The Mask gave Cameron Diaz an ulcer. Now, it’s not that the lovely model was a stranger to the camera. Indeed not. It was the realization, during filming, that her unexpectedly big first role was in a BIG movie, and it didn’t help that she had no training or experience in acting -- no turn as a pre-pubescent Annie or high school Mame.

"The way I feel about music -- any song, any style -- is that there is no right and wrong, only true and false. If the music and lyrics are conceived out of honesty and if the production of the song goes along with its original message, then what has been expressed is art regardless of what anyone's opinion is of it. No one can negate an honest expression. So things are a lot simpler if you just tell the truth." |
