Joaquin Phoenix left the acting business in October.  Now he has made his first public appearance as his  intro the music world on Friday.  Joaquin was quoted as saying he was ready to put his real self out there and not hide behind movie characters.

“This is me saying this is who I am. This is my story,” the actor-turned-aspiring rapper stated before taking the stage at Las Vegas club LAVO.

“After all the years of reading scripts and reading lines, this is my chance to do something straight from the heart and put it out there,” he said. And why hip-hop? “When I was young I liked punk rock music but then I discovered rap. I love the storytelling aspect of hip-hop.”

And some should stick to what they know.  This is just embarrassing.
