London, May 17: Hollywood A-lister Cameron Diaz`s new movie, `My Sister`s Keeper` took a toll on her emotionally as the actress suffered from pneumonia which halted the film`s production."I think, emotionally it definitely took its toll," Diaz was quoted telling Vogue magazine.
Though production briefly shut down, the 36-year-old actress being a professional returned to filming after taking a short break to recover. "It`s the human experience," she says of having to deal with loss referring to her father`s death. "You know, that`s what the heart does. Things are given to us, and things are taken away. And I think the heart becomes stronger, more capable." The actress claimed that loss strengthened her and pushed her to think outside the box. "People who put labels on themselves limit themselves. If you are a woman who`s been labeled as a sex symbol, for instance – I mean, I am not saying that`s the label people would apply to me. But if you see yourself that way, inevitably you get to a point when you are no longer a sex symbol," Diaz said. "And if you can`t move past that, you`re putting a limit on yourself; you`re arresting your development. And that`s where I think a lot of women get in trouble," she added. Bureau Report
