So, was Cameron Diaz once in line to be step-mom supreme to Elon Musk’s colony of kids? Page Six was the first to start all the wild romance rumors. They cited a source who claimed the couple was getting super cozy in 2013. Sparks allegedly flew after she purchased one of Musk’s Tesla Model S EVs — presumably, he’d taken the day off from his usual line of business to sell cars for the day.
Things reportedly got hot and heavy fast, with Musk purportedly jetting down to Los Angeles to surprise Diaz with shocking regularity. Meanwhile, the source claimed that Diaz, whose last known relationship had been with Alex Rodriguez, was a massive admirer of the tech entrepreneur. Well, not so fast. It seems that the wild romance rumors were just that. Musk shot down the speculation in an interview with “Squawk on the Street” (via CNBC). “I don’t know where people got that from,” he said.

Sadly, for Diaz, Musk is more of a Princess Buttercup man than Princess Fiona. He evoked the children’s adventure comedy when asked if his controversial tweets negatively impact his business during a different super awkward “Squawk on the Street” interview. “You know, I’m reminded of a scene in ‘The Princess Bride,'” Musk replied following a near-unbearable period of silence. “Great movie,” he opined. Musk shared that his favorite part is where Inigo Montoya (Mandy Patinkin) confronts his dad’s killer and says, “I don’t care.” Watch out, Robin Wright.
