That appearance in france the other day is so weird. Is it actually possible it’s an impersonator? It sure seems like an impersonator.

Is he putting on some sort of act to prove a point?

I have seen theories as wild as they killed him and replaced him with a lookalike for the nasty things he’s said about hollywood/the elite/illuminati lol.

His speech in France: https://youtu.be/cLQmKyQAplg

When he claimed he is a whistleblower and why some say they killed him: https://youtu.be/eG9i7d8yfKQ

An appearance from 3 months ago, the last time some say we saw “the real Jim Carrey” : https://youtu.be/puZLQwvYABQ

    I think you have it backwards. The Jim Carrey that Inducted Soundgarden into the RnR Hall of Fame isn’t the real one, or rather, it’s his stage persona. The Jim Carrey that accepted the César award is the real one… he was tearing up and just being present and whole. I don’t really understand French, but to me it seemed like he was genuinely happy and grateful to accept the award as opposed to ‘You’re paying me to do this so I’ll do it.’

    Someone sort of translated his speech here, or at least the gist of it ig:

    His 2014 appearance was weird, but I think he was dealing with a lot of mental stress that he wasn’t able to effectively deal with. His speech at the César Awards was not weird and I don’t know why you think it is.

    Who is “some” thay are saying these things? Is it people who make a living off of engagement? And here you are, engaging wholeheartedly, and seeking others to engage? Weird feedback loop.

    of course he’s an impersonator. Jim Carrey has long been famous as a skilled impressionist.

  • I don’t know what you’re on about. I watched the speech in france with auto-translation on, and it was a lovely speech given in a language he is clearly not fluent in. He’s 64 years old, and looks fine for his age. It doesn’t look like he’s had tons of plastic surgery, though maybe his eyes done? He’s a little heavier than when he was young, which isn’t surprising.

    Based on the article shared by another comment, it’s really just hairstyle change, he looks the same if you look at the picture back to back.

    Set yourself up with a spreadsheet, and spend some time filling it in with the following exercise: What in the flying fuck would this cost, and is it worth it?

    How many people would you have to involve? What would be their salaries? What is the risk of someone leaking multiplied by the number of people? How much time would they need each day or week to keep it up? Who would organize it? From where? How much communication would you everyone involved need to keep up constantly to coordinate? For how long?

    Logistics. Do people need drivers? Prosthetics suppliers? Costume researchers? Logopedists? Psychologists? Enforcers? Medical experts? Medicall staff?

      “Sometimes he talks about moving to another island – maybe somewhere in Europe, like Greece, the Balearic Islands, or somewhere in the Mediterranean – just to be even more isolated and anonymous,” they said.

    After watching the video, you might be on to something. He seems to be muttering in some incomprehensible dead language.

  • Age and IIRC he also went vegan. If he’s not really comitted to the veganism, he could be lacking essential vitamins.

    I keep seeing these conspiracy memes and I don’t see anything other than an older version of the same man.
