Kathy Griffin channels Jim Carrey in love video to Justin Bieber [Poll]

Inspired by Jim Carrey's recent Emma Stone homage -- after being spurred on by a Twitter follower -- Kathy Griffin has issued her own love-letter video ... to Justin Bieber.

"What/whom do YOU wanna hear me GO OFF on?," Griffin said Thursday on Twitter by way of soliciting fodder for her Saturday stand-up show being taped for Bravo. "I just feel like making this my angriest one:)"

User @AlexAnthonyG answered, suggesting she "make fun of how Jim Carry wrote a creepy love letter to Emma Stone and putting it on the internet." And voilà, like that, it was done -- and clearly an improv rush job, with Griffin's note cards easy to spot reflected in the shiny background. 

Carrey's video, a planned comedic bit to launch his new video site JimCarreyTrulife.com, unnerved those who'd missed the "it's a joke" part of the joke. Griffin's, however, was clearly intended as comedy. As was her "Levi Johnston is my boyfriend" phase. We hope.

So given that both videos are on the record as "comedic," we have to know: Which is funnier, and which one makes you more uncomfortable?  See Griffin's, below, and watch Carrey's here (we'd send you straight to his site, but it keeps crashing). We have our own opinion, but ... the polls are below. Go nuts.

Jim Carrey declares love for Emma Stone [Video] [Poll] [Updated]

If Jim Carrey ran Abercrombie & Fitch, the A&F proposition to the Situation last week might have looked a little more like the video below -- it's Carrey's love letter to actress Emma Stone, and while Carrey doesn't ask Stone to take off any clothing or offer any money like A&F, it's bound to draw as many or more eyeballs as the retailer's publicity-stunt letter did last week.

The 49-year-old Carrey, who broke up with longtime girlfriend Jenny McCarthy in April 2010, pours his heart out to Stone, saying:

If I were a lot younger I would marry you and we would have chubby little freckle-faced kids. We'd laugh all day long and go camping and play Yahtzee and tell ghost stories by the fire. And every day for the rest of your life you would thank God that I was the appropriate age for you.

The video was posted to Carrey's personal site, jimcarreytrulife.com, which was crashed Thursday morning under the weight of the attention drawn to the video. His official site was crashed as well.

"I just wanted to let you know how I felt," Carrey said in the video to Stone. "I think you're pretty special. I wish you continued success and artistic fulfillment but most of all I wish you love and contentment. That's all."

[Updated, 2:30 p.m. Aug. 25: "Yes, my msg to Emma Stone was a comedy routine and the funniest part is that everything i said is tru," Carrey said on Twitter (for those who were wondering). He later mentioned that the site -- which has other videos from the actor's everyday life including visits to Brazil and Haiti, allows for comments on the videos, and is intended as "a more immediate way" for him to connect with fans -- had "crashed temporarily. Back up soon. ?;^\"]

Emma Stone turns 23 in November. No word on whether Carrey, who is a grandpa, will be releasing disappointing quarterly earnings later on Thursday. Check out the video for yourself, below, and then vote in the poll even further below.

The premiere of the Jim Carrey comedy "Mr. Popper's Penguins" gave new meaning to "June gloom" Sunday as penguins waddled out of a limo and fake snow fell outside Grauman's Chinese Theatre.

Young faces on the red carpet included "Super 8" cast members Riley Griffiths and Ryan Lee; Kiernan Shipka of "Mad Men"; Mason Vale Cotton, Maxwell's younger brother; and Frankie Jonas, the Jonas brothers' younger sibling.

Jennifer Aniston hits Spike TV Guys Choice Awards for Decade of Hotness honor

The guys have spoken, Jennifer Aniston -- well, they spoke Saturday evening in Los Angeles, where the actress scooped up a Spike TV Guys Choice Award for Decade of Hotness.

Cradling her gilded antlers and wearing a little black dress, Aniston looked before a star-packed crowd and joked, "A decade? That would put it at [2001], which is good because I had some sketchy looks in the '90s."

She also expressed her gratitude for her yoga trainer and studly male costars, such as Jason Sudeikis, who presented her the trophy.

Backstage in the green room, Scarlett Johansson and Sean Penn sat together over drinks, protected by several security guards as Robert De Niro was whisked in to join them. De Niro was on hand to present the annual Brass Balls trophy to Keith Richards.

"It's a superhero party," Samuel L. Jackson remarked to awards exec producer Casey Patterson, both looking upon the likes of Chris Evans and Jeremy Renner.

Funnymen Joel McHale and Aziz Ansari watched beauties such as Minka Kelly and Mila Kunis orbit the private lounge, while "Other Guys" costars Eva Mendes and Mark Wahlberg discussed touring Afghanistan.

