So, he really made a name for himself as both a comedian and actor, especially during the 1990s when he lit up the big screen in some of the most beloved comedies of the decade. I mean, just think about it—films like Dumb and Dumber, The Mask, The Cable Guy, Liar Liar, and Ace Ventura: Pet Detective? Yeah, he was everywhere, and honestly, those roles kind of defined a generation of comedy. But here’s the thing—he didn’t just stick to slapstick. He showed serious range, which a lot of people didn’t expect. Like, remember The Truman Show? That performance was incredible, and honestly, it earned him a well-deserved Golden Globe. And then he followed that up with another powerful role in Man on the Moon, where he played Andy Kaufman—again, Golden Globe win. Talk about versatility.
And let’s not forget Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind from 2004—that was such a unique, inventive film, and his portrayal of Joel Barish was both heartfelt and deeply moving. It really proved that he could handle complex, emotional material just as well as broad comedy.
Now, before all this fame and red carpets, he actually started out doing stand-up comedy. Yeah, back in the day, he was performing in local Toronto clubs, just trying to get his break. Eventually, he packed up and moved to Los Angeles, chasing that Hollywood dream. Things started picking up in 1990 when he joined the cast of the sketch comedy show In Living Color. That gig really helped put him on the map.
On the personal side, he’s had quite a few relationships over the years. He was married to Melissa Womer from 1987 to 1995, and they have a daughter together named Jane. Then, in 1996, he tied the knot with actress Lauren Holly—but that marriage only lasted about a year. Later on, he was in a long-term relationship with actress Jenny McCarthy, from 2005 to 2010. After that, he was with makeup artist Cathriona White until her tragic passing in 2015. That must’ve been incredibly tough.
He also dated Ginger Gonzaga for a while, though they split after less than a year. Oh, and back in 2011, there were rumors linking him romantically with Anchal Joseph—though that seemed pretty brief. So yeah, through all the ups and downs, both professionally and personally, he’s remained a major figure in entertainment.
Back in the early 2000s, he kept building momentum with major roles in mainstream comedy films. One of his standout performances was as the Grinch in How the Grinch Stole Christmas, which really showcased his range. Then, in 2003, he took on the lead role of Bruce Nolan in Bruce Almighty, a film that further solidified his status as a top-tier comedic actor. He truly made each character his own, bringing humor and heart to every scene. It’s clear that during this period, he was at the peak of his popularity, delivering hits that fans still love today.
