Hollywood legend actor Jim CARRY (64)'s shocking visual recent appearance has sparked an unexpected online dispute, and a famous plastic surgeon spoke harshly against the indiscriminate criticism directed at Jim CARRY.
According to a report by the Daily Mail on the 10th (local time), Dr. Terry Dubrow, a plastic surgeon famous for the U.S. reality show 'Botched,' appeared on Tory Spelling's podcast and defended Jim CARRY against internet users who disparaged his appearance, calling them "really mean."
The incident began at the 51st César Awards held in Paris, France, on the 26th of last month. Jim CARRY, who had been reclusive, appeared publicly for the first time in a long while to receive a lifetime achievement award. But as soon as the red carpet footage was released, SNS was flooded with reactions such as "his face looks so different" and "is that really the Jim CARRY we knew?" and some went beyond "surgical side effects" to absurd conspiracy theories like "is it a body double or a cloned human?"
On this, Dr. Dubrow expressed regret, saying, "Paparazzi always ask about Jim CARRY's appearance. Everyone just wants to talk about how poor Jim CARRY has changed," and he emphasized, "The reason he looks different is because we've grown accustomed to his younger appearance for so long," adding, "I still think he looks great."
He also criticized other plastic surgeons who analyze Jim CARRY's eyelids or eyebrow position online as if examining them under a microscope, calling it "really uncool and unfair," and said such appearance attacks constitute body-shaming. He appealed, "Jim CARRY is like a national treasure to us. Couldn't people be a little kinder?"
Earlier, some speculated that Jim CARRY's change in appearance was the result of extensive plastic surgery costing at least $60,000 (about 80 million won). Jim CARRY's side also dismissed the controversy, saying "the cloned human theory is groundless, and he attended the awards as himself."
Meanwhile, Jim CARRY, who drew fans' regrets after announcing a tentative retirement in 2022, made a dazzling comeback and showed his enduring presence through the 2024 film Sonic the Hedgehog 3.
