Tragic. Why don't famous people realise how much better it looks to age naturally?
post
For a guy whos schtick was the elastic face impressions, this seems like a not so wise move, but to each their own...

I'm not sure it's the real Jim Carrey!
They clearly killed him and replaced him
Doesnβt look bad per-se, but he definitely doesnβt 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.
To be fair, the one on the left is probably from years ago. His face immediately before the fillers on the right was much older than the one on the left. Putting those two side-by-side isnβt exactly an honest before-and-after photo.
Here he is in 2020. He had the surgery sometime 2023 or so, or at least, all the pictures I find post sonic 2 have way different cheeckbones. Also, the news articles about this most recent change say he got his previous stuff touched up (for the worse as seen in OPs post.)
Nope. He looks too different from his original face for this to have been a good idea. Good plastic surgery hides flaws and itself. This surgery didn't hide nearly enough to be worth the changes he went through. Sucks for him, for sure.
Here's one from last year: https://i.dailymail.co.uk/1s/2024/12/17/04/93219555-0-image-a-128_1734408756840.jpg
It's different lighting, different facial expression, different angle and 20 years different. Plus the right image is touched with AI.
I just don't see the big deal. Every has inflammation. It's a known thing with age. Does he look different? Absolutely. It could be aging as much as fillers. He doesn't look that different to me.
Thanks, I hate it. Someone tint his face green because it's very Mask like now.
That's more than filler, you can see his eyes are stretched up a bit. Most likely a face lift of some sort. Scar line could be somewhere above the hairline.
They got to him. Big Face Filler got to him! If they can get to Jim, what hope is there?!
Chat, is this real?
Found a recent picture of him and he is indeed unrecognizable:

This is from the same day and it looks much less jarring. Lighting really makes a difference.

vaccines?: ewww
filler?: more please
I don't see why he'd have anything done, he naturally looked pretty alright even for his age. Oh well, his choice.. π€·
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 doesnβt find any.

while this does not mean a conclusive and definite indication that this is AI, iβm 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?!
I got it off a post by a caricaturist, so if itβs AI, it could be him generating it but I doubt it. He probably grabbed it from someone else. Here is the image I cropped:

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 CΓ©sar award the pictures taken of him are definitely surprising as his normal face is hardly to be recognized:




letβs focus on the last picture: we can see in the background the writing of the awardβs ceremony and a screen with a person on it, the subject at hand is wearing a black shirt with a black bow tie.

now weβve got the same image composition of the last one (greenish background, screen with person in the back, head tilt) but heβs 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 approach everything with a healthy amount of skepticism, and alter my stance when presented with evidence.
If you look up "jim carrey cesar awards speech" on your search engine of choice, you'll see tons of articles about his changed appearance, and can even find his acceptance speech where he does his best speaking French. There was even an article published in the last few hours where he confirmed it was him and not a body double.
There is no AI or AI slop. But there are changes in lighting and angles, which can have a massive effect on appearances.
You're right. It's absolutely been breathed on by AI. You can see it in the hair, it looks perfect / unnatural.
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
Left: silver fox aging well
Right: Fox News pundit
It's the eyes. He doesn't look like himself anymore. This was a mistake, if he did it to get more work. He looks like a generic background character.
Reminds me of Jennifer Grey, how she blew her entire career by getting a nose job after being cast as the love interest for Patrick Swayze in Dirty Dancing.
If that's the same person, they had shit ton of dental work done, because the angles are different
He doesn't even look like Jim Carrey now. At no point in his life did he look like that.
This is an actor who is most known for the elasticity of his face. π€
If I were to judge him solely on his looks and nothing else I know about him, the before is way better looking. His unique smile and deceptively kind eyes are way more attractive than...whatever that is he did.
Botox is a fucking epidemic, I have 30yo friends using it and destroying their face even before getting old.
I have a love hate relationship with getting older. I wish I could look like my prime but there is kinda a niceness with the sorta deep rich look of age. Overall I don't get these cosmetic things because they are just that. cosmetic. Would be great to have something to actually make me more capable.
Yeah there's definitely a certain facial quality you can only get with natural aging that can look quite good on its own. Not that anyone should feel the need to look good or alter their appearance unless they desire to, but that they should not be afraid of looking old.
He doesn't look younger. But he no longer looks human. As long as he's happy I guess
Now, if Jim ever needs a stunt double, he can hire Steve Paikin, former host of the news discussion show "The Agenda" in Ontario, Canada.

Bruce Carrey.
I get it, aging sucks, I'm staring down the barrel of 40, and that's just the beginning of the downward trajectory, but I will never philosophically agree with surgical or chemical intervention for aging.
It is vanity and insecurity masking as self expression.
What's wrong with vanity? Is this a seven deadly sin kind of thing? Psychologically, there isn't anything bad about being vain, it's a religious problem, ain't it?
No, it's a problem with modern society lacking any sense of morality, and morals are not about religion. It's a fundamental lack of character and humanity.
"What's wrong with vanity?" What a stupid question. Your ignorance shows your Americanized ignorance where "the self" has turned toxic.
The top response in this Reddit post goes over what is wrong with vanity: https://www.reddit.com/r/entj/comments/89qkc0/why_is_vanity_considered_a_bad_quality/.
My TLDR: You're excessively focused on your yourself, and the opinions and views of others are shallow. You only care about how you are precevied, and will do anything to continued to be precevied a certain way, by any means, leading to compromises.
Yeah, your post reads like it was written by the type of person who uses a Reddit post as their source of truth.
Assuming statements posted to reddit aren't accurate is a weird bias.
Thank you for displaying your vanity and ignorance.
Being correct doesn't give you the right to be an ass. That's just as bad as being vain is, at least.
There are times to be nice and there are times to be blunt. There is no time vanity is useful.
Iβm not going to disparage anyone for body dysmorphia, that stuff hurts.
"Make me look like Pixar Bill Maher."
"Fuckin'... Ok, if that's what you want Mr. Carrey..."
