Remember Cameron Diaz’s cute underwear dance scene in Charlie’s Angels? Or the iconic bang-licking cow in There’s Something About Mary? Well, unfortunately, the renowned actress who is best known for movies like The Mask & Shrek is no longer blessing the audience with her corky and sexy roles.
It’s been eight years since Cameron Diaz decided to throw in the towel and end her acting career. Although, you might be wondering what the blonde bombshell is up to now?
Aside from starting her own business called Avaline Wine and writing health books like The Body Book & The Longevity Book, it’s possible that Diaz has dabbled in something a little more risque. Is Cameron Diaz Starring In Porn After Leaving Hollywood? We have all the facts.
Soft-core porn history
Diaz, who previously worked as a model, rose to fame almost immediately with her debut in the 1994 film The Mask, starring Jim Carrey. From there, Diaz became one of the most popular and successful actresses in Hollywood.
Before Diaz was the superstar we know and love today, she may have dabbled in some erotica. The Charlie’s Angels actress starred in a softcore erotic film before her acting career took off. So how did Cameron Diaz get into this mess?
At nineteen, Diaz did a bondage photoshoot, which was filmed and turned into a half-hour video. In the 1992 video, Diaz is dressed in a high-cut bodysuit (black and latex, I think).
According to the New York Post, she’s also shown lurking, domino-style, over a shirtless guy in chains with another young model named Natasha. In the video, Cameron pulls off points and hardens her nipples with an aerosol spray.
Two years after the gruesome video was shot, Cameron became a big hit with the success of The Mask. She continued to build the squeaky clean image she built her reputation on. However, the low-quality erotic film gained popularity and was distributed on the Internet in the following years. The actress tried to stop the footage from circulating — but the video’s owners reportedly demanded $3.5 million from her to bury it.
Diaz is fighting a blackmail and legal battle
When the 1992 video hit the web in 2004, Diaz’s lawyers were not happy. Her legal team and photographer became embroiled in a legal battle over the images and video footage.
Photographer John Rutter even allegedly tried to blackmail Diaz by asking if she wanted to buy back the footage. The Los Angeles District Attorney’s office told EW that Rutter was initially charged with one count each of racketeering, attempted grand larceny, forgery and perjury.
Rutter claims that Diaz signed an overturning contract and can do whatever he wants with them. Diaz claims that Rutter forged her signature, making the contract an illegitimate document. The photographer was found guilty and faced up to five years in prison.
Family woman and businesswoman
After a long and successful career, Cameron Diaz opened up about why she retired from acting in a recent appearance on Kevin Hart Peacock’s talk show, Hart to Heart. “For me, I really wanted my life to be manageable.
She explained to Vanity Fair that actors are often infantilized in the film industry and treated like fragile children. Diaz explained that the smallest tasks were done for her, and a big reason for her retirement was to regain her independence and self-sufficiency.
In an interview with Entertainment Weekly in 2018, she announced that she had retired from acting. Diaz’s last film before retirement was the 2014 remake of Annie. Now that he is retired, he is devoting time to his family. Diaz married Good Charlotte lead guitarist Benji Madden in 2015. In December 2019, their daughter Raddix was born.
Diaz, now forty-nine, is one of the most successful actresses on the planet. She is worth about $100 million and most recently published a book about the body. But the question remains, did Diaz star in a porn movie after retirement?
No, but she went through quite the roller coaster to eradicate her soft porn in early adulthood. She is now humbly enjoying motherhood, family and her independent success.
