Joaquin Phoenix snagged headlines this week while strolling around Rome in matching Converse and skinny jeans with his young—very young—lover. At nineteen, DJ Allie Teilz is exactly twenty years his junior, according to an article in the Daily Mail.

Perhaps the Walk the Line actor didn't know her age when they met. 

Is love truly blind, or do you think some age gaps are simply too vast to bridge?
