Jane Carrey is a musician and, like her famous dad, Jim Carrey, she has also acted. Jane auditioned for “American Idol” back in 2012, as The Hollywood Reporter wrote. Prior to her audition, Jane detailed how her love for entertaining began early on in her life. “I’ve been singing for as long as I can remember,” Jane said, via an archival “Idol” interview. “I was always in school plays. I’m a huge ham. I always liked to be on stage.” The singer next discussed positive memories of being raised by Jim. “It was definitely fun growing up with him as a father. I mean, he’s not the most extravagant celebrity, so it’s been fairly normal — fairly,” Jane said. She made it through to the following round after singing Bonnie Raitt’s hit song, “Something to Talk About,” but was sent home during the show’s Hollywood round, per CBS News.
