Jerry Maguire star unrecognisable 27 years after hit movie and struggle with addiction

JERRY Maguire actor Jay Mohr has left fans doing a double take after he attended a basketball game in the US.

Jay, 52, played backstabbing sports agent Bob Sugar in the 1996 movie – and he looks completely different almost three decades on.

The American actor and comedian was snapped alongside his fiancée Jeanie Buss, who is president and controlling owner of the Los Angeles Lakers.

As the team took on Orlando Magic, the couple – who got engaged in December – were all smiles and even shared a kiss in the stands.

Jay showed his support to the LA Lakers with a branded baseball cap and blue Adidas tracksuit.

Sports executive Jeanie, 61, meanwhile, looked radiant in a black blouse, jeans and leather jacket, topping off her outfit with a black leather bag.

Jay has been on quite a journey since his Jerry Maguire days, which saw him starring alongside Tom Cruise and Renée Zellweger.

In 2021, the Hollywood star checked into rehab for an addiction to the prescription drug Adderall.

Jay worked hard and is now clean, but admitted following his stint that he had been an addict ‘his whole life’.

He told Spokesman in February 2022: “I was in rehab last year for an Adderall addiction, but I’ve been off it for 11 months and two weeks. I’m a better comic since I’ve gotten clean.

“I’ve been an addict my whole life. I was drinking since 1998. I wanted to be the director of my own life, and I’m finally there.”

Jay has one child, a 11-year-old son called Meredith Daniel Mohr, with his ex wife, actress Nikki Cox.
