Courteney Cox: David Arquette is 'not a malicious person'

There are still no hard feelings between Courteney Cox and David Arquette, the actress maintains in a new interview.

"You can't really get mad at David because he's not a malicious person," Cox tells Harper's Bazaar. 

Drenched in soft and sleek dresses and rocking some diva hair, Cox posed for photog Terry Richardson in a spread with a decidedly '70s feel -- and had some thoroughly modern issues on her mind.

"I don't know what's going to happen" as far as Arquette's future and sobriety are concerned, Cox said, "but I don't think he'll be doing more Howard Stern any time soon. He's not out to harm. But I'm his biggest protector. I can't help it."

He could sure use the protection with a ghost-faced killer running around. The now-estranged couple met on the set of Wes Craven's horror franchise "Scream," and will help release the fourth installment on April 15.

Ok, so why again would Courtney Cox be mad at David Arquette? All the guy did was be honest with his feelings for her and so he went on the Howard Stern show, to tell his side of the story before some paper published photos of him with another woman. Hello? Did you all miss the story or are all these fashion magazines going to ignore it. The story is Cox cheated on her husband and she is the one to blame not Arquette. She has a daughter with Arquette and she cheated on him with some guy she works with...geese what a looser Cox is! And poor David still adores that woman, she's trash to me and I'll never watch another one of her B-list shows! This world is crazy, you can't have a man go on a nationally syndicated show and profess how crazy in love he is without getting bashed for it. Yes he didn't go on Oprah first, who cares...and people just because Oprah exploits people in a nice way and refuses to ask hard questions doesn't mean she's better then Howard Stern. Stern is Oprah just on the radio not TV, and he does it in a more honest way!
