joaquin phoenix quits acting grows almighty beard
In possibly the strangest celebrity behaviour in the last year, actor Joaquin Phoenix admitted he’d packed up acting to become a rapper. To make matters worse he grew a bushy beard and appeared on the Late Show With David Letterman in what can only be described as the most absent-minded interview ever. Watch it here.

\"I want you off the f**king set, you prick. No, don’t just be sorry. Think for one f**king second. What the f**k are you doing?” Possibly the funniest quote of the year, we bet Christian Bale felt sheepish when he discovered that the sound had been rolling when he had an onset rant at a crewmember. Listen here.

heidi montag and spencer pratt tie the knot
The most irritating celebrity couple of 2009 have to be Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt. The couple hit the headlines when they got hitched on The Hills (natch) before they entered the I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! US jungle. The couple caused a major ruckus in camp with their fellow celebrities. First, Spencer tried to defend Heidi’s honour when their camp mates messed with Heidi’s dry shampoo before proving he has an ego bigger than Kanye West by claiming he was the biggest celebrity in camp.

no megan fox day
Megan Fox was everywhere this year and while most men couldn’t get enough of her, some people had too much of the sultry seductress. Over a dozen websites jumped on the bandwagon when asylum.com announced 4 August 2009 as No Megan Fox Day. AskMen’s editor-in-chief James Bassill told the Daily News, “You can have too much of a good thing. We’re joining in the media blackout and giving our readers a one-day reprieve from the woman we’ve been drowning in all summer.” Surprisingly Fox has kept a low profile since.

kanye west steals taylor swifts thunder
The MTV Awards always seem to go off with a bang, but this year Kanye West managed to cause such controversy that even President Obama waded in. Country music star Taylor Swift was accepting her award for Best Female Video 2009 when Kanye West stormed the stage, unhappy with the results. The rapper-producer grabbed the mic and protested in support of Beyoncé Knowles. “I’m sorry, but Beyoncé has one of the best videos of all time,” he proclaimed, while Knowles looked on from the crowd in horror. The most embarrassing part? Knowles then went on to win Video Of The Year (we bet Kanye felt sheepish) and invited Swift onstage to give the acceptance speech Kanye robbed her of. The incident got the whole world talking about Kanye West and his oversized ego, and President Obama was even reported to have called the singer a “jackass”. Murked!
