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
Movie Reviews and Previews It’s all coming to TIFF Holy. Sh-t. More TIFF announcements, more major additions, so many world premieres at this year’s film festival including the Midnight Madness line-up and more potential award winners to the schedule covering the entire spectrum from elder Hollywood statesman to dirty tramps and roughnecks. Clint Eastwood will be in Toronto By Lainey • Aug 17, 2010 05:32 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
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
Joaquin Phoenix Dipping his feet Is that what he’s doing? Joaquin Phoenix showed up last night at “guerrilla artist” Banksy’s Exit Through the Gift Shop premiere in LA. Remember when Brange bought a Banksy for $2 million? Joaquin seems to be re-emerging slowly and clean-shaven, almost sane-looking. Almost. Last month he also hit By Lainey • Apr 13, 2010 04:46 am
Amazingness Soho House/Grey Goose Part 4 Only caught a quick glimpse of Natalie Portman and her new man. She is SO small. And that skirt is shorter than you think. The outfit also looks better than it photographs. Portman was having a word with Carey Mulligan. It was all I could do not to have a By Lainey • Mar 05, 2010 06:04 am
Hook Ups Lilo, Joaquin & Phillippe Let’s express our collective relief, again, that Joaquin Phoenix has emerged from his vain ass art project last year clean shaven and (sort of) hot again. He’s also reengaging with the Hollywood party circuit. Oh, how f-cking celebrity of you. Joaquin was spotted leaving Voyeur the other night By Lainey • Feb 02, 2010 03:34 am
Quiveration Can I love you again? Are you over yourself? You seem to be. I’m so happy! Even with the JailBait next to you, I’m so happy. Joaquin Phoenix has resurfaced. Almost a year after his bizarre foray into rap and his embarrassing appearance on Letterman, almost a year after we knew him for By Lainey • Jan 22, 2010 04:31 am
Amazingness Best & Worst of 2009: Joaquin on Letterman Remember? He was still rapping in the early part 2009, falling off stages, getting into scraps with hecklers, his embarrassing “Bye Good” from acting obliterated the good will he’d earned from Walk the Line and other films, a respectable artist now reduced to a punchline, so low he was By Lainey • Dec 14, 2009 02:45 am
Twilight Don’t hate the replacement Twilight Eclipse cast members continue to acclimate to Vancouver – it was Bryce Dallas Howard who was spotted yesterday after a workout, getting into training mode to play the aggressive Victoria. As you know, Bryce recently replaced Rachelle Lefevre and as you also know, Twi-Hards tend to fixate unreasonably on matters By Lainey • Aug 05, 2009 03:15 am
Girly Throw Downs GOOPy or Douchey? Tough call for you, isn't it? One's an elitist condescending, allegedly undeserving bitch, the other a wastebag ingrate making a mockery of music and his entire career... How to choose? GOOPy or Douchey? Well it's obvious for me. GOOPs of course. You know I By Lainey • Mar 16, 2009 08:26 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
Award Season Hair 2009 Oscars 2009 Wrap-Up They said they would shake things up. Well, they shook up some parts, but it still ended up being too long. And, more importantly, FEELING too long. The entire middle section was Benjamin Button. So there is no way Danny Glover stayed awake. None. Hugh Jackman? If I’m honest, By Lainey • Feb 22, 2009 11:06 pm
Douchebags Celebrity Dumbass: Joaquin Phoenix See? Three for three. Maybe it should be a daily feature. It’s must see TV. The video is below – Joaquin Phoenix behaving like a petulant child forced to go Aunt Mabel’s house last night with Letterman. No doubt he’s a douche. But the question this morning, on By Lainey • Feb 12, 2009 01:58 am
