CAMERON DIAZ WON'T CONFIRM MARRIAGE PLANS

Cameron Diaz In Cosmo

Cameron Diaz covers the January 2015 issue of Cosmopolitan, on newsstands nationwide December 9. The star opens up to the magazine about what makes for a successful relationship, what she’s learned from past loves, and even how she felt being asked to sing while playing the role of Miss Hannigan in Annie, in theaters later this month.

Diaz neither confirms nor denies recent reports of an upcoming wedding to Benji Madden, but shares thoughts on what makes for a good relationship:

“You have to find someone in the same place as you are. Timing is everything. If you get into a relationship where you want something the guy doesn’t want, it’s never gonna work. You’re never going to get him to be in that place. No matter how old you are, finding the guy who’s in the same place as you are and wants to show up is the only way a relationship works, period.”

On learning from past relationships:

“Here’s the thing. You make the same mistake over and over again until you learn your lesson. We girls sometimes do the thing where we pick the same person over and over again – they look and seem different, but deep down, they’re the same. And that’s on us."

On having to sing in her role as Miss Hannigan in Annie, which hits theaters December 19:

“It was the most terrifying thing I’ve ever done in a movie. I cried a lot. [Miss Hannigan is] bitter because her chance at fame was stolen, and all she can taste is that taste, which is very much in line with this day and age. People determine your value by how many friends you have on Facebook or if you’re Instagram famous.”
