Travis Scott & Tyler, The Creator Honored as GOAT Rappers by a Surprising Celebrity Fan
Travis Scott and Tyler, The Creator have no shortage of admirers, but their latest fan, actress Cameron Diaz, might just be the most unexpected yet. The Hollywood star recently revealed her admiration for the two rappers during an interview with Complex alongside Jamie Foxx, as the pair promoted their new film, Back in Action.
When asked about her favorite rapper, Diaz paused thoughtfully before confidently responding, “Tyler.”
Foxx, always ready with a quick quip, added some humor to the moment by sharing a personal anecdote:
“I met Tyler, The Creator at a restaurant. I didn’t know he was that tall.”
Diaz playfully responded, “Oh, is he taller than you thought?” prompting Foxx to joke, “That dude is about 6’2” and built like a linebacker.”
The exchange didn’t end there. Diaz enthusiastically named another favorite: “I also like Travis Scott. He’s just next-level. I didn’t realize he was doing such profound, artistic stuff—it’s mind-blowing.”
Foxx, not one to be left out, named JAY-Z as his pick and even treated the audience to a hilarious imitation of the rap legend’s signature style.
Presidential Approval for Travis Scott
It’s not just Cameron Diaz who’s singing Travis Scott’s praises. The rapper has even garnered recognition from former President Barack Obama.

Obama’s endorsement serves as yet another testament to Scott’s far-reaching influence, which continues to bridge the worlds of music, art, and culture.
