00:31The news comes just months after Diaz broke her 10-year hiatus

00:34and returned to the big screen in January for Back in Action opposite her old pal Jamie Foxx.

00:40This is ruffling a lot of feathers, revealed an insider of Diaz's rekindled ambitions.

01:06since she's suddenly the new flavor in town all over again.

01:27have stoked her old feud with Jennifer Aniston.

01:33and losing out to each other.

01:35The source said they even dated the same guy,

01:37British model Paul Scolfer.
