You Don't Mean That

Joaquin Phoenix has had it with the movie making business, so he's devoting all his time to developing the music in his heart. At a benefit for Paul Newman last night, he told Extra TV, "I want to take this opportunity... also to give you the exclusive and just talk a little bit about the fact that this will be my last performance as an actor... I'm not doing films anymore."

I wonder how many times he hiccuped or temporarily blacked out while he said that shit? His breath probably reeked of Jack Daniels, Cloves and rubbing alcohol. Breathalyzers from miles away exploded when he opened his mouth.

When asked if he was serious, Joaquin continued to let the booze talk and said, "Yeah. I'm working on my music. I'm done. I've been through that." Joaquin's friend, Casey Affleck, chimed in, "I don't think he's kidding. He's got music and stuff."

And by "stuff" he means some good chronic and a stocked liquor cabinet.

Extra also asked Joaquin's spokesbitch who said, "That is what he told me."

Wait. He's joking, right?! This can't be true, because I really need him to star in a sequel to "SpaceCamp."

Sorry, I can't get over this. Hopefully, people who love him will get his ass in rehab STAT before he does imitate Jim Morrison's exit. If he wants to concentrate on his music, fine. But I think he's in serious denial about his addiction. I adore him and hope he gets better.

"This ain't rock n roll. This is genocide!"

Holy FUCK! Please someone tell me that Joaquin is researching his role as Jim Morrison in the last year of his life!

Uhm, thank you, but I think we are all quite aware that River was his brother.

It was Casey Affleck, as in Ben's brother. Joaquin's brother was River, who died in '93

Why does Paul Newman need a benefit?
************************************************

Maybe because he died of cancer and the benefit is for a cause he was involved in or cared about?

Oh, that's embarrassing. First, that he thinks anyone even cares.

Yeah, I think that was supposed to say "brother-in-law"...Casey's too normal a name for the Phoenix family.

I still like the guy, even if he's weird. And even if he looks like Jack Black in that picture.

I think that Mama Phoenix smoked waaaay too much weed when she was incubating the little ones in her womb. Seriously, their parents were hippies who raised them pillar-to-post all over the dope-loving world.

Imagination is more Important than Knowledge

I love that guy. He was in that old movie with Liv Tyler Inventing the Abbotts. His family is all artistic and stuff. I think he did his own singing in the Johnny Cash movie, didnt he?

M.E.'s picture

Well, I actually think he did an excellent job as Johnny Cash...

Best role - the pervy kid in "Parent Hood" LMAO!

He looks like Jack Black in this pic

Wait - he was in Space Camp - as who? I LOVE that film, but who the hell was he in it? He did have a hare lip yes, could have been due to his unusual parentage. His family were part of that horrendous cult which practised incest amongst parents and children and siblings. Loads of the kids ended up killing themselves or taking accidental drugs overdoses. Hence River Phoenix doing heroin and coke at a young age. Joaquim's a bit of an arse but so would I be if that was my childhood, I feel for him.

He has a brother named Casey?

Maybe it was Casey Affleck - he's married to Joaquin's sister ...

Seriously, did he used to have a harelip? His nose-to-mouth channel is all crooked. Anybody know the deal? Been obsessed with it since "Signs."

I'm blaming his role as Johnny Cash for this fuckery.

Shit, that bitch is lookin rough. He probably drinks and smokes enough weed to be a song writer - so more power to him. He should ring up the Crackie of Camden for some lyric ideas.
