Joaquin Phoenix Bad Rap Hoax Denied

(Hecklerspray) Over recent months, Joaquin Phoenix has retired from acting in the most hapless way possible, grown a dirty great beard, trained to become a rapper with help from Diddy, got Ben Affleck's little brother to follow him around filming it and stumbled off the edge of a stage during his first ever show. You could literally give a million monkeys a million handgrenades and none of them would ever be able to come up with anything that even comes close to approaching the spectacular stupidity of Joaquin Phoenix's rap career.

Which is why rumours are building that it's all a great big fake. A report yesterday claimed that Joaquin Phoenix is only getting up to all these shenanigans because he and Casey Affleck are pulling a big Andy Kaufman-esque art prank on everyone, and the end result will be a spoof documentary lampooning self-important stars and, we guess, the gullibility of the media.

But that's not the case at all, says Joaquin Phoenix's mouthpiece Susan Patricola. Joaquin is definitely a rapper. Definitely. MTV reports: "The transition from one career to another is never seamless. It should come as no surprise to anyone that Joaquin came from a musical family, in addition to winning a Golden Globe for his portrayal of Johnny Cash. He intends on exploring his musical interests despite speculative, negative or positive reactions." - more on this story
