The Hollywood star Cameron Diaz is on a mission to “normalize separate bedrooms” for couples, saying that they should even have different houses.
Diaz Sounds Off
Diaz, who has been married to the guitarist Benji Madden since 2015, said this while appearing on the “Lipstick on the Rim” podcast on Tuesday.
“We should normalize separate bedrooms,” said Diaz, 51. “To me, I would literally, I have my house, you have yours. We have a family house in the middle. I will go and sleep in your room, you go sleep in your room. I’m fine.”
“And we have the bedroom in the middle that we can convene in for our relations,” she continued.
When Diaz was warned that she was creating a “bad headline,” she immediately brushed off any concerns.
“I’ve already said it,” she explained. “By the way, I don’t feel that way now because my husband is so wonderful. I said that before I got married.”

Diaz Returns To Acting
Entertainment Tonight reported that Diaz recently returned to acting for the first time in nearly a decade to star with Jamie Foxx in the film Back in Action, which has yet to be released. This was Diaz’s first acting gig since she starred in the 2014 version of Annie.
“It’s like riding a bike,” she said of performing, going on to explain why she took the role, which required her to move her family to London during filming.
“My husband and I made the decision for our family,” she said. “It was really about what our family needed. We had been in COVID, our daughter was three months old when COVID started. She was wanting — we wanted to kind of get out in the world. Like, have to get out in the world kind of thing.”
Diaz went on to say that she and Madden split parenting duties during filming. He would watch their daughter during the day and run his businesses at night, while Diaz would watch their daughter at night and film during the day.
“We were both kinda like, this is a great idea,” she said with a laugh. “But it really was. We had a great time.”

Diaz Defends Jamie Foxx
During this same interview, Diaz denied rumors that Foxx had made “everything miserable and that I was never gonna make another movie again because of him.” She described Foxx, who she’s worked with on two other films in the past, as being a “cheerleader for the entire crew,” adding that “everybody loves him.”
“Jamie is the best. I love that guy so much. He’s such a special person, and he’s so talented, so much fun,” Diaz said. “We have so much fun on the set with him, and he’s just a professional on every level.”
“I really hate all of the things that were being said about our set,” she continued. “You just want to scream at the top of your lungs, like, ‘What are you talking about?’”
