Cameron Diaz was just 21 years old when she walked the red carpet at the Cannes Film Festival in 1994.
It would be months before the world knew her as Tina Carlyle in “The Mask”, with that luminous skin and the smile that would make her one of the most photographed faces of the nineties.
Now, 32 years later, as she turns 54, TMZ dusted off that photo and placed it next to a recent image of the actress on another red carpet.
The question accompanying the comparison is the same one repeated every time a celebrity ages in front of the cameras: Good genes or good doctors? Although Cameron has not confirmed any surgical procedure…
All it takes is seeing the two photos, side by side, separated by three decades, for anyone to find themselves staring a little too long, looking for what has changed and what hasn’t.
