What happened to Mel Gibson? He used to be a bona fide movie star and family man. We loved him in the Lethal Weapon movies (remember "I'm too old for this sh*t?") Heck, he was even People's "Sexiest Man Alive" in 1985. He made women swoon and men pound their chest as William Wallace in Braveheart (still one of mine and Tom's all time favorite movies.) He was from a foreign land, had gorgeous hair (hey, mulletts were hot then) and beautiful blue eyes. He was gorgeous and every woman wanted him. But seriously, he has now gone insane.
Either he was crazy all along and had a good publicist, or he has just gone ape sh*t. First there was the controversy over "The Passion of the Christ," which I thought was an excellent movie and the controversy was blown out of proportion. Then, he was arrested for drinking and driving and saying some very off color remarks to a polic officer. Inexcusable. So I began to think, "ok, maybe he is a little crazy." Then he left his wife of 100 years and his 500 children (ok, exaggeration) to be with this hot, young, chippy. Of course, he added to his brood and had another child with her.
Now we are listening to these secretly recorded audio tapes where he is berating Oksana, his lovely young chippy, for dressing provacatively and that she will be raped by words I will not use. Seriously, Mel, WTF? You had Hollywood and the entire world in your back pocket. You were a superstar, a brilliant director and actor. Have you gone mad?
Of course, I think it is weird that she is taping their phone conversations. And I also think it is weird he sounds so strange on the line and she sounds like she is speaking into a microphone, but I am no sound expert.
Anyway, I just think Mel has lost his marbles. I'm just sayin'.
