Jim has a great body for comedy - tall, slim and very flexible. However, you could also say he has a great body full stop. He stands 6ft 2in tall and carries very practically zero fat. Some women may prefer their men to have a little more muscle on their bones but we like Jim just the way he is.

Off screen, Jim likes to keep himself very much to himself. He is currently unattached although he has had his fair share of relationships. Jim has been married twice, first to Melissa Womer (1987 - 1995) and then to actress Lauren Holly (1996 - 1997). He has an eighteen year old daughter, Jane Erin Carrey, from his first marriage. He was also engaged to Bridget Jones star Renée Zellweger but the couple split in 2000.

Jim is arguably the funniest man in Hollywood and he isn’t far off being the richest either. You may think his fee of $20m a movie is a little excessive but when you consider how much money his films generate, he is entitled to every penny. But it’s not all about the Benjamins (that’s money, in case you were wondering), he is also a very talented actor. His performances in The Truman Show (1998) and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004) won critical acclaim and highlighted his abilities as a dramatic actor.
