Jim Carrey has responded to claims of being cloned after a conspiracy theory gained traction online. The actor showcased a new appearance at the Cesar Awards on 26 February, sporting longer hair and lighter eyes than usual, leading to speculations of him being replaced by a clone at the event.

Social media users were quick to point out the alleged discrepancies, with one fan highlighting the eye color difference and another suggesting that Carrey had been cloned years ago.
