Cameron Diaz has always been "boy crazy".

The 'What Happens In Vegas' actress - who is currently dating British male model Paul Sculfor - has never been able to control her interest in the opposite sex.

She said: "I've never had a problem with boys. I have always liked boys, I always have crushes on boys and I have been boy-crazy since I was knee-high. Ask my mom, she'll tell you!

"But it's hard meeting normal people in the world, period - and in this business it's really hard to find people who are down-to-earth. But luckily I have a good core group of girlfriends. And I am happiest when I can get away with them or family and just be with the people I love."

Cameron - who has previously been romantically linked to Justin Timberlake, John Mayer, Matt Dillon, Jared Leto and magician Criss Angel - also revealed she has her own definition of love.

She added: "With love there is two parts to the journey - the first is accepting yourself and who you are and the second is opening yourself to the right person.

"I think everyone asks themselves the same question - when do you learn to be happy with yourself and when do you need to open up to another person and have faith that love will work? We all go through that."
