21 Celebrities Who Quit Smoking

18. Cameron Diaz

The star of The Mask, There’s Something About Mary, The Other Woman and Sex Tape today may be one of the fittest, healthiest and hottest women in showbiz, but there was a time she was not so health-conscious and smoked up to one pack of cigarettes a day. Cameron Diaz started smoking in her early 20s, like most smokers do. She briefly quit while training for her role in Charlie’s Angels but started again in her 30s.

Diaz was a pretty heavy smoker, by her own admission. She would smoke up to 20 roll-your-own cigarettes a day. What finally made her quit, she says, were her parents, who disapproved of her habit, saying it was setting a bad example, not to mention killing her. They basically guilt-tripped her into quitting, and they must have done a good job, since Diaz quit using only her willpower, not yoga, not patches or gum, not hypnotherapy.
