Cameron DiazCameron Michelle Diaz (born August 30, 1972) is an American film actress. Diaz was born and raised in San Diego, California. Her father is from Cuba. After pursuing a modelling career, she was cast in the commercially successful 1994 Jim Carrey film The Mask. Her role was minimal and essentially embodied the stereotypical "pretty blonde girl" that is oft to be found in cinema. However, she subsequently took roles in films with more substantial subject matter such as Feeling Minnesota. She stood out as a "perfect" fiancée in the romantic comedy My Best Friend's Wedding (1997) and many consider her role in the crude comedy There's Something About Mary (1998) to be her real break-through performance. Diaz then veered away from mainstream cinema into independent film with the quirky Being John Malkovich (1999) and Oliver Stone took risks when he gave her a role in Any Given Sunday (1999). Both films enjoyed critical and commercial success and critics heralded Diaz's performances. Diaz is widely considered to be an extremely attractive woman, and as such has been listed in "sexiest" and "most beautiful" lists in various periodicals including FHM and People. In 2004 an old S&M video, where Diaz appeared when she was 19 years old, was leaked out on the Internet. The video was a recording of a S&M photo session with Diaz and another girl torturing a man. Diaz has filed a suit against the Russian Internet site distributing the video, but this has attracted enough attention to this obscure video to temporarily make it very popular on the Net. The file is now distributed by many porn sites and can be downloaded from any major Peer-to-peer (P2P) network. In September of 2004, Diaz created some controversy after her appearance on The Oprah Winfrey Show. The show in question, concerned celebrities encouraging young people to vote in the upcoming Presidential election. While Diaz was sitting next to her Charlie's Angels co-star Drew Barrymore, singer Christina Aguilera, and hip-hop mogul Sean "P. Diddy" Combs, Diaz gave the ominous warning " If you think rape should be legal then don't vote!" (http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1231579/posts) Several pundits like conservative talk show host Laura Ingraham alleged that Diaz was cleverly trying to disguise her scare tactic-like statement as another way of saying that if you didn't vote for Democratic challenger John Kerry, a victorious President George W. Bush would try to ban the right to have a legal abortion. It should be noted that Cameron Diaz was very vocal of her support (http://www.liberalartists.com/cgi-bin/index.cgi?action=viewnews&id=52) for Al Gore in 2000. Diaz went as far as sporting a t-shirt that read I WON'T VOTE FOR A SON OF A BUSH! while making publicity for Charlie's Angels. Diaz got in even further controversy about a month later when she was caught attacking a tabloid photographer. Diaz and her boyfriend, Justin Timberlake snatched away a photographer's camera when he and another man surprised them outside the ritzy Chateau Marmont hotel. Representatives for Diaz and Timberlake claimed that they were "ambushed by two men, who jumped out of a concealed hiding place on a dark, deserted street late at night." They added that "any actions by Diaz and Timberlake were merely taken in self-defense." The pictures of Diaz snatching the camera soon appeared in "Us Weekly." Actress- filmography
