Joaquin Phoenix to retire from acting for music career (Video)

 

Here’s a pretty strange video of (a perhaps stoned) Joaquin Phoenix talking to E! Online about quitting acting for a music career. In the clip, Phoenix says he’s done acting, to which the person interviewing him unwisely starts chuckling, making Phoenix walk off in a huff.

 

Apparently Phoenix wants the opportunity to make music as lasting as this, as opposed to making films as great as this. Bon voyage Joaquin. Talk to Billy Bob Thornton about his band. [via Idolator]

Oh dear. I agree with the interviewer, it's hard to tell whether he's being serious or extremely deadpan. Hopefully the latter.

It'd be awesome. People would talk to me about how stupid it is for me to give up a stable career for one that is sure to make me a punch line for blog posts in the future.
