Cameron Diaz covers the August issue of Harper’s Bazaar. She was photographed by Carmilla Akrans. This newsstand cover isn’t too striking. It looks very 1990s Seventeen magazine. The subscriber cover (below) is a lot better. I’m not complaining, really. This is the first time in forever that Cameron hasn’t done Bazaar through the lens of Terry Richardson, so I’m breathing a sigh of relief.
Bazaar hasn’t yet released the editorial, and only a bit of the interview has leaked. Cameron has jumped on the “literally” train. Kaiser talked yesterday about how Stacy Keibler is literally going literal. Tons of celebrities are (mis)using the word these days. It’s literally hilarious. You know what turned my attention to “literally”? When Bradley Cooper said he wouldn’t date Jennifer Lawrence because “I could literally be her father.” Literally? Poor JLaw’s mom didn’t need that kind of rumor.
I’m being a bit rude at this point, so let’s get back on topic. The always outspoken Cami talked a lot on the tour for The Other Woman. At one point, she disclosed to Andy Cohen, “I have been with a lady in the bedroom.” This was after Cami made a generalization about how “all women have been attracted to another woman.” A lot of people were curious about the “lady” whom Cami slept with. Some of you guessed that it was Drew Barrymore, maybe during the Charlie’s Angels days. Here’s Cami’s response to that theory:
Did she sleep with Drew? “Literally, that makes me want to vomit in my mouth. I wouldn’t even menage with her.”
[From Harper’s Bazaar]
Cameron literally wants to vom at the thought of getting with Drew. I don’t think it’s an insult at all, but Cameron’s words do sound a bit harsh. Drew will understand. She may say the same thing about Cam. Cami and Drew have been friends forever. They are super tight. We haven’t seen them together in awhile because they’re both busy. Drew’s gone earth mommy, and Cameron’s been touring and filming all her movies. They probably still touch base but don’t have time to hang much together. Cami and Drew did go on a beach vacation with Reese Witherspoon last year.
I’m including some vintag-y 2003 photos of Cameron and Drew holding hands and strolling in NYC. Plus a photo of Cameron in a frumpy Vionnet dress at last night’s NYC premiere of S*x Tape.

Wonder what Drew has to say about this?
With all due respect to this site, I read another article that expanded on the controversial shortened quote. She did go on to state something to the effect of that she considers Drew like her sister. No shade at all actually.
If I read this with someone I was great friends with, I would laugh and think, “truuuuuuuuuuue”
Even if I hadn’t seen/spoken to them in years.
If they’re friends I totally get what she’s saying: the idea of sleeping with my bff is like asking me “would you sleep with your sister/brother?” The same.
Exactly
That was what I thought, too.
Full quote: The actress explains, “That’s like saying I’m having sex with my sister. Are you crazy? I wouldn’t even ménage with her!”
Yeah, that’s how it came across to me, even before reading the full quote. One thing you can say about Cameron is that she doesn’t appear to have a mean bone in her body. I wouldn’t have imagined her saying something that would be dissing another woman, especially someone who has been her friend.
Yes, that’s the tone I took away, as well–like it would be too incestuous.
Agree.
I totally agree
Yeah this exactly.
The photos are very Bonne Bell lip balm or Gap fragrance ads.
I am ok with that. When the covers try to be too “artsy” or super high fashion it looks ridiculous or trying too hard to be different.
The cover is refreshing to me.
THIS.
also, i think cami’s first cover was seventeen mag so she a “pro” at this type of “look”.
I appreciate that they left her “crows feet” But other than that, these photos did nothing for her or me and I love me some Cami Diaz.
I guess she means it in a “Drew is like my sister, so ewww, barf” kind of way. Or a “really inappropriate to basically hook me up in your mind with the closest available female, ewwww, you prurient assholes” kind of way.
And yeah, the constant misuse of the word “literally” is….infuriating. If anyone I know does it, I basically put a little red mark next to their name in my mind: this person is a moron.
I’ll see your “literally” and raise you a “people that” for blood-pressure grammatical rage.
People WHO.
Many years ago when I lived in NYC, I stepped out of a cab in front of a movie theatre somewhere around Broadway in the 30s. I was sporting beautiful new yellow strappy sandals, and my foot landed right in a puddle of black, almost viscous water — just your usual NYC gutter slop. Horrified, I ran to the theatre bathroom and stuck my foot, sandal and all, in the sink, to wash it off, which wasn’t easy, neither the pose or the removal of the black gunk. I could imagine what it was composed of, what with seeing people spitting, peeing and
god knows what else on the streets. My sandal was never the same!
All you grammer freaks should check out weird al’s newest parody “word crimes” based on “blurred lines” there is a part about the liberal use of literally that made me think of this thread. http://www.weirdal.com/
That, and “could care less” and “loosing” instead of “losing.”
