Jim started making faces in front of a mirror when he was eight years old where he discovered his talent for doing impressions.

Jim Carrey banked $20 million in How the Grinch Stole Christmas.

 

Jim made an insane 35 million for his 2008 movie “Yes Man.” Totally underrated movie, by the way.

Tupac was a huge fan of Jim, so when he was in Prison, Carrey would often write him funny letters to keep him entertained.

 

As a high schooler, Jim and his siblings had to work for nearly 8 hours a day AFTER school to help support the family.

 

Carrey was one of the candidates for the role of Willy Wonka in the 2005 remake of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. The role was ultimately given to Johnny Depp.

 

His dad was supportive of his young career, and would drive Jim to the comedy club once a week so that he could work on his stand up.

According to Carrey, “I was on Prozac for a long time. It may have helped me out of a jam for a little bit, but people stay on it forever. I had to get off at a certain point because I realized that, you know, everything’s just OK.”

 

As of 2004, Jim holds citizenship in both Canada and The US.

 

According to Jim, he’s a plain and boring eater and he mostly enjoys grilled cheese sandwiches and Mexican food.

It would be great if he kept his political opinions to himself and just acted. I'd love to watch Ace Ventura again and not know that he is an unmitigated douche.
