Cameron Michelle Díaz

Born on August 30, 1972
Cameron Michelle Díaz is a Golden Globe-, BAFTA- and SAG-Award nominated U.S. actress and former model. In 2008, Forbes estimates Diaz to have earned $50 million last year, after reportly receiving this salary for What Happens in Vegas making her the highest paid actress in Hollywood.







At 16 she began her career as a fashion model. Diaz signed with top modeling agency Elite Model Management. After graduating from high school, she went to work in Japan and met video director Carlo de la Torre. On her return to the U.S., she moved in with him. For the next few years, her modeling took her around the world, working for contracts with major companies. She modelled for designers such as Calvin Klein and Levi's. She was featured on the cover of the July 1990 issue of Seventeen magazine.

At 21, Diaz auditioned for The Mask, even though she had no previous acting experience. After obtaining the lead female role, she immediately started acting lessons. Over the next three years, she won roles in low-budget, independent films, such as The Last Supper, Feeling Minnesota, and She's the One. She then regained mainstream success with her roles in My Best Friend's Wedding and There's Something About Mary, a film for which she was nominated for a Golden Globe for in the category of Best Actress - Musical or Comedy. She won critical acclaim for her performance in Being John Malkovich, which earned her Best Supporting Actress nominations at the Golden Globes, the BAFTA Awards and the SAG Awards.

In September 2004, Diaz created some controversy after her appearance on The Oprah Winfrey Show. The show in question, concerned celebrities encouraging young people to vote in the upcoming Presidential election. While Diaz was sitting next to her Charlie's Angels co-star Drew Barrymore, singer Christina Aguilera, and hip-hop mogul Sean "Diddy" Combs, Diaz gave the ominous warning "Women have so much to lose. I mean, we could lose the right to our bodies. We could lo--if you think that rape should be legal, then don't vote. But if you think that you have a right to your body, and you have a right to say what happens to you and fight off that danger of losing that, then you should vote." Several pundits like talk show host Laura Ingraham alleged that Diaz was trying to disguise her scare tactic-like statement as another way of saying that if you didn't vote for Democratic challenger John Kerry, a victorious President George W. Bush would somehow try to ban the right to have a legal abortion. The actress was vocal in her support for Al Gore in 2000. Diaz went so far as sporting a t-shirt that read "I won't vote for a son of a Bush!" while making publicity for Charlie's Angels

Mayte Michelle Rodriguez

Born on July 12, 1978
Mayte Michelle Rodriguez better known as Michelle Rodriguez, is an American actress, known for starring in films such as Girlfight, The Fast and the Furious, Resident Evil, and S.W.A.T. as well as her role in the television series Lost.


"My favorite part of my body is my brain. I think no matter what my body looks like I wont be satisfied unless I know how to use it."

"[on why she always plays the "tough girl"]: Well, could you really imagine me playing the girlfriend that needs rescuing? Or the girlfriend?"

"Whenever a female takes a strong stand for herself, the majority of the time they have to really, really narrow it down to being feminine and wearing dresses and just being lipstick chic."

"Until they come up with an independent woman who`s on an adventure of her own, I don`t think I`m interested."


"To get out of getting up at 5 in the morning, I`m gonna do Howard Stern next week. This time I`m
ready. I`ve got some good comebacks."

"The more confidence you have in yourself and the more you believe that you are destined to do what you are gonna do, it will happen."

"Jersey is my hometown, and I love it. I`ll probably hav
e houses in other places, but that`s my home, and nobody`s kicking me out of there."

"I don't want people to be like, 'She's hot-looking', you know? I want them to listen to me for what I am saying. And I think the best way to do that i
s to sniff my armpits, and like, sit and burp every now and then."
-Michelle Rodriguez

While some percentage of the population might get excited at the prospect of being physically assaulted by a voluptuous woman, we didn't count ourselves among them. Given Michelle's lovely exotic looks, it's a shame that she is frequently typecast as the gritty tomboy. It didn't help things that Michelle chose to fuse fiction and reality in March of 2002, when she proceeded to repeatedly punch her roommate in the head.

