The organisers of France's César Awards in Paris moved this week to dismiss online claims that Jim Carrey was replaced by an impersonator at the ceremony on Feb. 26, insisting his appearance was genuine as the rumor mill around.
For context, the speculation flared after drag artist and make-up illusionist Alexis Stone posted an Instagram carousel on March 1 that appeared to suggest he had 'become' Carrey in Paris, pairing photos from the night with an image of a mask, fake teeth and a dark wig.
