Academy Award-nominated Best Actor and Mockumentary Maker Joaquin Phoenix inches out fellow thespian Brad Pitt (33% and 31%). This duo was followed by another of late night talk show fame, Conan O'Brien and David Letterman (21% and 11%) and Radiohead's
there have been many memorable moments on The Late Show with David Letterman -- Drew Barrymore dancing atop Dave's desk and flashing him, an estranged Sonny & Cher reuniting to sing “I've Got You Babe,” and Joaquin Phoenix's bizarre appearance,
Before al-Barsrawi, the last person offended by Letterman was Joaquin Phoenix, and that was staged over two years ago. Haven't terrorists heard of comedic license? You gotta take those slaughter jokes with a grain of salt.
