Purpose

Behind the Scene into the Lives of Celebrities is a blog to cast a celebrity each week. As we all know from reading magazines to newspapers; they don't tell the full truth about some of the things they put out there about people. Paparazzi edit the truth to make it seem more interesting and entertaining to those who read it, even though it's jam-packed full of lies! Would you like to have lies broadcasted about you on television..or anything for that matter? In this blog, no lies will be found, it's just going to be bits and pieces of their lives, their family, and most important their goals to become better at their career.

James Eugene Carrey

Comedian and a film actor?  These are two jobs James Eugene Carrey worked to become in his life.  The show I remember him most from is The Mask.  To me I feel like he shined most in that film.  Because he was good in that film I would watch it over and over again.  That film was actually considered to be one of his big breaks.
Jim was born on January 17, 1962, in Newmarket, Canada to Percy and Kathleen Carrey.  Growing up Jim had three siblings.  Two sisters, Rita and Patricia.  Then he had one brother, John.  Making him the youngest out of the four.  Jim first started his comedian act when he was around 15 years old.  He started his acting career in 1983 when he was heading to Hollywood to star in a television movie Introducing..Janet.  
After that movie Jim Carrey starred in other films as well.  He moved to the United States back in the 1980's.  His big break with acting was when he starred in the Ace Ventura: Pet Detective comedy back in 1994.  Jim also was in a fox series called In Living Color.  Jim was in the series for five whole seasons.

Also in 1998 Jim starred in The Truman Show, and with that show Jim won a Golden Globe award for being the best actor in the whole film.  And, of course, everyone has heard of the movie Dumb and Dumber....correct?  Of course Jim starred in that as well!  Some say that was one of his "big breaks".  I honestly didn't see why people liked that movie anyway.  Through the years 1994-1997 Jim starred in some of the biggest movies that got him out there in the world of acting.
Just like everyone else Jim has a life outside of his career.  Jim was married to Melissa Womer from 1987-1995.  From that marriage Jim had a child, Jane.  Jane was born on September 6, 1987.  If you follow American Idol, Jane auditioned back in 2012, but sadly she didn't make it the entire way through. He was also married to a women by the name of Lauren Holly, she is an American-Canadian actress.  They were married to each other through the years 1996-1997.
