Cameron Diaz Gets Candid About Why She Walked Away from Acting
View StoryBack in January, in honor of their eight-year anniversary, Benji posted on Instagram, “In Love, Inspired, Happy and Grateful. 8 years married, side by side, and now a little one for us to guide🐣let’s do 80 more and then forever ❤️❤️❤️ happy anniversary 1•5•✨@camerondiaz my ❤️❤️🔥🌹🌎.”
Fans will see more of Cameron in the coming months thanks to her new action-comedy “Back in Action.” The star came out of retirement to make the film with Jamie Foxx.
Prior to his recent health battle, Jamie talked with “Extra” about convincing Diaz to return to the screen with the help of Tom Brady, who famously unretired from the NFL for a season.
Foxx said, “I've known Cameron for some years and we did ‘Any Given Sunday’… I met her on ‘In Living Color’ when she was doing the movie [‘The Mask’] with Jim Carrey. So, it was just like, we miss her so much and it was basically a plea of like, you know, ‘Give us, give us, give us something else’… Having the ability to call Tom Brady and things like that was really, I think, innovative and it was great. And she went with it and so now we'll be in the next Netflix phenom.”
