Didn't Marv bite out of arousal more than out of anger...

Well, Julie, I wasn't there but I remember it being extremely unwanted and traumatic for the other person.

Hmm, didn't remember all the details (and plan to forget them asap)

Joaquin Phoenix was a hotter than hot mess on Letterman last night.

That was a painful hot mess Tish. I am glad I remembered to TiVo his show last night.

The buzz on Joaquin is that he's become a rapper (!) and his buddy Casey Affleck is filming him for a documentary. No one knows if he's serious or pulling an Andy Kaufmann type joke. I used to have a mad crush on him cause I like the weird ones.

Caught it on youtube this morning. Right at the end he stands up, turns to Letterman, takes off the sunglasses and leans in to speak. Did anyone who watched it on TV see a longer clip of that? Looked like he was going to explain the *joke* to Letterman but ended too soon to be certain. After what happened to his brother... it's heartbreaking to think he would put himself on the same path.

Wow, that's unbelievable. I almost think it's more a mental issue with him, and if he's on drugs that makes it much worse.

What a shame.

Letterman was cute with his apology to Farrah Fawcett.

I think he was doing a bit. I don't think he was high.

I heard on news today that Rianna was beaten so badly her eyes were almost swollen shut. She had to have been beaten for awhile. Poor thing

If I remember correctly, he has some kind of stage fright thing. If he and John Travolta did a fireman movie together, then I think I am right. JT was talking about him a bit on Oprah. He (Joaquin) has some anxiety issue. Now that may or may not be related to that hot mess last night. And I might even have the whole thing wrong, but maybe it explains some of it.

Letterman always gets the crazies. Remember when that guy from Back to the Future (Glover?)almost kicked him? He was so pissed

OMG, Tish! What a blast from the past for me! I have such a story about that particular show.

One of my sons had just been born, and I was doing the up all night thing, plus medicated from having had a C-section. So, I was tending to the baby and that show came on. I had never seen Letterman before and I was, like, What. the. heck??? The whole thing, with John Candy coming out and everything. Crazy. In the morning, I wondered if I had hallucinated the whole thing. I wondered that for a LONG time.

Then, a couple of years later, another baby came and there was a re-run of that show!! Cracked me up! And I knew that I had not hallucinated that first show.

Thanks for bringing that fond memory back to me!!

Julie, you're correct about the movie he and Travolta did together and about Joaquin's stage fright. I want to say the interview I saw was on Oprah and they had some of the real firefighters involved in the movie. I don't thing Joaquin said more than a handful of words.

And wasn't it that Joaquin would not come out unless John was there?? Like JT had to literally hold his hand???

I don't know about that but I do remember how quite and shy-like he was acting

Wow, one person suggests he is on drugs and everyone assumes that it is so! Letterman gets his laughs by treating someone crappy, so Joaquin didn't react to his crappy routine. Cudos to Joaquin.

If I remember right, Joaquin was always shy.. just because he changed his look dosent mean he changed his personality...
But I do prefer his old look, but to each his own..

I really think Joaquin was trying to create a moment here. I think he knows exactly what he's doing. It's a little eccentric, but I think he thinks he's "creating art." I wouldn't be surprised if the interview shows up in the "documentary" Casey Affleck is creating about Pheonix's "rapping" career.

I watched Joaquin on Letterman and truly felt bad for him. I don't think he was on drugs .. although he may have been medicated. I just think he was incredibly uncomfortable. And I've read that he may have been very, very tired.

Joaquin is a tormented man. He's been a tormented man ever since he watched his brother Phoenix die. I don't know if drugs are involved here, but I think he's going through a breakdown, I really do. There's a slim chance this is all a "joke" for his documentary but I think the documentary is just part of this fantasy world he's created around himself to try to cope. I am so worried about him.

I think Joaquin's stuff goes much farther back. Their family belonged to a cult group called "The Family" (also called "Children of God"). That group is quite twisted, to say the least. One "technique" they used to recruit was called "flirty fishing" or sending out young people to prostitute themselves for god, to recruit people. (this was girls sent out)

I think it was all a ruse to make Dave uncomfortable. Either that, or Joaquin really doesn't like Dave.

I like this clip of Joaquin.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YixuG4F9rZg&NR=1

He is such a good actor, I think he could pull of this attitude, unless he was completely out of it, which I don't think he was because he was walking normally when he came out, and not constantly fidgity in his chair.

IIRC Mr Phoenix sought treatment for addiction of some kind a few years ago.

The most surprising thing to me, though, is that Mr Phoenix looked like a rabbi. Dave was great! He has such great timing. "Why is it that you're quitting acting?"

"Umm."

[pause]

"I don't know"

"Oh so you have given it some thought."

LOL
