Diaz, 51, shot to fame in 1994 starring as Tina Carlyle in the hit comedy film The Mask, alongside Jim Carrey.
Her early career as a model led to her starring role in the movie and launched her into stardom. Since its release, the actress has become one of Hollywood’s bombshells and has starred in over 40 films.
Diaz has not been on the big screens since 2014, having settled down with her husband and two children.
She’s entered the next chapter of her life, motherhood – which has led to discussion surrounding her choice of baby name.
Diaz has stayed out of the spotlight since 2014, choosing to focus on her family life with her husband and two children. Embracing the next phase of her journey as a mother, she’s sparked conversations about her unique choice of baby name.
“I don’t have what it takes to give making a movie what it needs to be made. All of my energy is here.”
But it turns out, fans of Diaz will not have to wait long for her return to the big screen.
The movie and Diaz’s return to Hollywood has sparked rumors online, which the star has quickly shut down.
Claims have been made that Diaz didn’t enjoy her experience on set with Foxx and said she would ‘quit acting again.’
She put these rumors to bed on Molly Sims’ Lipstick on the Rim podcast.
The There’s Something About Mary star has strongly denied the online rumors surrounding the set of her latest film, saying, “I really hate all of the things that were being said about our set at the time. You just want to scream at the top of your lungs, like, ‘What are you talking about?’”
She went on to praise her co-star, Jamie Foxx, explaining, “Jamie is like the cheerleader for the entire crew. Everybody loves him. We have so much fun on set with him, and he’s just a professional on every level.”
While she did acknowledge the unexpected delays during filming, she chose not to elaborate, saying, “That’s something that is not my place to speak about,” possibly referring to Foxx’s hospitalization in April 2023.
As for her future in Hollywood, it remains uncertain whether Diaz’s new Netflix project will mark a comeback to acting or if she will continue to embrace life outside the spotlight.
Four years later, Diaz and her husband have welcomed a baby boy into the world, and his name has surprised fans.
The couple have named their son Cardinal Madden – a name causing a divide online.
One person says: “Cameron Diaz + Benji Madden = CARDINAL Madden. I mean name your kids whatever you want, but that’s terrible.”
“What a silly name to give a child!” another adds.
Somebody else says: “Only in Hollywood.”
Yet it isn’t all negative, some fans love the name Diaz has chosen, with one fan writing: “Love Cardinal!! It’s a beautiful name!”
“Different names are in and I like it!’ agrees another.
