These are the first pictures of a very camp-looking Carrey in character for his role in prison break comedy I Love You Phillip Morris.

Dressed in a tight black T-shirt, white jeans, a huge gold lion's head buckle on his belt, and a liberal helping of fake tan, comedy star Carrey is almost unrecognisable.

Carrey is seen here during filming getting to grips with actor Rodrigo Santoro, with his hand on his co-stars behind.
