Taking a cue from other unruly hip hop stars, Joaquin Phoenix jumped into the crowd of a Miami Beach club early Thursday and confronted an audience member who was heckling him.A disheveled Phoenix, 34, came out on stage smoking a cigarette and sporting his now trademark beard, according to The Associated Press. He was rapping unintelligibly when he became agitated, said, "We have a [double-expletive] in the audience," and jumped down into the packed LIV nightclub at the Fontainebleau Miami Beach hotel.
"I saw the guy screaming at Joaquin, and Joaquin just came down," Jorge Lledo, 30, of Miami Beach told The AP. While it was not immediately clear whether the two men exchanged any blows, security guards immediately swarmed and dragged Phoenix back on stage before escorting him away.
Casey Affleck, Phoenix's brother-in-law, filmed the whole thing, of course, causing some to suspect it was all part of an act. "[Affleck's] camera was filming the whole time, so it makes me think he has ulterior motives," said Luis Gendron, 23, of Miami.

If you watch the two videos above really closely you can tell he's acting. Also, when Casey Affleck comes on camera you can totally tell, cause he's not as good of an actor.

His roots are in a fucked up cult, Children of God. Not his fault- he's second generation. Anyway, lots of ex-Family get involved with drugs, commit suicide, etc. Phoenix was the surname they took after they quit COG, to symbolize rebirth.

so people are saying its a hoax, and people are saying its a real mid life crisis, and others are saying that its for a movie plot. I hope that its the third. haha. He doesn't seem like a bad guy, but you'd think if it was real he'd have spent more time on coming up with a new album before trying the stage.

Joaquin Phoenix's rap career is all part of an elaborate hoax, according to the eccentric movie star's closest pals. The two-time Oscar nominee recently announced he was turning his back on acting to follow his musical dreams, and he followed up the shock news with a zany three-song debut as a rapper at a Las Vegas nightclub.
During his performance on 16 January, which was captured on film by his actor brother-in-law Casey Affleck, Phoenix appeared to have a public meltdown before falling off the stage.
But pals insist the Walk The Line star knows exactly what he's doing - and his performance was all part of an "art project".
One close friend tells Entertainment Weekly magazine, "He said, 'It's a put-on. I'm going to pretend to have a meltdown and change careers, and Casey is going to film it.'
"It's an art project for him. He's going full out. He probably has told his reps that he's quit acting. Joaquin is very smart. This is very conscious. He has a huge degree of control."
