Joaquin Phoenix confronts heckler
Watch This Now's own Kevin Cobb was at the Joaquin Phoenix concert last night at Fontainebleau's swanky LIV nightclub. Here's his account of what happened and expect to see more video from the confrontation on Watch This Now later in the day:
After finishing his first song, Joaquin exchanged words with a heckler in the audience. Joaquin then jumped into the crowd and security staff quickly stepped in and took him backstage. The crowd began to chant 'JOAQUIN! JOAQUIN! JOAQUIN!'.
Joaquin's behavior in Miami Beach follows his mysterious David Letterman appearance a few weeks ago.
In the photo above, you can see Joaquin (with beard and glasses) hanging out in one of LIV's not-so-private upstairs tables. With him was Willem Dafoe and Casey Affleck (in the background with video camera).
Was the whole thing staged? Probably. Did my friends and I have a good time? Definitely. And we all scored a pair of faux Ray-Bans. Just another night in South Florida.

Joaquin is succeeding at two things: attracting attention to himself and entertaining people
