Diaz addresses false claims about Jamie Foxx’s conduct on set of Back in Action.

Cameron Diaz has responded to circulating rumors that suggested she quit acting due to Jamie Foxx’s behavior on the set of their film Back in Action. In an interview on Molly Sims’ podcast, the actress expressed frustration over the unfounded claims and clarified that her decision to step away from the spotlight had nothing to do with Foxx’s alleged on-set meltdown.

The 51-year-old actress strongly denied suggestions that Foxx’s actions led to her departure from acting, stating that the set had not been troubled by his behavior. Diaz praised Foxx’s talent and character, explaining that despite some challenges on set, including his unexpected hospitalization for several weeks, these events had no bearing on her decision to take a break from the industry.

Diaz’s comments come after media speculation, which she was quick to dispel, reinforcing that the rumors were not only inaccurate but also damaging to the reputations of both herself and her co-star.
