Justin Timberlake and Cameron Diaz are happily married to their spouses Jessica Biel and Benji Madden respectively. But the two stars were a hot and happening couple many years ago and looked to be together for the long haul. Unfortunately, their relationship did not stand the test of time owing to various challenges and problems the couple faced.
One of the main reasons and the last straw that resulted in the ultimate fracture of their union was Justin Timberlake’s very popular song What Goes Around….Comes Around. The music video which featured Marvel star Scarlett Johansson alongside the pop singer, reportedly did not go down well with Cameron Diaz.
Cameron Diaz Was Upset With Scarlett Johansson’s Involvement In The Music Video
There are many reasons, some big and some small, for a relationship between two people to end. Former couple Cameron Diaz and Justin Timberlake, who dated for 4 years between 2003 and 2007, faced various challenges that ultimately resulted in their breakup. But one of the defining reasons that the pair called it quits was allegedly due to Timberlake’s music video for his song What Goes Around….Comes Around with Marvel star Scarlett Johansson. According to sources, The Mask actor was rumored to be displeased with the Black Widow star’s casting in the song.
“Cameron was very jealous of Scarlett. She could not believe he went behind her back to put her in the video.”
However, Johansson put an end to these speculations and rumors by clearing up the air regarding her presence in Timberlake’s music video. The star said,
“We live in a world today where if two people are single – and one’s a guy and one’s a girl and they’re both famous – you’re going to be linked with somebody,”
Cameron Diaz, for her part, has never publicly spoken about the music video or Johansson’s appearance in it. But shortly after, in January 2007, the couple announced their separation after allegedly arguing at singer Prince’s Golden Globe party, in which Timberlake’s future wife Jessica Biel was also present.
The Time When Cameron Diaz Put The Paparazzi In Its Place
While Cameron Diaz may not have spoken openly about her breakup with Justin Timberlake, the star has never shied away from expressing her opinion and displeasure at being targeted unfairly. As a result, the Charlie’s Angels actor has had to face criticism from the public and the paparazzi for her brutal and straightforward comments.
Cameron Diaz who was on the receiving end of the paparazzi’s eagle eye, was reported to have said that she wished a staffer got cancer for hounding her. The Gambit actor’s comments subsequently went viral, with many users taking to social media to express their thoughts on Diaz and her behavior. One of them said,
“She seems a nasty piece of crap. Terrible thing to say. It is a devastating disease.”
Other netizens also expressed their displeasure at the actor’s serious remark while a few were not surprised since they expected Diaz to be rude and nasty. This comment came back to bite her later on through Rolling Stone founder Jann Wenner, who targeted the star in his memoir by bringing up her comment from many years ago while also rubbing salt into the wound by printing a picture of Diaz and ex-boyfriend Justin Timberlake on a beach in Hawaii.
