Cameron Diaz Doesn’t Care What You Think!

Posted by Adam

Cameron DiazCAMERON Diaz has learned to love herself.

The Charlie’s Angels: Full Throttle star says she refuses to go through life hating herself because other people don’t like her.

“I don’t think that self-deprecation is healthy for people,” she says. “I think you should have a healthy relationship with yourself. We all have our up days and our down days. But I’m not going to walk through this world hating myself because somebody doesn’t like me or doesn’t think I’m pretty or that I should be ashamed that people think that I’m pretty.

“How am I going to live my life trying to figure out what everybody else feels about me? All I can do is know how I feel about myself.”

Diaz, 37, recently insisted she’s happy to her love life out of the spotlight — because she doesn’t want details of who she’s romancing splashed across blogs, magazines and TV shows.

“Love lives of the famous are distractions from people’s own love lives,” she said. “There are some celebrities who like to sell their own experiences, who are just out front with it. And that’s something that people can buy. And there are other people who have their moments stolen from them by the media and by the paparazzi.

“Then millions of readers and TV viewers occupy their time with those stolen moments. If I’m missing from the pages and the blogs and the shows, I don’t think that’s such a devastation.”

“I don’t have to prove anything to anybody,” she adds. “I know who I am. I have my own sense of myself. And the things that I do, I do for myself and to challenge myself and to have my own experience.

“I’m in a completely different place in my life now and I’m very comfortable where I’m at. I’m looking forward to the future. I’m looking forward to this afternoon and tomorrow and the next day and a month from now.”

      that's good for cameron i wish i felt that way about myself

  • Paul

    Screw 'em, Cameron. Actually I had another word in mind, but you get the point. Don't you baby. You're absolutely stunning. I thought you were a goddess in "The Mask". And when you smile …! ! ! I loose my mind.

  • welliwonder

    the mask is almost 2 decades ago, but you're still lovely. I agree that self- deprecation is not healthy, I also think it's an annoying "please give me a compliment" guilt ridden action. You sound together, speak more, they're are not many other roll models in the super star realm.

    This is why Cameron is such a great actress, sexy and down to earth. Its not only her outside beauty, its also her inner beauty. What a combination!

    • jon

      i meet 72 people a day with these same qualities, who cares

  • brenda

    who cares about cameron diaz or any body else!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! she sleeps with every man she knows .

    • dina

      The only way you would know that for sure Brenda! is if you were with her every time she met a new male. youre a moron!

  • Jack

    There is something about Cameron that is real and sincere that is not there about so many in Hollywood today. She has more character in her hand than most have in their heads. When you see her in a movie, you forget the problems of the day, and apprecitate her for the great actress she is.

  • Haley Babe

    You go girl! We all need to remember that you have to think of yourself proudly and sincerely in order to be your best for all.

  • dina

    Cameron is way tooooo good for Hollywood. She is extremely intelligent and a genuinely great person, unlike most of the actresses in LA. At the moment there is too many trashy spoiled little nothings with a name they were born with, like that Lamas wanna be, and OH don't forget the Kardashian sisters. AhhhhhhYUK. Thank you Cameron for being a class act; everything to do is entertaining and funny!!

  • Larry

    cameron I love all your movies I am your one number fan

  • Jill

    Cameron, if you don't care about what anyone thinks…then why even do this interview?!? You have millions of dollars from those small-minded people that spend their hard earned money to read about you in magazines and go see your movies. If your rebuttal is "it's not about the money" then give every penny away, except for maybe an $8/hour income, to charity then see if it helps you "escape" from the stress of trying to pay the bills….escape just for a minute… to read about someone else's life. Celebrities think they have it so rough, always complaining about people caring about their life. It is ironic, during this time in our country, that men and women can go work 2 jobs or go risk their lives for our freedom, and complain of nothing.
