Vernon Kay has shared a throwback snap of himself alongside Cameron Diaz and Lucy Liu at the London premiere of Charlie’s Angels: Full Throttle in 2003.
The TV presenter, 50, was feeling nostalgic as he prepared to interview Cameron and her co-star Jamie Foxx on Radio 2 for their new film Back In Action.
Vernon hosted the premiere for the blockbuster film which starred Cameron, Lucy and Drew Barrymore as a group of crime fighting secret agents.
It served as a sequel to the first film released in 2000 which itself was based on the Charlie’s Angels TV show from the 1970s.
Vernon wore a pinstripe suit for the premiere and joked he looked like David Dickinson given his strong tan.

It comes after Cameron revealed why she decided to return to acting after a decade long hiatus.
The Holiday actress officially retired from Hollywood in 2018 and her last film was Annie in 2014.
However she has been lured back by her close friend Jamie Foxx to star alongside him in the pair’s latest action comedy.
Appearing on the upcoming episode of The Graham Norton Show on Friday, Cameron gushed: ‘I am back all thanks to Jamie’ as she admitted she would have been a ‘fool’ not to enter back into the industry.
The star explained: ‘I had 10 years of not paying attention to anything; not accepting any advances, and then I got this script and thought that maybe it was time.
‘If I was going to leave my family for 10 hours a day I wanted to do it with the most talented man in the entertainment business.’
Expressing her graтιтude to still work in the industry she added: ‘It is a privilege to make films, and we are all so lucky to do what we do. That the door was even open for me after a decade was amazing.
‘I loved those 10 years for me and my family, but I thought, “If I let this go away, if I don’t engage again, and if I don’t give it chance, I am a fool.” It might be the beginning of something, but its here now and I am grateful for it.’

Cameron famously walked away from Hollywood in 2018 to spend more time with her rocker husband Benji Madden, 45.
The two welcomed their daughter in December 2019 and have been incredibly private about their lives as parents to their three-year-old.
Cameron and Jamie are starring in Back In Action which is set for release on Netflix on January 17.
Though she’s kept a low profile, Cameron made a splash in 2019 when she joined Drew Barrymore and Demi Moore to celebrate Lucy Liu’s star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame—marking her last red carpet appearance until now.
The new action comedy, directed by Seth Gordon, 48, serves as a comeback for both Jamie and Cameron as Jamie suffered a stroke in 2023.