Now we may endorse the likes of Lennox Lewis engaging in beatings, but we're a bit more old-fashioned when it comes to the ladies. There's something distinctly unsexy about seeing a girl pound someone else's face like a hamburger patty. While some may argue that this opinion stems from a fear of having our face served as the hamburger patty, we don't really care to examine our deep-rooted motivations in judging sexiness. Low marks for Michelle in this category.

Having run across an ad for an open casting call and attending her first audition, Rodriguez beat 350 other applicants to win her first role in the low-budget 2000 independent film, Girlfight. Rodriguez's performance as Diana Guzman, a troubled teen who decides to channel her aggression by training to become a boxer, was recognized by both critics and audiences, but despite major industry buzz of a possible Academy Award nomination, she did not receive the Oscar nod. Rodriguez did however accumulate several other significant awards and nominations for the role in independent circles, including major acting accolades from the National Board of Review, Deauville Film Festival, Independent Spirit Awards, Gotham Awards, Las Vegas Film Critics Sierra Awards, and many others. The film itself took home top prizes at both the Sundance and Cannes Film Festivals.

Subsequently, she has had notable roles in other successful movies, including The Fast and the Furious, Resident Evil, Blue Crush, and S.W.A.T. In 2004, Rodriguez lent her voice to the video game Halo 2, playing a Marine. She also provided the voice of Liz Ricarro in the Cartoon Network series IGPX. From 2005 to 2006, she played tough cop Ana Lucia Cortez on the television series Lost during the show's second season (the character's first appearance was a flashback on season 1's finale, Exodus: Part 1), and returned for a cameo in the second episode of the show's fifth season in 2009. In 2006, Rodriguez was featured in her own episode of G4's show Icons.

In 2008 she appeared in Battle in Seattle alongside Charlize Theron. Rodriguez next appears in the latest installment of the The Fast and the Furious franchise, which is entitled simply Fast & Furious, due to hit theaters April 3, 2009. Rodriguez can also be seen in James Cameron's upcoming $200 million sci-fi adventure Avatar, due out December 18, 2009.

She recently wrapped filming on Trópico de Sangre, an independent film she is co-producing with her production company Cheshire Kat Productions, based on the Dominican Republic's historic Mirabal sisters who were assassinated in 1960 by the Dominican dictator for opposing his rule.

Notable rankings
Multiple times over the course of her career, she has been ranked in Stuff magazine’s “102 Sexiest Women In The World”, Maxim’s "100 Sexiest Women" and People En Espanol's "50 Mas Bellos".

Producing
Rodriguez co-founded a production company called Cheshire Kat Productions which is currently producing a historical drama called Trópico de Sangre (Tropic of Blood), in which she also stars.

Writing
Rodriguez is currently writing a screenplay for a family film based on a concept which she describes as "a 2012 story about purity and animals and children".

Angela Michelle "Angie" Harmon

Born on August 10, 1972
Angela Michelle "Angie" Harmon is an American fashion model and television/film actress. She became a well-known model in the 1990s and developed a career as a television star after roles on Baywatch Nights and Law & Order. She most recently starred in ABC's Tuesday evening drama Women's Murder Club.


"I had no intention of coming back to series, but I was 8 1/2 months pregnant when I read this script and just loved it -- maybe because of raging hormones. Every time I get pregnant, my career gets better. I hope I'll have twins next time."

"[on her character`s voluptuousness in Agent Cody Banks (2003)] We had so much stuff in there: shoulder pads and things that look like chicken cutlets. It`s not The Hours (2002), I know - I had prosthetic boobs instead of a prosthetic nose."


"My motto is if you're not happy at home, you're not happy anywhere else, so Jason and our marriage come first. -Angie Harmon


Some football player for the New York Giants has taken her off the market. Somehow, we don't think that'll stop any men from having their courtroom sex fantasies with Angie as the prosecutor.

