OK, let’s recap who came to Miami this week and made a scene, shot a scene or stole the scene.
Thursday morning Joaquin Phoenix started an Internet riot when he leapt off the stage at LIV and “attacked a fan.” The Grizzly Adams-wannabe is being called out yet again by the “Post” for playing it up in front of the cameras for a documentary Casey Affleck is putting together. Because it all happened right after his bizarre Letterman appearance, we have to agree we smell something fishy, and it isn’t the beard, Phoenix. But thanks for adding to the running Miami-crazies tally. We appreciate it.
Friday night got an indecent proposal when Demi Moore rolled into town to, as Scene in the Tropics points out, debut her 16-minute film, “Streak.” The short stars her daughter Rumer and hit the big screen at Regal South Beach. Not much in terms of other news about the mom-tress being about town has surfaced. Maybe it’s because her perfectly sculpted bod helps her fit right in with the other surgically enhanced SoBe locals.
Bongos Cuban Café wasn’t just alive with salsa and skirt steak this week. It was all a twitter with a new couple alert. Seems Kansas City Chiefs’ Larry Johnson is feelin' the love of Rozonda Thomas (a.k.a. TLC’s Chilli). The couple downed some bubbly and shunned the paps Thursday night at the Estefan establishment.
Ah, Britney Spears. The worst she did this time she was in town was strut into Azul in booty shorts and a bikini top. As Scene in the Tropics highlights, Spears was refused service and instead asked to dine at Cafe Sambal. Booty shorts and a bikini top. Trust us, we’ve seen far worse from Spears. At least she’s keeping it covered these days, and we think that deserves a dish or two from Azul.
And last but certainly not least, South Beach went country ‘yall when Kenny Chesney rolled into the Raleigh to film his latest video. The crooner, whom zimbio.com caught sans hat (yes, there’s a chrome dome under there), is a total recluse when it comes to the paps. If you even heard about the shoot, you’re one step ahead of most, you little gossipmonger you.
