If you know anything about Jim Carrey, he’s been trying desperately for years to get back on camera any way he possibly can. His acting career is dead. He has literally no other talent. He’s simply a sad, desperate has-been saying “look at me!”
Carrey dreams of being significant. This kind of childish behavior makes him popular with the Haters.
I saw him on "Comedians In Cars Get Coffee" with Jerry Seinfeld on Netflix.
The acting money bought him a pretty nice art studio and painting is all he does these days. Every work of art he churns out will be worth countless thousands because it has his name scrawled on the bottom. A helluva lot easier than making movies.
