Cameron Diaz has made a highly anticipated return to the big screen after a decade-long break, but her comeback has sparked intense speculation about her appearance. Fans have flooded the internet with searches for terms like “Cameron Diaz facelift,” “Cameron Diaz plastic surgery,” and “Cameron Diaz age,” leading the actress to consider stepping away again.
Cameron Diaz’s Frustration Over Public Scrutiny
Despite starring in Netflix’s Back in Action alongside Jamie Foxx, Diaz is frustrated by the same superficial focus on her appearance that she faced before her hiatus. According to sources, the actress is questioning whether the scrutiny is worth it, feeling like little has changed since her break.
“Cam is wondering if the exposure is worth it. It is like nothing has changed during her time away. It’s the same misogynistic and sexist nonsense about her appearance. She’s raging and feels like ducking out for another decade,” the insiders told RadarOnline.
The 52-year-old, who has long denied having any major cosmetic procedures but has experimented with Botox in the past, recently expressed her discomfort with the beauty standards that have followed her for over 30 years.
“I’ve tried Botox before, where it was like a little tiny touch of something. It changed my face in such a weird way that I was like, ‘No, I don’t want to be like that’… I’d rather see my face aging than a face that doesn’t belong to me at all,” the actress confessed to Entertainment Tonight in 2014.
“I am absolutely a victim to all of the societal objectifications, you know, that women, and exploitations that women, are subjected to,” Diaz added. “I have bought into all of them myself, you know, at certain times. It’s not hard not to. It’s hard not to look at yourself and judge yourself against other markers of beauty.”
Cameron Diaz’s Iconic Career
From her breakthrough in The Mask in 1994 to iconic roles in There’s Something About Mary, Charlie’s Angels, and The Holiday, Diaz became a household name. However, she decided to step back from acting after her role in the 2014 Annie remake. During her hiatus, she focused on her family, married Benji Madden, and had two children, cherishing the privacy and freedom her break provided.
When Jamie Foxx approached her with Back in Action, Diaz couldn’t resist returning to the industry she loves. She expressed that working with someone as talented as Foxx excited her to re-engage with her passion for entertaining.
“It’s just a privilege to do this. I thought to myself, just like, let this go away, all of this goodwill that I got to build over so much time, the passion that I have for entertaining people and making movies that make people smile and laugh and have a good time… if I don’t engage in that again then I would be a fool. The passion I have for entertaining people… if I don’t engage in that again then I would be a fool,” Diaz said during an appearance on BBC’s Graham Norton Show.
Cameron Diaz also spoke about the pressures of fame, recalling when fans filmed her and her Charlie’s Angels co-stars, Lucy Liu and Drew Barrymore, in Tokyo. “They knew we were there, and they were all holding something over their heads and we were like, ‘What is that? What are they doing?’ and the woman who was our host there said, ‘They’re filming you’. The wind was knocked out of us,” she said.
