Jim Carrey
Born: January 17, 1962 (age 61) Canada . (Show more)

Jim Carrey , in full James Eugene Carrey, (born January 17, 1962, Newmarket, Ontario, Canada), Canadian American comedian who established himself as a leading comedic actor with a series of over-the-top performances and who won plaudits for his more-serious portrayals as his career progressed.

Carrey grew up in and around Toronto. At age eight he began making faces before a mirror and discovered a talent for doing impressions. After leaving school in 1978 to help support his family, Carrey worked for two years as a janitor in a factory. He made his professional debut as a stand-up comedian in a Toronto club at age 15 and by 1979 he was able to make a living as a comedian. He wrote most of his own material as an opening act for such comics as Buddy Hackett and Rodney Dangerfield. Known for his racing energy level and frenetic improvisation, he had a comic appeal that was mainly visual. He was a technically brilliant mimic and boasted more than 100 characterizations, with a repertoire ranging from Humphrey Bogart to Kermit the Frog.

At age 19 Carrey moved to Hollywood, where he acted in films and on television; he obtained dual citizenship to the United States in 2004. In 1983 he played a role in the Canadian television film Introducing…Janet. The following year he made his feature film debut in Finders Keepers, which was followed by a leading role in the film Once Bitten (1985). Carrey then played an intergalactic alien named Wiploc in the comedy Earth Girls Are Easy (1988). His first TV special, Jim Carrey: Unnatural Act (1991), received rave reviews and led to a regular role on the television sketch comedy series In Living Color. The show ended in 1994, and Carrey concentrated on his film career. He scored an immediate hit with Ace Ventura: Pet Detective and had continued box-office success with Dumb and Dumber and The Mask (all 1994). In the latter film Carrey played a timid bank clerk who becomes a hip wisecracking green-faced dandy when he dons a magical mask. His performance earned Carrey the first of several Golden Globe Award nominations. He subsequently starred in Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls (1995) and played the Riddler in Batman Forever (1995).

After the black comedy The Cable Guy (1996)—which fared poorly at the box office—Carrey scored a hit with Liar Liar (1997). In that film he played a fast-talking lawyer forced—by a magic spell invoked by his young son’s birthday wish—to tell the truth for one day. Carrey received Golden Globes for his work in The Truman Show (1998), a tale of a man who discovers that his apparently ordinary life is really a popular television show, and Man on the Moon (1999), in which he portrayed the comedian Andy Kaufman. In 2000 he appeared in the film adaptation of Dr. Seuss’s How the Grinch Stole Christmas.

He subsequently starred in such films as Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events (2004), the mystery-thriller The Number 23 (2007), and Yes Man (2008).

In 2017 the short documentary Jim Carrey: I Needed Color revealed Carrey’s growing interest in painting and sculpting. Although art critics derided his work, Carrey continued to practice art and went on to regularly tweet political cartoons mocking Pres. Donald Trump and his administration. In 2020 Carrey published the semiautobiographical novel Memoirs and Misinformation (written with Dana Vachon).

Jim Carreyning biografiyasi

Jeyms Eugen Kerry butun dunyoni kulib qo’yadigan bir necha mashhur kishilardan biri. Kerry, millionlab kishilar, Kerry, Gollivud allaqachon uning savdo belgisi bo’lgan, va aktyor o’zi uchun – kirish kartasi bo’lgan uning yuz ifodalari va ishoralari tufayli ega bo’ldi. Lekin qanchalik achinarli bo’lsa-da, haqiqiy hayotda, taqdir taqdiri har doim Jimni komediya va baxtli daqiqalarda ko’rsatmagan.

Aktyor Jim Karrey – bolalik va martaba boshlanishi

Aktyor Jim Carreyning tarjimai holi Kanadadagi Nyu-Market shahrida boshlanadi. Aktyorning tug’ilgan sanasi – 1962 yil 17 yanvar. Kelajakdagi aktyorning oilasida har doim moliyaviy qiyinchiliklar bo’lgan va u bilan birga ota-onasining uchta bolasi bor ekan, hamma uchun oson emas edi. Jeymsning otasi buxgalter sifatida ishladi va olgan maoshi katta oilani to’ydirish uchun etarli emas edi. Jim Carreyning ota-onalari juda kamdan-kam uchraydigan bolalar kiyimlarini sotib olishgan, va ularning eng yoshi keksa kishilaridan keyin hamisha kiyib yurishgan. Shu bois, bolalar etishmasligi tufayli imkon bo’lsa, maktabdan so’ng yarim soat ishlashgan. Qiynoqlarga duch kelgan va kambag’al ayol o’z ishini yo’qotib qo’ygandan keyin, yashash joyini o’zgartirgan oila uyni sotish va etkazib berish vaniga borishi kerak edi.

