In January 2021, photographs of former movie actor Cameron Diaz appeared in a misleading online advertisement. The ad hinted at a fall from grace: Once a Hollywood Legend, Now Working a Regular Job. Readers who clicked the ad were led to a 39-page slideshow article on the website Loan Pride. Its headline read, Former Stars Who Now Work a Regular 9-5 Job. The pictures from the ad did not show Cameron Diaz now working a regular 9-5 job. US Weekly reported that the photographs simply showed her leaving a friend's home. Further, she does not work a 9-to-5 job at all. She appeared on page 39, the final page of the misleading story: Her work as an author wasn't her only pursuit after leaving acting. In July 2020, the San Francisco Chronicle reported that she and her friend Katherine Power launched a clean wine company called Avaline. The Chronicle also said she spent the last decade building herself into a lifestyle and wellness guru. In August 2020, Good Morning America reported that Diaz walked away from her movie career so she could find peace. In sum, Diaz is now retired from acting. Pictures in an ad did not show her working a regular 9-5 job. She also didn't have such a day job to begin with. She is an author, started a wine brand, and has a family. In December 2019, she and her husband, musician Benji Madden, welcomed a baby daughter. We previously reported on a similar misleading story about former child actor Amanda Bynes.
