Tragic. Why don't famous people realise how much better it looks to age naturally?

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?

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.

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.
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 isn’t exactly an honest before-and-after photo.
Here's one from last year: https://i.dailymail.co.uk/1s/2024/12/17/04/93219555-0-image-a-128_1734408756840.jpg

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.

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?!
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:
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 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.

For a guy whos schtick was the elastic face impressions, this seems like a not so wise move, but to each their own...
Thanks, I hate it. Someone tint his face green because it's very Mask like now.
Ssssssomebody stop him!
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.

I don't see why he'd have anything done, he naturally looked pretty alright even for his age. Oh well, his choice.. 🤷

They clearly killed him and replaced him
Next you are going to tell me there was never a cornucopia.
Is he trying to escape from the police?
Renee Zellweger syndrome.
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.

He doesn't even look like Jim Carrey now. At no point in his life did he look like that.
They got to him. Big Face Filler got to him! If they can get to Jim, what hope is there?!
vaccines?: ewww
filler?: more please
don’t tell he is anti vaccines? :(
oh, he's an og, antivax before it got trendy
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
Erin Moriarty from The Boys. Lip injections at 29.
This is sad.
Guy on the left: Jim Carrey. Guy on the right: James Carrey
He doesn't look younger. But he no longer looks human. As long as he's happy I guess

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.

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.

If that's the same person, they had shit ton of dental work done, because the angles are different

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.
