It's prime celebrity-spotting time in Toronto this week, and the latest movie star to be seen in a strange place is Joaquin Phoenix. The Joker actor was spotted yesterday (September 9) at St. George subway station.
 
The actor didn't "ride the Rocket," though. He went underground to check out a photo campaign in support of veganism.
 
According to the Canadian Press, Phoenix spent about five minutes looking at the black-and-white photographs of farmed animals, on display by Be Fair Be Vegan.
 
He was given a tour of the photos by Toronto Pig Save group member Anita Krajnc, who says she met Phoenix last summer at a protest at a slaughterhouse in Los Angeles.
 
He was joined by a group of approximately two dozen pro-vegan protestors and a media scrum. See some footage from onlookers below.
