'Happy Birthday to one of the greatest people I know': Gwyneth Paltrow celebrates Cameron Diaz's 51st in style

Birthday Love and Tresses to Impress

"Pictured: Two Hollywood heavyweights, but one could swear they're siblings!" That was the vibe when Paltrow shared a luminous outdoor selfie with Diaz. Both flaunting their blonde locks and dressed in matching navy tops, fans couldn't help but point out their uncanny resemblance. "Wow, this is lovely! Sister in life," a fan gushed. Another echoed the sentiment, saying the two appeared to be sisters from another mister.

A Bond Beyond the Silver Screen

Their friendship isn't just another Hollywood flash in the pan; it has depth and history. As reported by People, back in a 2012 chit-chat with Harper’s Bazaar U.K., the 'Charlie's Angels' gem opened up about the roots of their bond. Tracing back to 2008, post the passing of Diaz's father, "She reached out after my dad’s death,” Diaz recalled. “It was very sweet. We bonded on that.” Gwyneth, having lost her father in 2002, understood the heartbreak all too well.

But it's not just heartaches they've shared; it's moments of joy, milestones, and, apparently, even wedding planning! When Paltrow decided to walk down the aisle with TV maestro Brad Falchuk in 2018, Diaz was right there, brimming with excitement, lending support, and even some insider wedding planning tips. After all, who better than Diaz who'd successfully managed to keep her own nuptials under wraps?

Paltrow's Instagram isn't just about occasional BFF shoutouts; it's a treasure trove of their shared memories. Rewind to 2017, and you'll find another birthday ode from Paltrow to Diaz. “Your wisdom, humor, loyalty, cooking skills, guffaws, and ice cubes in rose get me through my life. I adore you with all my ❤️" she wrote. But the real zinger? Diaz teaching Paltrow, the lifestyle queen, the simple art of a hair blowout! “She’s like, ‘I can do that!’ I was like, ‘Of course you can! It’s easy,'" Diaz recounted their playful exchange during a Sirius XM’s Radio Andy interview.

The list of their shared moments is endless. For Diaz's 44th, the festivities saw a delightful melange of close friends and loved ones, including Paltrow and Falchuk, converging at the New School of Cooking in Culver City, California.
