BFFs Festival bromantic Ben Affleck and Jeremy Renner are in Venice to promote The Town. Casey Affleck is in Venice to promote I’m Still Here. Joaquin Phoenix is in Venice but didn’t seem to show at the photo call or the premiere of his own movie – at least I can’t By Lainey • Sep 07, 2010 09:11 am

Douchebags Assholes, the poster Joaquin Phoenix’s face – if you can call it that – is featured on the poster for I’m Still Here just released today and Casey Affleck’s name also gets listed on the bottom. He directed it but the way it appears here it’s like an acting credit. They’ By Lainey • Aug 04, 2010 09:38 am
Baby and Bump Obsession I am not my brother Casey Affleck’s messy legal battle is getting worse. Another lady who worked on the set of his Joaquin Phoenix doc is suing him for being a sexual freak, allegedly sneaking up on her in the middle of the night and getting into bed and demanding to sleep with her.

Hollywood Drugs About that Casey Affleck situation He’s being sued by a former producer on his Joaquin Phoenix documentary I’m Not Here. Amanda White says she was sexually harassed by Joaquin’s bff and brother-in-law, claiming she was fired for not f-cking him. According to White, she was terminated when she rejected Casey’s demand By Lainey • Jul 26, 2010 06:51 am
Smutty Surgery Nothing remarkable here This is Kate Hudson on the set of Something Borrowed today in New York wearing a Housewife of Something costume with her hair extra curly. Looks like she’s going to a barbecue over at the Jones’s house down the street. She will bring a salad. Manslinger is working By Lainey • May 26, 2010 08:13 am
Douchebags Bye Good: the mockumentary Obviously. It was a joke. Some kind of lame construct to expose something about Hollywood, something about the way everyone reacted to his behaviour, his attempt to become a rapper. Like there was any question that it was a poorly conceived “artiste” endeavour concocted by guitar and candlelight one night By Lainey • May 06, 2010 05:27 am
Douchebags Joaquin scuffle That loser was in Miami last night “performing”. Was heckled from the crowd and deservedly so which prompted Joaquin to jump the dude. Melee ensued, Phoenix is hauled away, Casey Affleck naturally shot the whole thing, and they probably laughed about it at the hotel afterwards the entire night. Some By Lainey • Mar 12, 2009 02:45 am
Douchebags Would you want him next to you? Joaquin Phoenix and Casey Affleck departed LAX for New York yesterday. Imagine if he sat down next to you on a plane? This is my greatest fear on a flight. The people around me, the person next to me. As you know, I always end up with the kid close By Lainey • Feb 11, 2009 02:44 am
Douchebags Hoax camouflage So yesterday, Entertainment Weekly, after hearing from Joaquin Phoenix sources, reported that his recent rap journey is actually an elaborate hoax to be filmed by Casey Affleck for a mockumentary about celebrity meltdowns. Today, Joaquin’s publicist is denying that his intentions are anything but sincere: "The transition from By Lainey • Jan 29, 2009 03:33 am
Douchebags Not sad smut, just big douche Many of you kind hearted souls were worried about Joaquin Phoenix - his unkempt appearance, his BYE GOOD retirement, his bizarre antics - and you appealed to have him classified as sad smut. JP is not sad smut. But he is a f-cking loser. So the rap endeavour, his explanation By Lainey • Jan 28, 2009 05:13 am
Douchebags The Year of Living Rap Ugh. What happened to Joaquin Phoenix? As you know, he said BYE GOOD to acting and instead has chosen to document his attempt to become a rap artist – yes, a rap artist – with bestie Casey Affleck. Apparently hip-hop is his life’s love, and he is now dedicated to pursuing By Lainey • Jan 19, 2009 01:02 am
Best of 2008 Worst of 2008: Bye Good Joaquin Phoenix Just last night in Miami – this is Joaquin Phoenix. Oh Joaquin… It’s the elastic holding back half his hair that twists the knife in your heart, non? As you know, Joaquin recently announced his “retirement” from acting, spelling it out for us on his hands: BYE GOOD. He’s By Lainey • Dec 31, 2008 02:44 am
Jessica Alba All smiles on a night out Jessica Alba and her husband were spotted out and about yesterday no baby and then extended their free night on the town at Crown Bar and then Bardot. As you can see, she actually smiled. Jessica Alba is in good spirits. She starts shooting The Killer Inside Me in a By Lainey • Dec 30, 2008 02:32 am
Douchebags He raps? So Joaquin Phoenix said he was retiring from acting to focus on music. We all made the assumption that he would slowly fade away based on his reclusive personality and his handwriting a few weeks ago: BYE GOOD. Happily this does not seem to be the case. Even the ones By Lainey • Nov 26, 2008 02:48 am
Joaquin Phoenix One Lover Won’t Promote Oh there he is. While Gwyneth Paltrow has dutifully performed red carpet responsibilities for their film Two Lovers in Cannes and most recently in London last week, Joaquin Phoenix has been missing for months, finally turning up last night at a star studded benefit in San Francisco, arriving with close By Lainey • Oct 28, 2008 03:01 am
