Gregory said it was actually Jim at the event, not an impersonator, and he called it “a historic moment.”
He told Variety that the rumors were a “non-issue.”
He added, “Jim Carrey’s visit has been planned since this summer. From the outset, he was extremely touched by the Academy’s invitation. Eight months of ongoing, constructive discussions. He worked on his speech in French for months, asking me about the exact pronunciation of certain words. He came with his partner, his daughter, his grandson and 12 close friends and family members. His longtime publicist accompanied him. His old friend Michel Gondry, who has made a film and two series with him, was there, and they were delighted to see each other again.”
He concluded his statement with: “For me, it’s a non-issue. I just remember his generosity, his kindness, his benevolence, his elegance.”
