Jim Carrey brought his bizarre sideshow to Toronto
Toronto-born comedic legend Jim Carrey is one of the many A-List stars who'vepopped into townover the past week for TIFF-related happenings.
Appearing just a few days after giving what many are calling a "bizarre" interview at New York Fashion Week, Carrey was every bit as candid and hilarious as fans would expect him to be.
In addition to a dramatic kiss for someone in aTony Clifton costumeon the red carpet, the actor spent a good deal of time speaking to reporters at the premiere forJim & Andy: The Great Beyond, touching on such things aslosing himself in a characterandwanting to be a SUNshine boy.
Carrey also lamented during a Q&A; session that he wished he had let Spike Jonze, who producedJim & Andy, direct his 1995 filmAce Ventura: When Nature Calls.
"I was stupid enough to turn him down to direct Ace 2, cause I had no idea who he was,"he said, "and I've been kicking myself ever since."

A lot of eyes were on Carrey, who appears to be undermore scrutinyfor his behaviour than usual, at his TIFF screening Monday.
On Friday, people on Twitter startedspeculating about Carrey's mental healthafter he told an E! reporter that "I don't believe that you exist," "we're a field of energy dancing for itself and I don't care," and "there is no me," among other things.

Carrey didn't get overtly existential in Toronto, but he was certainly maximum zany.
Who would want him to be anything else?
