Story of Krista

My story takes place in Vermont. Jim Carrey was filming the railroad and a few other scenes behind the building where my Aunt works. I was visiting her at the time, and we got to watch them filming and rehearsing all of these scenes. It was so cool! We snuck in a video camera and we got some footage of the filming, plus a lot of shots of JimQ. But that wasn't the best part, later, one day, we were all invited outside to eat lunch with Jim and the rest of the cast and crew. All of us got to talk with and meet Jim! I could've died. He was so funny, and very nice. He's a lot more attractive in person too, may I add. I can't wait to meet him again! He let me get a few pictures with him, for reminders!

Story of Barb

I was in La Jolla, California a couple weeks ago with my friend who is in fact in love with Jim Carrey. We were fighting about where to go to eat, it was either Moondoggies or the Hard Rock Cafe. We decided on Moondoggies because we had been there before and the food was really good. So we get to Moondoggies and we are seated a booth away from the door. After we are settled in and everything this guy walks in with a little girl. I looked and immediatly freaked out. I did this double take and yelled to my friend. "Ohmigosh Linds, that's Jim Carrey." Then to the people in the booth next to me, "Is that really Jim Carrey?" So Lindsey and I were blown away by the fact that he was seated in the booth across from us. He looked so casual, not what I expected. All through dinner Lindsey and I stared at him and every time we would make fools of ourselves because we would make eye contact with him. So basically it totally looked like we were watching him eat. Anyway after he was finished eating Lindsey wanted to go talk to him. But when it can around to that time Lindsey got way too nervous and begged me to go say something. So after a lot of pleading I got up the nerve to go. So I walked up to him and said, "Hi, I'm Barb and this is my friend Lindsey." I'm so glad that we had the nerve to initiate conversation with him, we talked to him for about five minutes and he gave us both autographs. It was definitely the highlight of my vacation!

Story of Jill

I was in Universal Studio's Hollywood and they have the tram tours that you can ride on and they go around to the different movie sets. Jim was on a brake from the movie "Man on the Moon." Our tour went by the old Bates Hotel from in the movie "Psycho" and out comes a guy in a dress and wig with a big knife. He hops on the back of the tram and rides along for a while. No one really noticed that he was there! And sure enough it was Jim Carrey! No one knew it was him though because all of the make-up he was wearing! But sure enough it was him!

Story of Ray

I am a private limo driver and for a few years I have been Jim Carrey's limo driver. He is a Very nice man. Mr. Carrey is really intelligent, dispite of what people say, not to mention funny.

Story of Mimmy

Well I met Jim and Renee at an ice skating party for the cast and crew of MMI. I was hired as the D.J. for the event. I talked to both of them, Jim asked if I could turn the lights up in the rink so he could see the ice. Renee requested some Red Hot Chili Peppers ("Scar Tissue") and "Back In Black" (AC/DC) dedicated to Jim. They were both very nice, my friend got a picture taken with Renee and we both got autographs (mine on a blank C.D. signed "Slow Ride!!! Jim Carrey") and also my check for my services was personally made out by Jim.

Story of Blair

I got to see Jim Carrey live and in person on the set of "Man on the Moon." He didn't have any attitude and cordially shook hands of extras during breaks in the filming. He even walked down into the audience and played the conga drums near the table I was sitting at. I'll never forget that day!

Story of Nina

I didn't meet him but my friend who lives in California did. She was anorexic at the time (still is, it's sad). Any ways she went to her favorite restaurant with her folks for they wanted her to eat something. And at the time she was a big Jim Carrey fan. Well she spotted him and asked for it. Jim said "No, but I'll give it to you if you eat something!" He obviously overheard her parents talking to her about her problem. Well after that she said Jim made her eat every thing on her plate (which wasn't that much in the first place) then gave her the autograph.

Story of Sid

I was once at Epcot Center with my family when I was about 15 years old. We were in the Japan section of the place and we went into one of the Japanese jewelry stores. I was wandering around the store on my own when I overheard a few people talking about Jim Carrey. I looked over at the people talking and saw them pointing towards the cash register. I then looked over myself and saw Jim Carrey standing there buying some jewelry. He was talking to one of the Japanese ladies and said something and she started laughing. He then signed something for her and quickly away before anybody could really say anything to him.

Story of Paul

I went to Aldershot H.S. in Burlington Ont. Canada with Jim. Although he was not there for long he always made our lunch hours in the cafeteria a blast. He was always in a role just acting away as if in another world. It was incredible fun... a time I will never forget. :)

Story of Ruby

I was visiting Rhode Island last summer and was stopped by some man with a bright brown briefcase. And he gave me some kind of flier to be a extra on the set of Jim Carrey's movie where he played a State Trooper with multiple personalities. So the next day I went to the set and out of the corner of my eye, I saw Jim doing some kind of scene where he was to fall down a hill. He had short buzz cut and had on jeans and a brown jacket. But after each take he would say that he wanted to try another take. Finally when Jim announced that he was done and he sat down to take a break. I walked up to him and started a conversation about why he wanted to keep redoing this hill seen. And with this he answered that he wanted this scene to be completely perfect with every movement done the right way. Then I got an autograph from him without him even asking, right before the extras were called to the set. And so I said goodbye one last time thanked him and then left. This was one of the most memorable moments I have ever had.

