Cameron said in his interview with the magazine back in 2018, that even though he loved acting there was always a dark side to fame that he had to deal with.

“For about a year of my life, if I didn't have to leave my house, I wouldn't.

"It was a bad way of dealing with fame, but it’s a scary feeling to know that everybody is looking at you all the time."

Cameron spent a lot of his time giving back, raising thousands for charities after turning to philanthropy to make the world a better place.

More recently the actor gushed about how happy his life was in a poignant magazine interview.

"Speaking with a lot of artists, one of the things all of us have in common is we're all our own biggest critics," he told Haute Living in May.

"I find comfort in that. I know that everyone else sees my work in a light differently than how I see it.

'They're not picking apart every little habit and twitch and imperfection nearly as thoroughly as I am. So often times naysayers aren't as hard on me as myself. It also helps when you can decipher a naysayer and a hater. A hater should always be white noise."
