Cameron Diaz Celebrity Top Celebrity Home $10million

It's certainly a far cry from the grotty and smelly swamp where her animated husband Shrek likes to wallow.
But Cameron Diaz knows that his sprawling three-acre Hollywood mansion would definitely suit her Princess Fiona down to the ground.
The actress has just splashed out on this $10million home deep in the heart of Beverly Hills.

And while Cameron, 37, might not claim to be a self-professed Anglophile, it certainly wouldn't look out of place in the English countryside.
The living room, with its wooden beams, gold-plated framed paintings and big comfortable sofas, give off a cosy, cottage feel to the place.
And by coincidence, it doesn't look too unsimilar to the English cottage in The Holiday, the 2006 film Cameron stars in alongside Jude Law, Kate Winslet and Jack Black.

In the film, Cameron's character swaps houses with Kate who ends up in Los Angeles, while Cameron ends up in a cottage in cold, snowy England.
And the reading corner with a view over the private, gated community is a perfect place for Miss Diaz to sit and relax with a lovely cup of tea.
The 5,000 sq ft single storey house comes with an open plan living room that has two seating areas and also includes a dining room.
It has six-and-a-half bathrooms - the half possibly being just a toilet - a detached three bedroom guesthouse, a tennis court and swimming pool with hot tub.
The mansion used to belong to actress Candice Bergen, 64, best known for her role as Carrie Bradshaw's boss at Vogue in Sex and the City, and the female villain in Miss Congeniality.
And Diaz will be surrounded by friends and famous faces when she moves into her bachelorette pad.
Her neighbours included Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban, Jessica Simpson and Madonna's manager Guy Oseary.
Newlyweds Penelope Cruz and Javier Barden also live a stone's throw away after they forked out over $3million for a home in the community.
But Cameron, who is believed to be dating baseball star Alex Rodriguez, may not be making it a permanent move as she also owns a $1.35million home not to far away behind the Chateau Marmont Hotel.

Not that she has even had time to get settled in yet, having been jetting around the world on a promotional tour for her new film.
Cameron is currently starring in Knight and Day alongside Tom Cruise and the co-stars have been to Brazil and Mexico so far for the movie's premieres.
