As a result of Cameron Diaz's father's untimely death, she opted out of press junkets and premieres in order to spend time with her family. Cam did however take a little time to write a note to the fans and media who no doubt missed her at all the events. Here's what she had to say:
"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.
HEART Cameron."
