Cameron Diaz Sparks Concern Over Hollywood Return

BBG News

Cameron Diaz was spotted with her baby son Cardinal leaving a restaurant in Santa Barbara, California.

52-year-old actress Lucy Liu was stylishly dressed in a black shirt and wide-leg trousers, while she held her son on her hip.

A grey, floor-length coat protected her from the unseasonably cold weather in Southern California.

Apart from their nearly one-year-old Cardinal, Cameron is also a parent, along with her husband Benji Madden (aged 45), to a five-year-old daughter named Raddix.

The two stars usually keep a low profile with their kids away from the spotlight.

Cameron and Benji – who wed in 2015 – were last spotted out together in Montecito in early January.

Last spring, Benji announced on Instagram that their family had grown from three to four with the arrival of their second baby.

We are thrilled and delighted to share the news of the birth of our son, Cardinal Madden,” the popular rock star from Good Charlotte wrote alongside the well-known actress.

And the famously private star added, ‘He is awesome and We are all so happy he is here! For the kids safety and privacy we won’t be posting any pictures – but he’s a really cute.’

The message went on saying, ‘We’re overwhelmed with gratitude and blessings. Wishing you all the love from our family to yours ❤️ Have a wonderful afternoon!!⚡️’

Cameron has recently fueled rumors she will quit Hollywood again for an ‘extreme’ reason.

The Holiday actress, 52, officially retired from Hollywood in 2018, four years after starring in Annie.

She has made her big screen comeback with Netflix thriller, Back In Action, in which she stars in with close friend Jamie Foxx.

In response to her recent remarks on the objectification of women in the film industry, there has been growing speculation that she might quit Hollywood again.

Speaking to Charlie’s Angels co-star Demi Moore about Oscar nominated The Substance, she said: ‘All women, we are conditioned to be objectified. Period. Whether we are movie stars or not, it’s just every woman.

‘Obviously it’s more extreme in our circumstances because we’re projected onto a screen and literally objectified. We’ve had dolls made out of us. It’s just so innate. It’s so ingrained in us. We bow down to that. We serve that objectification. We try to meet its request in so many ways

‘In watching you give this performance, you don’t have to ask anybody’s permission. It’s as if there was a constitution written in the film industry that laid out what the film industry was, and everybody has been abiding by it for the last however many decades. Y’all went in and just shredded it to pieces and said, I do not agree with this constitution.

I will be the one doing the rewrite, and I plan to approach it with an unconventional, extreme, even wildly imaginative style.

A showbiz commenter told RadarOnline: ‘Cam has only just returned to the movie treadmill and already she’s blasting the system.

It seems as if she could use a good rest again, maybe this one will be long-term. Doesn’t she appear discontented with the way Hollywood continues to produce films?

Diaz was enticed back to film by Foxx and appearing on The Graham Norton Show earlier this month said: ‘I had 10 years of not paying attention to anything; not accepting any advances, and then I got this script and thought that maybe it was time. 

‘If I was going to leave my family for 10 hours a day I wanted to do it with the most talented man in the entertainment business.’

Expressing her gratitude to still work in the industry she added: ‘It is a privilege to make films, and we are all so lucky to do what we do. That the door was even open for me after a decade was amazing. 

‘I loved those 10 years for me and my family, but I thought, “If I let this go away, if I don’t engage again, and if I don’t give it chance, I am a fool.” It might be the beginning of something, but its here now and I am grateful for it.’

Cameron famously walked away from Hollywood in 2018 to spend more time with her rocker husband Benji Madden, 45.

The two welcomed their daughter Raddix in December 2019, followed by son Cardinal born in March 2024.
