Cameron Diaz (Norma Lewis) has been honored for both her dramatic and comedic work in a wide range of both major studio hits and acclaimed independent releases. A four-time Golden Globe nominee, Diaz earned her first nod in 1999 for her performance in the title role of the Farrelly brothers' smash hit comedy "There's Something About Mary.” She was also named the Best Actress of the Year by the New York Film Critics Circle, and won an MTV Movie Award for her work in the film.
The following year, she was Golden Globe-nominated for her role in Spike Jonze's "Being John Malkovich,” for which she also received nominations for a BAFTA Award and an individual Screen Actors Guild (SAG) Award, as well as a second SAG Award® nomination shared with the cast. Diaz garnered her third Golden Globe nomination, as well as SAG Award® and American Film Institute Award nominations, for her performance opposite Tom Cruise in Cameron Crowe's 2001 film "Vanilla Sky.” She earned her fourth Golden Globe nod for her role in Martin Scorsese's epic drama "Gangs of New York,” opposite Leonardo DiCaprio.
Diaz made her feature film debut in the 1994 Jim Carrey comedy "The Mask.” She went on to star in the smash hit romantic comedy "My Best Friend's Wedding,” with Julia Roberts, Dermot Mulroney and Rupert Everett. In 2000, she teamed with Drew Barrymore and Lucy Liu as "Charlie's Angels” in the blockbuster hit actioner. She more recently starred in the sequel "Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle.”
In 2001, Diaz gave voice to the feisty Princess Fiona, who found her one true love, and her true self, in the Oscar®-winning mega-hit "Shrek.” She reprised the role of Princess Fiona in the sequel "Shrek 2,” which was the number one film of 2004 and still ranks as the top-grossing animated feature and the top-grossing comedy film of all time. Diaz was again heard as Princess Fiona, who rallied the fairy tale princesses to defend Far Far Away in "Shrek the Third,” and she is currently voicing the character in "Shrek Forever After,” set for release in May 2010.
Her other credits include such diverse films as "The Sweetest Thing”; "Things You Can Tell Just By Looking at Her,” with Glenn Close, Holly Hunter and Amy Brenneman; Oliver Stone's "Any Given Sunday,” with Al Pacino, Dennis Quaid and Jamie Foxx; Edward Burns' "She's the One”; "Feeling Minnesota,” opposite Keanu Reeves; "Head Above Water”; Danny Boyle's "A Life Less Ordinary”; Peter Berg's "Very Bad Things,” opposite Christian Slater; "Invisible Circus”; Curtis Hanson's "In Her Shoes,” with Toni Collette and Shirley MacLaine; and Nancy Meyers' "The Holiday,” with Kate Winslet, Jude Law and Jack Black.
Diaz most recently starred in the hit comedy "What Happens in Vegas,” opposite Ashton Kutcher, and in Nick Cassavetes' drama "My Sister's Keeper.” Among her upcoming film projects are the action adventure "The Green Hornet,” with Seth Rogen, and a romantic action comedy directed by James Mangold in which she reunites with Tom Cruise, both scheduled for a 2010 release.
