She wouldn't be Latina she would be Hispanic.
Latinas have ancestor from Latin America.
Hispanics are from Cuba, P.R., and D.R.

Cameron Diaz looks white, but Jenifer Lopez looks hispanic. That is my theory anyway.
And for everybody to know, hispanics are the ones that speak Spanish, Latinos everybody from Mexico all the way to Chile. What is the difference you would ask? well, there are parts in America where people don't speak spanish, for example Brasil, they speak portuguese, Belize, they speak english. I am from Guatemala, I Speak spanish, you can call me latino or hispanic, but somebody from Brazil is only a Latino.

Probably because she doesn't present herself as a Latina or Hispanic actress.

Maybe she doesn't care about labels and pigeonholed into certain roles.
You mention JLo. Do you notice all of her leading men are white? What does that mean???

Probally because Cameron Diaz is NOT Latina OR Hispanic. She's American! Born in San Diego, CALIFORNIA!
Then again, J LO was born in the Bronx, so she's American too!

Maybe because she did not list herself as such when filling out the SAG application.

because she has never shown that she speaks spanish or done any spanish speaking roles, in my opinion
