Eva Mendes v. Joaquin Phoenix

Cat fight! I knew I was right about Joaquin Phoenix being a totally bitter diva! Eva, who co-starred in We Own The Night with Joaquin as, ironically, a couple, was interviewed and asked what it was like working with him. She said, “kind of like working with a puppy dog or a 2-year old.” Snap! If she meant that its like working with someone cute that you adore, it totally came out the wrong way. But if she meant that its like working with someone helpless and annoying, then she hit the nail on the head cause I’m thinking thats JUST how Joaquin took it. When the reporter told him what Eva said, he fired back with,

“Had I known I was supposed to be a puppy dog, I would have been much more cute and more consistently attentive. My apologies, Eva, but I had a few other scenes that you weren’t in. This puppy dog had a lot of work to do.”

Cranky! Don’t mess with Joaquin when it comes to his work! Maybe all those stories about Joaquin being lit all the time are true. He seems super moody and bitchy. But I’d say he wins this fight because Eva was being a little skeeze, knocking on Joaquin for no reason. I don’t know though.. think she deserved all that?

  • about the film: Eva simply has NO role in the movie, sometimes she walks in wearing a nice dress (or nothing) but altogether she has about 12 sentences and she acts them verrrrry badly...
