Cameron Diaz’s father dies of pneumonia

April 16th, 2008 // 79 Comments

Cameron Diaz’s father Emilio Diaz passed away this morning after a bout with pneumonia, according to TMZ:

We’re told the 58-year-old Emilio Diaz, a popular resident of Seal Beach, Calif., recently developed the flu which then turned into pneumonia. We hear his death was “shocking” as Emilio was in “terrific health.” Diaz is currently filming her upcoming flick “My Sister’s Keeper.” A source on the set tells us production on the film was shut down today.

My sincere condolences to Cameron Diaz and her family. R.I.P., Emilio, and many thanks for raising a super-fine daughter, who despite my cracks, is one of the few non-A-hole celebs out there. You done good, sir. You done good.

    I”m not really a fan, but I’m sorry to hear anyone lose their father. Especially when he was relatively so young.

    Losing a father at such a young age is devastating. And your sincerity in passing your condolences was actually refreshing.
    R.I.P. Emilio and we should all hope that his family can find peace with his passing.

    Can someone PLEASE repost the numbers and info for those dating sites? I am ready to wage an all-out, non-stop war against these non-English speaking, spamming FUCKS! Even on a thread about an unfortunate death these miserable shitheels are lurking. Mother fuckers….

    My heart goes out to her, we unexpectedly lost my mother-in law a month ago at age 50. It’s going to be very hard to get over for her, but STAY STRONG!

    People please be respectful, even if you don’t like her there is no need to say harsh things at a time like this.

    These dating sites that are being posted are identity theft scams. Do not click on them.

    That being said, sorry about Cameron’s father.

    Uh, okay, look. I’m sorry her dad passed, that’s very sad and all, BUT –

    Cameron Diaz is a TOTAL A-hole celebrity!!!! She thinks she is the sh*t and she refuses to sign autographs for humble fans because she’s so self-absorbed. She totally reminds me of Kirsten Dunst in that way.

    Had to get that off my chest.

    I had to laugh when I read those. “Good for her”? Really? Good for her that her father died? He’s interested in dating wealthy young guys? Really, so not only is he dead and looking to mingle, he’s gay?

    I may have some anger management issues today because I’m pretty ambivalent about Cameron Diaz overall, but I would like to reach through the cable wires, grab these fuckers by the hair, and slam their heads against a table a few hundred times. I hate spammers. Especially ones that are clearly criminals.

    kate, they did the same thing a couple weeks ago with the “anna nicole has been dead for a year” story. that was actually kind of amusing. but damn spammers, wait til his body isn’t warm anymore to start him up on gay dating…

    This sounds just like what happened to my father in December. He was a little under the weather and, unfortunately, didn’t know that it was because his lungs were filling up with fluid. When he changed from “totally functional” to “emergency room time,” it was nearly instantaneous. He was in a coma for a few days and the hospital staff seemed pretty surprised that he survived. He researched it quite a bit after getting out and found that this is apparently a strain of pneumonia that’s spreading around enough to be a minor phenomenon, and just…BAM, kills you dead. Really low survival rate.

    My point is, if it was anything like that, then this happened about as suddenly as possible and had to have been a huge surprise. Total stranger on the Intarwebs sends his condolences.

    It’s sad but to be fair it is kinda her fault. The moment he complained of feeling a chill she should’ve let him climb into her mouth like Luke Skywalker climbing into that dead alien horse thing at the beginning of Empire strikes back.

    wow, that sucks. Its amazing how many people still die of pneumonia and flu related complications in this day and age of modern medicine. I feel for Cameron; it has to be devasating and must have come as a complete shock. 58 is a pretty young age to die at and he looks like he was a healthy and hearty man. But how does superfish know that Cameron is a non-ahole celeb? I don’t get it; usually she shuns the cameras and looks all pissy; not to say that she might not still be a nice person. Man, if I was a celeb I would be the biggest bitch if people followed me around trying to take my pic and harrass me.

    I read that he was recovering, and at one point he woke up in the hospital and saw Cameron smiling down at him. He didn’t last long after that.

    Right before he died, he whispered “Cameron, listen to me, I don’t have long…the secret to good skin is…the secret is…uuughhhhhhnnn” and he was gone.

    memo to #45, don’t forget to pull the serious stick out of your ass when you come here. if you want to hold a candelight vigil and prayer circle and talk to the celebrities “face-to-face” like some fucktards who think celebs actually read these comments do, then by all means team up with Randal for a good ol reach around.

    in reality, most of us don’t actually feel that way or would say such things in public. this site let’s us use that evil voice in the back of our heads to say all the mean shit we are really thinking. it’s therapeutic and avoids evil-shit build up.
