Cameron Diaz on why she hit "pause" on acting – and how it involved wine

When the blockbuster comedy "The Mask" hit theaters in 1994, Cameron Diaz – just 21 at the time – became one of Hollywood's most sought-after actresses. Leading roles in every genre soon followed. But in 2014, after 20 years and 40 memorable roles — in such films as "There's Something About Mary," "Charlie's Angels," "Being John Malkovich" and "The Holiday" — Diaz made the decision to hit "pause" on acting, at a time when she was the highest-paid actress over 40.

"CBS Saturday Morning" co-host Dana Jacobson asked Diaz, "At the top of your game, you leave your career. Why did you leave it behind?"

"When you're doing something that you know and you've done well and you know how it works and it's consumed your whole life for so long, it's kind of a nice thing to kind of go, 'You know what? Let me just step back for a second, take a look at what the whole picture looks like for me, and what are the things that I could do better and be more engaged with that would make me feel more whole?' And I did that."
