Cameron Diaz was photographed in New York City on August 3, sporting a casual look that aligns with her public stance against Hollywood’s demanding beauty standards.
The 52-year-old actress, dressed in a double-denim outfit with glasses and her hair in a bun, appeared to be embracing her role as a busy mother. Diaz shares two children, five-year-old Raddix and 16-month-old Cardinal, with her husband of ten years, Benji Madden.
Diaz has been a vocal critic of the pressures within the entertainment industry. “It’s hard not to look at yourself and judge yourself against other markers of beauty,” she previously stated on Michelle Visage’s Rule Breakers podcast. “You’re just sitting in front of the mirror, and it’s just toxic. You start to pick yourself apart.”
After stepping away from acting to focus on her family and her organic wine line, Diaz authored two books centered on wellness and body acceptance. While she has admitted to trying Botox, she advocates for a positive view of aging.
In The Body Book, she writes, “I look at aging like this: getting older is a blessing and a privilege, and if you lay the foundation for a healthy life in your younger years, your older years may very well be some of the best of your life.”
