Joaquin Phoenix

With Valentine's Day almost upon us, we're wearing our hearts on our sleeves and writing an open letter to Joaquin Phoenix.

Because after seeing the Walk The Line star's recent interview on the Late Show With David Letterman, we feel we need to reconnect with him.

We think she might have done...

It's all too easy to get caught up by Liv Tyler's luverly face when you look at snaps of her.

The people have spoken.

And Reese Witherspoon has been voted the female movie star of the year.

What the Dickens? That mop doesn't look like it belongs to Chris Martin.

Hola, Eva Mendes, it's always nice to see ya.

But whoa there lovey, we don't want to view too much of you.

Come closer, Eva Mendes is about to share a secret with you.

And it's of a sexual nature...

Despite being hotly tipped to scoop the board, Brokeback Mountain picked up none of the awards it was nominated for at the 2006 SAG awards.

In the TV gongs, Felicity Huffman was voted the funniest of those Desperate Housewives and Kiefer Sutherland won best actor for 24.

Blimey, last time we saw this fella he was a cute kid getting freaked out about noises in the fields near his house.

In a fictional sense, that is.

Move over sexy soap stars - a new "sexiest celebrity" list has arrived at Showbiz HQ.

Once associated with sandals and lentils, vegetarianism is now oh-so-Hollywood...

When it comes to the big award ceremonies, comedies don't usually get much of a look in.

But for MTV, it's not just the worthy and serious films that count.

Racial tension got everyone hot under the collar at this year's Oscars.

The judging experts named Crash as their best picture, pipping the bookies' favourite Brokeback Mountain to the post.

Brokeback Mountain is nominated for eight awards at the Oscars.

As predicted, Ang Lee's gay cowboy movie is up for some of the biggest accolades - best film, best director, best actor for Heath Ledger, best supporting actor for Jake Gyllenhaal and best supporting actress for Michelle Williams.

Walk The Line star Joaquin Phoenix is rumoured to be more than just friends with his latest co-star.

He is currently filming movie We Own The Night with hottie Eva Mendes in New York and the pair have been spotted out on the town.

It's finally here: the Johnny Cash bio-pic Walk The Line hits cinemas this week. Tim Evans takes a look at the Oscar contender, starring Joaquin Phoenix and Reese Witherspoon.

Four times nominated George Clooney went home gongless and Brit flick The Constant Gardener didn't capitalise on its whopping ten nominations.

In the end the 2006 Baftas belonged to Brokeback Mountain.

Brokeback Mountain just pipped Walk The Line to the Golden Globe post with four gongs.

And although some of the British big hopes such as Keira Knightley and Judi Dench will be putting their ornaments back on the mantelpiece, Rachel Weisz walked away with the best supporting actress gong.

It wasn't a night for blockbusters at this year's Golden Globes.

Instead it was glory for westerns and country and westerns with Brokeback Mountain and Walk The Line winning most of the gongs - and a special moment for British star Rachel Weisz.

Could Kirsten Dunst and Jake Gyllenhaal have rekindled their romance?

The Donnie Darko star and Mona Lisa Smile actress were dating for around two years, before announcing that they had split last July.

It's the biggest indication of what might happen at the Oscars - and it looks like 2006 could be a bumper year for Brokeback Mountain.

It leads the nominations in the film categories with seven mentions.

Reese Witherspoon and Joaquin Phoenix fell out during filming of their latest movie - because Joaquin couldn't bear Reese's singing.

The couple started arguing when they took singing lessons together for Johnny Cash biopic Walk The Line.

Joaquin, who plays Johnny Cash in a new movie based on the life of the country singer, developed alcohol dependency during filming.

He saw his brother die tragically young because of his hedonistic lifestyle.

Now actor Joaquin Phoenix has checked himself into rehab in a bid to win his long battle with the booze.
