Britney Spears had a surprise guest at her New York City concert last night. Madonna showed up along with several body guards and her manager. Us magazine is reporting that Madonna did not want to arrive unnoticed. In fact on her way up to one of the VIP suites she took the main stair well so that people would indeed see her instead of taking a more private route which is definitely available for the VIP’s. Britney commented on her web site that she was “thrilled to have her there” but US magazine eludes to maybe Madge’s intentions were not all about Britney.  The magazine is saying that not only did Madonna leave before the end of the encore but as she left she had tons of fans around her screaming and going crazy and that during that time Madonna had “a smirk on her face”. Interesting, I wonder what Madonna was thinking and what her true intentions were.

After his appearance last night on the David Letterman show, we can only hope that Joaquin Phoenix is putting on an act. I have never seen anything like that on television before. Dave was the consummate professional but it was honestly painful to watch. Joaquin walked out in dark sunglasses and proceeded to barely even make eye contact with Dave or the audience. All his answers were, yes, no or I don’t know. He could barely name the two costars in his upcoming movie, “Two Lovers”, that he was there to promote. Dave continued to plow through the longest 10 ½ minutes of television I have seen. The silence and awkwardness was a bit alarming. If this was really him, Phoenix seems to be in big trouble. If he was acting he needs to know although a bit amusing perhaps not the best career move. After making a comment about him chewing gum, Phoenix seemed a bit miffed, took out his gum and stuck under Dave’s desk. As soon as the interview was over Phoenix jumped out of his chair and started to leave. IT was just very bizarre.