Story of Jane

Once, they filmed a Jim Carrey movie behind my house and me and my friend got up in a tree and made a gigantic poster. When Jim Carrey was in our sight, me and Courtney (my friend) nailed the poster to the tree and started yelling. When we finally got Jim attention, Courtney pointed towards the poster, which said: "I LOVE YOU JIM CARREY! I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU! MARRY ME, JIM!!!"

He gave us a thumbs up and smiled. Good ol' Jim, huh?

Story of Grace

Well I met him once, wasn't properly introduced but still got to talk to him. I was fishing in Homer, Alaska... my friends and I decided to go on a camping trip and take a break from the big city of Anchorage. In the summer it is PACKED with tourists and very hard to find a place to fish. We call it here "combat fishing" because it's so tight! So I'm there casting lines out and there's a guy about 5 feet from me... he's whistling and saying "Nice day today" and "Almost got one" but I'm just ignoring him. Then I look over and think how he resembles Jim Carrey... he takes off his sunglasses and cap and sits on the bank and has a soda and I'm just staring at him with my mouth open wondering if I should ask and risk looking like an idiot. He had a big grin and I said "You know who you look like?" And he said "Ummmmm, let me guess... that dork Jim Carrey?" and I said "Oh, my God!"... he laughed and we got to talk for a little while... he even asked me for some fishing pointers then he left with his friends... I was freaking and told everyone by me after he left!

Story of Candi

I was working security for the "Me, Myself & Irene" filming in Middlebury, VT and had the pleasure of seeing some of the filming involving Jim Carrey. My 6 year old son was tickled when I brought him down on a day off and we got to sit down within 10 feet of Jim. On another day off, one of the directors (Peter) introduced myself and 3 other guards to Jim. We got to shake hands and formally meet him. Jim is a very nice man.

Story of Sarah

On December 17th, for one of my best friend's 16th birthday bash, she took me and three of my other friends to NYC to spend the night and see the sights. At about 8:30 or so we decided that we were going to go ice skating at Rockefeller Center. We waited in line for an hour and a half before we could finally get in because some show had rented out the rink. When it was time to start to let people in to skate again, we were in the first 20 people on line. The guy let us down the stairs and we were waiting a little above the rink. Then a security guy comes up to us and he said "Girls, just to let you know, there are celebrities on the rink, and if you do anything stupid we will kick you off." We were so excited, and we started looking. My friend leaned over and said "Sarah, do you see that guy in the hat over there with that girl? I think that's Jim Carrey." Then he skated by us, looked us in the eye, and smiled. We were ice skating on the same ice with Jim Carrey for a bout an hour. He was with his girlfriend, but it wasn't until the end that we realized it was Renee Zellwegger. Towards the end when he skated off the ice, my friends and I kind of hung to the side of the rink where he had gotten off. The crowd above us started screaming "Jim, Jim!", and he took off his hat and waved to them. Then he started walking towards us, and he shook our hands and talked with us briefly. We took pictures of him and Renee together, and some kids got autographs. It was truly a great experience. They both were so incredibly nice. They were just like normal people, out on a date. I don't think I'll ever forget that night.

Story of Chris

Well first of all I'm a big Jim Carrey fan as we all are... right? Anyways one day I was cruisin' in downtown Riverside in California, and Jim was at the Mission Inn (some historic museum like hotel) in the coffee shop. At first I thought it was someone that looked like him, but after a few seconds I had realized that it was Jim in fact. I walked up behind him and suggested he not order the cafe latte' because it causes stomach cramps. He turned around and laughed hysterically. Later we sat and talked over a cup of coffee. Jim is a real cool guy.

Story of Maggie

I was in East Brunswick New Jersey a couple of weeks ago, and I work at the McAntish Inn. I all the sudden saw Jim Carrey walk in and ask if there were any open rooms. My daughter went nuts and started crying. Jim got scared and left the hotel... That was my sighting, AND IT REALLY WAS HIM.

Story of Natasha

I didn't "meet" him but Jim used to be a sea cadet in Ontario, Canada. Anyway I was one and there is always these meetings where all over southern Ontario we gather in the same old building every year. It's pretty neat to know Jim was there, there's pictures and everything. Everyone is really proud of him, and it's obvious why! I know some people that were friends with him, he's suppose to be a really great and funny guy!

Story of Cheelah.

3 years ago, I was going to the local 7-11 to pick up some Lays and Pepsi. While I was there, Jim Carrey came in and purchased a magazine and a couple of candy bars. I said "How ya doin'?" He said "Fine." "You like chocolate, I see." "Yeah, they're great," he answered. I thought to ask him about "The Grinch," but decided not to bother him anymore. He's really tall!

