Cameron Diaz

News Item: Cameron Diaz deserves credit for apologizing for sporting a bag that seemed to glamorize the Maoist terrorist movement that claimed the lives of 70,000 Peruvians.

Now she should apologize for popularizing Ugg Boots. The sheepskin boots with the wool fleece liner took off in 2003 when she started wearing them in warm weather.

Cameron Diaz has admitted that she’s a spoiled brat who always gets her own way.

The Charlie’s Angels star believes that her diva-like ways and fear of commitment has caused her to miss out on big movie roles.

"There are a lot of great roles out there but you know my problem? I'm really bad at commitment,” she says.

"I just hate committing myself to anything. I'm terrible at making plans. I have no idea where I want to be. It's probably comes from me being a total spoiled brat and always getting my own way."

Cameron claims that her commitment phobia also prevents her from getting pets: "I don't even want a dog. My cat just died and I don't want another cat.

“Oh god, I've just opened another friggin' can of worms."

Anna Kournikova

Anna Sergeyevna Kournikova, born June 7, 1981 is a retired Russian professional tennis player and model. Although she never won a major singles tournament, she became one of the best known tennis players worldwide. At the peak of her fame, fans looking for images of Kournikova made her name (or misspellings of it) one of the most common search strings on Google.

She was born in Moscow, Soviet Union to Alla and Sergei Kournikov; her family later migrated to the United States. Presently, she resides in Miami, Florida.

In 2000, Kournikova became the new face for Berlei's shock absorber sports bras range, and appeared in the highly successful "only the ball should bounce" bill board campaign. Photographs of her scantily-clad form have appeared in various men's magazines, including more than one much-publicized Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issues (2004 - 2005), where she posed in bikinis and swimsuits, and in other popular men's publications such as FHM and Maxim.

Kournikova was named one of People's 50 Most Beautiful People in 1998, 2000, 2002, and 2003 and was voted "hottest female athlete" and "hottest couple" (with Iglesias) on ESPN.com. In 2002 she also placed first in FHM's 100 Sexiest Women in the World in U.S. and UK editions.

By contrast, ESPN - citing the degree of hype as compared to actual accomplishments as a singles player - ranked Kournikova 18th in its "25 Biggest Sports Flops of the Past 25 Years".

Kournikova had a small role (as a motel manager) in the 2000 film Me, Myself and Irene, starring Jim Carrey.

A man named William Lepeska once swam naked across Biscayne Bay in search of her Miami Beach home after attempting to contact Kournikova via a number of letters and e-mails. When apprehended by the police, Lepeska violently resisted arrest.
