Cameron Diaz Putting Career On Backburner For Alex Rodriguez

Get ready to see a lot less of Cameron Diaz on the silver screen…We’ll allow you to decide whether that’s a good thing or a bad thing….

Diaz is prompting cries of “Gurl, get’cha mind right!” from friends who believe the actress is putting her on-again/off-again romance with Yankees playboy Alex Rodriguez before her film career. Once a devoted workaholic, Cam pulled out of an appearance at the Golden Globes and promo duties for her new Seth Rogen-assisted superhero flick The Green Hornet to go on vacation with the third baseman.

“They’re obsessed with one another, and Cameron can’t tear herself away from him,” a gabbing — and unidentified — source divulged to Aussie tabloid New Weekly Monday. “She just wants to be with him all the time, to the detriment of her work.”

A-Rod — a sucker for blondes, we hear — is the father of two daughters from his ill-fated union with ex-wife Cynthia. Both girls have fallen head-over-heels for Diaz and were a driving force in the couple’s decision to give things another go after briefly calling it quits in November, the insider blabs.

“Cam thinks instead of putting her career before everything, she owes it to herself to give this partnership a real chance of being a success.”
