Overview
- Jim Carrey accepted an Honorary César in Paris on Feb. 26, delivering an emotional speech partly in French at L’Olympia.
- Makeup artist Alexis Stone posted an Instagram carousel titled “Alexis Stone as Jim Carrey in Paris” that ended with images of a silicone mask, wig and dental prosthetic.
- General delegate Gregory Caulier told Variety the appearance was authentic, noting eight months of coordination and Carrey’s months of French rehearsal.
- Caulier said Carrey was accompanied by his partner, daughter Jane, grandson Jackson, longtime publicist and friends including filmmaker Michel Gondry.
- Stone’s post contained no explicit admission and Carrey’s team had not commented by the latest reports, as online debate continued with some users alleging the mask image was AI-generated.
