Cameron Diaz, whose father died of pneumonia two weeks ago, has written a letter to her fans thanking them for their support. She gave the handwritten letter to her friend and co-star Ashton Kutcher, and he read it out at a press junket for the pair’s movie What Happens In Vegas. This is what it said:
First of all, I want to thank all of you for your support over the years. So many films, so many weekends discussing films. I was really looking forward to this weekend getting to talk to my friends about a film that I am so proud of. Due to the loss of my father, I have chosen to be with my family this weekend. But it was important for me to convey to all of you how much I love this film. We really did have the best time, most fun and laughs making it. I know that the stories Ashton, Rob [Corddry] and [Director] Tom [Vaughan] share with you will illustrate that point. I was fortunate to work with a group of truly gifted individuals that share the common denominator of a generous heart and wickedly sick sense of humor. This weekend I am screening What Happens in Vegas for my family. It was a unanimous decision that we all needed to share a good laugh. After all, that's why we make films like these. So people can leave behind their worries for a couple of hours. Have a good laugh. I picture all of your smiles and it makes me happy. Thank you for your continued support. It is much appreciated.
Cameron.
