CAMERON Diaz has revealed that the short hair she debuted in January was not only an accident but that the cut led her to "burst into tears."

"There was a little misunderstanding," she explained on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno of her pre-Christmas cut. "I said, ‘Oh I just want a little bit off' ... and it went from here to here," she added, gesturing two very different hair lengths. Once Diaz saw the new do, her reaction wasn't so pleasant. "I just burst into tears and started crying, and I felt so vulnerable," she explained. "For a woman to all of a sudden have no hair, oh my god."

Diaz revealed that the incident happened when she went to a friend's house for a haircut just before the holidays. She says the friend has been cutting her hair for ages. "I felt really bad, she felt really bad, she started crying, I started crying, a couple of other people started crying," Diaz said. But soon the situation smoothed over. "I ended up writing her a few emails after, the next couple days, assuring her I wasn't going to kill her."

As Leno pointed out, it's unique that Diaz gets her haircuts from a friend (in that friend's kitchen, no less) - not at a chic Los Angeles salon. But the actress said she's been getting kitchen haircuts from this friend - and her own mother - for quite some time. She joked, "I'm in her kitchen often with the cape around my neck, going, ‘I hope we're not going to cook after that.'"

Over the years great actors Leo and Jude have shared the screen with Cameron but now both of them they want to be the real life lovers too. Last week after the break up with his long term girlfriend Bar Rafaeli, Leo took his old Gangs of New York co-star on a series of secret dates around London. A source said: "Cameron has been showing a lot of interest while he is in London filming. She was back at his rented apartment in Knightsbridge, west London, a couple of times last week after a series of secret dates. They were joking with friends that they played chess together." Even Jude is not missing out his chance to impress Cameron.  "Jude and Cameron have been good friends since they filmed The Holiday together a few years ago. Now they are both single, things are a bit different between them. Jude has been flirting with her and she has been playing along."

This was about the two men but what about Cameron?  She split from Essex brickie Paul Sculfor earlier this year. Before him she lasted a couple of years with Justin Timberlake, Matt Dillon, and Jared Leto and there was a quick fling with Adam Levine, what a list. Let's wait and watch who is lucky among Leo and Jude. Have a look at the pictures of Cameron Diaz.
