Hey, what happened to Joaquin Phoenix?
You loved him as Johnny Cash. Now Joaquin Phoenix is back as the ghost of Jim Morrison.
Apparently Joaquin Phoenix is retiring from acting to focus on his music, much like beloved actor-turned-respected-musicians Kevin Costner, Kevin Bacon, Jared Leto, Billy Bob Thornton and Bruce Willis. Watch as he gives this exclusive announcement to E!, only to get mad and stalk off when the reporter basically laughs in his face:
The world just isn't ready for your genius yet, Joaquin. You know who else was viewed as an eccentric? Your older brother, River, who died of a drug overdose exactly 15 years ago today. For god's sake, man, get right in your head.

Iwish Joaquin would reconsider and stay an Actor.He was great in "Gladiator" and "Walk The Line".He could sing on the side.

This guy has always hated reporters and interviews, and always said that the lifestyle he lives is not one he enjoys. He also hates paparazzi, but hey that is the life he chose. Though now he is changing it.