Harmon worked as a child model and in 1988, won a Seventeen modeling contest. She attended Highland Park High School until 1990 where she was a member of the Highland Belles. She won a Spectrum Model Search contest shortly afterward, subsequently pursuing a successful modeling career and becoming well-known in the early 1990s. She worked as a runway model for Calvin Klein, Giorgio Armani, and Donna Karan and appeared on the covers of ELLE, Cosmopolitan, and Esquire. She is signed to IMG Models in New York City.

Harmon began acting in 1995 after being discovered on a plane by David Hasselhoff. She then starred in several television series, including Baywatch Nights, Baywatch and C-16: FBI; she also appeared in the 1998 film, Lawn Dogs, which received only a limited theatrical release. In the early 2000s, Harmon became better known as playing Abbie Carmichael on the series Law & Order, a role she played from 1998 to 2001. During this time, she also voiced Barbara Gordon in the animated film, Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker, replacing Stockard Channing, as well as appearing on Law & Order.

Harmon left Law & Order to concentrate on her film career, saying that she preferred working in film than television. After appearing in the 2001 direct-to-video film Good Advice, she had a major role in Agent Cody Banks, playing the CIA handler of a teenage agent (Frankie Muniz). The film opened in March 2003 and became a minor hit, grossing $47 million. Although Harmon was originally scheduled to appear in the sequel, the producers chose to take a more comedic approach, and replaced Harmon with Anthony Anderson. In 2006, Harmon co-starred with Cuba Gooding Jr. and James Woods in the direct-to-DVD political suspense drama End Game.

In 2006, Harmon starred as the lead in the ABC pilot Secrets of a Small Town. Despite testing highly with focus groups, the pilot was not picked up by ABC due to its high budget. She also starred in another failed television show on NBC, Inconceivable. The program was canceled after two episodes.

In 2007, she starred in another ABC pilot, Women's Murder Club. The police drama was picked up, but cancelled after the first season with only 13 episodes produced and aired.

In April 2008 Angie Harmon Goes Naked for Allure Magazine is among five actresses who strip down to their birthday suits for the May issue of Allure magazine. She appears nude along with Gabrielle Union; Zoe McLellan (of ABC's "Dirty Sexy Money"); singer and actress Jill Scott; and "Ugly Betty" co-star Ana Ortiz

About preparing herself for the newborn: I was ready for it, I read all the research about it and I was totally prepared for everything, and they totally pulled the rug out from under me (about sibling rivalry)

Cameron Michelle Diaz

Born on August 30, 1972
Cameron Michelle Diaz is an American actress. In August 2008, Forbes Magazine listed Diaz as the highest paid actress in Hollywood. She reportedly earned $50 million in the period of a year ending June 2008, for her roles in What Happens in Vegas and the Shrek films.


"I`m like every other woman: a closet full of clothes, but nothing to wear: So I wear jeans. quoted in Woman`s World 1-3-06"

"Most men
are the same. They're only interested in fucking you and they don't care whether you're happy or sad. They just want to get on with their business in and out of bed, and they make you feel that you don't count except as their sex toy."

"I would kiss a frog even if there were no promise of a Prince Charming popping out of it. I love frogs. I`d lick him."

:People think I`m trying to make a fashion statement because I never wear a bra. It`s really that I`m a tomboy at heart.:


"The last couple of years were hell. Like, I can`t even tell you, it was so hard. I didn`t know how to handle it. But I think I`m in a much better place now, because I stepped away for a second and took a breath. Hollywood is a funny place. It offers so much, but it can also take a lot away from you."


"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."


"We have a voice now and we`re not using it. Women have so much to lose. I mean, we could lose the right to our bodies. If you think rape should be legal then don`t vote. But if you think you have a right to your body and you have a right to say what happens to you and fight off that danger of losing that, then you should vote."


