Jim Carrey says goodbye to his home in Los Angeles. “For three decades it was a haven for me, but now I don’t spend much time there and I want someone else to enjoy it like I do,” the 61-year-old actor told The Post newspaper.

“Cha cha cha cha cha … Changes,” he added, referring to David Bowie’s iconic song.

The Canadian-born comedian, known for his role in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, bought the five-bedroom, nine-bathroom home in 1994 for $3.8 million. The property went on the market for $28.9 million.
