Have you ever wondered how Jim Carrey gets into character?

Some light was thrown on that very question today, when ContactMusic.com revealed that Jim uses music to get into the 'tortured' vibe. During the filming for "The Number 23", Joel Schumacher was instrumental in obtaining a hardcore goth-rock selection for Jims Ipod and between takes, bands such as Nine Inch Nails, Einsturzende Neubauten and Slipknot inspired Jim to transform into the tormented and insane Walter Sparrow character.

Tracks allegedly used include:

Nine Inch Nails - Mr Self Destruct
Einsturzende Neubauten - Vanadium i Ching
Skinny Puppy - Addiction
Slipknot - Wait & Bleed

But what was wrong with James Blunt I ask myself? That always tortures me!!
