What's It Like Working with Penguins? Cold!
Originally posted 06/15/2011 07:45AM
One of the biggest challenges of working with a bunch of penguins is – well, you might call it cold feet.
The new movie Mr. Popper's Penguins, starring Jim Carrey and Carla Gugino, features the work of eight live penguins (in addition to some CGI penguins), and to accommodate the subarctic creatures, the film set had to be kept between 45 and 50 degrees Fahrenheit – at all times.
"Basically, the set was so cold that I was fighting pneumonia the entire time," Carrey said at a press conference for the film. "I don't even think it's really about the health of the penguins. It's cause they're method [actors]. That's what I found out."
"It was sort of selfish on their part," Gugino remarked.

They were all but inseparable starting in early 2007, but by this past April came the news that Jenny McCarthy and Jim Carrey were going their separate ways.
While others – including Hugh Hefner, a fan of the former couple's – speculated on what went wrong, Oprah Winfrey is getting right to the heart of the matter by asking McCarthy herself, "Tell me, when did you know it was over? "
In her response that airs on Tuesday's The Oprah Winfrey Show, McCarthy, 37, says, "You know, the simple word I can give – and there's a few, so let me say a few. The first thing is, when it's not fun anymore, you need to start investigating and do an inquiry into the relationship."
