Mel Gibson is kind of a d!ck. You never know who he’s going to offend next, which poses problems for his publicist, who’s gotta be working OT these days.
The actor’s longtime rep, Alan Nierob, came up with an explanation only slightly more believable than this weatherman’s for Mel’s recent interview gaffe.
At the end of a TV interview yesterday, Mel became annoyed over a Chicago reporter’s questions and, as he signed off, blatantly called him an a$$hole.
Or so we think, says his rep. Nierob claims he was “pulling faces” during the interview and Gibson called him the asshole, not that bastard TV reporter.
Never mind that Mel was still looking at the camera and the interview ended just seconds earlier. Just your standard off-screen client-publicist banter!
Good job, publicist! Way to cover for me, a$$hole!
Not a bad job by Nierob. If only we all had a PR “cleaner” to come up with bogus explanations and fire them off to media outlets every time we screwed up.
Sometimes they even try to claim paternity of your illegitimate children while you’re running for President of the United States, too. Right, Andrew Young?

Mel Gibson did not take too kindly to questioning from a Chicago TV reporter yesterday and hurled an insult at him once he thought the camera was off.
It was not.
A frustrated Mel was on WGN-TV promoting his new film, Edge of Darkness, but kept being hit with questions about … well, you knew it would come up.
Asked about his drunk, anti-Semitic rampage from 2006 and whether he thinks people view him differently, Mel grew increasingly annoyed via satellite.
After an awkward minute or so, the WGN reporter wrapped up the interview with the actor, told folks to see Mel’s movie, and that appeared to be that.
Until Mel, apparently thinking the interview was over, took a swig of his coffee and called the guy an “asshole.” Seriously. It’s amazing. Check it out:

Mel Gibson and his girlfriend, Oksana Grigorieva, were spotted on the red carpet at the premiere of Mel’s newest movie, Edge of Darkness, at the Palafox Cinema in Madrid, Spain yesterday.
Mel recently talked about the movie, in which he stars as homicide detective Thomas Craven who investigates the death of his activist daughter. He uncovers not only her secret life, but a corporate cover-up and government collusion that attracts an agent tasked with cleaning up the evidence.
Mel said: “The dark side of large companies is a particularly relevant theme now given what we’ve witnessed from large corporations and their participation in the economic crisis.”
Mel and Oksana, who is a Russian musician, have been together for a couple of years now and are parents to Mel’s eighth child, daughter Lucia, born this past October. Mel’s other seven kids were with his soon-to-be ex-wife Robyn, whom he married in 1980 and separated from in 2006.

After earning another $30 million domestically over the weekend, Avatar is still atop the box office chart, bringing its total to $594.5 million in 45 days.
The unstoppable film broke the record for the highest-grossing seventh weekend in release and is expected to surpass Titanic, James Cameron’s other box-office behemoth, as the film with highest domestic gross later this week.

As if his unrequited, unsolicited support for Tiger Woods weren’t strange enough, Mel Gibson tried (in vain) to defend his 2006 meltdown again this week.
Mel’s blatant anti-semitic rampage at the Malibu police station after his arrest for drunk driving became one of the top celebrity scandals of the decade.
But, while promoting his new movie, Edge of Darkness, Gibson said that people should just let it go. Which they might if he didn’t keep downplaying it.
“It’s said that I went into a rant, but I think it went on for about five words,” he said. “I was drunk. It just turned into a big thing. I apologized – not once, three times. So what’s the problem? It’s four years ago. Do I need to apologize again?”
For the record, it was most definitely a rant.

“F–king Jews… The Jews are responsible for all the wars in the world” is more than five words. The many times he called police officers “motherf*%ker” and “sugar t!ts” while proclaiming “I own Malibu” and trying to break $h!t also add up.
This isn’t to say Mel doesn’t deserve forgiveness. Sure he does. But we don’t get the feeling he thinks he was wrong in the first place, which might help.
Similar to the “he’s human” defense of Tiger, who slept with scads of women he wasn’t married to, the “I was drunk” defense doesn’t cut it here, Mel.
Amazingly, he should consider taking a page from the Michael Vick school of PR and profusely apologize, sincerely, until people simply get tired of it.

Tiger Woods should hire Mel Gibson as his personal PR guy.
For the second time in as many weeks, the actor has seen fit to run to the golfer’s aid, unprovoked. Tiger’s mistresses had better watch out, too, because it seems like Mel is developing serious feelings for the world’s #1 golfer.
“So, you know, I love the guy. He’s full of flaws, like all the rest of us. And he’s going through a rough time,” Gibson told Good Morning America Monday.
“I feel bad for the guy, I mean, they’re beating the hell out of him.”
Tiger may be in sex addiction rehab after balling more than a dozen waitresses while married and having two little kids, but to Mel, that’s easy to get past:
He’s only human, after all.
Mel Gibson loves talking about Tiger Woods for some reason.
“Ask any human being walking on the planet, ‘Have you ever done anything that you’re not proud of?’” the Edge of Darkness star posited. “And I think most people will say, ‘Yes. I’ve done a few things I’m not too proud of.’”
Well, yeah. But does that give you license to do whatever you want and say you’re only human after? Or make you immune from public criticism somehow?
Fortunately, Mel broke down the Tiger Woods scandal, in all its sordid and incredibly dubious detail, into one simple statement that no one can argue with:
“Jeez, I just want to watch him play golf. I want to see him swing a club, man.”
Okay, Mel, we’re with you on that. Ever since Thanksgiving, when Elin Woods did the swinging, we’ve missed Tiger on the links. Come back soon, man.