Speaking of the troops, Spike TV always takes good care of the men and women in uniform -- trays of Pizza Hut pizza and Coronas on ice were handy for them, and the lot got to meet some of their favorites, such as Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, Jim Carrey and basketballer Blake Griffin.

The Guys Choice Awards will air on Friday at 9 p.m. on Spike TV.

Jim Carrey's daughter Jane Carrey divorcing Alex Santana

Love, marriage, baby carriage -- divorce. It's been quick a quick trip for Jane Carrey, daughter of actor Jim Carrey, who is getting divorced from Alex Santana a little more than a year after they were wed.

Santana and the younger Carrey welcomed baby Jackson Riley Santana in February, a few months after their November 2009 nuptials. Husband and wife are both musicians, with Santana fronting the band Blood Money and Carrey part of the Jane Carrey Band.

"The couple will remain friends, as well as devoted parents to their 9-month-old son," a spokesman for Jim Carrey told InTouch magazine exclusively.

Breakups might run in the family -- Jane is Jim's daughter with first wife Melissa Womer. The actor's second marriage, to Lauren Holly, ended in divorce after less than a year, and he split with four-year girlfriend Jenny McCarthy in April. Renee Zellweger was in the mix as well, with an engagement that also didn't pan out.

Jenny McCarthy closing her school for autistic kids

Jenny McCarthy and her business partner, language pathologist Sarah Scheflen, have decided to close the Talk2Teach Academy, their school for autistic children, McCarthy's rep told HollywoodLife on Friday. 

The two "had different visions for the school and made a decision to go their separate ways," the rep said, adding that both intend to continue with this work.

The former Playboy Playmate co-founded the school -- which now also sells teaching tools and nutritional supplements -- in 2007 after her son Evan was diagnosed with autism. She converted the headquarters of Generation Rescue, her controversial autism organization, into what Time called "a state-of-the-art school for very young autistic kids."

This on the heels of McCarthy's split from Jim Carrey on Tuesday, and only six weeks after the birth of his grandchild, which she had anticipated with great eagerness.

Jim Carrey and Jenny McCarthy break up -- then tell the world via Twitter

Jim Carrey and Jenny McCarthy have been a modern couple, not marrying despite years of companionship. Turns out they're even more modern exes -- the pair announced their split today via Twitter.

Around 3 p.m. Tuesday, McCarthy (@JennyfromMTV) wrote, "Im so grateful for the years Jim and I had together. I will stay committed to Jane and will always keep Jim as a leading man in my heart."

Jane is Carrey's 22-year-old daughter, who just made the comedian a grandfather in late February, giving birth to son Jackson Riley Santana.

Around the same time as his former partner's tweet, Carrey (@jimcarrey) wrote, "Jenny and I have just ended our 5yr relationship. I'm grateful 4 the many blessings we've shared and I wish her the very best! S'okay! ?;^>"

McCarthy and Carrey had many a sweet day strolling on the beaches of Malibu, sharing swimsuits and playing with her son Evan, now 7.

It's no surprise the former Playboy pinup intends to remain a part of the Carrey family. She told the Ministry in December that she was thrilled to be a grandmother to Jane's baby, ring or not.

"I will be called 'grandmother,' with or without a [marriage] certificate," she said. "That baby is going to be mine!"

Jim Carrey is a grandpa! So what does that mean for girlfriend Jenny McCarthy?

As of 12:28 a.m. Friday, Jim Carrey is the grandfather of a new baby boy -- his daughter, singer Jane Carrey, delivered Jackson Riley Santana today in Los Angeles. Alex Santana, who's also in a band, is the proud dad of the 7 pound, 11 ounce kiddo.

Jane and Alex got married in November, with Jim walking his daughter down the aisle.

So what does it all mean for girlfriend Jenny McCarthy, who's been with the actor for years? After all, she does have a 7-year-old son of her own.

"I will be called 'grandmother,' with or without a [marriage] certificate," McCarthy, 37, told the Ministry back in December. "That baby is going to be mine!"

She said just last weekend that she might marry Carrey some day: "Maybe for tax purposes, someday, when we are old."

Congrats to all involved -- happy grandparenting.

Jenny McCarthy: Call me the sexiest grandmother alive

The bingo hall is about to get some serious competition -- Jenny McCarthy will soon be the hottest grandmother on record.

McCarthy, 37, turned out to West Hollywood's Hyde on Wednesday night, and we caught up with the gorgeous blond promoting her new fitness video game, Your Shape with Ubisoft.

Regarding her boyfriend Jim Carrey's soon-to-arrive grandbaby (the actor's daughter Jane is due in the new year), she says she'll thrilled to be a grandmother, officially or not.

"I will be called 'grandmother,' with or without a [marriage] certificate," she told us. "That baby is going to be mine!"

And a note to Hugh Hefner: If you want to break into the hot-grandma niche market, Jenny's all set.