Story of Cadie

I live in really close to Jim Carrey's house. But, unfortunatly, I had never seen him. Until one day, I went to a local store to buy some supplies, since I had moved in a couple of weeks before. Things weren't really tidy at home. So when I was going out, I saw this familiar face from a car. It was Jim's face! I totally freaked out and started screaming. He looked at me and smiled. When I finished spazzing out, I went to talk to him and he signed a piece of papaer that I had with me at the time.

Story of Susan

I was on the set of his new movie, "The Grinch", and I saw his stunt double. We thought it was him, so we rushed over, but it turned out not to be. But, hey, I was close. There's always a next time!

Story of Mark

I met Jim Carrey on the set of "Ace Ventura". My uncle Frank Addonis took me on the set to show me what he does for a living. I was only 9 years old and I had remembered him from my favorite show "In Living Color". I was sooo excited to meet him he gave me a picture and signed it.
I thanked him and said He did a fake sad voice and said That guy is my biggest hero.

Story of Sandy

My 2 sisters, daughter and my husband and I met Jim at Walt Disney World at MGM Studios. My sister was getting a picture with him and I was the photographer. Well this is where the embarrassment came. You know when you have to wait for the little red light, well this took for ever. Then Jim started yelling out comments like "Does anybody teach 101 photography here?" Oh, it was so embarrassing. But it was great to see Jim Carrey and for him to even say anything at all to me. I know my sister didn't mind because she was sitting next to him smiling the whole time. This happened about 4 years ago in November.

Story of Christina

My parents met Jim Carrey when they were cast as extras in Jim's movie. It was such a shame I never got to see Jim.

Story of Kyle
I was walking around Malibu with my family on the fourth of July 2004, and I saw him drive by... I glanced over because I noticed him, and he saw me and he put his hand up... I wanted to flip out. lol.

Story of Marissa :-)

I went to the first screening of Jim's upcoming movie, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, which was very very good by the way. Well, Jim is known to show up at the first screenings for his movies. So we sat as far back as possible in the theater in hopes of seeing him sneak in the back door after the lights went down. Well, we never saw him come in.

Next thing I know, after the movie we looked up and saw Jim's personal assistant, Linda. So we knew that Jim HAD to be there somewhere. So we went outside and decided to go to the back of the theater to see if Jim came out the back. When we got back there, we saw a black SUV waiting by the sidewalk with it's lights on. We sat by the car waiting to see if Jim came out and to see who was going to get into that SUV. I did not want to pass up my chance to meet him. About 30 minutes of waiting, Jim, his daughter Jane, Linda, and some other man walk out the back doors. Then a few other guys joined in the group. They were just standing out there talking. By this point it is 10:00 pm and I told them that if the group got smaller I would go over to Jim. About 10 seconds later, about 3 of the people walked off and all that was left was Jim, Jane, Linda, and the guy who I assume is a bodyguard. So I got a fresh piece of gum and decided that I should not litter (LOL) and go over to the trashcan that was about 5 feet from Jim and his group. So I started walking over there like I was on some mission from God! LOL

I threw my trash away and took one step away from the trash can and I waited. All 4 of them looked over at me at the same time and the bodyguard guy kinda tensed up a bit but Jim put is hand out towards them and said really sweetly, "No. It's okay." He looked me right in the eye, smiled really big, put out his hand before he even got over to me and walked up to me and shook my hand. So I proceeded to apologize to the group for interuppting. I looked up at Jim and I said the following: "I have been wanting to tell you something for the longest time." He was smiling at me and said, "Okay." I said, "I have recently gone through some very difficult times that I know for fact you can relate to. I was living out of a car with my family earlier this year and now I am staying in a hotel room in exchange for my stay there. I have been following your career for 12 years now and it freaks me out that my life is become parallel to your past." He said, "Oh, man." Like he was sympathetic. But he looked at me and never looked away. He seemed really interested in what I had to say.

I then said, "I have something for you. I have been carrying this around with me for awhile now." And I pulled out the letter I had written him earlier this year. I said, "It is only one page. Short, sweet and to the point." He said, "That's okay." I said, "Please read this whenever you get a chance. It explains my situation in more detail and it would be nice to vent to someone who I know understands what it is like. Plus on top of the pressure pile, I came out here to act so that just adds to the pile of crap." He said, "Don't call it crap. Just keep the faith." I said, "Well, I am still going through these hard times so it is crap. Maybe one day I will look back and laugh but not right now." And he smiled. Then he put out his hand to shake mine again so I shook it and then we were hugging.

So I told him once more to read it when he got the chance and really sweetly he said, "I will. I will. Thank you." Jim's daughter was smiling the entire time at me. LOL So I am relieved that I got to tell Jim how I feel and give him my letter about my situation. And you could tell while I was talking to Jim that he certainly did not expect me to tell him all I did. I did not ask for a picture or an autograph. That would be acting like a typical fan and I did not want to treat him like that. So I handled it very classy and did not studder or mess up what I had to say.
