Mar 12 2009Joaquin Phoenix makes art until someone gets punched in the face
Joaquin Phoenix continues to shatter our perception of reality by pretending to beat up a fan at his "concert" last night in Miami, according to the AP:
He began rapping to a beat played by the DJ and nodding to the music, although most of the lyrics were unintelligible. Then he responded to someone who appeared to be heckling him in the audience near the stage.
"We have a (double-expletive) in the audience," he said before jumping into the crowd. It was not immediately clear whether the two men exchanged any blows.
"I saw the guy screaming at Joaquin, and Joaquin just came down," said Jorge Lledo, 30, of Miami Beach.
Joaquin yells at the guy "I've got millions of dollars in my fucking bank account, what do you got?" which lets me know right away this is a farce. With a cleverly-masked by a "documentary" heroin addiction like Joaquin's, he's lucky if has five maybe 10 bucks. Or a suitcase full of Pop Tarts.

You can Joaquin out of the ghetto, but you can't take the hairlip...
nevermind.

That whole Phoenix family is completely fucked up. That's what happens when you allow hippy liberal nutjobs to raise kids and also name them. They deserve to wallow in their own misery. Fuck em all. I hope he dies from an overdose outside the Viper Room too.

What a douchebag. David Letterman should have kicked his ass too.

8. Richard McBeef - March 12, 2009 10:16 AM
Joaquin is so cool. I saw his profile and picture at www.smiletrain.org. I wonder what he is doing there?

I hope the guy he "beat up" takes Wackeems millions in a nice big lawsuit.

Wow, that was easily the most poorly written post of 2009. Way to keep lowering the bar.
Learn some fuckin' English.
16. Charlie Caligula - March 12, 2009 10:53 AM
So fake. Kaufman would be ashamed.

ITS HAPPENING..
18. M_Phelps - March 12, 2009 11:19 AM
Some B-lister making a fool of him/herself, and a thousand camera phones to post/blog with. For Miami, that's some quality entertainment.
19. AndyisDEAD - March 12, 2009 11:20 AM
What a little pussy to start the fight and then yell for his security guards to "get him off me!" waahh.........
20. Ally - March 12, 2009 11:22 AM
I love his songs, Well, he looks really cool and man taste, I am wondering if he has a profile on the millionair e c l u b---"R i c h S i n g l e . N e t "? I saw a man"jackhey00" looks like him very much, he must attract a lot of girls there.
21. dooley - March 12, 2009 11:24 AM
I'm jealous - he's got that many pop-tarts?
22. Mdiz - March 12, 2009 11:35 AM
Kaufman would love this shit! Nobody has ripped off Andy yet, so kudos to the bearded one for trying. (Poorly i might add) It's nice to see someone at least trying. We have enough Brits, Paris.....(Insert useless meatsack here)
23. Jeff - March 12, 2009 11:46 AM
I love his new single, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f9-ac6qO94c
It's not really him but that's just another layer on the joke of his life right now.
24. Evil O. - March 12, 2009 11:48 AM

Jesus Christ....can't he just go back to being Hot, Brooding, Seething-Good Looks Joaquin instead of Weirdo Joaquin?
27. Markus - March 12, 2009 12:43 PM
He's pathetic.
28. @23 - March 12, 2009 1:28 PM
Great video! He is crazy as fuck!
29. Rat Boyd - March 12, 2009 1:32 PM
It's fairly safe to say that Joaquin Phoenix keeps it RAL. Does he think he's Axl Rose here? www.ikeepsitral.com
30. Richard McBeef - March 12, 2009 1:44 PM
@29 - your website is major gay. the only thing being kept RAL around there is a huge cock RAL deep in your ass.
31. Rough Daddy - March 12, 2009 2:31 PM
This whole shtick he's been doing is the best acting of his career so far...
32. slipl0c0 - March 12, 2009 2:40 PM
@ 31 ...
aww come on .. signs was the shit ..
no, seriously.
it was shit.
33. Harry Crackpipe - March 12, 2009 2:46 PM
Cheesy, very cheesy, and cheap, very very cheap. No talent on display, none at all.
Clearly he's creatively challenged. He needs somebody else to write and direct while he acts, that is if he ever gets to act again. He has no imagination whatsoever.
This was just pathetic and stupid.
34. ctm - March 12, 2009 3:18 PM
I was actually staring at chick in the blue dress the whole time. Nice tits!
35. RMC - March 12, 2009 3:45 PM

46. fel - March 12, 2009 7:17 PM
Since he's updated the Tony Clifton act, up next, he'll have to start wrestling women and then start a fight with someone from WWE.
One can only hope he will continue the Kaufman love, and develop lung cancer and die.
47. Rob - March 12, 2009 9:13 PM
I actually like him a lot now. Good for him. If I were a famous actor, i'd be doing the same thing for no other reason just to amuse myself.
48. --Jack - March 12, 2009 9:15 PM
Correction: "HAD a million dollars." Within six months, that'll be evenly split between the putz in the audience and some personal injury attorney.
It's like the hydrolytic cycle, but with money. From the poor to the rich, where it all condenses in a cloud and rains back down to the poor again. Sure am glad I paid attention in school. Now I just need to stand under a famous person and taunt my way to wealth!

It's not working.
You're not "edgy."
You're not "underground."
Your'e not "laughing at us from behind the mask"
This isn't a grand experiment, and you don't have the ability to pull off such a thing. Your buddy Affleck doesn't have the skill either.
We know you're a joke.
We know you pay actors and crowd members for reactions and photo ops.
It's not working.
Your only entertainment value is that of an epic failure.
Also,..there are many morons in the world who are rich (Paris Hilton) it's not a good indicator of any "real" worth as a person.

Bickus Dickus -You're a real asshole. Those children had a very traumatic childhood and don't deserve anything they were put through. Do you even know anything about the life they were put through? PROBABLY NOT.
If he's really going off the deep end then I feel bad. I really think it's a hoax though.
56. Dave R - March 23, 2009 3:25 PM
His career is over. Guess he thought he'd be "legit" like Cash by making a complete mess of his life. With luck like this he'll end up like his brother too.

Joaquin Phoenix is too deep for anyone to understand what he is doing with his career right now
