This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.
This article says it’s likely fillers and not radical cosmetic surgery: https://radaronline.com/p/jim-carrey-plastic-surgery-unrecognizable-new-face-explained/
It's just like kristin wiig... she hosted snl and i genuinely didn't recognize her. She also just didn't have the same over the top facial expressions, was sad to watch
got advice from jenny McCarthy.
repulsive, typical American fakiness
He's Canadian.
He was Canadian. He moved to the US and has been a US citizen since 2004. About the time he started acting batshit and giving STIs to half the women in LA.
Still?
Canada is America, North America to be precise
But the influence and trending data comes from America?
If that's the same person, they had shit ton of dental work done, because the angles are different
They got to him. Big Face Filler got to him! If they can get to Jim, what hope is there?!
For a guy whos schtick was the elastic face impressions, this seems like a not so wise move, but to each their own...
Tragic. Why don't famous people realise how much better it looks to age naturally?
Because Hollywood will shut you out if you age.
"Hollywood" is on it's way out after the big heyday of the last 100 years or so. Everyone has a movie studio in their pocket nowadays and distribution is way easier than it used to be. So age naturally. There are other places to jump and prance than hollywood.
its hollywood inner circle requirement. you must look 20years younger even if you dont look human anymore.
the ISAIP people, rob and kaitlyn was so drastic, and they are pretty desperate to stay in hollywood inner circles. rob even started collabing with semi- questionable people, ryan reynolds who himself had plastic surgery.
Nothing says glamour like rich old people badly failing to reclaim their youth. I wish Hollywood would hurry up and die.
I'm going to play a little devil's advocate, not about the "if they should" but more about how they end up looking unrecognizable.
I used to be very athletic. Then I got very heavy. Then I went back to athletic, but when I did so I ended up with the Mitch McConnell turkey neck. It was fugly, I'm not going to lie, and it bothered me. I'm also opposed to plastic surgery so I figured that's the way it was going to be. Then I got cancer in my neck. After they cut out the tumor and all other affected tissue, they had to do a bit of reconstruction. Out went the cancer along with the turkey neck and my jaw line is looking like a million bucks. I'm hot again baby!
And that's the problem. I can see somebody having a positive first experience with reconstructive surgery and assuming that more of it will make it more better. You feel better about yourself and suddenly believe that you can feel better still. You'd be wrong, but I get why you would think that.
unlike mcconnel you dont suck souls to stay a lich permanently.
try to get cancer to look better. got it
Thanks for the nuanced perspective. What a journey though, you don't often hear about the silver linings of cancer treatment.
It is such a trap though, crazy to imagine not seeing it.
Chat, is this real?
Nope
so the image supplied by OP has my AI senses tingling, at least the part on the right.
something is off about the glow of the skin and the hairline.
when searching for the whole image in tineye it does find a lot of instances of the left image.
when searching for only the right image it doesn’t find any.
while this does not mean a conclusive and definite indication that this is AI, i’m nevertheless doubtful.
so, @ickplant@lemmy.world , where did you find that image?
i feel that while his transformation of his iconic face is already ruinous enough, why would we have to go one step further and display AI altered results?!
This picture was from the Cesar Awards, which is a film awards thing in France held a few days ago. It's definitely not AI
thanks a lot, that information was very valuable for the hunt of truth! so at the César award the pictures taken of him are definitely surprising as his normal face is hardly to be recognized:
let’s focus on the last picture: we can see in the background the writing of the award’s ceremony and a screen with a person on it, the subject at hand is wearing a black shirt with a black bow tie.
now we’ve got the same image composition of the last one (greenish background, screen with person in the back, head tilt) but he’s no longer wearing a bow tie but a turtle neck. also his eye colour has changed. so these last images are quite safe to be assumed as AI slop.
this takes us back to the beginning, in the photo composition of this submission Jim Carrey is also wearing a turtle neck, so i think we can also assume by extension that it is part of the same AI slop generated series of images.
@paranoid@lemmy.world for somebody with that handle, i would have assumed more skepticism ;)
I got it off a post by a caricaturist, so if it’s AI, it could be him generating it but I doubt it. He probably grabbed it from someone else. Here is the image I cropped:
Doesn’t look bad per-se, but he definitely doesn’t look like the Jim Carrey everyone pictures in their head anymore. In fact I would 100% not be able to tell you who the person in that second picture is.
I wonder how much this gimps his iconic ability to crazily distort his face.
Found a recent picture of him and he is indeed unrecognizable:
looks a lot like old Val Kilmer
This is from the same day and it looks much less jarring. Lighting really makes a difference.

I genuinely wouldn't recognise him...
Still pretty gross imo. Like, why?
Jim Scary
Guy on the left: Jim Carrey. Guy on the right: James Carrey
I'm not sure it's the real Jim Carrey!
In the 2nd one he looks like Agent Cooper's tulpa in the Twin Peaks reboot, down to the glassy black eyes.
Edit: I'm not entirely sure it's not!
Thanks, I hate it. Someone tint his face green because it's very Mask like now.
I don't see why he'd have anything done, he naturally looked pretty alright even for his age. Oh well, his choice.. 🤷
probably got advice from JENNY, who had a ton of work done.
