Joaquin Phoenix's meltdown: Elaborate joke or serious problem?

What's going on here? Months after Joaquin Phoenix's public statement that he's retiring from acting, the troubled star shows up in Vegas to give us a taste of his "rap career," leaving everyone in the audience horrified as he chokes through a song and then falls on his face leaving the stage. Not to mention, he is looking less and less the sex pot that we all knew and loved. Some are speculating that Joaquin (seen here with P. Diddy and Ben Affleck's bro, Casey) is playing a Sasha Baron Cohen-esque prank, but I'm not so sure about this one. He seems like he's on some serious drugs, or something.

Mickey Rourke wins Golden Globe, thanks dogs

Talk about a comeback! No sooner did I hear Susan Saranden say his name and think whoa, wouldn't that be crazy, that the man himself was up there accepting his award. Now, some may find it strange that the once hot, suddenly cool again actor thanked his dogs for being there for him during his tougher days, but sitting here with my cookies and milk after getting dumped by an evil male for the 50th time, I gotta say, your pet really is the best when it comes to hard times! :/

Travolta Family Tragedy

By now you've all heard about the tragic passing of John Travolta's son, Jett, who died while on vacation with his family this week. I knew from the start this event was going to be controversial, as people have been saying for years that Jett suffered from autism and failed to get treatment due to his parents' "religious" beliefs. I do not think his seizure was due to autism, but what I think or what happened doesn't really matter. It's tragic for anyone to lose a child so young, so I think we should be focusing more on the tragedy that is Jett's death, and not what his parents may or may not have done to cause it! R.I.P. Jett Travolta.
