Cameron Diaz Denies Angel Split Involvement

Actress Cameron Diaz has denied having anything to do with illusionist Criss Angel's separation from his wife.

In papers filed by Angel's estranged wife Joanne Sarantakos at Nassau County Court, New York on Friday the bitter ex named the Charlie's Angels star as the "other woman" in her divorce battle.

A legal representative for Sarantakos, who is said to have hired a private investigator to track Angel's activities, said, "We're naming Cameron Diaz as his lover. We will subpoena her as soon as she comes back to New York."

However, Diaz's spokesman Brad Cafarelli tells website People.com, "When Cameron met Criss Angel in May of this year, he had been separated from his wife for over a year and she had already filed a petition to divorce him in 2006."

Angel, 39, recently denied being in a relationship with Diaz, 34, following a string of sightings of the couple in Las Vegas. In a TV interview, the magic man said, "I'm honoured to call Cameron a friend."
