Hollywood actress Cameron Diaz is reportedly interested in seeing the Taj Mahal, one of the Seven Wonders of the World.

Tom Cruise and his Wichita co-star Cameron Diaz faced five potentially embarrassing questions each for a segment called Ten @ Ten on The Jay Leno Show, which airs at 10pm in the US.

Diaz was first asked what the first Tom Cruise movie she watched was. She said: “Erm, Top Gun. I won’t forget it.”

Cruise was then told to recite a line from the film, “with feeling”. He replied: “I feel the need, the need… The audience then shouted: “For speed!”

But things got slightly awkward when Leno asked Diaz: “Who spends more time in the make-up chair, you or Tom?”

Both groaned: “Come on, please!” Diaz joked: “Clearly me, Jay. Those [Tom's] cheeks are fresh and real.”

Then Leno asked: “Have you ever been to a strip club?” Cruise replied: “Actually I never have been.”

For the final question, Leno asked: “I know you’re a pilot, what are you better at – flying or sex?”

Cruise, 47, squirmed in his chair and leaned back and forth before answering: “You know what, I don’t know.”

Putting on a brave face, he kept grinning and said: “I try to excel in all areas and I’ve never been asked for a refund, so I don’t know.”

My Sister’s Keeper star Cameron Diaz has said she is “very excited” to be working with Tom Cruise again.

Cameron, 36, will be teaming up with Tom, 46, for the film Wichita, about an undercover agent who meets a woman who hasn’t had much luck with romance, which is scheduled for a 2010 release.

Talking about the film, she said: “Well, if I didn’t like it, I wouldn’t be doing it.”

She added: “I’m very, very excited about doing it. It’s an action film, so I’m really excited to work with him.”

Cameron was recently honoured with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and she said it was “great” to see Tom and wife Katie Holmes there to cheer her on. She said: “I was really happy to see them.”

She added: “They were wonderful. It was fantastic.

“It was so lovely of them to come out and show support. My whole family was there and my friends were there.

“And I consider them that as well. So it was really wonderful to have them here.”

Cameron Diaz credits her co-stars as the reason she could get back to shooting their new flick after her dad died in the middle of filming.

Cameron, 36, was left devastated after her dad Emilio died after contracting pneumonia while she was shooting movie My Sister’s Keeper.

She said: “I was really, really fortunate to have these people to come back to.”

Cameron, who is currently promoting the new film with her co-stars Abigail Breslin and Sofia Vassilieva, added: “Being able to go back to the group of people who were there waiting for me was a blessing… so that’s really sort of the only way I was able to do it.”

The film’s director, Nick Cassavetes, worked through her absence by filming around her for two weeks.

He said: “To talk about this subject, you really have to say that people are more important than movies, and we forget that sometimes.”

He added: “We were all stunned to find out that he had died so suddenly and, apparently, he was a hell of a guy and a gigantic influence on Cameron.”

Cameron Diaz says that ageing is “wonderful” and something she does not fear.

Diaz, 36, told a US magazine:”Thank God we get older because if we’re not getting older, we’re dead. This is a much better option. And if we’re not going forward, then we’re stagnant, and we’re stuck. And I’ve been stuck before. And I don’t like it. It’s not fun.”

Diaz recently split from UK actor Paul Sculfor.

She said: “You gain knowledge …. And you grow. There’s nothing wrong with that. That’s a wonderful thing. I don’t have to prove anything to anybody because I know who I am. I have my own sense of myself. The things that I do, I do for myself. I do them to challenge myself. And I do them to have my own experience. And, hopefully, I’m also giving something back to the world.”

Cameron Diaz is set to star as an ambulance-chasing lawyer in an upcoming comedy.

The Shrek star will play the lead role in Bobbie Sue, about a hard-nosed injury lawyer who is recruited by a top New York attorney firm to fight a sexual discrimination suit brought against one of its clients.

The film will be a return to her comedy roots for Diaz, who will next be seen on the big screen in the drama My Sister’s Keeper with Abigail Breslin.

Based on the book by Jodi Picoult, the story follows young girl Anna, played by Breslin, who was genetically engineered to be born as an organ donor and bone marrow match for her sister battling leukemia.

When she grows up she sues her mother, played by Diaz, to be emancipated.

“The Mask” star Cameron Diaz and her beau model Paul Sculfor may be headed for the altar. The two have been dating since last year and are reportedly living together in Diaz’ abode in Los Angeles. But while the couple has mentioned marriage several times, they do not want to rush things and ruin what they have. Both may be scared of the responsibilities that marriage brings but they have started to play house, perhaps as a trial and error process.

Diaz, who became popular for her “Charlie’s Angels” movie, has already met the friend and families of Sculfor and vice versa. More family events are expected in the future as the two try their best to get to know not just each other but also the people close to them. Sculfor has previously been linked to model Lisan Snowdon and Jennifer Aniston. Diaz will be pretty busy these days as she has been chosen as one of the presenters of the 66th Annual Golden Globe Awards on January 11 which will be telecast live on NBC. Diaz was last seen, rather heard, as the voice of Princess Fiona in the “Shrek” film franchise. She however said starring in “Shrek the Musical” is definitely not for her even though she is a big fan of the musical because what the stage actors and actresses are doing up there is a wonderful but impossible job.

The actress will fly to England to meet her boyfriend’s mom. Paul Sculfor, the actress’ boyfriend thinks his mom will like Cameron very much. Even though the couple are extremely happy together, they will not be getting married anytime soon. Paul had this to say: “You know, we’re having fun. She has openly said she does not want marriage, so we’re coasting.” One must wonder what this “coasting” is all about. It seems that Paul’s mother will never get the chance to “mother-in-law” Cameron Diaz… hopefully, she won’t be too disappointed.
