Cameron Diaz Lends Celebrity Shine to Modern Acupuncture - Article by Franchise Times
The man who arranged 50 Cent’s equity investment in Vitamin Water and Madonna’s deal with Vita Coco, Seth Rodsky and his firm Strand Equity, have bought a stake in Modern Acupuncture and brought actress Cameron Diaz into the deal, too.
