Mildly Interesting

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/

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.

It doesn't look bad IMO

It's a pity that he feels bad about it to the point to do fillers

Looking like a 90s baddie in that vid.

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.

he looks way normal in 2020, i think he overdid it.

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.

A man famous for having a morphable, changing face looks different in two different photos. Say it ain't so.

Ohhh he's just making that face on the right?
