Veteran film actor Jim Carrey certainly seems to be a very popular Hollywood star as he had some pretty big names around him on Thursday night.
The Dumb And Dumber star celebrated his 62nd birthday early in Los Angeles with his top friends. His date of birth is January 17th.
The comedian great rocked a hippie look as he wore his long dark brown hair down as he left the very private San Vicente Bungalows restaurant – where Jennifer Aniston and Sandra Bullock often dine.
And he was carrying a birthday present in his arm as a cake in a pink box was placed into his waiting black SUV.
The group also included film stars Adam Sandler and Dustin Hoffman. Talk show king Jimmy Kimmel, who recently denied Aaron Rodgers' claim that he was on Jeffrey Epstein's infamous list, made an appearance. Also spied on were comedians Seth Green and Jeff Ross.
Carrey has had a breathtaking acting career that began with the variety show “In Living Color,” mushroomed with a role in “Ace Ventura,” and with hits like “Dumb And Dumber” and “How The Grinch Stole.” Christmas” gained momentum.
Last year he said he wanted to take a break from acting and concentrate on his paintings.

Kimmel has had a rough week.
The TV star threatened to sue Aaron Rodgers as their bitter dispute reached new contemptuous levels following the New York Jets quarterback's allegations about the Epstein list.
The NFL star escalated the feud this week when he joked that Kimmel might be on disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein's list of associates, prompting a heated retort from the comedian.
Kimmel threatened to sue the four-time NFL MVP, branding him an “asshole” and accusing him of putting his family in danger.
This comes after Carrey denied rumors that he would make a sequel to his popular film How The Grinch Stole Christmas.
In November he said it wouldn't happen.
According to Giant Freaking Robot, it has been claimed that a sequel to the 2000 Christmas film – How the Grinch Stole Christmas – is being planned. They also claimed that Jim would make a comeback in the title role of the Grinch from the Ron Howard film.
The release said: “Jim Carrey returns to Universal Pictures for The Grinch 2, reprising his role as Dr. Seuss’ most famous and ill-tempered creation.”
But the story seemed wrong.
The actor's rep told People, “It is not true that Jim is reprising his role as the Grinch in a sequel to The Grinch.”

It may come as no surprise to some that the actor isn't reprising the 23-year-old's role, as he previously revealed he wasn't a fan of sequels.
Speaking to CinemaBlend in 2017, the actor said, “I think sequels are largely a function of commerce.”
“At least the two I did were characters I enjoyed, but at that point I almost found myself parroting myself.”
“When there's 10 years between you and the last time you did it, you suddenly ask yourself, 'How did I do that again?'…So you're imitating your original inspiration.”
The Batman Forever actor notably announced that he plans to retire from acting after the release of Sonic The Hedgehog 2 in 2022, stating that he feels he has “done enough.”
During an interview with Access Hollywood at the time, the Bruce Almighty star discussed his plans after being asked if he was “serious” about the decision. “Well, I’m retiring. Yes, probably. I'm pretty serious.
“If the Angels come back with a script written in gold ink that tells me it's going to be really important for people to see, then maybe I'll go ahead,” he told Access Hollywood at the time. “But I’m taking a break.”
The actor has written several books throughout his long career.

He has also become somewhat notorious for his political cartoons and has focused on his art.
He shares his work on social media on the Jim Carrey Art Gallery account and some of his pieces are sold by some galleries for up to $20,000.
“I really like my quiet life, and I really love painting paint on canvas, and I really love my spiritual life,” he told the outlet.
“I feel like, and this is something that as long as time exists you might never hear another celebrity say, 'I've had enough, I've done enough.' I am enough.”
This comes after Jim listed his “getaway” Los Angeles mansion, which has been his home for almost 30 years, for a whopping $28.9 million earlier this year.

The Golden Globe winner initially purchased the lavish property in 1994, but told the New York Post in a statement released Monday that he was ready for “changes” in his life.
In a statement to the New York Post, Jim explained his motivations for listing his longtime home, saying, “It's been a sanctuary for me for three decades, but now I don't spend much time there anymore, and I want someone else to.” , who enjoys it as much as I do.”
He humorously added that he was ready for “Cha cha cha cha…Changes,” referencing a hit song by David Bowie called “Changes.”
According to the outlet, Carrey purchased the home in L.A.'s Brentwood neighborhood in 1994 for $3.8 million.
The talented star also spoke to The Wall Street Journal about selling the sprawling 12,704 square foot mansion. He expressed that the house was “a place of enchantment and inspiration.”

Reflecting on his years there, he said, “Every evening the owls sang me lullabies and every morning I drank my cup of coffee with the hawks and hummingbirds under a huge grandpa pine.”
Adding his mansion to the list was a positive step for the star, who is ready for a change in his life, not long after Jim revealed in April last year that he had plans to retire from acting.
