Ahh, he's having a laugh. Remember last year when he was saying he was married? He's having a joke. I wonder if the guy's aware that he's probably caused a load of women to break down weeping.
Anyway, if you want to look at it logically:
Why's she never been seen with him?
How are they "getting married" after two months? (He was still with Allie in September.)
Why was he in New York on his own?
Why's there been nothing from his friends or family about it? Allie was often commenting on Rain's photos and Rain was commenting on Allie's. There were even photos of them together. I think if Joaquin was serious with anyone, they'd be meeting his family.
This is Joaquin and Letterman. I think we all remember the pretty big hoax he pulled off on there one time.
He's said multiple times he makes stuff up while he's being interviewed and jokes about stuff. (Big one being the "Kitten" nickname.) Judging from the way he said this, laughing his head off, he was joking around.
He did the same thing last year, and caused a panic. :) Remember when he told several reporters he'd got married and he was looking forward to the future and everything else? And everyone believed him until his publicist had to tell one of them it was completely untrue? They never made an official announcement about it, but it's what happened last time. He never said anything to disprove it. The guy's got a wacky sense of
humour. Been proved many times.
So nah. He was having a joke. I'll believe it when I see her walking down the red carpet with him, with a ring on her finger and with her name revealed. But I think, even bypassing all the other stuff, if a relationship was that serious, she'd be with him now. And so yeah. I think he's probably not anticipated the huge reaction at all. :) I don't know if he's still with Allie, but I don't think he's with anyone new. (Also, we've had reports of him going to strip clubs with his friends-doesn't sound like he's over-the-moon obsessed with a new woman!)
So yeah. Oh, Joaquin. How many times have you nearly given us all heart attacks now?