"I didn't realize [The Mask] was a fairly large film that I was a part of. Halfway through I was going, 'Is there any place that my mom and dad can see this film?' and they're going, 'Cameron, at the theaters.' I had no idea. Durrrrrrr. I'm blonde. I'm allowed."

- Cameron Diaz

Cameron Diaz's first role as the sex kitten in The Mask (1996) is the best example of art imitating life that we can think of. Standing at a statuesque 5'9", this long-legged, ab-ripped beauty has the kind of body women strive for and men drool over. Couple that with her sparkling eyes, infectious smile and adorable dimples, and Cameron Diaz is one sexy lady.

At 16, she began her career as a fashion model. Diaz signed with top modeling agency Elite Model Management. After graduating from high school, she went to work in Japan and met video director Carlo de la Torre. On her return to the U.S., she moved in with him. For the next few years, her modeling took her around the world, working for contracts with major companies. She modeled for designers such as Calvin Klein and Levi's. She was featured on the cover of the July 1990 issue of Seventeen magazine.

At 21, Diaz auditioned for The Mask, even though she had no previous acting experience,based on the recommendation of an agent for Elite who met the film's producers while they were searching for the female lead. After obtaining the lead female role, she immediately started acting lessons. Over the next three years, she won roles in low-budget, independent films, such as The Last Supper, Feeling Minnesota, and She's the One, preferring to feel her way effectively into the business. She then regained mainstream success with her roles in My Best Friend's Wedding and There's Something About Mary, a film for which she was nominated for a Golden Globe in the category of Best Actress - Musical or Comedy. She won critical acclaim for her performance in Being John Malkovich, which earned her Best Supporting Actress nominations at the Golden Globes, the BAFTA Awards, and the SAG Awards.

During the 1999-2000 period, Diaz starred in many films, such as Things You Can Tell Just by Looking at Her, A Life Less Ordinary, Any Given Sunday, and the hit adaptation of Charlie's Angels. In 2001, she won nominations for Best Supporting Actress at the Golden Globes, the SAG Awards, and the AFI Awards for Vanilla Sky, and also voiced Princess Fiona in Shrek, for which she earned $10 million. In 2003, Diaz received another Golden Globe nomination for Martin Scorsese's epic Gangs of New York, and became the third actress (after Wedding costar Julia Roberts and Reese Witherspoon) to earn $20 million for a role, receiving the sum for Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle. Her next film appearances were in Shrek 2, In Her Shoes, and The Holiday . During 2004 and early 2005, Diaz explored some of the planet's environmentally unique locations while discovering ways to help preserve them for the 10-episode MTV series Trippin' which featured numerous celebrities and friends of Diaz, such as Jessica Alba, Drew Barrymore, Mark Hoppus, Eva Mendes, and Justin Timberlake.

Diaz returned to the screen for Shrek the Third in 2007, in which she co-starred with her boyfriend Justin Timberlake. She was set to team up again with The Mask co-star Jim Carrey in the film Fun with Dick and Jane, but dropped out to star in In Her Shoes. She also appeared in the romantic comedy What Happens in Vegas, opposite Ashton Kutcher. She will also appear in Shrek 4 and is also set to star in The Box, a horror thriller in 2008 co-starring James Marsden.

On July 7, 2007, Diaz participated at Live Earth in New York by introducing Bon Jovi and The Police. In 2007, People ranked her as the Best Dressed Female Celebrity.

When Diaz was asked if she can speak Spanish she said:

I go, "God, you know, it all sounds so familiar. I know what you're saying, I really do. I just cannot respond to you back in Spanish. I can barely speak English properly." I didn't grow up in a Cuban or Latin community. I grew up in Southern California on the beach, basically. And I'm third generation. I'm of Cuban descent.

In 2004, Maxim ranked this rising beauty as No. 22 in their annual hot 100; she ranked No. 11 in 2005. Finally, in 2006, she was ranked in the top 10 at No. 7.
