He's got a new movie coming out soon. He's probably just trying to make sure people remember he exists and that he's WACKY before the publicity machine starts in ernest.

What's interesting to me is that the movie is being promoted more as a Steve Carell movie, not a Jim Carrey one. I keep forgetting that Jim is even in it.

Hence the need for the Angel Wings and Giant Feet of Desperation.

Sad news. His on-again/off-again girlfriend committed suicide.

Jim Carrey's on-again/off-again 28-year-old girlfriend has committed suicide

Law enforcement tells TMZ, LAPD responded to a call in the L.A. area Monday night. We're told they went to a residence and found the body of Cathriona White.

Our sources say White left a suicide note addressed to Carrey which references their break up on Sept. 24. Cathriona tweeted on the 24th ... "Signing off Twitter, I hope I have been a light to my nearest and dearest."

Law enforcement tells us they believe she died from an overdose of drugs -- pills were next to her body. We're told 2 friends found Cathriona last night when they went to check on her.

53-year-old Carrey and White met in 2012, dated a few months and then split. They rekindled their relationship in May.

I really worry about Jim Carrey. He's a textbook manic-depressive, with a lot of unrequited needs. He hasn't been able to maintain a relationship, he had a difficult childhood, and he desperately wants respect in the industry which people seem reluctant to give, even though I think he's done some great work. Did he ever get an Oscar nom? He should have for Truman.

Jesus, that's terrible.

At least she's out of pain, but Jesus...I hope he's surrounded by support right now. Poor guy must feel awful.

He's never gotten an Oscar nomination. He definitely should've gotten one for The Truman Show, and I'd throw in Man on the Moon and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind as well.

Judging by the kind of stuff he posts on Twitter it seems like he's slowly losing his mind. I can only imagine how badly this will effect him.

So she mentioned him in her suicide note? Yeah, she really wanted to send a message.

Yikes.

What a tragedy.

Jim has seemed very close to the edge for several years now. I hope he will get through this.

I agree about being worried for Jim. It's sad he doesn't get the respect he so much craves because he is truly talented. His dramatic acting captivates me just as much as his comedies.
