Movie actress Cameron Diaz is one of the most beautiful and instantly recognizable stars on the planet.
Diaz, 53, has been acting since the early 1990s. Aside from a career-break between 2014 and 2021, her credits on the big screen have been prolific — primarily, but not exclusively, in comedy and drama movies.
She shot to fame in 1994 with her film debut in the superhero slapstick comedy “The Mask.” The actress then established herself as a major star throughout the rest of the 90s, with roles in movies like 1997 rom-coms “My Best Friend’s Wedding” and “A Life Less Ordinary,” 1998’s black comedy “Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas” and rom-com “There’s Something About Mary,” and 1999’s surrealist fantasy comedy-drama “Being John Malkovich” and sports drama “Any Given Sunday.”
Since then, she has voiced Princess Fiona in the “Shrek” franchise and appeared in movies like 2002’s epic historical drama “Gangs of New York,” 2010’s satirical action comedy “Knight and Day,” 2011’s superhero comedy movie “The Green Hornet,” and 2025’s action comedy “Back in Action.”
That kind of fame has taken Diaz to many a red carpet. When she steps out onto them, she’s always the center of press attention. That’s resulted in thousands of red carpet photographs being taken of her.
These are Cameron Diaz’s best and most beautiful photos from red carpets over the years.
