Cameron Diaz only has eyes for her husband.
The “Charlie’s Angels” star recently revealed on the “Anna Farris Is Unqualified” podcast that she thinks her hubby, Benji Madden, is “hot” but never thought the same of his twin brother, Joel Madden, Today reports.
Diaz, 49, says that she and the Good Charlotte guitarist, 42, were set up after Joel Madden and his wife introduced them. Joel is currently married to Nicole Richie. The two have a daughter, Harlow, age 13, and a son, Sparrow, age 12.
"I met (my husband) through my now sister-in-law and brother-in-law. I met them first and then they didn’t set us up but we were in the same room because of them, and then we found each other," Diaz told the outlet. She added, “I was like, ‘How come I didn’t see him before?’”
"Which is funny," interjected Diaz's business partner Katherine Power, "Because you saw his twin brother."
Diaz explained that despite being twins, they are very much their own person.
"They’re not the same, they’re so different," she said. "Even though they’re twins, they’re very, very different, obviously."
Recalling that first meeting with Benji Madden, Diaz continued, "I saw him walking towards me and I was like, 'Huh, he’s hot. I haven’t seen him before.'"
“But then when I saw him, like who he was — that’s what made me really be like, ‘Oh, you, you, you’re special. You’re the guy. You’re the hidden gem in my life,’” she gushed.
