Talk about commiting fully to your role; Cameron Diaz has revealed how she shared a bed with not just any old cat but a motherf*ckin' CHEETAH for her forthcoming flick, The Counselor. Helmed by Sir Ridley Scott, Cameron stars here alongside Brad Pitt and Michael Fassbender as Malinka - a character who for some reason, keeps this dangerous feline in her house as a pet.

As per an insider speaking to The Sun, "When Cameron first started working with the cheetah it was strutting about like it owned the place. But now she's wearing the trousers.... It has taken a shine to her, which is good because they've had to shoot a number of scenes together, including a set-up where they shared a bed... The specialist animal handlers have been close by in case the cheetah gets a bit carried away... The building [a modernist home designed by architect Graham Phillips] is pristine and the furniture is worth a lot of money, so the potential is there for it to do a lot of damage."

So what you're saying is... you were nervous about the damage that could be done to the fancy house in which you were filming; not the fact that the Cheetah might at any point eat the face off your leading lady?

Well fair play Cameron; if you don't get an Oscar nod for this alone, then I don't know what will.
