	For the role of one of her fellow Angels, Barrymore called upon her good friend Cameron Diaz. Not unlike the character of Natalie, Barrymore says, "Cameron is effervescent and optimistic and has a great strength and stability to her. She is one of the most real people I have met in my life." "Cameron is a wonderful actress because she is very truthful," says Goldberg. "When there is a close-up on her face, you can look into her eyes and see into her soul. That's what makes a movie star." With a Golden Globe nomination for her performances in There's Something About Mary (1998) and another Golden Globe nomination for her daring performance in Being John Malkovich (1999), the actress has been much in demand. "It was Drew's relationship with Cameron that got her interested," admits Goldberg. Though Goldberg recalls that Diaz had expressed interest in doing an action-adventure film, Diaz herself says the ultimate impetus was Drew Barrymore. "I wanted to do it," says Diaz, "because Drew Barrymore is the best saleswoman in the entire world. If you want somebody to buy your product, get Drew to taste it, wear it, use it... If she likes it, you're sold." Recalls Diaz of her first conversation with Barrymore: "I was in my car and got a message that Drew wanted to talk to me. I called her back, and we talked for almost two hours until the battery on my phone ran out. She said, 'It's going to be a chick action movie. We get to be beautiful and tough, and we get to wear bad-ass clothes. We won't have guns, and we get to do kung-fu. In this movie, it's the girls that are going to kick ass.'" From that point forward, Diaz says, the momentum was unstoppable.
