Carrey, 58, was being interviewed by Heat journalist Charlotte Long while doing press for the new Sonic the Hedgehog movie, in which he plays Dr Robotnik.
Mid-way through their chat, Long asked him: "What is left on your bucket list?"
Completely straight-faced, Carrey hit back: "Just you."
Laughing off his reply, Long said: "I don't know what to say to that."
Carrey hit back, telling her to 'just own it', to which Long responded by simply moving on, saying: "OK. I'm owning it now. OK, so bucket list. What's been your best bucket list moment?"
As the interview returned to relative normality, Carrey explained there had been many bucket list memories - things you want to do before you 'kick the bucket - saying: "I wrote a $10 million dollar cheque for services that would be rendered and that happened..."
Many people who watched the interview online praised Long for remaining professional, while branding Carrey a 'sleazebag'.
One person tweeted: "Jim Carrey is getting weirder and weirder, if that's even possible, never been a fan of his work either, but a young female interviewer asked what's left on your bucket list and he replied 'just you'... unacceptable and pretty sleazy tbh."
Another wrote: "Unfortunately it turns out Jim Carrey is a massive sleazebag."
Tweeting Long, a third said: "Such a huge [fan] of @JimCarrey but lost respect for him today. This is really unacceptable, I wish and hope he apologises to you. But you handled it really well, more power to you!"
A fourth added: "You're a pro my dear. Such a CREEP!"
Jim Carrey had also caused a bit of a stir recently when a joke he made to Margot Robbie onThe Graham Norton Show didn't go down too well with viewers at home.
The 58-year-old was sat on the couch along the Aussie actress and made a quip which insinuated she was only a huge success because of her good looks.
Turning to the I, Tonya star and said: "You're really something, Margot Robbie. It's incredible you got as far as you have with your obvious physical disadvantages. That's pure talent there. That's a talent override there."
Robbie laughed at the comment, but some viewers at home were less than impressed and took to social media to slam Carrey for the remark.
