Posted Jan. 19, 2009

It remains to be seen whether congratulations or an intervention is in order for Joaquin Phoenix, who demonstrated his rap skills (yeah, you read that right -- rap) in Las Vegas on Friday night, about two months after he announced he was retiring from acting to pursue his music dreams.

Joaquin Phoenix channels Jerry Garcia and a latter-day Jim Morrison with decidedly mixed results. (

[jbot]

wow, i'm speechless. he looks like crap.

[Paper Clip Guy]

He looks horrible now, what the f*ck?

Paper Clip Guy

[crounsa810]

I read somewhere that this was all a big hoax thing & that he's really doing it for some movie.

[JayGuevara]

Was that Mel Gibson's brother in Signs and Johnny Cash? :confusedshrug:

[NoGunzJustSkillz]

wtf with the title man

[catzhernandez]

What a stupid ****ing thread title. Please shut up, we know he quit acting months ago.

Stupid, stupid title. :banghead:

[Chamberlain]

Was that Mel Gibson's brother in Signs and Johnny Cash? :confusedshrug:

Yeah, same guy.

[InspiredLebowski]

Seems like a stunt to get some footage for an upcoming mockumentary, Walk Hard style.

[-primetime-]

I read the thread title and went straight to CNN.com without even opening this...

:rant

lol me2...i originally posted this was the only site reporting this news..than i read the op...stupid title indeed.

[v-unit]

You're just gay Catz.

I didn't think of the possibility for a movie, would be interesting to see though. I don't know how he would fare in a comedy though.

[SCREWstonRockets]

haha i'm going to check for his album.

[catzhernandez]

Ah, it all makes sense now. :rolleyes:

Nice insult, kiddo.

[3.2.1.]

lol @ title

[PistolPete]

I read somewhere that this was all a big hoax thing & that he's really doing it for some movie.

You are correct. This is a hoax.

[crounsa810]

lol @ new title. Weird fat bearded guy lol

[MarloStanfield]

Casey Affleck (his brother in law) has been filming Joaquin since he decided to quit acting. Apparently Joaquin has been literally having a mental break down and this is no publicity stunt.

[v-unit]

Catz, straight up, you're lame and I couldn't care less about what you have to say

[ConanRulesNBC]

He's a decent actor I don't know why he would give that up. Maybe he hung around Marky Mark too much on the set of their movie?

[catzhernandez]

Catz, straight up, your lame and I couldn't care less about what you have to say
Just when I thought you FINALLY learned your homonyms, you go and **** it all up.

[Showtime]

Is he trying to look like Zach Galifinakis?

Absolutely one of the most excruciating interviews I've ever witnessed.

Absolutely one of the most excruciating interviews I've ever witnessed.
Nah, I reckon Letterman's interview with Crispin Glover was worse then that.

[RidonKs]

Nah, I reckon Letterman's interview with Crispin Glover was worse then that.
:oldlol: Never saw the before. That's just hysterical.

According to this... that wasn't even him in the original interview? Just some random guy they met at an observatory? :oldlol:

[NoGunzJustSkillz]

wow i had no idea joaquin and river were brothers.

[kentatm]

Have We Been Punk'd by Joaquin Phoenix and Casey Affleck? (http://www.cinematical.com/2009/01/28/have-we-been-punkd-by-joaquin-phoenix-and-casey-affleck/)

its very possible this is a hoax.


Andy Kaufman used to do this kind of stuff all the time.

anyone ever seen the very underrated Jim Carrey flick Man on the Moon?

[Gunnin4HoLeS]

This thread is funny, serously though when it originally was titled SUICIDE i went to yahoo to check that sh!t out. Then I came in and realized it was a lie. On the real Phoenix was an underrated actor and to me this is a stunt. You see his performance in SIGNS?? bowdown please

[jbot]

i'm thinking it's an elaborate hoax.

[catzhernandez]

i'm thinking it's an elaborate hoax.
Agreed.
