She is one of the most beautiful women in Hollywood.
She is also one of the few who manages to be funny AND sexy, often at the same time.
Diaz is back on UK TV screens this weekend in Shrek. Playing a green ogre is probably not her hottest role (although, each to their own) but probably even Princess Fiona sunbathing in the swamp would turn a few heads.
For more classic views of the blonde bombshell we’ve roundest up some of her sexiest celluloid moments.

Diaz displayed her ability to be red hot, hilarious and utterly unlike any other female sex symbol in 2002’s all-girl comedy The Sweetest Thing.
Alongside Selma Blair and Christina Applegate, she played a gorgeous girl who doesn’t play by any of the girlish rules.
From a provocative scene masturbating to simulating oral sex for a passing biker, it is one of her most outrageous roles.
Many teenagers probably wished they had a schoolmistress like Diaz.
Her shocking turn in 2011’s Bad Teacher with Justin Timberlake may not have raised educational standards anywhere, but she showed how to raise buckets of cash in the memorable car-wash scene.
The blonde bombshell also raised temperatures in the panned Ridley Scott 2013 thriller The Counselor, when she provoked and teased a noticably flushed Penelope Cruz after a naked swim.
Sex Tape really is, as the name suggests, a film about making a sex tape.
Diaz and Jason Segel play a couple who used to be unable to keep their hands off each other – as the compilation above shows. After marriage and children inhibits their fun, they make the explicit home movie to liven up their marriage – but it goes missing.
Unusually for Hollywood, it’s not their fault. After all, entire celebrity careers have been launched in exactly this way…
