Joaquin Phoenix's bizarre behavior continues. He appeared on "Late Show With David Letterman" to promote his upcoming (rumored to be) last film "Two Lovers", co-starring Gywneth Paltrow. He can still act alright - like an ass. He was rude, monosyllabic and childish - at one point sticking his chewed gum underneath Letterman's desk. Dave, the ever-classy professional, rolled with it best he could, closing the interview with, "Sorry you couldn't be here tonight, Joaquin." You can watch Phoenix terrorize Letterman here. UPDATE: Some media outlets are claiming his recent poor behavior is all a big hoax on the part of Phoenix and his brother-in-law, Casey Affleck, who has been filming a documentary of Joaquin's recent rap performances. I hope so, for the sake of Joaquin's health, but it really doesn't seem funny. Reportedly it's Joaquin's bid to prove how easily the media buys into things. Wow, thanks for the lesson!
