Mel Gibson, the Catholic second son of a large Catholic family, has been served divorce papers by his wife, Robyn. Christmas dinner’ll be fun this year.
We’re sure that Robyn Gibson has a very successful and fulfilling career of her own. Sadly, neither we nor you know what it is (we have a horrible suspicion that that is unless you have recently had cause to redecorate an expensive Los Angeles house and wished to know how this affected your feng shui). Anyway, she has served divorce papers on one Mel “Lethal Weapon” Gibson.
Oh yeah, now you’re interested.
We predicted years ago that Mel Gibson, out of all the 80s/90s action movie stars, would be the one to go on to become a drunken misogynistic anti-Semite. If only we’d put some money on it, we’d be rich. Mind you, we’d have taken a hit on our other bets: we also reckoned that Arnold Schwarzenegger‘s ridiculous lower jaw muscles would eventually go into tetanus and he’d starve to death, and that by 2003 all the bits of Spam from which Sylvester Stallone‘s face is whittled would disintegrate or be eaten by dogs. Swings and roundabouts.
No, Mel the Mullet it was. We feel sure that an upbringing in Australia is not the best way to instill a respect for other religions and the fairer sex (i.e. Jews and birds) into an impressionable male youth, but surely that can’t be the whole reason for Mel’s famous tragicomic response to being stopped for what the lawyers call ‘driving while drunk as a Russian submariner on shore leave in St Vodkaburg’. For your continued delight, here is what Mel had to say to the police:
“I’m not going to get in your car…You motherfucker. I’m going to fuck you…Fucking Jews…The Jews are responsible for all the wars in the world. Are you a Jew?…What do you think you’re looking at, Sugartits?”
Hahaha! ‘Fucking Jews’, gets us every time. Oh Mel, you hilarious wisecracking drunk.
Maybe sick of his constant anti-Jew/-ladies-with-sugartits rants, or perhaps tired of hearing about ‘this one time when Danny Glover totally cracked up while we were filming this like really serious scene!’, Mel’s wife (unconfirmed feng shui expert Robyn Gibson) has thrown a great big divorce bomb at him.
Not only that, but a so-there? response filed by the Antipodean midget has revealed that Gibson and Gibson actually separated three years ago, around the time of the whole alcohol/driving/Jew thing. People reports:
Last Thursday ? the day before Good Friday ? Robyn Gibson, 53, his wife of 28 years, signed divorce papers, seeking joint custody over their minor child, Thomas, 9, and spousal support…According to a response that [Mel] Gibson’s lawyer filed Monday afternoon, the couple have been officially separated since August 26, 2006
Unconfirmed reports suggest that Mrs Gibson’s cited reasons for divorce include ‘irreconcilable differences in finding it funny to paint one’s arse blue and shake it around at dinner parties’.
We were unable to contact her lawyer, Mordechai Sweetnips, for comment.