Since we’re talking peeves…I never quite get those who feel comfortable walking along New York streets with too-long pants (Cam in the last photo). What on earth kind of dirt are those hems grabbing along the way? Anywhere, that would be vomitous, but especially in a big city.
I imagine people that don’t do their own laundry are not inclined to give this matter too much of their time.
I am adding “conversate” to this discussion.
My entry above was meant to be a reply to Frida & her pant-hems-on-the-gound
comment!
Maybe she also wears those pants with heels?
Personally, I don’t understand people who wear flip flops, sandals OR high heels in NYC. The first two make your feet filthy, and the last one… well, since NYC is a walking town, I just can’t perceive how women walk for blocks in high heels. When I lived there (the 80s), no one wore any of those kinds of shoes on the street because it was important to be able to run in case someone was about to jump you!
Lol, Azurea, I was very confused!
I would like to add – nucular instead of nuclear, prostrate instead of prostate, and orientated instead of oriented.
Bella Bella, I agree about the footwear in the city! My sanndals were practically shoes, with a closed back & low heel, but they were so pretty! And easy to walk —
or run — in, as this took place in the early 80s. 😉
Add these to the list:
‘brang’ instead of brought
‘agreeance’ instead of agreement
I love that they didn’t conpletely airbrush out the crows feet etc. It looks good. I don’t know who decided wrinkles are ugly. I like them.
Yes! I’m sure they airbrushed a lot of stuff out, but I love that they left some puffiness under her eyes and some crows feet. She looks like a real person, not a waxwork!
Geez, she couldn’t have found a nicer way to say it? That makes it seem like she’s repulsed by Drew!
Platform flip-flops! Memmmmorieeeees!
Do you hold hands with your good girlfriends? I see nothing wrong with it, I’m just asking. I walk arm in arm with mine, but I don’t hold hands, except maybe for a few minutes when greeting each other after a long time away.
I don’t even hold hands with my BF, much less my GFs.
I’m an arm-linker myself.
I have held hands with my BFF and my sister. I’m a pretty affectionate person.
The only time I ever held hands with a very good female friend was when an ominously looking dark van was following us so we held hands to make them think we were lesbians. (Not sure if that would have a deterrent? But we thought so at the time.)
Anyone who has seen an interview with Cameron would know she was probably giggling when she said it.I’m shocked she didn’t barf rather than vomit.She has talked about farting in interviews.Also I believe Drew would say the same thing.Thinking about having sex with your BFF /”sister”… makes me nauseous.
They are like sisters. It’s like saying she would have sex with her sister. I got immediately what she was saying.
Edit. I see someone up higher posted the full quote and she did elaborate on the that’s like having sex with my sister.
I agree with the above posters. She probably meant, we are such good friends that I could never imagine sleeping with her, it would be weird.
if she didn’t want people to speculate she should have never raised the issue by mentioning her types of sexual partners.
she’s desperate for attention regarding her sexual life.
+1000
Why are there different covers for newsstand and subscriber? The latter is much nicer.
It was probably Gwyneth. 🙂
You are right! I just commented on that here! Apparently Cameron is “consciously uncoupling” from Gwyniee too – yay. She like Chris, is far better off without the Queen of Mean in her life!
A vacation with Reese Witherspoon Cameron and Drew? I wonder how much canibus was consumed with Reese there. I know that Cameron and Drew are big time pot heads but I am betting that Reese is just into her booze
Even though I’m a stickler for language I’ve come to accept “literally” as it’s not the first meaning to have succumbed. “Really” has much more in common with “literally” than most acknowledge, but no one complains when “really” is abused. I cringe much more when I hear the phrase “I can’t with [something]”. Is the word “cope” so hard to put in its rightful place in that sentence?
Off subject but B Cooper is LITERALLY dating someone younger then JLaw now.
Cameron was a far nicer person when she was best friends with Drew, and I am quite sure they never hooked up. Since she has been hanging with Gwyneth, Cameron has changed for the worse, and is far more attention seeking, TMI all over, etc. It’s widely discussed. It’s also very well known that Cameron is rumored to have had it with GOOP after she was so awful to Chris… and is still manipulating him and interfering in his life in a nasty manner, PLUS she believes Gwyneth contributed to Nicole Ritchie’s eating disorder coming back. Gwyneth and Cameron have/had a VERY odd relationship and widely believed to be involved sexually. But Drew though is a wonderful woman, has been through so much and evolved into a lovely Mom and person, and would be the perfect person for Cameron to be spending more time with again. So far what I’ve heard, and just my instincts I think Cameron is telling the truth about Drew totally, and there is no way she and Drew were together in a lesbian way at all! Hopefully Cameron will move on from Gwyneth as she is said to be, and become more friendly again with the lovely Drew, and go back to being her old sweet self!
going on a tangent here but the reference to Stacy Keibler literally being literal compels me to share Weird Al’s perfect take on Blurred Lines:
