Diaz spotted with Jessica Simpson's ex

Cameron Diaz has been spotted on a date with Jessica Simpson's ex-boyfriend in a New York restaurant.

The Charlie's Angels actress shared a romantic meal with rock musician John Mayer on Tuesday, say reports.

A friend of the star said: "This was technically not their first time hanging out. But this was the first time together like this. It's new and developing, but they like each other and it went well."

Rocker Mayer split with former lover Simpson for what was believed to be the twelfth time back in June.
