EW reports that Walk the Line actor Joaquin Phoenix is simply pretending to be in the midst of a career change from acting to music. Reportedly, the star’s buddy Casey Affleck is documenting Phoenix’s fake rap career and subsequent nervous breakdown.
A tipster claims Phoenix has said, “It’s a put-on. I’m going to pretend to have a meltdown and change careers, and Casey is going to film it.”
The butt of the joke is intended to be self-indulgent actors, as well as gossip-hungry media. I can sort of appreciate his efforts, but the truth is that farce died with reality television.
If he can pull off a stunt more ridiculous and over-the-top than something I can easily find on Brett Michaels‘ Rock of Love Tour Bus, then maybe I’ll be impressed. Either way, we get hits reporting on it, so thanks Joaquin!

He does the homeless look well.

Just substitute {rap} for {wrestling}. It’s been done.
