Hollywood actress Cameron Diaz has opened up on her decision to quit acting.
The 48-year-old starred in a slew of hit Hollywood movies including There’s Something About Mary, The Mask and Charlie’s Angels – then in 2018 she announced she was quitting acting and has kept a pretty low profile ever since.
In a recent, and rare, interview, Diaz revealed that she made the decision so she could concentrate on other parts of her life.
Speaking to actor Kevin Hart on his talk show, Hart to Heart, she explained: “When you do something at a really high level for a long period of time, when you’re the person that is delivering one thing, you’re the person on the screen, all parts of you that isn’t that has to sort of be handed off to other people.”
She went on to say there were many other aspects of her life, including everything from finance to her home, that she ‘wasn’t touching’ or ‘wasn’t managing’.

The star added: “It’s fun to do, I love acting. I could go forever. I literally feel like I have unlimited energy and inertia.
“I just looked around and there were so many parts of my life that I wasn’t touching and that I wasn’t managing, and I couldn’t really manage, because everything was so massive.”
Diaz said this feeling prompted her to reassess her life.
“For me, I just really wanted to make my life manageable by me,” she said.
“My routine in a day is literally what I can manage to do by myself.
“It’s the best feeling, I feel whole.”
