Cameron Diaz

I love physical kinds of comedy and getting down and dirty and doing stunts. When I was growing up, I was always getting into fights with guys and usually punching out boys my age because I was a lot bigger and tougher. So I'm naturally accustomed to putting myself into the headspace of a girl who can take care of herself. ”

Growing up, I was the plain one. I had no style. I was the tough kid with the comb in the back pocket and the feathered hair. ”

Acting is something different to everybody. I just know that if you watch an actor or actress getting better and better, I think that's them just understanding themselves better and better. ”

I am just at that stage of wondering where I go from here. I came into this business almost by accident, but now it has become serious. What started as a bit of fun, something to do other than be a model, has taken on a different career curve. I have been forced to ask where that curve is going to end up. ”

My dad always used to tell me that if they challenge you to an after-school fight, tell them you won't wait-you can kick their ass right now. ”

I was a tough kid with the jeans, the concert shirt with the flannel over it, the comb in the back pocket and the feathered hair. ”

Kids called me 'Skeletor' as a kid because I was so skinny. ”

Believe me, you can get into a lot of trouble being sixteen years old in a foreign country with no adult telling you when to come home. ”

I think I've become more comfortable about being a human being. ”

I can't say this enough, I'm totally comfortable with my body. I like my body, I don't think it's a bad thing, I think I have a nice body, I'm happy with it. ”