Ota-onalarga oilani qo’llab-quvvatlashga yordam berish uchun, Jim supermarketda sakkiz soat ishladi va maktabda u uxlab qoldi. Keyinchalik Kerry hech kim bilan do’stlashmadi, chunki boshqa bolalarning muammolari u uchun ahamiyatsiz va kichik edi. Aslida shunday bo’ldi, chunki uning oilasi chodirda yashagan joyga yetdi. Ehtimol, hayotda Jim juda qiyin bo’lganligi sababli, uning yomon xulq-atvori va turli janjallar bilan doimo ajralib turardi. Jim Karreyning oilasi hech narsa qila olmadi, chunki u moliyaviy qiyinchiliklarga dosh bergani yo’q, va bolalarni tarbiyalashda vaqt va kuch yo’q edi.

Shu sababli, bola juda sog’lom bola emas edi. Jim uchun dam olish va o’yin-kulgi sifatida xizmat qiladigan yagona mashg’ulot yuzlarni, ya’ni oynaning yaqinida kıvrılmaktı. Bir necha soat davomida u mahoratini oshirdi. Keyin yosh yigit bu kelajakda o’z taqdirini tubdan o’zgartirishi mumkinligini bilmas edi. Hayotning barcha hayoti faqat ruhiy, ma’naviy va jismonan kuchliroq bo’ldi.

Oradan 10 yil o’tgach, bola 80 ta parodiya namoyishiga chiqdi, undan so’ng u Gollivudda ko’rindi. 15 yoshida u komediya klubining a’zosi bo’ldi. Dastlab u film va seriallarda ikkinchi darajali rol o’ynashga taklif qilindi. Kerry o’zining birinchi haqini olganidan keyin u mutlaqo mashhur va boy bo’lishini aytdi. 80-yillarning boshlarida Jim umidsiz bir qadam tashlashga qaror qildi va oilasini Los Anjelesga ko’chirdi.

Oila va kasal onasiga ko’proq vaqt ajratish uchun, u ikki yil davomida yo’qotib qo’yganligi sababli ishda kamroq ishlay boshladi. Keyin u og’ir tushkunlikka tushib qoldi . Biroq Jim kichik detektor Ace Ventura bilan shug’ullanadigan kichik byudjetli filmda kichik rol uning dunyodagi mashhurligi va o’sishiga olib keldi. Vaqt o’tib, u Shimoliy Amerikadagi eng ommabop va izlanuvchan aktyorlardan biri bo’ldi. Jim Carrey bugungi kunda mukofotlar va jiddiy to’lovlarni olishda davom etmoqda.

Jim Carreyning shaxsiy hayoti

Bu odam haqiqiy Gollivud xonimlarining odamidir. U qo’lqop kabi ayollarni o’zgartiradi. Uning romanlari haqida ko’p gap ketmoqda, garchi 50 yoshga kirgan bo’lsa-da. Aktyorning birinchi xotini Melissa Vomer edi, undan qizi Jeyn Erin Keri bor edi. Biroq, ularning munosabatlari rivojlanmadi. Shundan keyin Kerry o’zi juda kam. U har doim model ko’rinishidagi go’zalliklarga hamroh bo’ladi.

Shunga qaramay, Jim Karrey, uning oilasi va farzandlari hali ham uning turmush o’rtog’ini topmagan bo’lsa-da, 2010 yilda tug’ilgan nabirasi borligini ta’kidlaydi va ko’rsatadi.

Sayyoradagi eng dahshatli komediyachi: Jim Karrey haqida 13 ta xavotirli fakt

Ular komediyachilar dunyodagi eng xushkash odamlar, deb aytishadi. Afsuski, Jim Karreyning tarixi bu umumiy haqiqatni tasdiqlaydi.

