Alexis Stone claimed she was wearing a latex mask and fake teeth <\/p>\n
Drag queen Alexis Stone is famed for her celebrity impersonations, which is why it was somewhat believable when she claimed to be responsible for Jim Carrey\u2019s insane face transformation.<\/p>\n
After leaving Hollywood in 2022, Jim Carrey<\/a> popped up again at the Cesar Film Awards last week. He was picking up his Honorary Cesar Award, but most of the internet was hyperfixated on how much he\u2019s changed.<\/p>\n His face and hair were visibly different, sparking conspiracy theories that ranged from him being replaced to dipping into plastic surgery. Though the passage of time is proboably the most realistic explanation, things got considerably wilder when Alexis claimed it was her in a latex mask<\/a>.<\/p>\n On Instagram, she shared 3D scans of the actor\u2019s face alongside the mask itself and a set of false teeth. She even posted proof that she was in Paris on her Instagram story, and people went nuts.<\/p>\n \u201cI can\u2019t handle any more stress right now I need to know if this is real,\u201d Megan Fox wrote.<\/p>\n \u201cThis looks way too good to be true,\u201d another said, as a third added, \u201cI need the real Jim Carrey to confirm.\u201d<\/p>\n Guys, it wasn\u2019t Alexis Stone wearing Jim Carrey\u2019s face<\/p>\n As Twitter obsesses over Jim Carrey\u2019s transformation, which naturally includes drawing red circles around his face, Variety<\/a> spoke to officials at the Cesar Film Awards. Perhaps unshockingly, it was not Alexis Stone playing a prank.<\/p>\n Gregory Caulier, the general delegate of the Cesar Awards, explained: \u201cJim Carrey\u2019s visit has been planned since this summer. From the outset, he was extremely touched by the Academy\u2019s invitation. Eight months of ongoing, constructive discussions.<\/p>\n \u201cHe worked on his speech in French for months, asking me about the exact pronunciation of certain words. He came with his partner, his daughter, his grandson and 12 close friends and family members. His longtime publicist accompanied him. His old friend Michel Gondry, who has made a film and two series with him, was there, and they were delighted to see each other again.\u201d<\/p>\n He called it a \u201cnon-issue\u201d, which is code for: This is ridiculous, and I can\u2019t believe someone is asking me this.<\/p>\n
