Is A. Rod Jealous Of Diaz & Timberlake?

By Michael Lopez

Get ready for another chapter in the ongoing saga of Alex Rodriguez and Cameron Diaz. As of last month, the on-again, off-again couple was still going strong. But that was before the media push for Cameron’s new movie Bad Teacher. Now Bossip is reporting that the Yankees slugger is dealing with a few jealousy issues, particularly because Diaz’s new costar happens to be her ex, Justin Timberlake!

Whenever a new movie comes out, the leading actors always have to make tons of appearances together. There are press junkets, talk shows, and all kinds of functions that put the co-stars in very close quarters. And seeing how Cameron and Justin had a very public romance from 2003-2006, could there be a possibility this new publicity tour may spark up old flames?

Not if A. Rod has anything to say about it. Sources claim that he visited Cameron quite a few times during the production of Bad Teacher. And seeing his beefy 6’2” frame on set was probably quite intimidating for Justin and his entourage.

According to Bossip’s insider,

“Alex Rodriguez is a very confident man when it comes to baseball..but in his love-life he’s very insecure.”

The unnamed source also said that Rodriguez has become “incredibly jealous” of the friendship that Diaz and Timberlake still share. Though we love Cameron, perhaps it's better for A. Rod if Bad Teacher becomes a box office flop. At least that way he won’t have to worry about her and JT getting together for any sequels.

Do you think A. Rod has a right to be jealous? Sound off in the comments or @MTV3.
