Cameron Diaz was born in 1972 in San Diego. She is the daughter of Billie (Anglo-German) and Emilio Diaz (Cuban-American). Self described as "adventurous, independent and a tough kid," Cameron left home at 16 and for the next 5 years lived in such varied locales as Japan, Australia, Mexico, Morocco, and Paris.
Returning to California at the age of 21, she was working as a model when her agency secured her an audition for the female lead in The Mask (1994). To her amazement and despite having no previous acting experience, she was cast opposite Jim Carrey in the blockbuster film, which launched her into stardom virtually overnight.
She stepped back into the mainstream with My Best Friend's Wedding (1997), another hit film in which she gave a great performance and held her own against Julia Roberts. By 1998 she had earned full fledged star status after playing the title role in the box office smash There's Something About Mary (1998).
With her name near the top on virtually every list of Hollyood's sexiest actresses, and firmly established as one of filmdom's hottest properties and most sought after actresses, Cameron Diaz appears to possess everything necessary to become one of the super stars of the new century.
