" American Idol' viewers were first introduced to a woman who said she was a mom and a waitress , but then revealed she's also Jim carrey's daughter , Jane .Jennifer Lopez had a little bit of a freak-out because she remembered Jane as a baby from when the "American Idol" judge and Jim Carrey were both on "In Living Color ."
The younger Carrey noted that ever since she was a kid she was a "huge ham" and that she loves to be on stage .
She added that being the daughter of a famous actor "definitely helps and hurt ," explaining , "There's this pressure to be better " because people will invariably think she got where she is because of the name .
Jane then performed "Something to Talk About," and was voted onto the next round .
Moments later she was shown on her cell phone with her dad , who congratulated her and said , "This is really going to be an exciting year."
