There is hardly anyone who would question who she is. As one of the leading stars of Hollywood in the 1990s and 2000s, Diaz’s career began as a model which gradually transitioned into acting. It was her individual charm, captivating nature and versatility that made her a standout figure of the time. Everything started with Elite Model Management when Cameron was still a 16-year-old teen.
However, it was her breakthrough role in «The Mask» that became a turning point in her career. There, she played alongside J. Carrey solidifying her status as Hollywood golden girl. Her ability to embrace both dramatic and comedic roles proved her versatility and professionalism as a film star. Diaz’s portrayal in «There is Something About Mary» and «Charlie’s Angels» brought her career into a new level confirming her America’s Sweetheart image.
Diaz brilliantly portrayed complex characters in «Vanilla Sky» and «Gangs of New York». Not everyone knows that she even auditioned in Shrek voice-acting Fiona which significantly contributed to her success. Surprisingly, she put an end to her career at its very peak after her role in Annie which raised many questions. The thing is that she started to prioritize family life.
The actress married musician B. Madden in 2015 with whom she welcomed 2 adorable kids. This emphasizes her desire to focus on her family’s well-being and dedicating herself to it to the fullest. She has left a forever mark on the entertainment industry with her achievements not only in acting but also in business having ventured her own brand Avaline.
