The only really noteworthy performance he’s ever given was in Quills (and he was nowhere near the stellar brilliance of Geoffrey Rush in that film). As for his “singing” …. it’s laughable for him to think he actually has talent in that direction. His “singing” in Walk the Line was off-key and unlistenable.

Good riddance.

Joaquin Phoenix: I LOVE YOU

There is simply a birthmark on his mouth. The dude does not have a cleft palate or cleft lip. It’s a birthmark that’s all. He is otherwise way too perfect looking. Probably be too pretty without it! Joaquin is fine!

People don

Geez people, play nice already! What do a bunch of jealous, no lifers do on the weekends? Obviously this. I love this man and I will miss his acting and the way he’s screwed with all of you! Can’t wait for the c.d.!

Joaquin you will be missed on the big sreen!! I guess I’ll have to buy your cd. I enjoyed all your movies. My favorites were Ladder 49 and Walk the Line. I was so stoked that you sang your own lyrics. Good luck to your future success.

Joaquin Phoenix is a GREAT actor. Or, he was, atleast. I’ll miss his acting. I wish he would stay an actor, but, hey, what can I do? Nothing… Singing…A very interesting career turn… I’ll keep a lookout for his songs.

Joaquin Phoenix is a great actor. Or…he was, atleast. I don’t he should stop, but, hey, can I do anything? No. Singing. Interesting turn in his career… I’ll keep a lookout for his songs.

i love joaquin phoenix. he is such a great
actor, and i just know that he will make it big as a singer too. -lori

I loved walk the line and I think he would be wonderful as a singer I would buy his CD….

Wow, what a turd. I’m so sick of these engrats! Making millions playing cowboys and indians isn’t enough. Now he has dillusions of rock star. What a whacko. He could barely sing in “walk the line” ruined the movie for me. Phoenix is no Cash for sure. Oh yeah he learned to play guitar on set. What a load this guy is. Yo, Phoenix if you want to retire just retire please don’t subject us to yet more crappy “i bought my record deal with fame”, actor turned musician garbage. Please just go away maybe back to a hippie commune where morons like you are bred. You are not a southern po’ boy gone off to the big city. You’re an over paid spoiled brat who has no concept of real life and what people have to go through. Used to dig your performances now you just make me mildy disgusted.

I saw the video, he seemed mad when the reporter laughed in disbelief and said “are you serious?” He seemed very upset.

He is a very talented actor. He was good in Walk the Line and Gladiator. I wish him luck in any venture he decides.

That said, he is a screwball for being a part of the fringe animal rights movement.

To the guy who says he’s gross with a hair lip, ahhhhh he is soooooo “HOT” Are you kidding me? And yes he can sing “walk the line” Fabulous! Apparently you have not seen it or your a man and a gross one at that lol

Joaquin just learned to play the guitar while filming Walk the Line. It will be a stretch for him to make money in music but he doesn’t need any. He is having fun so let him be. Besides his brother, he just lost a good friend in Heath Ledger and the beloved Phoenix family agent Iris Burton. I am sure River is so happy for his brother.

Wow, who even cares. The only good movies he was ever in were Parenthood with Steve Martin and Gladiator. Let him rot into obscurity

Joaquin is way to young an actor to retire! The caliber of his performances are nothing short of excellent. Hopefully he’ll return after this music faze is over.
