Cameron Diaz | 49 Years Old

To some degree, the world truly is a small place. For one, it’s quite surprising to know that Cameron Diaz and Snoop Dogg were schoolmates during their high school years. With that said, she also started her career around that time as a model. After working on one modeling gig after another, she landed her first acting project at twenty-one years old. Well, who would’ve thought it would also be her introduction to the spotlight?

Diaz got her acting debut portraying Tina Carlyle in the hit Jim Carrey-led movie The Mask. Since then, before retiring from acting in 2014, the actress has garnered widespread recognition for starring in films such as There’s Something About Mary, Charlie’s Angels and its sequel, The Green Hornet, and Gangs of New York. After retiring, she has focused more of her time as a businesswoman, notably investing in biotech and health-related businesses.