17 yanvar kuni sayyoramizning eng mashhur komederi 55 yoshga to’ldi. Uning ishtirokida filmlarni tomosha qilganingizda, dunyoda hech qanday quvnoq va quvnoq odam yo’q. Lekin juda kam odam kulgili falokatning hech qachon jilmayib qo’ygan niqob ortida nima yashirin ekanligini biladi .

1. Jim Carrey 1962 yil 17 yanvarda Nyu-Meksiko (Kanada) shahrida juda kam ta’minlangan oilada tug’ilgan. Qashshoqlik tufayli Jim, uning ota-onasi, ukasi va singillari römorkta yashashlari kerak edi. Yiliga 12 oy davomida bola xuddi shunday narsalar edi.
2. Bolaligida u Rojdestvoni yomon ko’rgan. Chunki bu bayramda barcha bolalar sovg’alar oldilar va Santa Claus unga biron bir narsa keltirmadi .
3. Uning onasi aqldan ozgan edi. Jimning onasi hipokondriakal sindromga chalingan, u doimo turli kasalliklarning belgilarini topdi: oshqozon-ichakdan shishgan ensefalitgacha. Uning chaqaloq bezi dermatit haqida gapirgan bolaning bola bezi reklamalarini televizorda ko’rishga arziydi, chunki bu kasallikning belgilaridan darhol “topildi”. U qo’shnilariga o’zining xayoliy kasalliklari haqida cheksiz shikoyatlar bilan tazyiq o’tkazdi va shuning uchun u aqldan ozgan edi.
4. Maktab Jimni mudhish qildi . Lekin, u hammomda yurib, yopiq edi, bundan tashqari g’ayritabiiy bir ona bor edi .
5. Kerry erta ishlashni boshladi . Har qanday tarzda ovqatlantirish uchun u qurilish maydonchasidagi ishchilar uchun hojatxonalarni yuvdi.
6. U birinchi marta jamoat oldida gapirishga qaror qilganida, u shafqatsiz tarzda g’o’ldirardi. Ushbu voqea Torontodagi klublardan birida ro’y berdi.
7. Bolaligidanoq, uning g’ayrati uning xatti-harakatlarida kuzatilgan. Jim, unga qarshi josuslik qiladigan bolalarga qarshilik ko’rsatish uchun, Jim kufr maskasini “kiyish” ga qaror qildi. Qo’rqqanidan u tepaga o’girilib, yuzlarini silkitib oldi. Bunday taktikalar yordam berdi: o’smir orqada qolib, ortida biroz “ko’chib yurgan” shuhrat, ammo kulgili odam.
8. Afsuski, o’zlarini himoya qilish zaruriyati bilan ishlab chiqilgan bolalarning odatlari, shuningdek, kattalarga ham o’tib ketdi. Jimning turmush o’rtog’i uni har qanday narsaga ayblashi kerak edi, chunki u aylantira boshlagan, aylana va palyaço edi, chunki u bu tarzda tajovuzga javob qaytarishda ishlatilgan . Birinchi xotin uning bilan yashash Mickey Mouse bilan bir xil ekanini aytdi. Bu g’alati tuyg’ular tufayli va barcha turmushdagi nikohlarni ranjitadigan va Kerry bilan bo’lgan munosabatlar, jumladan, aktrisa Renee Zellweger bilan romantizm.

U, Jim kabi, depressiyaga moyil edi, shuning uchun sevuvchilar bir-birlarini yaxshi tushunishdi. Biroq yaqinda ikkala achinarli odamlar bir-biriga chidashga majbur bo’lib, ular bir-biriga qaram bo’lib qolishdi. 2015-yil may oyida ularning romantikasi qayta tiklandi, ammo ikkinchi urinish muvaffaqiyatsizlikka uchradi. 24 sentyabr kuni Kerry qizga o’z munosabatlarini buzish kerakligini aytdi. Katriyona uyiga kelib, noqonuniy giyohvand moddalardan ko’p foydalangan. Uning Twitterdagi so’nggi so’zi quyidagicha:

“Umid qilamanki, men oilam va do’stlarim uchun yorug’lik nuridir”

Qizning o’limidan so’ng, uning oilasi Katerini ko’plab kemalar orqali sudrab, uni Ekaterinni o’z joniga qasd qilishga , uni zaharlovchi kasallik va boshqa gunohlarga duchor qilganlikda ayblashdi . Balki ular qizning o’limiga pul berishni xohlashdi .
