Carrey Calls Cruise a "Big Joke"

Think Jim Carrey's ever going to get another invite from Tom Cruise? Not after the funnyman called Cruise "the big joke" of last year.


Carrey was very publicly trotted out for the cameras at Cruise's November wedding to Katie Holmes in Italy, but that apparently doesn't mean he's got all that much respect for Tom. "Everyone gets to be the big joke for a year. That's this business. Last year it was Tom Cruise," he tells Time (via Page Six). Of course, Carrey admits that he might be on his way to laughing-stock status as well, because he's not making big $20-million-per pictures anymore. "I could be the next Kathie Lee Gifford."

Re: Carrey Calls Cruise a "Big Joke"

The headline makes it sound so scandalous.

The true quote, however, is nothing. It's not like he's calling Tom a big joke. He's saying the business does that to a person a year.

Love how they pull things out of context.
