freedom of being single (imagine THAT??? some women actually enjoy being single! *GASP*). Along the way, I burned a lot of guys and was probably selfish in a lot of ways. It took me meeting someone AMAZING and realizing that I wouldn’t find someone like him again to FINALLY settle down. So let’s stop setting back the feminist movement with archaic notions about women, pleaseandthankyou.

    • Wizza says:

      LOL Hi Kitten.
      Stuff like this always remind me of the models 90s – Sophie Dahl, 00s – Coca Rocha who always talked about how happy they were to represent the fuller figured female specimen with their high fashion contracts b4 then going on to lose tonnes of weight and then back-confessing that they were actually unhappy all that time.
      True some women deffo enjoy being single. But some also say what they thing they ought to or what their supporters wish to hear, rather than what they feel.
      I always enjoy your posts (we’re one of the few who are Team Blake lol).
      But on THIS were gonna have to disagree. Still love ya.

    • Julie says:

      i agree with wizza. i totally buy all that with charlize theron not longing for marriage but with diaz i dont buy it. her behaviour with arod and momma boy didnt look like the carefree gal that just wants to have some fun.

      • TheOriginalKitten says:

        Hey Wiz 🙂
        I guess I’m just using CD as an example (I’m kind of indifferent to her and her love life) but it happens a LOT around here, where the woman is portrayed as desperately seeking a husband. It just grates on me because it’s so antiquated and so anti-feminist.
        Actually, Blake is one of the few actresses that gets portrayed as being in charge of her sexuality, being driven, and having the “upper-hand” (for lack of a better term) in relationships.

        @Julie-I think Theron AND CD both could give sh*t about settling down. CD just seems like she has a lot of fun to me. I personally think “sampling the goods” is great because different men have different things to offer-sometimes you can’t find one guy that has it all. *shrugs*
        Guess I’m unconventional in that way.

  15. Talie says:

    No one thought she was desperate in the 90s and early 00’s because she was in long-term relationships. I always thought she should’ve ended up with Matt Dillion.

  16. lassie says:

    I think he’s suave. And totally doable, despite the orangey tone of his skin. Sometimes I think Seth hits the spray tan a little too hard.

  17. Az says:

    I like Seth too. Also, he seems to like hot messes, as he dated Amanda Bynes.

  18. HadleyB says:

    He doesn’t seem like Cams type actually … he’s not too great looking in the face, .. old looking face… and from his pics I can’t tell about his body but it’s not the type she prefers so …

    He seems too old for Cam as well honestly. lol. Based on her past boyfriends. And just .. creepy looking.. there’s something “off ” about him .. a weird vibe i get from him.

    More than your regular douche vibe …. from Justine for example. Don’t like.

  19. Sam says:

    Just occurred to me – have any of Justin Timberlake’s ex girlfriends gone on to have normal relationships? Britney had mental problems, true, but then she got together with her manager (weird power balance relationship), and Cameron seems to have fizzled. I get that she might not really want a relationship, but the guys she picks to screw around with are sooo questionable.

  20. Sirsnarksalot says:

    Seth has said publicly tht he identifies most with Brian from the Family Guy and Brian has a running problem dating hot bimbos, so I actually think this match could work. She’s at least got a career and is age appropriate even if she is as dumb as a box of rocks.

  21. birdie says:

    Did you guys know that he was supposed to be on a plane which crashed into the twin towers on 9/11? He was just a few minutes late and it was because he was hungover.

  22. Rachel says:

    i think hes smoking hot but honestly not a good match for cammie d…i like her and want her with someone who will treat her good!

  23. Christian says:

    Seth MacFarlane is a f–king hack, I can barely tolerate calling him a writer, let alone a voice actor. His work is tedious, one-note, lowest common denominator garbage that has no right to be as grossly successful as it is. Seriously, f–k this guy. Cameron can do much better.

  24. busy ramone says:

    Personally, I think he’s gay. But I could be wrong.

  25. Stacia says:

    When I look at him, I see football- headed Stewy. He’s ok-looking. I guess his personality makes up for the looks. Like his eyes sqinty for some reason.
    Her face looks tweaked here, but its an improvement than that leather face she’s been sporting(too much sun).

  26. Dredz says:

    Handsome?!! I thought he looks like a hamster!!!

  27. sandy says:

    He sort of reminds me of Peter from the Brady Bunch

  28. Dee Cee says:

    He’s like a washed out version of a Donny Osmond.. um.. she’s just plain jerking him around and acting nutz.

  29. Lee says:

    nah shes not his type…he generally likes to whore around and go for the young ones

  30. Kellie says:

    I want to date Seth! My goodness that man is YUM-ME!

  31. dj says:

    Seth is hilarious. I melt for funny guys. what is better than laughing? So sexy.

  32. dj says:

    Why are all (the few I make) my comments going into moderation now? I said baby Flynn was adorable. I said I think Seth McFarland is funny. Nothing questionable here folks.

  33. Holden says:

    Cameron Diaz is old and busted, of course he’s not committing.

  34. Gigohead says:

    Wooh wooh..What the heck am I missing. I am from NYC and I read this NY Post piece and it doesn’t SAY she was dating Seth, the waiter said she was with someone who LOOKED like Seth. I follow him on twitter and he’s been talking about comic con in San Diego all week. What gives??

  35. Beth says:

    He has made no secret that he goes for dumb, hot, young girls. He just said in an interview that he is not looking for an “intellectual equal” just a hot piece of ass at the end of the day. Like him, but he has a huge frat guy mentality. And, Seth, go easy on the spray tan.

  36. tru tru says:

    she doesn’t stand a chance–

    he would be the last guy that I would hope to change.

    I like him, but he wants to have fun.

    let it go Cam, you deserve a man that wants to commit.

  37. Jilly Bean says:

    loves him and his work!

  38. mia says:

    Eh,yuk! Nothing more disgusting than bores-boy whores.
    Maybe Cameron is looking for somebody funny and not so serious which could account for some of the tards we have seen around.

  39. Ang says:

    When I met Seth MacFarlane at an event he was really nice to my roommate and myself. Signed our Family Guy box sets, posed for pictures, gave us each a hug and did an autograph for my boyfriend who couldn’t be there. But that was before Family Guy came back on the air so maybe he changed after that 100 mil paycheck.

  40. GirlyGirl says:

    I have serious doubts that MacFarlane is the “marrying kind” if you know what I mean…

    And if you don’t know, I’m trying to say I think he might be gay.
