CAMERON DIAZ - DIAZ UNDER FIRE FOR 'SPASTIC' COMMENT

Screen beauty CAMERON DIAZ has been accused of encouraging 'disabilism' after referring to her awkward childhood physique as 'spastic'.

The CHARLIE'S ANGELS star infuriated UK disability charity Scope (formerly called The Spastic Society) - who help people suffering cerebral palsy - with her inadvertent insult, and they have warned her to watch her words.

A spokesperson for Scope says, "We are keen to remind Cameron Diaz that, as a role model, she should watch her language.

"Likening her 'wild days' to acting like a 'spastic' is extremely offensive to people with cerebral palsy and perpetuates negative assumptions about disabled people."
