Sorry, Leonardo Da Vinci - we're swiping left on the Mona Lisa. Bad news, Vincent Van Gogh - we think your Starry Night is a Starry Nightmare. And hate to break to you, Salvador Dali, but The Persistence Of Memory is something we've already forgotten about. The only painter who…

While most of us know Jim Carrey as the effervescent, energetic actor behind such characters as The Grinch, one half of Dumb & Dumber and the titular Bruce Dolan in Bruce Almighty, the 56-year-old has been more prolific as a painter than as an actor in recent times. Indeed, it…

Jim Carrey's career is pretty complicated. He's a man who was once viewed by the public almost solely as an over-the-top screwball; someone whose larger-than-life roles were like watching a live-action cartoon. Audiences loved him and Carrey starred in three of the biggest movies of 1994 (Dumb and Dumber, Ace…

It's pretty hard to imagine the richest one per cent ever worrying about money. When you think about the lives of the seriously rich (multi-millionaire or billionaires that is) the idea that they could ever struggle financially, or even lose money at all, seems preposterous. When you have that many…

Mark Zuckerberg recently admitted that 2017 was "a tough year" for Facebook - and that's despite the reported 61 per cent surge in profits last quarter.
