Yikes! Mel Gibson caught on tape and dropped from agency

I would be willing to believe that everyone who said that believes women are equal to men and not lesser beings... and if so, then why would it matter that it was a woman Mel was verbally abusing?

I don't look at women as equals. I look at them as superior. Not so much that we are inferior, it's just that women have a lot more going for them than we do. I have never met a man who carried a developing human inside of him for nine months, had to push it out of his body and care for it through his own breast milk (Latter is possible). From the sounds of things, it looks to me that he's angry because she's breastfeeding their baby when she has prosthetics. I've tried searching on Google to see if there were any issues related to this and have found nothing. One website even says that

"There are many ways that pregnancy and breastfeeding will affect your breast size. This applies to women with natural breasts and also those with breast implants since milk ducts are still active with or without prosthetics in the breast."

So really, it sounds like Mel is just coming up with reasons just to be upset towards the woman who's just trying to care for their child. Reasons that she most likely has already taken into account before getting her implants. That is low. If he wants to breast feed their baby, he's welcome to. It is possible.
 
Do you think his anger can be jealousy? I mean, a few times in his rant, he said he does not trust her anymore. I have been around a few friends who were very insecure and jealous when it came to their girlfriends, and they acted very similar. They tried to put their girls down, tell them what to wear, told them they looked like whores and that people would see them this way, etc... Maybe Mel is just getting old an worries that this young immature, immpressionable girl he found, is now starting to think for herself, starting to walk confidently and starting to garnish some attention from other guys. And maybe he is worried that something better will catch her eye and she will leave him. Sure they are divorcing, but most possessive guys, even after a break up, usually see the girl as their possession and sometimes stalk them and try to keep guys away.
 
oh... quick question on time lines....

Mel divorced his wife back in late 2009 right? And then he married this girl. In his rant, he told her that the last 3 years have been good to her......

so..... does that mean he was cheating for a while before his divorce?

Holy crap... good point MF. :confused
 
Ehem...:angel


My good friend who was the choreographer for the ballet company, use to house sit for the Gibsons. She would stay at their Malibu Colony house while they were all out of town. She PERSONALLY saw Mel cheating on Robin once. She never signed a confidentiality agreement but she was not the type of person to talk.


Of course, Mel cheated on his wife for years.
 
Didn't bother listening to the audio. I'm sure I'll hear it on the radio at some point. Honestly, from the stories in the past, and in this thread, Mel just sounds like a serious nutter.

I'm talking completely loony.

This stuff seems to manifest as anger issues, but who the hell knows what's wrong with the guy. That's not to say I condone any of this, or even excuse it, but it does suggest a possible explanation for why he is the way he is. I'm not quite willing to just label him as "evil" yet.....with one exception. hitting his wife. I'm sorry, but unless she's coming at you with a friggin' knife or was physically threatening the child, you don't do that. For that matter, you don't do that to anyone -- man, woman, or child.


That said, I have enjoyed and will continue to enjoy, the works that Mel has made. I'm never gonna stop loving the Mad Max films. I'm always going to enjoy Lethal Weapon (even parts 2 and 3). Braveheart, even with its ridiculous historical inaccuracies is still a fun film, and I enjoyed Apocalypto as well, as just a good cracking adventure. We Were Soldiers was decent as well. As for his future? Who knows. We've seen celebrities go off the deep end before and come back rehabilitated.

This one seems like it'd be a stretch to pull off, but hey, Marion Barry smoked crack with a hooker and got RE-elected as mayor of DC. People have an enormous capacity to forgive people that they really WISH would be different. So, maybe Mel can come back from this. Probably not, but you never know. Hell, who knows. Maybe he'll end up in some kind of treatment for this and become the spokesperson for some mental disease foundation.

Or maybe he's just an evil *****. I honestly don't know.
 
could this be the early signs of a mental illness? I am not sure of the early signs of Dimentia and such, but maybe he is starting to become dilusional... and then she presses the right buttons, he is set off.
 
I personally see it as a God complex. He's worth how many hundred million?? And he has been worth millions for over 20 years. He's obviously had issues prior and his wealth and seeming untouchability has him thinking that he can say and do whatever he wants and it will never come around to bite him. Seems a little Karma is knocking on his door and he's not going to like what it has in store for him.

Seems like a class 'A' ***** to me. Hitting his wife was an all time low. He should just buy himself a private island and live out his remaining years OUT of the Hollywood spotlight. He surely has enough to do just that.
 
I do feel bad for him. I don't feel bad that he is in this situation, he did that to himself, but I am sad that he had so much going for him, and was on top of the world career wise for so long, and he just seems to be letting it slip away. That is just plain sad....but like I said, he did bring this on himself.
 
Though Mel makes a lot of money, he is no where NEAR the hundreds of millions. I would think that he probably is worth in the $50 million range net.

Remember, if he made $20 million per picture, he gives 10-15% to his agent, 5-10% to his publicist, 5-10% to his manager, 20-25% to the IRS and THEN has to pay employees at his production company (ICON), bills, etc...

He probably would clear $7 to $10 million per picture IF he's lucky.

IS that all?? :lol I would love to have just one of those million dollars and I would be happy for the rest of my life. I would just have to learn to budget!! :lol

I think you underestimate how many people went to see that movie 'bout the guy... that made Mad Mel a whole lot o' money!

Mind you, his wives will be taking most of it!
