 One of the truly great film moments from late '90's: Cameron Diaz pulling off the gross-out "hair-gel" scene in There's Something About Mary. The model-turned-actress proved she could laugh at herself and needn't rely on her beauty looks.
Diaz's work runs the gamut from action flicks (Charlie's Angel's) to more serious fare (Gangs of New York) and even animation (Shrek), helping her become one of Hollywood's most powerful and highest-paid actresses. As for her personal life, the blonde beauty stayed busy offscreen, dating Matt Dillon, Justin Timberlake and Yankees slugger Alex Rodriguez.
