Cameron Diaz

Because of her slim figure, pretty face, and bubbly personality, it’s no wonder that Cameron Diaz started as a model. She was only 16 years old and still in high school when she signed a modeling contract with Elite Model Management. Cameron appeared in numerous advertisements for Calvin Klein, Levi’s, and Coca-Cola. At the age of 21, she made her film debut in The Mask, followed by numerous supporting roles for movies like My Best Friend’s Wedding, There’s Something About Mary, and Vanilla Sky. 

It was her performance in Charlie’s Angels that boosted her career, and Cameron found herself starring in high-profile films, including Gangs of New York, The Green Hornet, Bad Teacher, Shrek, and Annie. Throughout her acting career, Diaz was able to earn multiple recognitions and nominations. She was also hailed as the highest-paid actress in 2013, ranking  as the 5th highest-grossing box office actress with over $3 billion in ticket sales in North America. Now, Cameron is a retired actress, author, and businesswoman who promotes her organic wine brand, Avaline.
